Even though their separation was orchestrated by others and Anthony's hospitalization had nothing to do with him, the man in front of her had beca thing of the past. She had to get used to a life without Alexander.
Aveline stood respectfully on the side, her voice steady as she said, "Mr. Sterling, I've brought the proposal." Alexander didn't open his eyes, his handsbrows furrowed. "Chere." Aveline walked to his side with the proposal in hand. "If you're too tired, Mr. Sterling, I can read it for you." In the past, when Alexander was busy, she would do this. He would rest while she read and then he would tell her his decisions for her to handle.

The documents scattered on the ground as her delicate wrist propped against Alexander's solid chest. Nora should still be displaying her authority as the CEO's wife in other departments, yet Alexander was embracing his ex-wife in his office.
The situation felt quite chaotic to Aveline.
"Mr. Sterling, what are you doing?" she asked, feeling at a loss.
She met his just-opened black eyes, which held no resentment or indulgence, as calm as a lake, making it hard for her to read his thoughts.
"I heard you caused quite a stir in the company today." "How much of it is related to you?" 19:37 Refusing To Be His Perfect Replica, I Choose The Ar 32.6% Chapter 242 The person behind the scenes only captured her and Mr. Weber entering the hotel, but there were no substantial photos of her interacting with Mr. Weber. That was why Aveline guessed it had nothing to do with Lilith.
If Lilith were the one who did the expose, there would need to be closer photos. It was clear that the person was lurking near the door.
If Alexander hadn't taken her to the rooftop and she hadn't changed her clothes, this incident might not have happened.
Alexander raised an eyebrow. "Blme?" "I wouldn't dare." "Speaking of which, you're quite something. You've only been working for less than a week and you've managed to offend everyone in the department from top to bottom." Alexander lifted a strand of her hair that fell near her ear.

Thinking about how angry he had been just because she mentioned something related to Layla last night, not to mention that the other party was closely monitoring her, she couldn't risk alerting them.
The words that were about to cout of Aveline's mouth were swallowed back down. She looked at Alexander with a helpless expression. "I cto work, but I need someone to givea chance. You've seen it too.

But Aveline, unlike before, was on the verge of blowing the roof off.
