Michael's words stayed in the room longer than anticipated as Jude looked at the two of them carefully
Jude felt Michael said those words like someone he had known very closely for years
The fact that he knew how to talk to Scarlett and how she would react messed with Jude's head because he had spent ten years married to Scarlett and he knew when she was pretending not to care, when she really cared, and when she didn't care
And right now, it felt like she was hiding something because Scarlett avoided Michael's eyes briefly before she looked back at the documents on her table
"Can we now actually focus on the problem instead of talking about my personality?", she asked coldly
Michael leaned back slightly against the chair as he let out a faint smile
"Fine", he said as he tapped the tablet on the table lightly
Then he took a brief pause to look at Jude and then back at her
