Laura gently shook her head, softly saying, âItâs not what you think.
â
Alexis let out a mischievous laugh, playfully tapping Lauraâs nose.
âThen what is it? Is it that Edwin isnât good in bed? He seems strong enough to me, and he has a pretty straight nose.
â
Lauraâs cheeks flushed a bit, signaling her reluctance to continue the conversation.
Alexis found herself Liking Laura more and more.
Perhaps it was just an affinity she felt, or maybe it was because Laura was connected to Edwin, carrying a scent that Vanessa certainly did not.
Back in business mode, Alexis began dealing with her official duties before securing the necklace around Lauraâs neck again.
Jett, her assistant, complained about the resignation of two assistant secretaries, making the workload difficult to manage.
Alexis, taking a sip of her coffee, nonchalantly suggested, âThen recruit new ones.
And try to find ones that look like Laura, easy on the eyes.
â
Jett couldnât help but think his boss had some unique preferences.

In that moment, Alexisâ phone interrupted the silence with its ring.
It was Edwin on the other end.
Lazily picking up, Alexis greeted, âWhatâs up?â
Edwinâs voice carried a sense of urgency.
âDid Laura stop by?â
Alexis, leisurely propping her legs on the desk, replied with a light chuckle, âYeah! We had coffee, even napped together!â
âAlexis Fowler!â Edwinâs tone was filled with frustration.

âNot thrilled about it? Well, you should know, Laura seems to like me,â Alexis teased.
Edwin, visibly annoyed, retorted, âStay away from her!â
Alexis clucked her tongue playfully.
âSince when did our Mr.
Evans become so insecure? But you should remember, your current girlfriend is Vanessa.
Worry about her, not little Laura.
â
With that, Edwin ended the call abruptly.
Alexis, unfazed, tossed her phone aside, shrugged at Jett, and joked, âSuch a sour loser.
Canât even take a joke!â
Jett couldnât help but chuckle at the exchange.
