Everyone turned their heads in unison, looking at the person who was speaking.
It was Jalen.
He had dark circles under his eyes, and his face was full of irritation.
Jake looked shocked. "You're her husband?"
"Of course not," Jalen sneered. "If her husband were a real man and knew you were bullying her here, he'd definitely come to fight you! How could he possibly stand by and do nothing?"
Jake was speechless.
He forced himself to stand up despite the pain, glaring at Jalen. "I want to transfer her to my group."
"No way," Jalen firmly said. "People in my team aren't under your control."
His arrogance was still the same, but in Keira's eyes, it was now more acceptable.
Jake asked in confusion, "She's here because of nepotism. Don't you hate such things the most?"
