"I've been terribly insulted today, bullied by sbrash young girl, and you need to defend my honor!" Her noisy complaints shattered the brief silence.

From a distance, Xanthea could feel the chill emanating from him. She licked her lips nervously-had he believed Judy's nonsense? Whether he believed it or not, Judy was still a family member of a board member of Lockwood Group. Given her husband's senior position, it was logical for Orion to protect them. Since he had stepped forward to handle the situation, Xanthea was prepared to give him an explanation.
