Adrian gasped softly before melting into the embrace, wrapping his arms around Matteo's broad shoulders and hugging him back just as tightly.
"If I had the power to buy you an entire building, Rian," Matteo murmured against his hair, his voice filled with unwavering devotion, "did you really think I hadn't already planned to set the whole thing up for you?"
Adrian pulled back slightly, his eyes widening as he opened his mouth to speak.
Before he could say a word, Matteo gently pressed a finger to his lips. "Take your card back. You're not spending a single cent of your own money. I'm going to build this entire company in your name, exactly how you want it. And yes, I'm still paying you every single dollar of the groom price you asked for."
Realization and overwhelming warmth washed over Adrian. His chest ached with how deeply he was loved, and he immediately wrapped his arms around Matteo's neck again, burying his face against his shoulder.
