Claire's frown deepened as she stared at Alex. "What are you talking about, Alex?"

Alex, feeling his frustration bubble over, snapped, "Why didn't you want to have dinner with me?"

Claire sighed, a wave of exhaustion washing over her.

This again.

"This is a never-ending situation, Alex. I'm getting tired of it. I'm not bound to say yes to every word you say,"

Alex's expression darkened. "Back in London, when I asked you out for dinner, you declined, saying you were busy. But then I saw you with Adrian at a restaurant."

Claire crossed her arms over her chest, meeting his gaze steadily. "So?"

Alex felt a fresh wave of frustration. "Why do you never want to have dinner with me? Is it because you feel embarrassed that I know about your past?"

In an instant, Claire's eyes turned cold. She pointed a finger at his chest in a threatening way. "Just because you know about my past doesn't mean we're friends, Alex. We're only business partners and nothing more." Alex took a deep breath, trying to keep his temper in check. "Do you like Adrian?"

Claire scoffed, shaking her head. "It's my business who I like, and you don't need to know."

Alex took a step closer, catching her off guard. He placed a hand on her bare back, leaning in so their breaths mingled.

"It is my business because I was once your husband."

Claire chuckled sarcastically and grabbed his tie, pulling him closer until their faces were only inches apart. "Ex-husband," she sneered before pushing him away and walking off.
