Charmaine moved silently across the room. When Rex glanced back casually and saw her, he was so startled that he fell straight to the floor with a thud.

"D"mn! A ghost!"

Charmaine pulled down her mask and shot him an exasperated look. "It's me."

"Boss?"

Rex patted his chest, still shaken. "You nearly scared me to death! I was wondering how someone could sneak into my office without a sound!"

"What are you looking at? You didn't even hear me come in."

Rex blurted out instinctively, "Nothing! I was just wondering why you're fine standing up here when you were freaking out on the Ferris wheel ... "

"Ferris wheel?" Charmaine narrowed her eyes suspiciously.

Realizing he had slipped up, Rex clamped a hand over his mouth. "No..."

But it was too late. Charmaine had already put the pieces together. She narrowed her eyes dangerously. "Okay, it looks like the company has been a little too relaxed lately if you've got this much free time to follow me around."

At this point, Rex decided there was no point in pretending. Instead, he doubled down, crossing his arms and firing back, "I'm just looking out for you so you don't get fooled by some sc*mbag. You said we'd be best -friends for life, but you went and started dating someone behind our backs! Do you even know how worried

I've been these past few days?"

There was real concern in his voice.

Charmaine blinked, then obediently lowered her head. “Alright, I was wrong. I shouldn't have kept it from you guys. I just wanted to wait for the right time to make it public. But now that you already know..."

She trailed off, watching as Rex's expression softened slightly, his eagerness barely concealed as he waited for her to spill the name.

Looks like he still doesn't know it's Emyr.

Charmaine suddenly switched gears. "Then I guess I won't say anything after all."

Rex was completely dumbfounded. She wasn't playing by the rules at all. Realizing he'd been tricked, he ground his teeth in frustration. "Can we have a serious conversation for once?"

Charmaine feigned innocence. "You already know, so what else is there to say?"

Rex was so frustrated he nearly coughed up blood. He stomped his foot in exasperation. “I didn't see anything! I followed you two that night, and I was this close to getting a look, but something kept interrupting me every single time! And I still haven't been able to track down that car's owner!"

"Forget it, forget it!" Rex threw up his hands. "I thought about it all day and figured it out. There are only a handful of people in Eragos powerful enough to keep their identity hidden from me. It has to be someone from one of the elite families. As long as it's not that loser Daniel, that playboy from the Carters, or either of the Cross brothers, I don't care!"

Charmaine's eyes flickered. "I get why you'd say Daniel, but the other three..."

Rex started counting them off on his fingers. "Shawn and Kane are notorious womanizers. They change partners like clothes, and they've dated practically every socialite in Eragos. There's no way you'd go for them. As for Emyr? No!" The last part he said with absolute certainty.

"Why not him?" Charmaine's voice sharpened. "Just because he's not in great health, you're prejudiced against him?"

There was a slight edge to her tone. She couldn't help but feel defensive on Emyr's behalf.

Rex looked indignant. "How could I possibly judge him for that? I had someone look into them last night, and guess what? Turns out Emyr's been getting cozy with a young maid. They're suspiciously close, and apparently, that maid is a student at Eragos University. The only reason Cross Group is even accepting interns from that school now is because of her!"

He clicked his tongue, shaking his head in disbelief. He was so caught up in his gossip that he completely missed the way Charmaine suddenly dropped her gaze, looking guilty.

Still oblivious, he continued ranting, "All these years, there's never been a single scandal around Emyr. I used to respect him for being a decent guy, but now? Turns out he's just playing around behind the scenes! Even his maid isn't off— limits. How is a guy like that worthy of you? Boss, why are you looking down? Did you drop something?"

Charmaine tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear, thankful for the special- effects makeup on her face that kept Rex from noticing her expression. "Nothing, I thought I saw something."

She cleared her throat. “Maybe there's a misunderstanding. You did say Emyr has always been disciplined. He wouldn't mess around like that."

Rex scoffed, shaking his head knowingly. “That's where you're wrong. The more someone represses their true nature, the more explosive they are when they

finally let loose. And Emyr? He's always given off the vibe of a wild beast waiting to break free."
