Jamie’s face hardens the moment he realizes what happened: another man kissed Claire. The truth lands like a blow, and his first instinct is raw protectiveness. “He kissed me,” Claire admits, trying to keep her voice steady, but Jamie does not hear it as a joke. He asks whether she liked it, and the answer is immediate and honest: no. Not at Tom Christie’s expense. That distinction matters to both of them, because Jamie’s anger is not only about jealousy — it is also about the fact that Claire was touched against her will.
