a complicated puzzle he hadn’t anticipated. He mulled over his future interactions with her, knowing full

well that any misstep could trigger a chain reaction involving both their influential families.

“I need to tread carefully,” Lennox thought to himself. “Any conflict with Emma could force me back to

the Hartleys, something I’ve been avoiding

Turning to Alex, Lennox prodded, “You’ve made quite a name for yourself, starting from nothing. Have

you ever considered challenging Emma head–on? Your paths must have crossed in the business

world.”

Alex, caught off guard by the question, pondered for a moment. “Emma and I have our separate paths.

My focus is on growing my business, not entangling myself in unnecessary rivalries,” he replied, firmly

believing in maintaining a professional distance from Emma, despite their shared history.

Lennox nodded, understanding the delicate balance Alex strived to maintain.

Elsewhere, Emma and Desmond’s outing was unfolding under the shadow of Alex’s presence. Their

interaction was strained, with Emma’s attention divided and Desmond’s frustration growing

Emma, slightly taken aback, replied with a mixture of exasperation and clarity, “Alex was a significant

part of my life. It’s not easy to just erase those feelings. But we’re divorced now, and I’m moving

earned my place.”

Bella remained strangely silent, wary of the potential fallout from engaging in the spat.

As Emma and Desmond left the restaurant, they unexpectedly became the subjects of a paparazzo’s

interest. Desmond was flustered, but Emma remained composed, instructing him to monitor the

situation closely.

“Make sure this doesn’t spiral out of control. I can’t afford negative publicity right now,” she said,

her tone serious..

Desmond nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. “I’ll handle it,” he assured her,

As they parted ways, Emma couldn’t help but reflect on the complex web of relationships and rivalries

that surrounded her. Each encounter, each conversation, added another layer to the intricate tapestry

of her life. She knew the path ahead wouldn’t be easy, but she was ready to face whatever challenges

came her way.
