" Professionally , I've made myself clear , " she replied firmly . " Personally , your confession means nothing to me . We're adults -words don't sway business . But for now , I want no ties with you , personal or professional . " Anthony's smile became strained . " Good thing we're alone , " he attempted to joke . " Otherwise , I'd be completely humiliated . " Caroline didn't want unnecessary tension . Supreme Sword's future remained uncertain - if they ever truly needed Anthony's help , today's harsh words could come back to haunt them . After a moment's consideration , she softened . " Thank you , anyway . " Anthony brightened . " Then will you mind if I join your celebration ? " Of course , she minded .

" Caroline instinctively recoiled from the contact . " Just a headache - probably from standing in the wind too long . " " I'll take you to the hospital , " Anthony offered . " Alright , " Caroline agreed , fighting to suppress a smirk . Yet , they'd barely taken a few steps when a Bentley cut them off . Caleb emerged from the back seat , his expression thunderous as he took in the scene - particularly Anthony's hand on Caroline's waist .

" Not for much longer , " Caroline shot back , rubbing her arm . Caleb's face turned livid . Unwilling to give Anthony more ammunition , he thrust a stack of documents at her . " Sign these ! " Caroline skimmed them and smirked . Another attempt to acquire Supreme Sword . Seeing her playful expression , Caleb frowned , " The offer is generous . Two billion dollars isn't pocket change . Don't let our personal issues cloud your judgment . " Anthony immediately grasped Caleb's intent and sneered . Caroline shook her head with feigned regret and tossed the documents back . " Too late .

" Caroline , you won't regret choosing us . " Understanding dawned on Caleb's face . " Stupid , " he spat , fixing Caroline with a contemptuous glare . " Garcia Group's offer is nothing compared to mine . Save yourself the trouble and declare Supreme Sword bankrupt now . " " Mr. Martin , " Anthony cut in , " resorting to personal attacks when you can't compete? How rude . " The more Caleb fumed , the more Anthony preened . Caroline found their posturing both amusing and exhausting . Her stomach growled , reminding her that her team was waiting . She turned to leave . Yet , Caleb grabbed her arm . " Show me the contract . " " What ? " " The contract you signed with the Garcia Group . " Caroline laughed , slapping his hand away , " Please, Mr. Martin .

" As your husband , I have a right to see that contract . " Caroline regarded him with contempt . Now he remembered he was her husband ? Too late . Too irritated to argue , she shoved past him . " I was messing with you . I didn't want to give the project to anyone , but I've changed my mind . Whoever impresses me most gets Supreme Sword . " Caleb scoffed , " Dream on ! " Using the project to manipulate me ? She's overestimating herself . " Really ? " Anthony perked up . Caroline nodded . " What do you need me to do ? " he asked eagerly . His flexibility startled her. She pointed at the scowling Caleb . " Drive him away , then leave yourself . Don't disturb my dinner. " 5/8 09:43 Chapter 25 Had Enough With that , she walked away . Anthony approached Caleb . " Come now , Mr. Martin , don't embarrass yourself . Shall we leave together ? " Caleb looked at him , clearly grossed out . " Someone else is embarrassing himself . As long as she and I are married , Supreme Sword will never be yours . " Anthony's smile faded . " Caleb , I've had enough of you . " 12 min leit With that , he swung a punch , knowing he was outmatched but putting everything into it . The blow caught Caleb's face , making him see stars .

" You think I only want Supreme Sword ? Everything around you the game , Caroline , all of it - will be mine sooner or later . " At Caroline's name , Caleb's suppressed fury exploded .
