The drive with Jesse was quiet but Alina was curious, wanting to understand how everything had ended up the way it had moments ago. Turning her head slightly toward Jesse, she whispered;

“Thank you… for showing up when you did.”

Jesse smiled faintly, eyes still on the road. “You don’t have to thank me. If anyone deserves the credit, it’s the restaurant manager.”

Alina raised an eyebrow, confused. “The manager?”

Jesse nodded. “After you sent Aiden your location, he called the restaurant and told the manager to make sure you were taken care of. Said his wife was coming and he didn’t want any surprises.”

He chuckled.

"The waiters had already been gossiping about how ‘Mr. Ben’ was proposing in a very… unique way," he said with a sarcastic lift of his brow. “ That’s when the manager called Aiden and explained the situation. I came because Aiden was pissed that he ended up paying for the meal of people trying to marry off his wife.”

Alina gave a small smile. "Seems nothing escapes his eyes

    Alina sat curled up beside Aiden on the couch, smiling softly. All she could focus on was him, especially since his eyes hadn’t left her face since she walked in.She let out a small breath, gently brushing her fingers over his hand.“I don’t even know where to start. But honestly, it was kind of funny,” she said softly.“Funny?”“You should have seen me begging Mr. Wilson to leave me alone. If he hadn’t been so stubborn, maybe it wouldn’t have ended the way it did,” she muttered.Aiden’s lips twitched into a small smile, but his head tilted slightly, eyes narrowing. “Can you just tell me everything? How did your stepmother even get the nerve to try setting you up with another man?”Alina’s smile widened at the sight of his anger on her behalf. She told him everything, leaving out nothing, including how Jesse showed up just in time.She paused, her fingers toying with the hem of her blouse."Thank you," she said finally, eyes meeting his. "For everything. For coming for me without eve

    Ben sat on the sidewalk outside the restaurant, still in shock. His chest felt heavy, and he couldn’t stop hearing those awful words: "You’re doomed." They echoed in his head like a bad music.He hadn’t even wiped his face properly when a young waiter stepped out of the restaurant and walked over to him."Excuse me, sir," the waiter said politely. "Are you Mr. Wilson?"Ben raised his head slowly, swallowing the lump in his throat. He stood up sluggishly, wiped his face with the back of his hand, then nodded like someone who had just lost everything."Yes... I’m Ben Wilson."The waiter offered a faint, sympathetic smile. “Please come inside. They’re waiting for you.”Ben blinked. "Waiting for me?" His voice was hoarse. "Why?"But the waiter didn’t answer that part. Instead, he turned and began walking, expecting Ben to follow.Ben paused for a moment, then followed behind, dragging his feet. He now held his phone, its cracked screen black and lifeless.As they walked through the hallwa

    Once Alina left, the mood in the restaurant changed sharply. Mrs. Wilson immediately turned to Susan, who blinked quickly and pressed her lips together under the pressure of the older woman’s glare. “What is going on, Mrs. Carpenter?” Her voice was calm but deadly. “You told us your stepdaughter would cooperate. Instead, she embarrassed both my son and me. How dare you? Are you ready to face the consequences of this shame?” Susan’s throat tightened, but she forced a polite smile. "The thing is… she just needs time. She’s lying about being married. She’s heartbroken, that’s all. There was a man she fancied, and he rejected her. That’s why she’s acting so… difficult. I hope you understand." She smiled again, trying to smooth things over. Mrs. Wilson narrowed her lips and rolled her eyes in disbelief. Before she could say anything, her son Ben stood up and stormed out of the room. She turned quickly. “Ben!” she called, but he was already gone. ***** Alina had barely rai

    "I'm Ben by the way."The young man smiled smugly, his fingers drumming against the white tablecloth before he reached into his coat pocket and pulled out a folded document. He unfolded it slowly, laying it flat on the table like he’d just won a game he never gave her a chance to play.“I’ve already sent the wedding gifts to your mother,” he said, smiling with satisfaction. “This lunch is just to seal the deal. You know, so we can get to know each other a little more before setting the date.”Alina’s grip tightened around the cold water glass. Her eyes flicked to Susan, who offered her a forced tight-lipped smile. A laugh bubbled up in Alina’s throat...was this a joke? Had she stepped into some twisted alternate reality? "I told you before, didn’t I?" Susan said sweetly, her tone dripping with fake concern. "Your father asked me to grant him this one wish. I’ve done everything I could for you, and this is the last thing left. The last wish he spoke about. For you to get married."Ali

    Alina stepped back into the house, shutting the door gently behind her. She inhaled, calming her nerves. Her eyes trailed toward the couch where Mandy sat, cheerfully eating the food she had brought.The moment Mandy saw her, her face lit up. “You’re back! Come sit,” she said, patting the spot beside her.Alina gave a small smile and walked over, sitting down next to her.“This dish right here,” Mandy said with her mouth still half full, “might be my favorite yet. What do you say, want to be my cooking partner? That way I don’t accidentally poison someone one day.”Alina laughed. “So you’re finally admitting you’re not as great in the kitchen as you act?”“I never claimed to be a pro,” Mandy defended, pretending to be offended. “Cooking’s not my thing. But with your help, we could be magic. I can learn!”Before Alina could reply, Grandma Linda smacked Mandy’s arm lightly. “She’s not your maid.”Mandy puffed her cheeks and pouted. “Grandma…”The sight made Alina burst into soft laughte
