Chapter 141

OliviaI stepped out of Alexander's sleek Aston Martin, the soft hum of the engine cutting off as we arrived at the Children's Hospital Foundation gala. The venue was lit up against the night sky, a historic hotel in downtown Los Angeles that had been transformed for the evening's charity event. Valets in crisp uniforms hurried to assist arriving guests, and I smoothed down the silk of my midnight blue gown, grateful for the stylist Alexander had arranged. "Ready?" Alexander asked, appearing at my side and offering his arm. I took it, feeling the solid warmth of him through his tuxedo jacket. "As I'll ever be." He looked devastating in his tuxedo, the perfect cut emphasizing his broad shoulders and trim waist. Several women openly stared as we climbed the steps to the entrance, and I couldn't blame them. The man was unfairly handsome. "You look beautiful tonight," he murmured, his lips close to my ear. "That dress was made for you." "So you've said. Three times now." I smiled up

OliviaWhen the song ended, Alexander led me back toward our table, but we were intercepted by a distinguished-looking woman with silver hair. "Dr. Porter," Alexander greeted her warmly. "I'd like you to meet my wife, Olivia. Olivia, this is Dr. Emily Porter, head of the Children's Hospital Foundation." "It's a pleasure to meet you," I said, shaking her hand. "The pleasure is mine," Dr. Porter replied. "Alexander has been one of our most generous supporters. The Carter Wing has helped thousands of children." "The Carter Wing?" I looked at Alexander questioningly. Dr. Porter seemed surprised. "The pediatric research center. Alexander funded it three years ago. Surely he told you?" Alexander looked almost embarrassed. "It never came up." "Well, he's too modest," Dr. Porter continued. "The center focuses on rare childhood diseases, many of which were considered untreatable before our research." I felt a surge of admiration for Alexander. "That's incredible work." "We couldn't do

OliviaApplause filled the room as James accepted congratulations from those around him. He caught my eye briefly and nodded in acknowledgment before turning his attention back to his table companions. "Ladies and gentlemen, our final item of the evening: a luxury ski weekend at the exclusive Montage Deer Valley. This package includes private jet transportation, a three-bedroom mountainside villa, lift tickets, and private ski instruction. Bidding starts at twenty thousand dollars." "Twenty-five," called a woman from a table near ours. The bidding escalated quickly, with several interested parties driving the price up. Victoria entered the fray at forty thousand, clearly keen on winning this particular prize. "Fifty thousand," she called, giving Alexander a smug look. "Sixty," countered a man near the back. Victoria frowned but quickly raised her paddle again. "Seventy thousand." The other bidders dropped out one by one until only Victoria remained. The auctioneer was about to

OliviaVictoria stood behind him, her smile smug. "I led several campaigns that doubled their online engagement and increased conversion rates." "Olivia is incredibly talented," Alexander added, his hand finding the small of my back. "We're lucky to have her at Carter Enterprises, regardless of our personal relationship." "How fortunate for everyone," Victoria interjected. "Though I imagine it must be difficult to navigate the professional-personal boundary. Office romances can be so... complicated." "Not when you're both adults," I replied with a pointed look at Victoria. "Communication and mutual respect make everything simpler." Mr. Preston looked between us, clearly sensing the tension. "Well, this has been enlightening. If you'll excuse me, I should find my wife before the auction closes." As he walked away, Victoria's smile faded. "Really, Olivia? 'Communication and mutual respect'? How very Hallmark card of you." "I find sincerity works better than sarcasm in most situat

AlexanderI spotted James approaching through the crowd, his usual confident smirk firmly in place. No doubt coming to gloat about winning the Basquiat sketch. "Alexander," he greeted with practiced ease, champagne glass in hand. "Quite the evening. Though I must say, it's rare to see you lose a bidding war." I extended my hand, forcing a pleasant smile. "James. Congratulations on the sketch. You certainly wanted it badly." "Not as badly as you did, apparently." His eyes gleamed with satisfaction. "Seven hundred thousand seemed to be your breaking point." "The difference between us, James, is that I know when something isn't worth the cost." I kept my tone light, as if we were discussing the weather rather than his attempt to publicly one-up me. "Always the businessman. Though I wonder if your grandfather would agree with your assessment of worth." "My grandfather understands value better than most." I placed my hand on Olivia's back, drawing her slightly closer. "Besides, we ca

