Leander paced the marble floors of his office, a mixture of frustration and satisfaction swirling within him. He’d just received news about Benjamin standing up to Rex at Opal Haven. The image of Rex’s stunned face after the slap made Leander smile. Benjamin had finally shown the confidence Leander knew he possessed.He leaned against his desk, the city skyline sprawling out behind him, a mix of skyscrapers and shimmering lights. His phone buzzed on the table, snapping him out of his thoughts. It was Elaine, his ever-efficient secretary.“Leander, are you in the office?” she asked through the phone, her voice smooth and professional.“Yes, I am. What’s up?”“Could you come to my office for a moment? I have an idea that might be of interest to you.”“Sure. I’ll be right there.”Leander made his way down the hall, his mind still on Benjamin. As he entered Elaine’s office, he found her sitting at her desk, an array of luxury gift catalogs spread out before her.“Leander, perfect timing,”

Leander leaned back in his plush office chair, twirling a pen between his fingers as he pondered over the gifts for Brianna. A stunning handbag and a breathtaking necklace were already in the works, but something deeper tugged at his mind—something that would truly sweep her off her feet. “Elaine,” he called, breaking the focused silence that enveloped the office. She looked up from her tablet, her brow raised in inquiry. “Yes, Leander?” “What do you think about getting Brianna a custom Rolls-Royce?” Elaine’s eyes widened in surprise, a smile breaking across her face. “A Rolls-Royce? That’s bold. Are you sure? Isn’t that a bit over the top?” Leander leaned forward, resting his elbows on his desk. “Not if it’s for Brianna. She deserves something extraordinary. I want to give her a gift that shows how much she means to me. Plus, I know how much she appreciates fine craftsmanship.” Elaine nodded, her excitement palpable. “You have a point. A Rolls-Royce would definitely make a sta

Rex leaned against the bar in the exclusive lounge, a sly smile spreading across his face as he watched the elite mingle around him. His eyes narrowed in on Wyatt Crowley, Leander’s billionaire friend. Rex had never liked Wyatt; he found the man insufferably charming and obnoxiously wealthy. But more than that, he was close to Leander, which made him a target.The bar was alive with laughter and clinking glasses, the air thick with the scent of expensive cologne and freshly mixed cocktails. Rex’s posture was relaxed, but his mind was racing with thoughts on how to undermine Leander’s growing reputation. He wanted Brianna to see the truth about Leander—a truth he was determined to twist in his favor.“Hey, Rex!” A voice interrupted his scheming. It was Camila, her eyes sparkling with mischief as she joined him at the bar. “What are you plotting over here?”Rex smirked, gesturing to Wyatt and the investors. “Just thinking about how to take Leander down a peg. He’s gotten too comfortable

“She’s stable, but she’s still unconscious. We’re monitoring her closely, and the doctors will update you as soon as they have more information,” the nurse explained. “We’re doing everything we can.”Rex nodded, feeling a glimmer of hope. “Thank you. Can I stay with her?”“Not right now, but you can wait here. I’ll let you know when you can see her,” the nurse said before stepping out again.Rex settled back into the chair, his mind racing. He thought about all the memories he had with Camila—their late-night talks, the laughter they shared, the way she always managed to lift his spirits when he was down. He couldn’t lose her.He glanced at the clock on the wall, counting down the minutes until he could see her. As time dragged on, worry gnawed at his insides. He couldn’t shake the feeling that he needed to be by her side, to reassure her that he was there.Finally, after what felt like hours, the doctor returned. “You can see her now,” he said, his expression more relaxed. “We’ve sta
