The next evening, Alexander waited nervously outside Sophia's office building. He knew she would be finishing work soon, and he didn't want to disturb her in the office.

#62 "I Love to See You Mad."

Alexander was feeling terrible. He knew he had promised his mother he'd invite Sophia to her birthday party, but the idea weighed heavily on him. Their recent interactions hadn't exactly been smooth, and he was unsure of how she'd react to the invitation. Especially after last night's conversation.Alexander knew that Sophia would misinterpret his words because she did not know Michael as he did. She didn't know what his half-brother was capable of.

#63 "Well, That's Quite the Family Drama."

Michael had arrived at the location for his date with Sophia and immediately spotted her in the midst of the bustling crowd. He couldn't help but raise his hands in astonishment before making his way toward her.Sophia couldn't contain her laughter as she observed Michael's reaction. He closed the distance between them with a warm smile, and she returned it in kind."If I'm being honest, I never would have guessed that our date would be at a country fair festival," he remarked, wrapping her in a friendly hug.Sophia reciprocated the hug. "What can I tell you? I'm full of surprises," she replied with a playful glint in her eye.Together, they made their way toward the entrance of the festival, the lively sounds of people and the laughter of children providing a cheerful backdrop to their conversation."So, how did you decide on this place?" Michael inquired."I didn't grow up with a silver spoon in my mouth, and as soon as I saw the ad for the fair, I couldn't resist," Sophia explained

#64 "It's Almost Like You Have Feelings for Me."

Sophia sat there, gazing at the bustling carnival scene when she suddenly sensed someone approaching. Turning her head, she was met with the sight of Alexander. At that moment, understanding dawned on her. Michael's abrupt departure had something to do with Alexander. "Is the seat free?" Alexander inquired, looking at the bale of straw where Sophia had been sharing a moment with Michael just moments ago. Sophia couldn't help but chuckle and nodded. Alexander appeared a bit out of place amidst the carnival's relaxed atmosphere, dressed in a formal suit, and it took him a moment to figure out how to sit without getting dirty or toppling over. Seeing his awkwardness, Sophia couldn't suppress her laughter. "No need to be so cautious; it's just a little straw. Go ahead and sit down." Alexander gave a grateful but awkward smile and gingerly settled onto the straw, patting his suit self-consciously to ensure it remained presentable amid the rustic setting. Sophia flashed a smile at Alex

#65 "It's You, Sophia."

Alexander looked into Sophia's eyes, his gaze filled with sincerity and vulnerability. He knew that what he was confessing was unconventional and unexpected, but he couldn't keep his feelings hidden any longer. With a deep breath, he reached out and gently took her hand, hoping to convey the depth of his emotions."That's right, I have feelings for you, Sophia," Alexander began, his voice steady but filled with emotion. "And I've been struggling for a long time to show you that I'm not who you think I am. I care about you, and it's often hard for me to convey my thoughts exactly, and I think we often fight because we don't understand each other."Sophia's eyes widened in shock, and she instinctively pulled her hand away from Alexander's, shaking her head in disbelief."This is crazy, Alexander," she said. "We're divorced. Do you realize how crazy this is?"Alexander leaned in closer, his voice soft but resolute. "Sophia, our marriage was a joke. We haven't even met each other for 3 ye

#66 "In that Case, I can Make an Exception."

Alexander reclined on his sofa, the amber liquid in his glass catching the soft glow of the room's dim lighting. As he took a sip of the whiskey, its warmth spread through him, calming his thoughts. Despite Sophia's refusals earlier in the evening, he held onto a glimmer of hope. For him, the day had been filled with pleasant surprises, and he believed they had made progress.The silence of his spacious home was broken by the soft clinking of the ice in his glass as he swirled the whiskey gently. He thought about Sophia, her laughter, and the moments they had shared at the carnival. With each passing second, his desire to get to know her better grew stronger.After another contemplative sip, he reached for his phone and dialed his mother's number. The call connected, and Caroline's voice greeted him warmly."Hello dear. How are you?" "I'm fine, but I have something to tell you," he began.“Is it related to Sophia and my birthday?” she asked excitedly."Yes," replied Alexander more gl

#67 "I'd Like to Leave this Watch for Maintenance."

