    “Thank you, Miss Moore, for your help.


    ” Winston cast his gaze downward, following Hannah.


    He longed to express his gratitude, but words escaped him.


    His past, shadowed by the presence of Wace, had rendered him reserved, often at a loss for words to convey his emotions.


    “There’s no need for thanks,” Hannah said with a detached tone.


    “You’re working for me now.


    It’s my responsibility to look out for your interests.

    ”


    Bryson chuckled, effortlessly snatching the cuff link mid-air.


    “It’s impossible to stop me here.


    ”


    Hannah shrugged and demanded, “Hand over the cuff Link.


    ”


    “Isn’t this for me?” Bryson held the cufflink in his hand, sying his fingers in a star shape as he presented it to Hannah.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    Hannah extended her hand to retrieve it, but Bryson, with a subtle twist, ensnared her wrist and drew her into an unexpected embrace.


    Suddenly, seizing the moment, Hannah raised her arm and swatted away the cufflink in Bryson’s hand.

    “It’s a virtual ount.

    “What’s your n?” Bryson inquired, turning to face her.
