Chapter 40: Rez is missing

Rachel wasted no time and sent Serena a list of property listings the next morning. She even arranged for a professional real estate agent to accompany her. Serena set the appointment for 11 a.m. After spending some time playing fetch with Rex in the yard, she prepared to head out.The real estate agent greeted her warmly. "Miss Morales, this area is quiet, with a mix of townhouses and villas. It has a low population density, great amenities, and a serene environment—perfect for young professionals like yourself."As they toured the property, Serena noticed another agent leading a couple nearby. Her heart skipped a beat when she realized it was Alfonso and Araminta.They hadn’t noticed her yet, but Araminta’s voice carried across the quiet courtyard."Josh wants to live in a villa,” Araminta said, her tone laced with pride. “There’s one here for fourteen million. He’s interested, so I brought Alfonso to take a look."Alfonso, ever the doting husband, smiled indulgently. "If he likes i

Chapter 41: Miss Alvarez, why is your dog here?

Rex’s white, fluffy figure darted around the parking lot, barking loudly. A couple and their young child, passing by on their way to a nearby office building, were startled. The little girl jumped in fright and burst into tears.“What’s wrong with you people?” the woman snapped, pulling her child protectively behind her. Her glare was aimed squarely at Alexander, who was standing closest to Rex. “Walking a dog without a leash? What if it bit my child? Do you even know how deadly rabies is? Be a little responsible!”Her husband, noticing the million-dollar luxury car parked nearby and Alexander’s composed demeanor, quickly pulled at her arm. “Don’t say another word.”The woman turned to him, still fuming. “What does his money have to do with anything? Just because someone’s rich doesn’t mean they’re above basic decency. Walking a dog without a leash is like letting the dog walk you!”Alexander frowned slightly, his patience thinning. “It’s not my dog,” he replied curtly.But as if to be

Chapter 42: I’ll finish it then

Serena had no choice but to call Aunt Torres and inform her that Rex had been found. The older woman, who had been worrying all day, let out a long sigh of relief.“Thank goodness,” Aunt Torres murmured. “Miss Morales, next time I’ll keep a closer eye on him. I can’t believe he ran off like that.”Serena smiled gently as she placed Rex in the passenger seat and headed back to Le Châteauesque Manor. “It’s alright, Aunt Torres. Just remember to keep the gate at the front tightly closed. Rex is too lively for his own good.”“I’ll be sure of it,” Aunt Torres promised, patting Rex’s head affectionately as he wagged his tail.Although the incident had been resolved, Serena’s thoughts were elsewhere. Tomorrow was the anniversary of her mother’s death—a day she dreaded yet never failed to observe. She packed some clothes, purchased a few gifts for her aunt and uncle, and prepared to visit her hometown.In the evening, Serena turned her attention to her work. She revised the plans several time

Chapter 43: Like what you see?

Back in the reception room, Alexander leaned against the couch, raising a hand to rub his temple. The night had been taxing. The local business leaders, though well-meaning, had presented an endless stream of outdated ideas, their enthusiasm dimmed by decades of stagnation. Their desire to uplift Bronx County was admirable, but the conversation had been circular, leaving him feeling drained.Jonathan, noticing the faint crease in Alexander’s brow, stepped forward. “Sir, would you like me to have them prepare some sober-up soup for you?”Alexander loosened his tie, unbuttoning the top button of his crisp white shirt. The alcohol from the evening lingered faintly on his breath, and he exhaled, his usually sharp gaze slightly dulled by fatigue. “No need,” he said tersely, waving off the suggestion. “I’ll go out for a walk. The air here is fresher than in the city.”Jonathan hesitated before nodding. “The air quality is certainly one of Bronx County’s selling points. Maybe that’s why the

Chapter 44: Get out

This wasn’t the first time Alexander had asked this question. The last time, Serena had stared at his hand in disbelief, her honesty catching him off guard.Serena nodded this time, her voice matter-of-fact. “Yes. Although, to be precise, it’s very well drawn. What can I say, I’m an artist.”Alexander chuckled softly, a rare glimmer of amusement crossing his face. Her forthrightness was oddly refreshing, yet her unfiltered behavior left him slightly wary. She was, after all, a married woman. Such candidness felt misplaced, bordering on inappropriate.Without another word, Alexander quickly retrieved a fresh shirt, slipping it on with his usual measured movements. His tone turned dismissive. “Still not going?”Serena snapped out of her thoughts, realizing she was still standing there. She nodded quickly and grabbed her belongings. “Of course. Goodnight, Mr. Vanderbilt. Get some rest.”Alexander watched her retreating figure, not bothering to question why she was even here. The chance e

