"Get your *ss here,” Jay reprimanded in a commanding tone as he watched her stand beside Sean.
Rose shivered and obediently walked to stand in front of him.
There was no other choice. This devil incarnate held the future of Severe Enterprises in his hand.
The Grand Old Master questioned menacingly, "Rose, which exactly of these two men do you love?"
Rose glanced fearfully at Jay, then turned to look hopelessly at Sean.
Choosing any one of them meant she would undoubtedly offend the other.
She could not offend Jay, but she did not want to offend Sean as well.
"Grand Old Master Ares, I don't believe I have the right to choose," Rose answered.
"It's alright, tell me who you love. I'll have your back," the Grand Old Master said reassuringly.
"You'd better think twice before answering, Rose," Jay whispered. He might as well have reminded her about the screenplay contract with The Moonlit Sky!
Having always lived with the motto 'to go with the flow
Rose immediately decided on Jay after his blatant threat.
"I love Sir Ares!” She clenched her jaw.
Instead of displaying any emotional outbursts, Sean smiled lightly.
"Congratulations." Sean reached out a hand to Rose.
Rose reached out to shake it only to see Jay's piercing gaze burning holes into both their hands.
Rose retracted her hand.
Suspended mid-air, Sean took his hand back to scratch the wings of his nose awkwardly.
