Alexander grinned at her compliment. "Well, I have a good teacher," he said, referring to his mother.

Celine chuckled and shook her head. "I can't believe your mother made you do this."

"She's just looking out for you, Celine," Alexander said, leaning down to kiss her neck. "Besides, I don't mind doing it. I like taking care of you."

Celine's heart skipped a beat at his words. She had never met someone as caring and thoughtful as Alexander. As he continued to massage her, she felt herself slowly drifting off to sleep.

Eventually, Alexander finished the massage and helped Celine get dressed for bed. He then tucked her in and lay down beside her, wrapping his arms around her protectively. As they drifted off to sleep, Celine couldn't help but feel grateful for the man lying beside her.

I promise you that I will talk to Isabella and sort things out," Alexander said.Celine shook her head."No, Alexander, please don't. It's not necessary.

How are you feeling?"Celine rubbed her stomach and said, "I'm feeling good. A little tired, but that's to be expected, I suppose."Alexander nodded and said, "You should take it easy today.

    After freshening up, Alexander joined Celine for dinner. As they ate, Celine recounted her visit to the doctor and how she was told that she would give birth in two weeks. Alexander's fork stopped midway to his mouth as he looked at Celine in shock."Two weeks? That's so soon," he said.Celine nodded, taking a sip of water. "Yes, it is. But the doctor said everything is going well, so we don't have to worry too much."Alexander nodded, still in disbelief. "I can't believe it's almost time for our baby to arrive.

I'm so excited to meet our little one."Celine reached out to hold Alexander's hand. "Me too. I can't wait to see what he or she looks like and to hold them in my arms."They continued to talk abo

"Celine and I have a connection. And besides, we didn't plan for this to happen.""Sure, sure," Adam said, grinning. "I believe you. So, can I come over and see this woman who's made you fall in love?"Alexander let out a small laugh. "You're not going to let this go, are you?""Nope," Adam replied, still grinning. "I want to meet the woman who's turned the great Alexander Jameson into a softie."Alexander rolled his eyes again, but he couldn't help but feel a twinge of pride at Adam's words. He had always been seen as a playboy, but Celine had changed him in ways he never thought possible."Well, I'll have to ask Celine if she's up for visitors," Alexander said finally."Come on, man, don't be a buzzkill," Adam said, his grin fading slightly.
