Chapter 15 I Owe You One I had yet to say a word but Jeremiah and Jack were already so eager to label me as unfaithful .
This was a rare moment of unity between them .
Before I could speak / Eric chuckled coldly and voiced what exactly was on my mind , When Jane was pushed down the stairs , you all failed to notice and care for her .
I had just reached out to steady her , yet youre this eager to throw accusations around .
Anyone would think shes your enemy from the way youre acting .
It must be tough on her to be family with people as blind and heartless as you all are .
Eric glanced at me with eyes full of sympathy .
I chuckled softly .
His sharp tongue would never disappoint .
Sure enough , his words rendered the others silent Elsas expression turned especially sour .
She forced a smile and hastily explained , I didnt mean to push Jane .
I just lost my footing ; it was just an accident .
She could barely get through a complete sentence before her eyes reddened .
She looked pitifully wronged .
Jeremiah and Jack hurried to comfort her .
Once she was pacified , Jeremiah turned back to glare / at Eric .
What are you doing here this late at night ? he demanded .
Before Eric could answer , I walked over and leaned into his arms .
What else could a man and woman be doing alone at night ? The room fell into a suffocating silence .
Eric stiffened as he stared down at me in shock .
I gave him a wink and silently begged him to cooperate with my act .
Since Jeremiah and Jack were here and my earlier plan to expose Elsa had failed , I on a different show .
gured Id put If they were so keen on believing I had an unusual relationship with Eric , Id let them be .
Jeremiah wanted to accuse me of what I had never done, so Id make sure to disgust him .
Eric quickly caught on .
He wrapped an arm around my waist and smiled knowingly .
Thats right .
What else would we be doing alone at night ? Jeremiahs veins bulged in fury , He clenched his teeth and spat , Jane , how dare you cheat on me ? You shameless witch ! He charged toward me as if he had lost all rationality .
It seemed as if hed go violent .
Eric moved swiftly to shield me behind him .
His expression darkened , and his gaze was icy .

212 The chilling look in his eyes froze Jeremiah in his tracks .
I stepped out from behind Eric with a smirk and retorted , Right back at you .
Ive never said a word about all your scandals .
At least I havent done anything to embarrass you in public .
Most of Jeremiahs scandals were tied to Elsa .
It was clear to everyone who I was referring to .
Jeremiahs expression turned ugly .
Jack opened his mouth to defend Jeremiah and Elsa , but I cut him off , Its late , and I need to rest .
Get out , all of you , or Ill call the police for trespassing .
I had no interest in dragging things out further .
Just looking at their faces made my stomach churn in disgust .
I called for security to escort all three of them out along with the items Elsa had brought .

Once the door was shut , I finally had peace .
Eric sat on the couch and looked at me in amusement .
Closing the door at this hour isnt a great look .
Now that its just the two of us , people might get the wrong idea .
I stumbled slightly and almost lost my balance .
I sat across from him , glaring at him , Cant you be serious for once ? Eric had many good qualities , but his sharp tongue could offend anyone .
Of course , he had the privilege of not having to care about such things as a Flint .
With a sigh , I said in a serious tone , Still , thank you for what you did earlier .
Sorry for dragging you into this mess and tarnishing your reputation .
I owe you one .
