    “Who?” Charles asked, tapping on his desk.

    “Winter’s agent, Jane Gordon!” Ronald exined. “She used to work for Whitemoor Company, and


    she’s not too happy with Winter. Now that Winter’s cut ties with Whitemoor, Jane didn’t stick with


    her!”


    Charles revealed a small smile and lifted an eyebrow telling Ronald to go on. Ronald nodded and


    said, “The folks at Whitemoor Company found out that Royal Star Entertainment wants Winter, so


    they agreed to let Winter go. Whitemoor didn’t say much about Jane. I figured that since she used to


    be Winter’s agent, why not keep her on? She knows Winter better than anyone else!”


    “Go ahead with handling these smaller matters,” Charles said.


    “Will do!” Ronald could tell Charles was happy with his n. “Oh, and there’s something else.”


    Charles frowned and gestured for him to continue. “What is it?”


    “It’s about Madam’s old ce…” Ronald hesitated. “She never gave it up, so thendlord’s been


    holding onto it. It wasn’t a problem, buttely… Well…”


    Charles’s frown deepened, and he looked a bit upset.


    Ronald cleared his throat and got to the point. “Thendlord called me today asking about Madam. I


    had a hunch, so I warned him about this before. He said someone’s been hanging around her ce


    a lottely!”


    Ronald was being subtle, but Charles was quick to catch on. “What exactly did he say?”


    “He didn’t say much. He just asked if Madam had made any enemiestely. He snapped a picture


    and wondered if he should call the cops next time.” Handing the photo to Charles, Ronald watched


    his


    reaction.


    Charles took a quick look. His eyes were icy, but he smirked. “We definitely should call the police.


    Creepy strangers hanging around our house is a job for the cops. We pay them to keep us safe,


    right?”


    Charles sounded as cool as a cucumber, but Ronald got the message: Charles was pissed off.


    Xavier had dumped Noelle to chase money. Even though he had Winter now, he just could not


    leave Noelle alone. Ronald had no respect for that kind of guy.


    “I’ve already filled in thendlord,” Ronald said, thinking Xavier must have a death wish to mess with


    Noelle. “And there’s more…” He wiped his forehead, feeling overwhelmed with today’s news.


    Charles was getting antsy. “Just tell me everything!”


    “Madam’s mom stopped by Madam’s ce. It looks like she didn’t find Madam, so she left. But she


    left a storm behind, saying some nasty stuff about Madam!”


    Charles’s gaze turned stormy. “Got it.”


    Ronald hesitated. It was Noelle’s mom, after all. No matter how bad she was, she was still her


    mom.


    He was not sure how to handle this.

    “When’s Xavier and Winter’s wedding?” Charles blurted out, catching Ronald off guard. Ronald


    blinked and said, “Uh… I don’t think Xavier has nned that yet.”


    “Well, let’s get him nning, and get them married right away,” Charles said, a bit annoyed. Just


    then, a knock came from the door, and soon after, Noelle peeked in. “Are you still working? Sorry,
