Curious about the man Lisa was so crazy about, her mother asked, "So, who's this guy you're crazy about?"

Lisa's eyes lit up as she replied, "You will be surprised. It's Alexander Harris, the CEO of Harris Hotel." Her mother's eyes widened in surprise. "Alex Haris? I can't believe you're aiming that high." she exclaimed, a mix of excitement and curiosity in her voice. Moving closer to Lisa, her mother asked eagerly, "Why didn't the marriage happen? Tell me everything."

Lisa sighed, annoyed at having to recount the story yet again. "It's a long story. But in short, Alex found out about my lies from his ex-wife, and he feels betrayed so that's why the marriage did not happen." she admitted, her tone tinged with regret.

Her mother's expression softened, and she placed a comforting hand on Lisa's shoulder. "Don't worry, sweetheart. I'll help you win him back. A man like him will be easy to sway." she promised.
