    “I have a short temper, Mr. Duffy. I strongly advise against trying to shortchange me.

    Feeling bold, he stepped forward and touched Alexis’ cor, suggesting, “If Miss Fowler is open to it, we could discuss this privately. Those two hundred million might still be up for negotiation.” He had long harbored a desire for her.


    Just as Leonel was about to intervene, Alexis looked down at the unwee hand on her cor and chuckled.

    Alexis prodded him with the cue.


    “Write a check now, or those incriminating photos of yours will be all over the Inte in no time.” Colin red at her with indignation, silently cursing her.
