George thought he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes, but he still saw Nox and Alexander standing together. His jaw went slack. It almost felt like Alexander was the servant, while Nox was his master.Nox and Alexander made small talk, and Alexander left, while Nox went into the residence. George was starting to get uneasy as Nox came closer.He wondered, 'How'd he come back so soon? Didn't the Joshtons capture him? Did Alexander save him? But that's not right. How did he know the richest man of Riverton? Wait, did Queenie ask Alexander for help?'A light bulb lit up in George's head. He thought, 'I bet it is.' He thought his daughter must've begged Alexander to save Nox, and he got all proud and important. He mused, 'My daughter's awesome.'Nox saw George, and he said, "Hello, Mr. Sanders."George harrumphed. With mockery, he said, "Oh, you're released fast. Not bad."Nox smiled, but he said nothing."Greenshade, was that Alexander Weeks who took you back?"Nox didn't expec

Nox couldn't tell Queenie he did kill Silas. She was just a civilian, and the truth would scare her.Just like that, the Joshtons' fiasco was over, but Queenie couldn't understand why Nox was released for no reason. She thought the Joshtons actually did it out of the kindness of their hearts. She came out of Nox's room and felt a lot brighter.George appeared all of a sudden. "Queenie.""Dad? Why are you here?" Queenie asked curiously."Come here, Queenie. We need to talk," said George mysteriously."About what?""Just come over and you'll find out." George beckoned at his daughter.Queenie really wanted to know, so she followed her father into the courtyard. She asked, "What is it, Dad?"George looked at Nox's room and asked, "Queenie, tell me. How did the talk with Alexander go?""What talk? What are you talking about, Dad?" Queenie was speechless."You think you can keep it a secret? You're dating Alexander, aren't you?"Queenie couldn't believe it. "What are you saying,

Queenie answered, "I'm telling you, I know he likes me. No other explanation for his helping me all the time. And he gave me a diamond worth billions on the ball a few days ago. Do you have any idea how expensive that thing is, Nono?"A frown furrowed Nox's forehead. He mused, 'Well, damn. All I wanted was for Alex to be nice to Queenie, and she thinks he likes her. Guess he'll have to come up with an explanation.'Queenie thought Nox was silent because of the mention of the billion-dollar diamond. She quickly said, "Are you mad because someone gave me a diamond that expensive, Nono? Don't worry, I'm not that superficial."She said, "The diamond was pretty, but I didn't care about it. I gave it back to Alexander." She held Nox's hand. "I won't dump you. I know you lost your memories and might only be a mechanic, but it's alright. Nothing's more valuable than genuine feelings."She continued, "You attracted me, so I'm not going to dump you, not even for the richest man in this city.

The mention of Queenie made Alexander speechless. He knew his daughter was smart, and now she found out who the lady was. Alexander just wanted to say this was a big mistake."Annie, you don't understand. I—"He was about to explain, but then a secretary came in. "Mr. Weeks, someone wants to see you."Alexander asked, "Who is it?""A lady by the name of Queenie Sanders."The mention of that name horrified Alexander, but Annie put on a cryptic smile. She thought, 'Speak of the devil.'Alexander felt awkward, but he had no choice. Queenie was his lord's partner. He would never show her any discourtesy. Quickly, he told the secretary, "Bring her in.""Of course," said the secretary.After the secretary was gone, Alexander told Annie, "Annie, it's not what you think. Whatever you're thinking, it's not it. Ms. Sanders is—"Annie interrupted, "It's alright, Dad. I'd love to see who the lady is. It's remarkable that my father would give her a billion-dollar diamond right after he saw

Ever since the Battle of the Ten Nations, the people of Faeast thought Nox was dead, but he was actually alive.Alexander smiled dryly. He mused, 'You've already seen Lord Nox, my dear child. You just didn't realize it.' He wouldn't tell Annie that, of course.Annie winked at her father. "Take me along tomorrow, Dad.""And why should I do that?" Alexander rolled his eyes.Annie held her father's arm and started acting cute. "Aw, please, just this once, Daddy? I promise I'll just stay quiet and have my lunch. Please, Daddy?"Alexander could never resist this, so he said, "Fine, fine.""Thanks, Dad. I'll get back to work now," Annie said happily, and she left her father's office.Alexander saw Annie off, and he shook his head, smiling dryly.Nox was back at home, and Alexander called him. He picked it up. "Yes?""Milord. There is emergency news that I must let you know. Ms. Sanders has met me, and—"Before he could finish, Nox said, "She arranged for a lunch meetup, did she not
