Chapter 44 Invitation

The com seemed to hold its breath as he opened the box again, revealing a dazzling diamond ring. For a moment, Lisa was speechless, her hand flying to her mouth as tears welled up in her eyes. "I-I will marry you, Alexander Harris!"

A surge

e of joy and relief washed over her as Alex slipped the ring onto her finger. It was a moment she had dreamed of, and now it was finally coming true. Lisa felt her worries melt away, replaced by a sense of elation and anticipation for their future together As Alex stood up, a smile lighting up his face, he revealed another surprise-a Cartier bag

Lisa's eyes widened once more, her heart skipping a beat at the sight of the luxurious gift. "What's this?" She took the bag eagerly, her hands trembling with excitement.

"Open it," Alex urged, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Lisa carefully opened the bag and found a jewelry box inside. As she lifted the lid, her breath caught in her throat. Nestled within was a stunning piece of jewelry,

"Oh, Alex, it's beautiful," Lisa exclaimed, her eyes shining with tears of joy. She threw her arms around him, pulling him into a tight embrace. "Thank you, thank you so much. But this is all too much, Alex."

Alex returned her embrace, his heart swelling with happiness at her reaction. "You deserve it, Lisa. I want to make you happy, and 1 don't care how much I spend as long as it makes you happy." "I'm so lucky to have you."

"I think I should be the one who said that." Alec chuckled lightly. "I'm going to go freshen up."

Lisa nodded; a soft smile grace her lips.

As they savored the moment together, Alex excused himself to go to the bathroom, leaving Lisa alone with her thoughts. As soon as he was out of sight, Lisa's expression shifted from joy to a sly smirk

"I hate crying."

She wiped away a few stray tears, her mind racing with thoughts. She hadn't expected Alex to fall for her act so easily. Lisa had played the part of the loving, devoted girlfriend perfectly, but deep down, her motivations were far from genuine. "I didn't thought he will fall so easily." She muttered to herself.

Gazing at the diamond ring on her finger, Lisa's smirk widened. She was one step closer to her ultimate goal-becoming Mrs. Harris. The thought of the wealth and status that would come with marrying Alex fueled her imagination.

Lisa's mind was already plotting her next moves. She had secured her place in Alex's life, and now she would use that position to further her own ambitions, no matter the cost.
