Alexander noticed she had something on her n
mind but didn’t push
Suddenly, his phone tang. Seeling it was Esme, he hung up. When she called again, he put his phone on silent.

Alexander looked at her. “Are you giving me dating advice?”

Alexander met her eyes. “I won’t harm the Percy family,” he said. Now and in the future, he wouldn’t.
Elizabeth nodded, feeling relieved.
“If your family ever needs help, don’t hesitate to ask,” Alexander said calmly.
