"Do you own your own company?" Elisa asked.Joshua nodded with a polite smile."Yes, Ma'am. One of my companies works in partnership with Mr. Davenier's," he explained.Elisa let out a soft "Oh." Her thoughts drifted briefly to the past-her own father had once owned an import–export company, but after falling ill, the business collapsed. The loss had eventually taken his life too.They continued chatting pleasantly over dinner. When it was time to pay, Joshua insisted on covering the bill, no matter how much Alexandra tried to argue. He also refused to let them take a rideshare home since it was late and they were carrying several shopping bags."I can't just let the two of you go home like this. Please, let me drive you," he said firmly, leaving Alexandra with no choice but to agree.At the house, Elisa warmed up to Joshua even more. She insisted he stay for a moment and quickly made him a cup of hot tea."I'm sorry, I only have tea and a few simple snacks," she said apologetically.

"Hey, Mr. Jenkins, how are you? Weren't we supposed to meet the day after tomorrow? What brings you here today?" Roger asked with a light laugh, gesturing for Joshua to take a seat.Although a hint of jealousy stirred in Roger whenever Joshua was around, he forced himself to remain professional. After all, Joshua was not only a trusted business partner but also a brilliant entrepreneur who had built multiple thriving companies."I apologize, Mr. Davenier, for coming earlier than planned," Joshua began. "But in a few days, I'll be flying overseas, and I need to prepare everything beforehand. That's why I thought it would be better to see you today."Roger nodded, understanding. "Your business must be expanding rapidly, I see."Joshua chuckled and waved his hand modestly. "Not really. You know how it is-it's a family business that's been running for years. Now the responsibility falls on me, so the demands are just part of the job. I have to be here, there, and everywhere. Oh, and Mr. D

That morning, just as Alexandra sat down after setting up breakfast, Roger finally arrived. She greeted him with a gentle smile."Good morning, Sir. Just got in? Your breakfast and coffee are already inside," Alexandra said warmly."Come straight to my office," Roger replied.Alexandra nodded, gathering a stack of documents that needed his signature today, and followed him in."Axel drove you this morning?" Roger asked as she stepped inside."Of course. Who else would drive me if not Axel? But starting tomorrow, I'd like to come on my own. Don't have him pick me up or drop me off anymore," Alexandra said firmly.Roger frowned. "Why? You're my girlfriend. It's my responsibility to make sure you're safe. Even if I can't pick you up myself-since you're still hiding us from your mother-I still want you looked after," he muttered, sounding a little sulky.Alexandra smiled sweetly. "It's not like that. You know how Mother is."Roger let out a long sigh and dropped onto the sofa."Last night

"Dad, are you sure you're okay with this?" Esther asked as she and her father drove toward the hospital."Why wouldn't I be?""Well... you probably need some rest," Esther replied carefully.Victor chuckled. "Rest can wait. I'm more curious to meet your brother's future wife."Esther laughed at his remark. "Alright then! Oh, Dad, don't forget to stop by the fruit shop. I want to bring something for Alexandra's mother."Victor nodded and pulled into a fruit store. Esther hopped out quickly, picking out the best apples, mangoes, oranges, and grapes she could find."That's quite a lot, sweetheart," Victor said when he saw the pile."It's fine. Alexa's looking after her mom-she'll probably snack on some too. Let's also grab some proper food, Dad. They might not have eaten dinner yet."Victor didn't argue. He drove them to the family's favorite restaurant, where they ordered several dishes to take along."Anything else?" he asked once they were back in the car.Esther shook her head. "That

By morning, Stacy was still seething, her thoughts tangled and bitter. She had no proof, but in her mind, Diana was the one who ruined everything.'That sly woman must've switched the glasses... I know it was her.'Determined to save face, Stacy decided to visit Roger's office and apologize in person. She drove her red Jazz straight to his company headquarters.The moment she stepped out of the elevator, Diana was waiting."Well, well. Stacy, where are you heading?" Diana asked coolly."To Mr. Davenier's office. I have something important to discuss with him," Stacy replied sharply, her eyes narrowing."If it's about business, you can talk to me. No need to involve Mr. Davenier directly," Diana said, blocking her path.Stacy ignored her and marched forward. Right outside Roger's office, she ran into Alexa. Chin lifted high, Stacy sneered."What are you staring at?" she hissed."Hey, where do you think you're going? Did you even make an appointment with Mr. Davenier?" Alexa shot back,
