Selina figured she'd better save him while she could, so she cut Jack off.
"Right, right—I get it. Calm down. Eat first."
Jack looked like he was about to cry with rage.
"You don't get it! Everything was planned perfectly, but someone wanted him back early! Said they missed him or whatever! So he squeezed us dry to rush home! Ma'am, tell me—who was it? WHO?!"
"If I ever find out, I'll teach her a lesson she won't forget!"
Jaxon's mouth twitched.
Logan curved his lips slightly and sauntered lazily down the stairs.
Selina cleared her throat twice, shooting Jaxon a desperate look to get Jack out of there.
Jack was oblivious.
"What's with you two, coughing all of a sudden? You sick or something?"
Jaxon tried to smooth things over, hinting gently: "Jack… didn't the boss also give you a full week off? And triple bonus pay? At least—"
