Alexander pivoted, confronting Getty's look of surprise. "What's truly transpiring here?" he inquired.
Getty gathered her composure, her arms snaking around his waist. "I simply missed you," she confessed.
His stare pierced her, a silent weight heavy with unspoken words.
Overwhelmed by guilt, Getty averted her gaze, her words tumbling out in a stutter. "I was merely concerned for you, fearful you might be in some trouble, and, oh―"
She delved into her purse, extracting a card. "Accept this," she offered.
Alexander's gaze flickered over the bank card, but he made no move to accept it.
"I've sold my unused items, such as clothing and handbags, even the cars I never drove. I'm in the process of having the house appra ised; once it's sold, the proceeds will be deposited onto this card," Getty elucidated. "The house alone could garner around $8 million. Including everything else, the total could reach nearly $200 million. And then there's my most recent paycheck..."
"Getty," Alexander interjected, halting her mid-sentence.
She stilled, her eyes wide with bewilderment as she gazed at him. "What's wrong?"
Alexander gently took the card from her grasp, sliding it back into her jacket pocket. "This isn't necessary."
