Serena P. O. V

Fifteen minutes passed, and Leopold finally came back into the meeting room. He had a hard look on his face and a sharp look in his eyes. I shuddered in horror as his neck muscles tightened.

Damn it! How could my brain conjure up images of Leopold moving on top of me and moaning with his muscles tensed? Far be it from my dirty mind!

“Sorry for the interruption, Serena.” Mr. Raymond smiled formally. And then gave the code to Leopold, or what I call Mr. Leopold, who was still standing at the side of the table. “Leopold is my work partner. Actually, he is directly responsible for you.”

“Yes.” I could only nod and force a genuine smile. For the sake of everything, Leopold's glare scared me as hell.

Leopold sat on the chair opposite me. My heart skipped a beat as I watched the muscles of his arms move as he crossed his arms over his chest. It's not uncommon for the boss of a tech company to be so relaxed. Leopold was wearing a white T-shirt with a Saint Laurent logo, b

  • It Started With One-Night Stand   Chapter 110: My Home, My Heaven

    Leopold POV Five years have passed quickly, but it feels like only yesterday that I first met my chatty wife. Although we have faced various problems, both small and big, in our relationship, we have always tried to find solutions together. The first three years were a tough test for us. From minor arguments that led to days without talking to a big problem when my branch companies almost went bankrupt because of the actions of my trusted people. At that time, I was forced to leave Serena and our baby in America to deal with issues in various countries. Our relationship almost broke down, and Serena almost asked for a divorce because my busy schedule made her feel neglected, especially when she had the baby blues. Once, when Serena cried and angrily asked for a divorce over the phone, it felt like the world was crumbling before my eyes. Luckily, Serena's family was there to help take care of my son and boost her morale. I can never thank my father-in-law enough for being so unders

    Serena POVI frowned as Renesmee stopped the car in front of a luxury boutique building specializing in wedding dresses. From afar, the sunlight reflected off the boutique's windows, giving off a hypnotizing impression of luxury. “Renesmee, what did we come here for?” I protested, my hesitant voice clearly audible in the afternoon breeze that swept through my hair. She said she was taking me somewhere nice, but it turned out to be this luxury boutique.She laughed lightly, her bright-green eyes flashing. “You're curious, aren't you?”Renesmee glanced at me with a mysterious smile on her lips as we walked into the courtyard of the boutique building in Beverly Hills.I sighed, knowing for sure that she had a plan behind all this. I knew this boutique, a place only the elite could afford.

    Leopold POV I sat in the center of the living room that I had carefully designed. Nervousness struck, though I tried to hide it behind my broad smile. Tonight was the night I had been waiting for—the night I would propose to Serena, my true love, to become my wife.Looking around, I couldn't help but smile at all the simple designs I had prepared. I adorned the living room with vibrant roses, their fragrance evoking memories of Serena’s alluring presence.

I love Leopold, and I will not leave him.”There were no more words from my father; there was only a pressing silence in the room. The debate over the terms of becoming part of the Alexander family would never end.After all, how could I sacrifice my love? I will defend my choice, no matter what.“I realized long ago that you never considered my presence. I struggled to find my own happiness. Then, when I found a man who accepted me sincerely, you suddenly asked me to break up,” I said disappointed.“Serena, I know what's best for you.” Dad growled as he squeezed the sofa.I shook my head. “You never knew about me, dad.
