The moment I saw the news, I immediately got out of bed and started getting ready for work.
But while I was downstairs having breakfast, Jane arrived at the villa to brief me on the situation.
"The fire caused a huge stir online," she explained seriously. "Mr. Blackwood has been dealing with the aftermath since last night. He'll be flying to B City personally today."
Maria quickly went upstairs to prepare Alexander's luggage while Jane continued reviewing several documents in her hands.
Not long after, Maria came back down carrying a neatly packed suitcase, which Jane took before leaving in a hurry.
The villa suddenly became quiet again.
I stood there staring at the empty living room for a moment, my brows slowly furrowing.
Instinctively, I took out my phone.
My fingers hovered over Alexander's contact for several seconds.
But in the end…
I still didn't call him.
After calming myself down, I drove to the company.
