The pleasure is mine, Mr. Kingsman." "I understand you're Alexander Black's fiancée,” he said, his tone carrying both curiosity and warmth. "I've had the honor of working with Alexander for quite stime, and I've often wondered what kind of woman could finally steal his heart." I chuckled softly. "I like to think he gave it freely." Mr. Kingsman laughed, his eyes crinkling with amusement. "Touché. I'm sure he has." He gestured toward the seating area. "So, Miss Rowan, what brings you to my shop today? Were you hoping to have a dress made?" "Actually," I began, hesitating slightly, "I was hoping you could helpwith a surprise for Alexander." "A surprise for Alexander Black?" His brows lifted in mock disbelief. "Now that's a tall order. But if anyone can make it happen, it's me. Tell me, what did you have in mind? Accessories, perhaps? Cufflinks? A new tie?" I shook my head, smiling. “A custom outfit,” I said. “Something designed and made just for him. And, preferably, without him knowing." He tilted his head, considering. "I see. And is there a particular occasion for this surprise?" "I want to take him out for a nice date," I explained, smiling softly. "Something laid back and relaxing. He needs a break from things. I haven't decided on the details yet, but I know an outfit like this will take tto make, so I thought it was best to speak with you first." Mr. Kingsman looked thoughtful, then smiled warmly. "Well, I look forward to hearing what you plan. I must admit, I'm curious about what you'll decide on. As for the outfit, I can make tto create something for Alexander in secret. If you leave your phone number, I'll text you sketches for approval before I start cutting the fabric. I'll also send the pricing details that way." "That sounds perfect," I said, my smile widening. It felt like things were falling into place. I was genuinely excited about the prospect of showing Alexander even a small token of gratitude for everything he'd done for me.
The arrangement between us was supposed to be equal, yet it felt like he was always coming to my rescue. This was my chance to start evening the scales.
"Well, with that settled, may I ask you something?" Mr. Kingsman's expression shifted slightly, a hint of concern appearing.
"Of course," I replied.
"Do you know if Alexander is getting his wedding suit made elsewhere?" he asked, his brows knitting together. Your wedding isn't far off-at least, according to the news and he hasn't cin to speak withabout his suit." "He hasn't said anything to you at all?" I asked, surprised.

"I'll speak to him about it," I said, reassured by his candor "I'm heading to see him right after this, so I'll make sure to bring it up."
"Just a gentle reminder," he said with a slight smile. “I'm sure he's busin with all the other details of wedding planning, but I'd hate for him to forget." "Of course," I replied, returning his smile. “Thank you for lettingknow." "It was my pleasure, Miss Rowan," he said with a polite, bow. "And thank you for gracing us with your presence today." "Thank you for making the tto see us," I said to Mr. Kingsman before leaving my phone number with the receptionist.
Elizabeth, James, and I exited the tailor shop shortly after.
Once we were out of earshot, Elizabeth leaned toward me. "Should we be concerned that Alexander doesn't have a suit yet?"
