Chapter 45
“So, am I going to send the gifts to her, or do I need to go see her myself?” Xander looked at his sister desperately after she showed him everything she had gotten from the mall.
“I spent ”
“Sixty thousand on everything. I saw the debit alert, I know you scammed me, but not to worry, I’m not bothered about that. So, can you tell me what to do now?” He leaned forward, his eyes piercing into hers desperately, and she scoffed.
“Are you this desperate…” She rolled her eyes and ticked her tongue.
“I will pack everything up in a gift bag. You should send it to her instead and ask her out on a date. Make sure to add a handwritten letter, pouring out your heart into it. I’m sure that’ll work for a start, Lisa suggested, and he nodded.
“Do I need to print the letter”
“I’m sure you were here when I said a handwritten letter, am I right?” She crossed her legs and reclined on the chair.
“Oh… Alright. I will do that. But, who do you think I should send to give her the gift? I think she might reject it if I send Nick, Xander muttered, reclining on the chair, and her face brightened as she leaned forward.
“Talking about Nick… You didn’t tell me you have such a cutie as your assistant. Why haven’t you shown me his picture all along? I would’ve tagged along. You know I’m still single, yeah?” She grinned, and he rolled his eyes.
“That’s not why we are
“How about we strike a deal, bro?” She paused, then leaned forward and smirked.
“If you allow me to go on just one date with your assistant, then consider this first assignment a success. I will deliver them to Summer, and make sure
she doesn’t reject them,”
Xander scoffed unbelievably.
“I’m not Nick’s guardian. You should ask him that yourself and not me-
“He is working for you, and you know it’ll look odd that your sister is asking him out on a date out of the blue moon. He might be pressured,” She pouted her lips, and he huffed.
“You know you need to give your permission-”
“Can we talk about why we are here, please?” He ran his fingers through his hair frustratingly even though he knew Lisa was not going to let him off the h**k until he agreed to do what she asked.
“Come on, it’s just an harmless date, sweet brother. I’m not in a position to be begging you for something now, you know, right?” The corner of her lips twitched into a smirk as she looked at him mischievously.
“Ugh! You are so annoying, b**h!” He cursed silently, but loud enough for her to hear him.
“That’s not nice to say about your cute little sweet sister, you know?” She cupped her cheeks in her palms and blinked cutely.
“Cute my a**” He huffed and rolled his eyes.

“That’s my brother! I know you love me so much and you’ll do anything to make me happy-
“Don’t get ahead of yourself or give yourself false hope, sweetheart, I’m doing this because I need your help,”
“It’s still the same thing to me,” She shrugged, and he exhaled deeply.
“So, can we talk about why we are here now?”
“Of course, we should. So, I have a plan…” She paused and smiled.
“I will ask her to meet outside later, and I will deliver the gifts to her,” She suggested, but Xander wasn’t so sure of this.
“What if she rejects it?” He looked at her with concern, and she scoffed.
“It’s me, Xander. I will handle this, so no need to worry about that,” She tapped his hand briefly and smiled,
“I would’ve charged you for this, but since you are going to return the favor, then I think we are even now,” She tucked her hair behind her ear gently, trying to act cute just so she could annoying Xander.
“I should have Dad remove your name from the family register soon. I can’t have this greedy young lady as my sister,” He slowly shook his head and sighed.
“rill take that as a compliment. I love you too, darling. Give me a call when you’re done writing the letter. Take your time. I want to go around.” And with that, she stood up, grabbed her phone from his desk, and walked out of his office elegantly.
A few minutes later.
o take a walk
Xander read through the letter for the umpteenth time to be sure it was error free, and after tearing a few pieces of paper, he finally got it right.
He picked up the card on the table, folded the letter neatly, and pushed it gently inside the car, after which he closed it and dropped it on the bed.
The door opened without a knock, and Lisa walked inside with a smile on her face.
“Are you done already, brother?” She walked elegantly up to the chair across from him, and sat on it. Xander had called her to come over to his office a few minutes ago.
“I guess you forgot how to knock,”
“Don’t talk about that, sweetheart. I’m sure you really don’t want to. I can change my mind now, you know?” She sat majestically on the chair and swung her right leg over the left one while reclining on the chair with her chest pushed out.
“Don’t even think about using your assistant to threaten me. I can have my way with him without your help,” She winked at him, and he huffed.
“You are so
“I think you should mine your words, sweetheart. You wouldn’t want to mess things up,” She smirked at him, and he exhaled sharply.
“You are so cute… That’s what I wanted to say,”
“Awwn! So cute. I know you
adore me, Sh
“She cupped her cheeks in her palms and pouted her lips, blinking her eyes cutely.
“Yes, I do,” He flashed her a grin.

“It’s ready. So, are you leaving now?” He asked desperately, and she nodded.
“I think I should. But before then, I should ask her out first,” She reached for her phone and unlocked it
‘Do you have time? Let’s meet. It’s kinda urgent’ She clicked on ‘send’ icon after she finished typing, and in a couple of minutes, her phone beeped.
“Alright. Send me the address, I’ll meet you there right away’ A smile formed on her lips when she read through Summer’s reply.
“It’s time,” She grinned as she looked at Xander…