Sophia's laughter echoed through the upscale boutique as Evelyn's excitement reached a crescendo. Evelyn's enthusiasm was infectious, and Sophia couldn't help but share in the moment. She twirled in front of the mirror, admiring the stunning red dress that clung to her curves in all the right places."You have to buy this dress! Evelyn squealed, her voice not matching the hushed ambiance of the boutique.Sophia laughed and motioned for her to be quieter. She took another look in the mirror and nodded her approval. She had fallen in love with the dress at first sight.It was simple, yet its cut was such that it perfectly outlined her body. A blood-red long dress with a daring slit running down to her thigh. There were no straps, and the top resembled a corset, expertly tailored to fit her bust like a glove.Evelyn continued her enthusiastic appraisal, her words now in a slightly lower, more appropriate tone. "If you don't buy this dress, I will kill you. You look absolutely stunning an

#68 "You Look Absolutely Stunning Tonight."

The early morning light filtered through the curtains as Sophia groggily navigated her way to the kitchen. Despite her accomplishments as a lawyer, there was one thing she couldn't quite master – getting up early. She had known since her school days that she was a night owl, and no matter how hard she tried, waking up early remained a daily struggle.Her demanding job required it, and it wasn't getting any easier. She sighed and rubbed her eyes as she prepared her morning coffee, the aromatic brew gradually pulling her into a state of alertness. Just as she was beginning to feel more awake, her phone rang, startling her.Sophia glanced at the screen and saw that it was Evelyn calling. Evelyn was the polar opposite when it came to morning routines – she was up and full of energy by the crack of dawn."Good morning," Evelyn's cheerful voice greeted Sophia as she answered the call.Sophia, still in the process of waking up, replied with a hint of amusement, "What's so important that it c

#69 "Sophia is A Living Mystery."

Sophia remained silent in the car on the way to the concert, staring out the window to avoid paying too much attention to Alexander."Why do you avoid me? You know I'm only driving you to the concert, not kidnapping you," he joked, trying to break the ice."I know," Sophia replied coldly, without looking at him.Ever since the evening of the carnival, especially after Alexander's confession, Sophia had been avoiding any unnecessary contact with him. She was determined not to encourage his lingering feelings. Their divorce was final, and she believed it was for the best."I'm glad you'll be there," Alexander continued, attempting to maintain a conversation."I haven't heard the maestro play in a long time," was Sophia's simple response.Realizing that engaging in a conversation with Sophia was a challenge, Alexander decided to turn on the car's radio. They continued the rest of the drive in silence.Upon arriving at the birthday venue, Alexander noticed Sophia's slight frown. He parked

#70 "It wasn't a Date."

Sophia and Evelyn had managed to find a quiet spot on one of the terraces, away from the bustling crowd of the event. Evelyn leaned against the balcony, her expression sullen, as she sipped her wine in silence."Come on, tell me what's bothering you," Sophia encouraged, her eyes filled with understanding, aware that Evelyn wanted to discuss Alexander once again.Evelyn sighed, finally breaking her silence. "I just can't wrap my head around why Megan keeps clinging to Alexander. You told me about your date at the carnival, and...""It wasn't a date," Sophia interjected with a wry smile, her voice soft but firm.Evelyn scoffed lightly, taking another sip of her wine. "Yeah, yeah, I know you like to downplay things but come on, it was a date, Sophia. Bumper cars, beer, and candy? That's like a classic date scenario. Plus, he confessed his feelings to you, not to her."Sophia sighed and decided to set the record straight. "Evelyn, they used to be a couple. Maybe he still has some lingerin