Chapter 45: It’s an excellent piece

The atmosphere carried a faint ambiguity as Ava gripped her paintbrush, warmth slowly creeping up her body. The night had softened into a serene stillness, yet the air between them felt charged, as if unspoken words hung heavier than the strokes on her canvas.Behind her, Ava heard faint footsteps. A wave of heat followed close, and her body instinctively stiffened. She didn’t dare turn her head, but her breath hitched when she felt Alexander brush past her, his presence impossible to ignore.He leaned slightly forward, reaching for another paintbrush. In that fleeting moment, his chest lightly grazed her back—a touch so brief it could have been accidental. Yet the warmth of it lingered, seeping through their clothes like a whisper of fire against her skin.Ava froze, the paintbrush trembling faintly in her hand. She watched from the corner of her eye as Alexander dipped the brush into her carefully mixed palette and, with surprising ease, added a few deliberate strokes to her painting

Chapter 46: Mr. Vanderbilt is on a tight schedule

When Alexander heard the voice outside the car, he frowned and looked up from the stack of documents on his lap. Sure enough, Ava Alvarez stood outside the car, her smile calm but undeniably charming. The bright sunlight of Charleston framed her figure, her eyes glinting like molten amber against the backdrop of the idyllic scenery.Alexander’s grip on the papers tightened. It felt like fate—or perhaps a twisted joke—that no matter where he went, Ava seemed to appear.Ava, however, seemed oblivious to the tension. Knocking lightly on the window again, she asked, “Mr. Vanderbilt, may I come in?”Alexander dropped his gaze back to his papers, masking his expression with his usual stoicism. “Come in,” he said with deliberate calm.Ava opened the car door and slid in. The wave of heat that accompanied her entry was tangible, the noon sun outside blazing fiercely. Along with the warmth came the faint fragrance she always carried—something floral yet subtle.Marco, standing outside, let out

Chapter 47: Your dad didn’t even want you!

Alexander only glanced at the thug, his expression unreadable, before twisting the man's wrist with calculated ease and tossing him aside like a discarded toy. The thug staggered, clutching his arm and groaning in pain as security personnel arrived and swiftly dragged him away.Ava, who had been holding back her rising frustration, released Tania’s wrist. Tania, clearly enraged, opened her mouth to lash out, but the sight of the approaching security made her begrudgingly hold her tongue. Gritting her teeth, she spat out, "Just you wait! I’ll deal with you later!"Ava, however, ignored her entirely. Instead, she turned toward Alexander and said calmly, "Mr. Vanderbilt, thank you."Alexander glanced at her briefly, his expression still indifferent. Taking the disinfectant wipes Jonathan handed him, he meticulously wiped his hands before turning on his heel and walking away, his long, confident strides leaving no room for further interaction.Ava sighed, intending to go find her uncle Ma

Chapter 48: an odd mix of nervousness and gratitude

Marco was suffering from heatstroke, and Ava knew better than to argue with a sick person. She nodded gently and said, "Uncle, I understand."Marco smiled faintly, the deep lines on his face softening. "This time, take a few more strings of sausages your aunt made when you go back. She also pickled some cabbage. I remember you used to love that when you stayed with us during high school."Ava’s lips curved into a soft smile. "Okay, Uncle."She didn’t speak further, focusing on the road as she drove him to the hospital. The air was thick with silence, but the weight of Marco’s words lingered in her mind.Halfway through their journey, Mona called, her voice laced with worry. "Ava, why haven’t you and Marco come back yet? Did something happen?""Uncle got heatstroke, so I took him to the hospital. We’ll be back a little later," Ava explained.Mona’s worry intensified. "Which hospital are you at? I’ll come over right now."After reassuring Mona and ending the call, Ava’s phone buzzed aga

Chapter 49: Mr. Vanderbilt. Actually, I’m...

The room was minimalist but elegantly furnished, its modern design subtly softened by warm lighting. A rectangular table stood near the center, laden with an open laptop and a neat stack of documents. The air inside carried a faint scent of polished wood, blending seamlessly with the faint aroma of the food Jonathan had just delivered.Alexander, seated by the table, exuded an air of meticulous focus. His broad shoulders framed the posture of a man who bore both authority and responsibility. Even while traveling to a seemingly remote location, he carried the weight of work with him. The pen in his hand moved swiftly across the paper as he reviewed and signed documents with practiced precision.Ava sat farther away, instinctively keeping her distance. She chose a simple wooden chair by the corner, avoiding the table where Alexander worked. Her gaze lingered on his silhouette, backlit by the faint golden glow filtering through the window. The play of light created soft contrasts, outlini
