Shaun said Chelsea wasn’t his girlfriend .
Halsey froze , staring at him . “ That’s impossible . She said she was
Shaun smiled . “ Who do you believe – me or her ? ”
She shook her head , uncertain .
Shaun’s feelings were always hard to read – she had learned that lesson three years ago .
“ If she isn’t your girlfriend , then why has she been by your side all these years ? Why should I believe you just because you say there’s nothing between you two ? ”
Shaun laughed , a little bitter . He wrapped his arms around Halsey’s soft waist , pulling her close . “ What do you really think of me ? Do you think I’m a liar ? A guy who won’t admit I’m seeing someone ? ”
Halsey pushed him away gently . “ I don’t want to talk about this right now . I have things to do . Please let me go ! ”
All she wanted now was to save Lincoln Enterprise .
Shaun didn’t loosen his grip . Instead , he led her over to his luxury car . “ Get in . ”
Halsey hesitated . “ I told you , I have things to take care of- ”
“ Do you not want to find that worker ? ”
Her slender eyelashes fluttered . “ You knew ? ”
Shaun nodded . “ Get in . I’m taking you to find him . ”
He opened the passenger door and gently pushed her inside . Then , he slid into the driver’s seat and reached or seatbelt .
“ Do you know where that worker is ? ” Halsey asked .

“ Everyone’s looking for him right now . They’ve practically turned the entire Capital upside down . He’s definitely hiding somewhere no one would think to look , the one place nobody suspects … The construction site where he fell , ” Shaun said .
Halsey blinked in surprise . She had thought of that place , too .
After the worker’s fall , the site had been shut down temporarily . No one would expect he was hiding there .
She hadn’t expected Shaun to think the same .
“ Hang tight . ”
Shaun hit the gas , speeding toward the construction site .
Soon , the luxury car pulled up outside the sealed – off site . Shaun opened the door , and Halsey stepped out .
“ Let’s check it out . ”
Shaun took her hand .
She tried to pull away . “ Let go ! ”
He tightened his grip on her hand , holding it firmly in his palm . “ Be good . Don’t cause trouble . ”
Those simple , commanding words melted Halsey’s resistance instantly .
Back when he was Dwight , she had always listened to him . Now , as Shaun , a rising business star , she found it even harder to say no . He had become more and more commanding .
