Lawrence beamed with pride. “You bet! Withon the case, how could it not work out?”
Jessica approached Jacob and whispered something in his ear.

her eyes sparkling with teasing amusement as she looked at Lawrence.
After a quick goodbye, Lawrence and Jacob wandered off together.
As they walked, Lawrence leaned in, whispering to Jacob. “What did she say to you?”
“Nothing special.” Jacob shot him a sideways glance, his calm usual self back, with just a hint of distance.
“Really?” Lawrence asked, his curiosity piqued.
“Yeah, nothing special,” Jacob said plainly, his tone steady.
“No way, her last look was pure gossip,” Lawrence pressed, his eyes scanning Jacob's face. “It has to be related
to what she said to you in secret, doesn’t it?”
Jacob settled outside their tent, relaxed. “Trust me, you don’t want to know.”
“How do you know what | want?” Lawrence pressed, not letting it go. “Spill it.”
Jacob's face stayed calm as he spoke. “She secretly askedif you are the softer side of this pair.”
Lawrence jumped up, stunned. “Softer side? No way—I’m the one in charge.”

“Hold on, I'm talking to her,” Lawrence said, determined to set things straight.
“It won't change a thing,” Jacob replied coolly, unfazed. “The more you explain, the more it sounds like you're
hiding something.”
“Hiding what?” Lawrence shot back, defending his pride.
“Isn't it obvious?” Jacob raised an eyebrow, his gaze steady but intense.
Lawrence sighed, throwing up his hands. “Fine, you're the boss at home. Whatever you say.”
In his mind, though, he was already planning. He'd let Jacob have this one for now, but later, in private, he'd
show him who was calling the shots.
Nearby, Felipe sat with Farrah, watching the happy couple, his thoughts swirling.
