With their lunch finished, Alexander paid the bill while Kate waited by his side. They left the restaurant hand-in-hand, feeling content and happy with their time together.As they made their way to the car, Alexander opened the door for Kate and helped her inside before walking around to the driver's side.

"Hey Caleb," Olivia greeted him warmly. "Are you ready to find something nice to wear?"Caleb nodded eagerly. "Definitely. I hope this place met my fashion standard, so I could use all the help I can get," he admitted, feeling a bit self-conscious.Olivia laughed. "Don't worry, we'll find something perfect for you," she reassured him.As they walked into the boutique, they were greeted by the soft glow of chandeliers and the sight of racks on racks of clothing. The air was filled with the scent of perfume and the sound of soft music playing in the background."Nice, this place is fancy, I hope they have high qualities too," Caleb remarked, feeling a bit out of place.Olivia smiled reassuringly. "Don't worry, we'll find something that suits you," she said, leading him toward the men's section of the store.As they browsed through the racks, Olivia held up different shirts and jackets, asking for Caleb's opinion on each one. They chatted and laughed as they searched for the perfect outf
Alexander and Kate arrived at the luxurious five-star hotel, which served as the venue for the Hamilton Corporation's 10th-anniversary celebration. They pulled up in one of Alexander's sleek and exotic cars, catching the attention of onlookers as they made their way inside.As they entered the hall, Kate's eyes widened in amazement at the stunning decorations. The room was filled with elegant floral arrangements, sparkling chandeliers, and luxurious furnishings. The air was filled with the soft scent of roses and the sound of lively music playing in the background.Alexander took hold of Kate's hand as they stood amongst the other guests, admiring the lavish decorations of the hall. Suddenly Ava caught sight of Alexander Sterling from across the room. She quickly stood up from her seat and made her way towards him, her eyes locked onto his figure. As she approached, she observed that Alexander was in the company of a lady, but she didn't care who she was to Alexander. Ava was determi
"I understand your concern, Kate," Caleb said, his tone serious. "But I trust Alexander. He really likes you, and he knows how to handle himself."Despite Caleb's attempts to reassure her, Kate remained deeply skeptical of the nature of Ava and Alexander's relationship.Ava's hand remained intertwined with Alexander's as she led him toward a group of distinguished foreign company owners and CEOs. As they approached the first table, Ava turned to Alexander and whispered, "These are some very important people, Alexander. Just be yourself and let your charm do the talking."With a reassuring smile, Alexander nodded and followed Ava's lead as she introduced him to the group. "Good evening, gentlemen. I'd like to introduce you to the one and only Alexander Sterling, the brilliant mind behind the Sterling E-Drive car."The foreign company owners and CEOs looked up in surprise and admiration. One of them exclaimed, "Alexander Sterling! We've been trying to meet you in person for ages. Your w
As Ava announced Alexander's name, he froze in his seat with surprise. He never expected her to publicly acknowledge him as someone important in her life.As Ava mentioned Alexander's name, Kate's attention was immediately drawn to the stage. Kate's gaze was immediately drawn to the stage where Ava stood. After a moment, she turned her attention towards Alexander's seat.Feeling a mix of emotions, Kate turned to Olivia and Caleb, who were seated beside her. "Did you hear that?" she asked, her voice filled with surprise.Olivia and Caleb turned to her, their mouths agape with shock. "Yes, we heard," Olivia replied, her eyes wide with amazement. "I had no idea that Alexander was so important to Ava."Caleb nodded in agreement, his expression thoughtful. "It seems that Alexander has made quite an impression on her," he said.Kate felt a sense of envy creeping up within her.Feeling a mix of emotions, Alexander hesitated for a moment before Ava's voice broke through his thoughts. "Come to
Alexander shifted uncomfortably in his seat, feeling the tension between them growing with each passing moment. "I know you're angry with me, and I understand why. But I want you to know that I care about you and I don't want to lose you." Kate finally turned her head to look at him, her expression softening slightly. "You've been spending a lot of time with Ava since we came here. It makes me feel like I'm not important to you." Alexander reached out to take Kate's hand, but she quickly pulled it away. "Kate, I promise you that you're still the most important person in my life. Ava is just a friend, nothing more." Kate sighed, her shoulders slumping slightly. "I want to believe you, Alexander. But I need time to process everything that's been going on for minutes now." Alexander nodded understandingly. "I get it. Take all the time you need. I'll be here when you're ready to talk." As the anniversary celebration came to an end, the guests began to leave the venue. Alexander and K
As Alexander stepped off the elevator, he made his way to his office. His secretary, Steven, quickly got up from his seat and informed Alexander that Ava Hamilton was waiting for him in his office. Alexander felt a sense of unease wash over him. "Ava? Why is she here?" he asked himself, his mind racing with possibilities. When Alexander entered his office, he saw Ava sitting on his sofa, elegantly crossing her legs. "Hello Alexander," she said with a warm smile."Hello Ava, it's good to see you. Did you have a good time at your Dad's corporation Anniversary after I left?" Alexander asked."Yes, it was great. But actually, that's not why I'm here," Ava replied, her tone becoming more serious. "I came to talk to you about something important."Alexander furrowed his brows, wondering what could be so important that Ava would come to his office unannounced. "Sure, what is it?" he asked, taking a seat across from her."I want us to hang out, Alexander. You and me," Ava said, her eyes mee
There was a moment of stunned silence on the other end of the line before Olivia let out a low whistle. "Wow, Kate. Things are really heating up between you two, huh?"Kate couldn't help but laugh at her friend's enthusiasm, even though she still felt a sense of uncertainty. "I don't know about that, Olivia. It's just... I don't know."Olivia's tone became more serious. "What do you mean? Do you feel like you're rushing into things?"Kate took a deep breath before responding. "I don't know if it's rushing, exactly. But sometimes it feels like we're moving too fast, you know?"Olivia's voice was sympathetic. "I get it, girl. But sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and see where it takes you."Kate nodded, even though Olivia couldn't see her. "I know, and I want to trust him. I just don't want to get hurt."Olivia's tone was reassuring. "I know you don't, Kate. But you've got this. And if anyone can make it work, it's you and Alexander."Kate smiled again, feeling a sense of
