Enchanted by Emily’s demeanor, Alexander found an unexpected cuteness in her.

With a soft laugh, he hopped into his car and made his way to where Ethan was. 

The destination was a posh bar, a standout in the area. It was the kind of place where only the wealthy and well–connected hung out. 

As a regular, Alexander was immediately surrounded by waiters upon entering. “Mr. Lessing, which room for tonight? That sweet young girl you fancied last time is available. How about I send her over?” 

“Not interested. I’m here to see someone,” Alexander replied curtly. 

“Sure thing, Mr. Lessing. Those girls you once complimented as sexy, cute, and innocent are all free. Just holler if you change your mind.” 

Alexander gave a skeptical look. “When on earth did I say that about anyone?” 

The waiter glanced at Emily and quickly backpedaled. “You didn’t. My mistake.” 

“Damn right I didn’t. A one–woman man like me is a rare breed

in LA,” Alexander quipped. 

The waiter forced a smile and backed off.

Fearing Emily might doubt him, Alexander quickly explained, “Sweetheart, don’t listen to the rumors. Get to know me, and you’ll see how devoted I can be.” 

Emily looked up at him, silent and expressionless. 

Seeing her non–reaction, Alexander sighed, “Oh well, you’ll come around someday.” 

With that, he draped his arm around Emily’s shoulder and strolled deeper into the bar. 

They halted in front of the door marked 999. 

Alexander gave it a hard kick, and it flew open. Everyone inside turned their heads in surprise. 

Emily then spotted Ethan sitting in the middle, flanked by 

Andrew and Shawn. 

Both Andrew and Shawn had voluptuous women sitting beside them, dressed in next to nothing. 

Strutting in with Emily, Alexander approached the table. With a quick movement, he knocked the bottles and cans off the table, and they crashed to the floor. 

The shattering glass and sloshing liquid made a racket. 2/5

He pulled out a silk scarf, laid it on the table, then moved the table aside and gently guided Emily to sit on it. 

Facing the group, Emily noted Ethan’s calmness. His face was a mask of tranquility. 

Andrew, on the other hand, looked ready to pounce, while Shawn just furrowed his brows. 

The women beside Andrew and Shawn were visibly shaken. They pulled up their clothes and eyed Alexander warily. 

“Sweetheart, ask your questions. I’ll make sure no one messes with you,” Alexander said coolly, though his eyes had a threatening look. 

His gaze swept across the group, intimidating them with his 

presence. 

Ethan remained unperturbed, looking up at Alexander with an air of superiority. 

Emily, looking at him, was initially surprised by his solitude but then assumed he was being faithful to Nancy. 

“Alexander, who do you think you are, causing a ruckus here?” Andrew stood up, fuming. 

A slight arch of an eyebrow, and Alexander fixed his piercing gaze on Andrew. “Yeah, I’m making a fuss. What are you gonna do, huh?”

Rendered speechless, Andrew rolled up his sleeves, itching for a fight. But Shawn stepped in. “Chill, Andrew. Don’t do something stupid.” 

Andrew was on the verge of calling Shawn a wuss, but bit back the insult. Just then, Ethan’s voice cut through the air. “You two, 

out.” 

Without hesitation, Shawn grabbed Andrew, and the pair made their way out of the private room. Inside, only Emily, Ethan, and Alexander remained. 

Emily turned to Alexander, tilting her head slightly. Her silent gesture clearly conveyed that she wanted him to leave, too. 

But Alexander wasn’t going to budge that easily. He plopped down beside her, stating firmly, “Nah, I’m not leaving you alone 

in here.” 

However, seeing the determination in Emily’s eyes, Alexander finally gave in. He stood up and said, “Okay, I’ll wait right outside. Holler if you need me.” 

“Thanks,” Emily murmured. 

Alexander leaned in, tucking a loose strand of hair behind Emily’s ear with his fingers. In a joking but serious tone, he said, “We’ll be family soon. None of that formal crap. I’d go to the ends of the earth for you, sweetie 

Emily, used to Alexander’s banter, didn’t give his words a

second thought. 

The moment Alexander stepped out, the room fell into a deafening silence. 

Emily glanced at Ethan. He seemed to be in a mood to ignore her, keeping his lips sealed.
