Meanwhile.
Asher was playing snooker with several friends at an exclusive gentlemen’s club.
Alexander chalked his cue, a cigarette dangling from his lips as he teased casually: “Well, well, look who’s graced us with his presence. How is it you have time for us tonight, Asher? Not picking up your precious
Thalia from work?”

It had been ages since he’d joined them for a get–together.
After the incident at the engagement ceremony and his hospital stay, Asher and Thalia’s relationship had grown even closer. He made time almost daily to pick her up from work.

William cleared his throat. “Actually, I’m seeing someone at the moment.”
“What?” Alexander’s jaw dropped, his mouth hanging open, his cigarette falling. “What did you just say?

William nodded.
“You never mentioned it. Which family is she from? The Kensington set? Or perhaps old Westminster money?” Alexander’s curiosity was piqued.
