Alexander sat in his office, lost in thought as he reflected on the first time he met Camilla Kings. His mind wandered to the recent events between them and the public's reaction, so absorbed in his musings that he didn't notice when his personal assistant, James Carron, entered the room."Excuse me, Sir," James called out, but received no response. He cleared his throat and spoke louder, which finally caught Alexander's attention."Yeah, what do you need?" Alexander asked, his usual cheerful demeanor returning."You have a letter from Fillers Law Associates," James said, holding out an envelope to Alexander.Alexander took the letter and opened it, his eyebrows rising in surprise as he read the contents.After a moment, he smiled and shook his head, remaining silent for a few seconds before his PA spoke."Is everything alright, sir?" James asked, concern etched on his face."Camilla Kings just filed a lawsuit against me for sexual assault and conspiracy," Alexander replied calmly, ca

Alexander looked at the woman, dressed in various layers of clothing and sporting a floppy hat and dark shades, as she walked into the empty restaurant. "You're late," he said."I'm so sorry, Mr. Cena," she apologized. "I had a little problem on my way here.""Why are you dressed like a fugitive?" he asked, gesturing towards her outfit."Do you know how many threats I've received in the last couple of days? Of course, I had to disguise myself to be able to go out," she explained, her tone annoyed."What's with that tone? You brought this upon yourself, not me," he responded without any emotion or pity."I know. I know I did this to myself. I underestimated the power of your and Miss Kings' fans, including the public in general." She paused to settle down then continued."I didn't think the news of you guys being together would explode like this. But on the bright side, my magazine is doing very well, millions of people are visiting day-in, day-out. It's a huge success for me," she sai

Alexander let out a heavy sigh as he looked a the red-haired journalist, seated in front of him."Five million dollars. Who's your source?" he asked, his tone measured but firm.Mariah's eyes widened in surprise, "Five what?!" she exclaimed, her hand quickly covering her mouth in shock."I'll pay you five million dollars and make Camilla drop the lawsuit if you tell me who your source is. Who told you that Camilla and I were in that hotel room that morning?" Alexander asked calmly, but Mariah was still staring at him in disbelief.Alexander let out another sigh and rubbed his temples. "Or did you know about us being there yourself?" he asked, his patience wearing thin.At this point, he couldn't shake the growing feeling that Mariah might have orchestrated the whole thing, walking in on them that fateful morning to get a photo for the sake of her magazine.Mariah finally spoke, her voice low and resolute. "Mr. Cena, I'm not the kind of person who takes bribes for information. And I do

"Is this all we need to do to make her drop the lawsuit?" Alexander queried, leaning forward with his hand resting on the glass table. He looked intently at his attorney, Peggy Smith, who sat across from him."You have nothing to worry about, Mr. Cena," Peggy reassured with a small smile, as she neatly gathered her documents on the table and stood up to leave."Thank you, Mrs. Smith," Alexander said, standing up to shake her hand. As they parted, Peggy smiled and turned to leave, closing the door behind her.Alexander sat back down, taking a deep breath and letting out a sigh as he leaned back and interlaced his fingers behind his head.He wondered how Camilla would react to his response to the lawsuit she served him. "Let's see how this goes," he murmured to himself.•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~"Ma'am, please try to stay calm," Lauren urged, watching as Camilla paced frantically around her office, muttering to herself and the sound of her heels striking the hardwood floor."Calm down?

Peggy turned to Alexander, who gave her a subtle nod, before addressing Mr. Filler's question. "The answer is yes," she said confidently, making both Camilla and Mr. Filler raise their eyebrows in interest."We have a significant amount of evidence to support our claim," Peggy added, before pulling out a blue file from her briefcase and placing it in front of Mr. Filler and Camilla."In this file, you'll find my client's hospital test results taken the day after the incident between him and Miss Kings occurred, which show a high level of alcohol in his bloodstream.""This clearly proves that he was drunk that night," she disclosed, looking straight at Camilla, who had an annoyed expression on her face."And does that justify what he did to me?" Camilla asked angrily, glaring at Peggy."Miss Kings, may I ask you a question?" Peggy said, addressing Camilla in a professional manner."We're you drunk on the night of the incident?" Peggy inquired, her gaze fixed on Camilla as she awaited h

But just as he closed his eyes, his phone began buzzing.Groaning, he reached for it, and upon seeing the caller ID, answered groggily. "Yes?" he mumbled, but there was no response.Annoyed, he snapped, "What is it?" and rubbed his eyes, trying to shake off the drowsiness."Sir, Mr. Carson is here to see you," informed one of his employees through the speakerphone.He quickly sat up straight and replied with more urgency than intended, "Keep him entertained, I'll be down in five." He ended the call, determined to meet with Mr. Carson.Sighing deeply, he placed his phone back onto the nightstand. He massaged his face with his hands before rising from the bed. After swiftly changing into fresh clothes, he made his way downstairs to meet his guest.•~•~•~•~•~•~"I didn't expect you to arrive so soon," Alexander said with a smirk as he laid eyes on the young man sitting on the couch in his livi

"No." Camilla shook her head slowly as she took a sip of water from the glass cup in her hand. "That's not going to happen," she said firmly."Oh come on, Bambina,(Baby) it's just a pretense, nothing more," Alessia said, sounding excited over the phone as Camilla sat back on her sofa."Mamma, you made me have a meeting with him and his attorney. How did that turn out?" Camilla asked, her brow furrowing as she waited for her mother's response.There was a pause for a few seconds before Alessia spoke again, "Well..." Camilla detected the hesitation in her mother's voice and raised her eyebrow slightly."Exactly. And then you persuaded me to meet with him again, and this time what happened? He asked me to pretend to be in a relationship with him so the public wouldn't see me as a woman who sleeps with rich men," she said with disgust.There was a heavy sigh on the other end of the line, and Camilla bit her lip."Bambina,(Baby) I don't think that's what he meant when he said that. And ther
