Now she couldn't care less about food when the rest of her life depended on what happens between them. She couldn't postpone it any longer. Maybe tonight won't be the last. Maybe.

"The launch is coming near" Lucien mutters while intensely staring at Xander before his eyes trail toward Zachary, Braiyden, Asher, and Gabriel. They are enjoying a drink in the CEO's office after meeting with the investors. "Have you talked to Alek?" Lucien turns to Xander. "Yes, last night. We've discussed a lot of things" Xander nods.

It still doesn’t feel real. After the product launch, I’ll be handing in my resignation and officially diving into the startup. After a few more seconds of unproductive tapping, I shut the laptop and decide to take a nap instead. But of course, the universe has other plans—the door to my office swings open like someone could sense my escape attempt.

Malcolm's eyes lit up immediately. "You mean, you want to take me with you?" Margaret rolled her eyes. "Not take you with me.
