How ridiculous! Tangafer bl found hemel in the inches with the stuntless Alexander, only in his pajamas, fabric clinging to his Chapter 74 Sofia felt a wave of warmth wash over her. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating Alexander, who stood shirtless at the counter. He turned, a playful grin spreading across his face.

He gestured towards a plate piled high with golden brown pancakes, crispy bacon, and fluffy scrambled eggs.

Beside it sat a steaming mug of coffee and a delectable-looking Monte Cristo sandwich cut in half Sofia’s stomach rumbled, betraying her earlier denial of the entiting aroma. The sight of the breakfast spread, with its mix of comforting classics and a touch of indulgence, made her smile widen Wow, the breathed, stepping closer. This looks amazing He winked. Thought something hearty was in order after last nights adventures.” His words sent a blush creeping up her neck. “Coffee?” he asked.

“Yes, please this. “You umbled, “Make it black. No sugar.” She needed the bitterness of the coffee to make her wake up from all tell anyone that you made breakfast for me, they probably won't believe me.” She smiled.

This man was feared in the business world! No one would believe that he had the habit of making breakfast for a woman.

“I don’t usually inake breakfast for anyone.

Taking a tenutive bite of the fluffy pancakes, Sofia savored the sweet, buttery flavor. This is seriously good.” she mumbled through a mouthful.

“I and taking that as a compliment.” Sofia smiled. This was not the first tthat she tried his cooking but it still amazes her every time. To be honest, just the fact that he is a very good cook was something that she would not associate with his persona in the business world.

“It’s already noon...” he said. “Are you still planning to work? You can call Miss Amores and have your files sent here.” “No. There's no need. | have a meeting in the afternoon with the board,” Sofia said. “How about you?” “I can have my meeting in the office.” “Oh...” Sofia nodded before she took a sip of her coffee. As expected, the bitterness jolted her awake. It was like a kick in the, head- a good kick, of course.

“I received a call that Daniel wanted to get inside the building last night. | asked the security not to let him in a few weeks ago. | believe he realized that we are still together and wanted to come.” To Sofia’s surprise, the mention of Daniel’s ndid not immediately ruin her mood. In fact, she felt like this was but a casual conversation about an acquaintance. She lifted her head and looked at him. “Are you going to tellwhy you actually decided to offermarriage?” “What do you mean?” “I meant...” Sofia composed herself. To her, the best tto talk about crucial issues is while both of them are in a good mood! “You can get my shares without marrying me.” “I just wanted to keep you safe. | don’t want you suddenly changing your mind and marrying my brother instead.” “That's it?” she asked. She refused to believe that he did not have ssort of mysterious reason for marrying her.

“That and....

you are my fiancée.

Sofia could only nod in response. She thought about the past, trying her best to recall if she was engaged when she was younger, but she couldn't remember anything After breakfast. Daniel took her to Jenny Thomas's house, where he showed her images of their parents hose were images of Sofia’s father and Alexander's mother at-“Sofia was unable to say a word.

Jenny rolled her eyes. “However, we lost contact with your father when he went to Europe Jenny made a deliberate pause. The next thing we knew, he- he already passed. It took us a long tto realize that he had a daughter.

-So- “I told Alexander about you when | heard that you were Daniel’s girlfriend.” Jenny said. “Naturally. | did not want Daniel to marry you instead.” Jenny pointed at another image of her. Alexander's mother, and Sofia’s father together.

Who would have thought that they actually knew each other? Sofia would never have thought about this! However, everything was really clear. There was even a yearbook of them! It seems that they went to the shigh school and becfriends: The thought of her father somehow made her chest a little heavy. She wondered what life would be if her mother did not marry Lawrence. If she was still with Sofia’s father.

Surely, her mother would be alive and well.

“Can you tellabout my father?” Sofia asked. Sadly, she doesn’t know anything about the man because her mother did not say much about him. When Sofia was big enough to understand, she already accepted Lawrence as her new father.

“Of course.” Jenny smiled and started talking about Sofia’s father After hours of laughter, Sofia and Alexander left Jenny's house with a smile on their faces. Sofia actually spent the rest of the day at Jenny’s house! However, she was able to casually do it without guilt as she was also there for another business.

Sofia wanted Jenny to becthe new ambassador of LH Design, and Jenny agreed without asking any questions.

“Thank you...” Sofia smiled as Alexander drove back to his place.

“For what?” “For everything...” Sofia said, Alexander did not need to tell her why he did not tell her about their parents’ connection when they met. She understood that the man wanted to save her from Daniel, and what better way to do it than to show her Daniel's true colors? 3/4 4/4 98%[] Chapter 74 Knowing about her Tatler, despite the bittersweet nature of it, bought a sense of closure. It wasn’t just about filling the gaps. it was about understanding her own story, the one that had shaped her into the woman she is today.

As Alexander drove the familiar streets of Springfield seemed diferent, imbued with a new layer of meaning They held not just memories but also a connection to her heritage, a thread that stretched back in tand intertwined with the man beside her.

A soft smile tugged at her lips as she turned and stared at his side profile. However, this smile did not last too long when she saw two police officers waiting for them in the lobby of their place.

“Are you Miss Sofia Lockhart?” “Yes,” Sofa frowned, her heart already racing against her chest.

“Then please cwith us to the hospital. the police officer said. “We are here investigating a woman that we found this afternoon, and we have reasons to believe that the woman is someone that you know very well SEND GIFT COMMENT 0
