In the soft morning light filtering through the curtains, Alexander and Sophia lay intertwined on the bed, basking in the afterglow of their passionate night together. Their bodies molded perfectly against each other, limbs tangled in a loving embrace. Soft murmurs of affection and sweet nothings filled the air as they exchanged tender words, their hearts overflowing with love."I could stay like this forever," Alexander whispered, his voice barely more than a breath against her skin.Sophia smiled, her fingers tracing lazy circles on his chest. "Me too," she murmured, her voice a soft melody that blended with the gentle rhythm of their breathing. "I never want this moment to end.""I don't even feel like going to work today," Alexander admitted.Sophia laughed. ''We didn't save the company so you could lie down. Although I understand you. I can't even look at a document anymore.''A sudden knock on the door disrupted their intimate moment, but Alexander, not wanting to let go of Soph

Alexander had dropped Sophia off at work and had just arrived at his office. Things were much calmer now. Alexander hoped that after a few more interviews with reporters, everything could soon return to its usual rhythm of work.It was more fun for him to watch the reporters tear his father apart now that they had aired a clip of his dinner with Caroline.Alexander sat down at his desk, but before diving into his work, he wanted to make an important call. He picked up his phone and dialed Kyle."Hello, Alexander. Great performance, my friend. Last night’s press conference was wonderful," Kyle greeted him with evident enthusiasm.Alexander chuckled at his friend's spirited reaction. "I'm glad it's over. You’re back from your honeymoon already, aren’t you?""Two days ago. I still can't bring myself to work, only romantic moments are in my head," Kyle replied, his voice filled with a hint of whimsy."I can imagine," Alexander laughed, finding joy in his friend's happiness."But congratul

In the evening, Alexander returned to their apartment with Sophia. As he opened the door, the enticing aroma of a freshly cooked dinner filled the air, drawing him toward the kitchen. There, he found Sophia singing along to a song and swaying rhythmically as she cooked.Sophia was clad only in one of his shirts, the hem barely reaching her thighs. Around the dining area, candles flickered softly and a bottle of wine was set neatly beside two glasses on the table. Alexander paused in the doorway, struck by the intimate scene and the undeniable beauty of the woman before him."You know I could live like this for the rest of my life," he said, his voice filled with affection and admiration.Startled by his sudden presence, Sophia spun around, causing a plate she had been drying to slip from her fingers and crash to the floor, shattering into numerous pieces."God, don't sneak up on me like that!" she exclaimed, a mix of surprise and laughter coloring her voice."I'll clean up," Alexander

The next morning, Alexander woke up to the aroma of coffee wafting through the apartment. As he opened his eyes, he found Sophia already up, preparing breakfast in the kitchen. "Good morning, love," Alexander greeted her, his voice still heavy with sleep. "Good morning, sleepyhead," Sophia replied, flashing him a warm smile. "Breakfast is almost ready. I made your favorite." Alexander stretched and made his way to the kitchen, wrapping his arms around Sophia from behind. He pressed a soft kiss to her cheek, feeling a sense of comfort in her presence. "Thank you, sweetheart," he said, his voice filled with gratitude. They enjoyed breakfast together, laughing and chatting about trivial things. However, as Alexander's phone rang again, Sophia couldn't help but feel a pang of annoyance. "Sorry, I have to take this," Alexander said, giving her a quick apologetic smile before stepping out of the kitchen to answer the call. Sophia sighed softly, feeling a mix of frustration and curios

Alexander and Evelyn were deep in discussion, poring over lush catalogs of floral arrangements and elegant fabric swatches. They were sitting in a small, eclectic café, their table cluttered with color samples and notepads filled with sketches and notes. The café buzzed softly around them, a background hum to their intense focus on creating a stunning setting for what Alexander envisioned as the perfect engagement proposal.His phone buzzed. Glancing at the screen, he saw Kyle's name and excused himself from the table to take the call."Hey, what's up?" Alexander answered, stepping into the quieter space near the back of the café."Dude, you might want to brace yourself. Sophia called me, totally spinning out about you and Evelyn. She thinks there’s something going on between you two," Kyle's voice was tinged with amusement but underscored by concern.Alexander pinched the bridge of his nose, a sigh escaping him. "What did you tell her?""I covered for you. Told her Evelyn's about to

A week zipped by in a whirlwind of activity, and now only days remained until Alexander's planned proposal to Sophia. He was at the villa, overseeing the last of the preparations, his mother by his side. The morning was bright, the sun casting playful reflections over the elaborate arrangements that transformed their family home into a fairy-tale setting.Alexander and his mother walked through the gardens, admiring the way the florists had draped strings of white and pink flowers across the walkways. Every detail was being tuned to perfection, from the soft glow of fairy lights woven through the branches of the old oak trees to the elegant white drapery that flanked the garden paths."It’s all coming together beautifully, Alex," his mother remarked, her voice filled with a mix of pride and joy. She looked around, visibly pleased with how the preparations had turned out. "I can hardly believe it. My son, ready to propose."Alexander chuckled, running a hand through his hair—a nervous
After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife #239 "Never Say That Again."
Alexander's expression shifted from surprise to distress as he watched the flicker of doubt shadowing Sophia's face. He felt a sharp pang of guilt, realizing that his actions had inadvertently led her to question his feelings. Now, seeing the candlelit room and her carefully chosen dress, he understood the depth of her insecurities. She had orchestrated this entire evening under the mistaken belief that she needed to reignite his affection. "Never say that again," Alexander's voice was firm, tinged with emotion. "Sophia, you are the love of my life. I know it seems like I'm distant, but I promise, everything will be clear very soon." "Just tell me now," Sophia pressed, her eyes searching for the truth. "If there’s no problem with us, then tell me what’s going on." "Please, love. Just a little patience, just trust me a bit longer," he pleaded, his voice soft. Taking her hands in his, Alexander knelt beside her chair, an earnest plea in his eyes. But Sophia looked away, her heart h

In the morning, Alexander woke up in nervous anticipation. He couldn't wait to propose to Sophia and hoped she would accept. Sophia was still sleeping, pressed against him in the bed.Carefully, Alexander slid out of bed, not wanting to disturb Sophia's peaceful sleep. He tiptoed to the desk and wrote a note to Sophia. "Don't forget about my mother's party tonight. I'll meet you there at 7." He placed the note on the bedside table where she would easily find it.As he was about to leave the room, he heard Sophia's voice."You get out of bed like a lover. Fuck and ditch," Sophia grumbled, her voice thick with sleep.Alexander sensed the accusation in her tone but couldn't help but laugh. “Oh, my love. There's no way you can get rid of me that easily.''"Oh, you left me a note. For your mother's party. You know what's just missing?""What?" Alexander asked, curious."An explanation for why you're disappearing again.""I told you twenty-four hours, but I think it's only been 12."“Alexan
