"Madam, do you want to have breakfast?" The cook asked gently, with a careful voice as she glanced at Jessica lounging in Jacob’s favorite chair, her expression unreadable as always.

Jessica let out an annoyed sigh, waving her hand lazily.

"Serve it..." she said, while scrolling through her mobile,

"Madam, young master Jacob didn't have his breakfast yet," the maid was still saying, Jessica snapped at her, "so what? What should I do if he doesn't eat? He isn't a kid for me to do a job of nanny, if not now he'll eat when he is hungry, so get lost from here and stop annoying me."

Listening to that, the maid left from there, and whispered, "Look at her attitude, she isn't even bothered about him eating or starving himself, yet she says that she loves our young master more than Ms. Ivory."

Chirp...."The early morning soft sunrays made their way to the bedroom, and outside the window, birds chirped in chorus, and the dew still clung to the petals of the roses in the balcony.Ivory stirred first.Slowly, she opened her eyes to the warm embrace of the sun, and as she turned her head slightly, her gaze fell upon the sleeping figure beside her, Alexander, peaceful and calm. His features, usually serious and intense, were soft in sleep, a small smile formed at the corner of her lips.Carefully, she slipped out from under the duvet, trying not to wake him. Last night memories were still fresh in her mind, to keep her company just because she is scared of thunders, he stayed awake entire night by her side.That gentle and warm gesture of him made her feel safe and happy around him.Without making a sound, she walked on her toes and disappeared into the hallway.The grand kitchen of the manor was quiet, but not for long.

The loud horns of cars, but none reached my ears.The sound of the car door shutting behind me echoed louder than usual, but I didn't care.I didn’t bother greeting the chauffeur or even glancing at the glass towers I used to walk into with pride. Today, they didn’t feel like mine.They felt like reminders of everything I began to lose.I climbed into the backseat, loosening the tie around my neck. My head was pounding, not just from the headache that started after the conference, but from that name.Ivory.Again.Her name kept circling in my mind like a regret I couldn’t escape.The way Alexander looked so composed, confident, and completely at peace during the meeting… it burnt my heart.The boardroom was filled with tension, the kind that came when competitors clashed head-on.

    ∆ALEXANDER POV∆"Do you think you deserve to live?" My knuckles collided with his jaw before I even heard myself curse.The crack was satisfying. Not just because of the force, but because it silenced him. The smirk wiped clean off his arrogant face, replaced by blood and the stunned realization that someone wasn’t afraid of him.My blood boiled just after knowing this man dared to hurt my Ivory, how can I even allow him to live after what he has done to her?Gasps echoed through the restaurant, champagne glasses froze mid-air, whispers rippled around like wildfire, but I didn’t care.I don't care, because he dared to touch her and he deserves to die.All I saw was him, the bastard who dared to lay a hand on my woman, the fear in Ivory's eyes after seeing him, the woman on whose face I wanted nothing but a smile, but she cried, and looked scared, it's all because of that damn man.He stumbled back, crashing into a table behind him.
