Alexander tensed, his frustration rising.

Daniela continued, “In business, profit outweighs sentiment. Love is too abstract to interest me. I don’t rely on sweet words to secure resources. So, while I appreciate the offer, I’ll have to decline.”

A sense of unease crept over Alexander. Something felt seriously off. Why was she speaking to him like he was just another business associate?

But I’m not someone who fawns over others, and I have no intention of accepting favors I didn’t ask for.”