Chapter 146

AlexanderHarold wheeled himself over to our group. "What are we discussing so seriously over here?" "Valentina's absence," Julia explained. "She's at a friend's birthday party." "Good for her," Harold declared, surprising us all. "The girl works too hard. Needs to live a little." "That's rich coming from you," I said with a laugh. "Mr. Work-Is-Everything himself." Harold's eyes twinkled. "I've learned a few things in my old age. One of them is that all work and no play makes for a dull life and even duller company." He looked pointedly at me. "Something you might remember yourself, Alexander." Olivia bit back a smile. "I believe I'm balancing things better these days," I replied. "Yes, marriage seems to agree with you," Harold observed, his shrewd eyes missing nothing. "You look happier than I've seen you in years." I glanced down at Olivia, who was fighting a smile at my grandfather's comment. "It does," I agreed, surprising myself with how genuine the words felt. "Olivia ha

AlexanderWhen we finally arrived at the estate, Alfred was waiting to greet us, despite the late hour. "Good evening, Mr. Carter, Mrs. Carter," he said with a slight bow. "I trust the gala was enjoyable?" "It was, thank you, Alfred," I replied. "You didn't need to wait up." "No trouble at all, sir." His eyes crinkled at the corners. "Mrs. Carter, shall I bring some tea to your room?" "That would be lovely," Olivia said, and I noted how easily she'd adapted to having staff. "Thank you, Alfred." "Very good, madam. I'll have it sent up shortly." As Alfred disappeared toward the kitchen, Olivia kicked off her heels with a sigh of relief. "These shoes are gorgeous but absolutely murderous." "Want me to carry you upstairs?" I offered, only half-joking. "I think I can manage," she laughed, picking up her shoes. "But I appreciate the chivalry." We made our way upstairs to our bedroom suite. Olivia immediately headed for the bathroom to remove her makeup, while I loosened my tie and

AlexanderOur bodies pressed together, skin to skin, and I groaned at the contact. Her nipples brushed against my chest, sending sparks of electricity through me. I kissed my way down her neck, across her collarbone, back to her breasts. "Your tits are fucking perfect," I murmured, my fingers expertly cupping both of her beautiful breasts in my hands. I could feel her breath hitch in her throat as I gently squeezed, eliciting a quiet sigh of pleasure from her lips. Encouraged by her reaction, I leaned down, flicking my tongue teasingly across one of her hardened nipples, tasting the sweetness of her skin and delighting in the way she responded to my touch. My hand had slipped between her legs, finding her already wet. I ran my finger along her slit, gathering moisture before circling her clit. "You're so wet," I whispered, continuing to play with her breast with my other hand. "Alex, please," she moaned, hips rising to meet my touch. I slid one finger inside her, feeling her wal

Alexander"Are you okay?" I asked, brushing hair from her face. Her pupils were blown wide, and her lips parted as she panted softly. "Yes," she nodded, experimentally rolling her hips. I groaned at the movement, my fingers digging into her hips. "Start moving, Liv. Show me how that pussy works." She began to rise and fall on my length, establishing a rhythm that had us both moaning. Her breasts bounced tantalizingly with each movement, and I couldn't resist leaning forward to capture one nipple in my mouth. "Alex!" she cried out, her pace faltering as I sucked hard on the sensitive peak. "Don't stop," I commanded, releasing her nipple with a wet pop. "Keep fucking me." Olivia resumed her movements, finding her confidence as she rode me with increasing enthusiasm. I helped guide her with my hands on her hips, occasionally thrusting up to meet her downward motion. "Fuck, that's it," I praised, watching where our bodies joined. "Your pussy looks so good stretching around my cock.

Chapter 150

OliviaI wrapped my fingers around the oversized coffee mug on my desk, inhaling the rich aroma that promised to jumpstart my brain. The Thompson Hotels project file lay open before me, pages of market research and competitor analysis spread across my desk in organized chaos. Two weeks into my new role as Senior Marketing Strategist, I was finally finding my rhythm.My office phone buzzed, and Dylan's voice came through the speaker. "Mrs. Carter, I've compiled the demographic reports you requested for Thompson. Also, this is a reminder that we have a site visit scheduled for 11 a.m."I pressed the intercom button. "Thanks, Dylan. I'll be ready to leave in twenty minutes."I turned back to my notes, scribbling additional ideas for the Thompson rebrand. The luxury hotel chain had been losing market share to trendier boutique hotels that better captured the attention of younger travelers. Our job was to help them reclaim their position without alienating their loyal customer base.A soft
