Chapter 109

“Alexander? I really need to speak with you about Ben Wilde.

It’s urgent.“‘

“Come in.”

Olivia sighed then pushed the door open. She stepped into the

room to find Alexander had changed from his business attire

into a casual button–down shirt and dark jeans. It made him

look more approachable, but Olivia was still wary..

“I’m sorry for disturbing you. But I received two messages from Steven regarding Ben Wilde. Ben suggested postponing today’s

scheduled events until tomorrow, and instead invited you to a

wine tasting at his private villa by 7pm. I came to inform you

earlier, but you didn’t answer.”

Olivia’s cheeks grew warm as she continued. She didn’t want it to appear like she was scolding her boss. But she needed him to

properly understand the situation.

“So I took it upon myself to have Steven keep Ben waiting for a response. He seems quite eager to meet.”

Alexander simply nodded. “I see what you’re doing. And you don’t need to worry about it, Olivia. You handled the situation

appropriately.””

Alexander moved toward his dresser, pulled out a watch and

fastened it around his wrist. “Please let Ben know that I’ll be
