Gordon's funeral was held three days later—a simple and solemn ceremony.On the day of the funeral, Alexander stood at a distance, watching her grieve in silence. He didn't approach, wanting to give her space to process her pain.A few relatives offered their condolences and left early. Only Phoebe and her parents stayed by Gordon's graveside, unwilling to leave him alone.Phoebe stood in front of Gordon's gravestone, crying until she fainted, waking only to cry again. She couldn't believe he was gone—leaving behind their parents and her, just like that. Memories of their childhood happiness played in her mind. He had been alive and well, and now all that remained was a cold gravestone.She would never forgive herself. She believed Gordon's death was entirely her fault. If he hadn't tried to save her, he would still be here. Even if he had gone astray, at least he would still be alive.Now, with Gordon's death, more responsibilities and guilt weighed heavily on her shoulders. Staring a

The next morning, Phoebe woke up to find herself lying in bed.Had Alexander brought her back? She turned over, trying to recall what had happened last night.But as she shifted, she felt a sudden chill under the covers. She pulled them back, only to realize she was completely naked underneath.A cold shiver ran down her spine.How did she end up without clothes? She didn't usually sleep like this!Then, the sound of running water from the bathroom shattered her thoughts, making her head spin. She quickly grabbed some clothes and, barefoot and still unclothed, rushed toward the bathroom. She pushed the door open gently.Inside, the mist from the shower hung in the air, and standing beneath it was Alexander—his body, sculpted and smooth, the kind of physique that could drive any woman wild.Phoebe froze, her mind blank, her ability to think evaporating. It wasn't a dream. Alexander was in her house... and he was showering.The water cut off abruptly, and at that moment, Alexander's hea

After finishing breakfast, Alexander took Phoebe straight to the airport. Without saying much, he ushered her onto the plane. It wasn't until she was seated that Phoebe realized how confused she felt."Where are we going?" she asked."Abroad," Alexander replied."Ah?" Phoebe's mouth formed an "O.""For what?" she pressed, voicing her curiosity."I have some business to take care of," Alexander answered, his hands still busy working. He had brought her along to give her a change of scenery and to keep her by his side."Oh," Phoebe mumbled, puffing out her cheeks as her mood sank.So, he was here for work. She had assumed this trip was meant to be a relaxing getaway for the two of them.Watching him work so diligently, Phoebe couldn't help but stare. From the moment they boarded the plane, he hadn't stopped, not even for a moment. He's so busy.But despite his hectic schedule, he still made time to see her every day.He looked so handsome while working—especially his profile, with its s

Morning sunlight streamed gently through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a soft glow across the room.On the bed, Phoebe's fair skin glowed under the warm light, making her look ethereal, almost unreal.She nestled lazily in Alexander's arms, her slightly disheveled hair veiling the soft curve of her neck.Her long, curled lashes fluttered faintly, and her innocent face, serene in sleep, radiated a tender sweetness that tugged at the heart.Alexander lay on his side, holding her with a possessive tenderness.His sharp eyes locked onto her delicate features, drinking in the sight of her nestled against him. His lips curved into a faint, rare smile, and a glimmer of warmth danced in his deep gaze.Unconsciously, his slender fingers traced the contour of her cheek, tucking stray strands of hair behind her ear.At that moment, Phoebe seemed as pure as an otherworldly sprite.She was stunning. Young. So tempting that it ignited a deep, primal desire to claim her.Lifting a strand of

The elevator slowly ascended, stopping only at the 48th floor.The doors opened, and Alexander naturally took Phoebe's soft hand, leading her toward his office.Along the way, several curious glances from his subordinates followed them. Phoebe felt embarrassed and almost pulled her hand back, but Alexander gripped it tighter, almost as if to show off, as though he didn't want anyone to miss the fact that they were together.Was he trying to prove something? It almost seemed like he was sending a message.Phoebe didn't quite understand his intentions. She stole a glance at his expression—it seemed like he was in a really good mood.Seeing him like this, Phoebe didn't dare to pull her hand away. She simply let him lead her... Could it be that, by doing this, he was showing that he no longer saw her as just a tool?From the elevator to the CEO's office, Phoebe didn't dare lift her head.Only when the door to the office finally closed behind them did Phoebe let out a sigh of relief.
