CHAPTER 135
~Neil's POV~
Andy asked something, but I didn't hear it. Instead, I thanked him.
"Thanks for your hard work. I'll take it from here."
I ended the call and turned, walking back toward the others. As soon as the bright lights from the chandelier hit my face, my eyes immediately locked on hers.
Spring looked up from her seat on the couch.
And I smiled softly, genuinely, because in my head several thoughts and plans were being concocted.
"Now, I want you exclusively as mine even more."

~Spring's POV~
Neil stepped back into the living room, the sound of his shoes echoing faintly against the floor.
His expression was relaxed, even pleasant, as if he hadn't just disappeared to take a suspicious call.
His gaze locked on mine like he had never looked away.
And that smile.
It wasn't just the flirtatious curl of his lips anymore. It was possessive, too calculated to be charming.
