Chapter168.
Xander:“…”
My face turned white.
Silence filled the air.
My wolf was freaking out for what felt like the millionth time, OH MY GOD! WHAT DID I SAY?! TAKE OFF?! TAKE OFF?!”
Mr. Shaw, is there anything else you want to take off?
Mr. Shaw is only wearing a shirt and trousers!
I wanted to faint immediately, what I had originally intended to say was “Mr. Shaw, is there anything else you want to say?” But my nind jumped to him taking off his jacket, and the two thoughts somehow became…this!
ust as I was agonizing, Xander spoke.
He seriously answered my question, “No, undressing completely would give me a cold.”
Then he gave me a complicated look and left.
Me:“………..
‘WHAT WAS THAT LOOK?”
What was he thinking? My inner self is too wicked, wanting me to undress, and I really can’t satisfy her wish?
leaned against the closet door, wishing I could die. My wolf was at a loss as to what to do.
quickly hung up the clothes from my suitcase, ironed them, and rushed out of the dressing room without looking back.
It proved true: you can’t daydream at work!
I went back to my room to compose myself, then tidied my luggage.
About an hour later, Robert sent a message: “Sophia, Gabriel is awake. He means it’s too late today, so let’s do the tour tomorrow. Also, he’s invited Mr. Shaw for a wine tasting at his place tonight.”
My wolf sneered inwardly, “SO THAT’S WHAT GABRIEL’S TEN BEAUTIES WERE FOR“.
replied: Okay, I’ll pass it on.”
got up and went to the master bedroom and knocked twice on the door
No answer.
Was he napping?
That’s possible, but… what if not? What if he’s showering, changing clothes, or video chatting with handsome male Omegas?
That’s a problem.
Since the tour was cancelled, there was no rush to relay the message. I left the room.
Another hour passed, and Robert messaged again: Gabriel asked again if Mr. Shaw is coming over tonight. He said if you don’t want to go to his place, he can come over here. The old rascal!
The last three words amused me. I replied: “Mr. Shaw is still resting. I don’t know his intentions yet. Tell Gabriel to wait. I’ll go ask again.”
Robert sent a crying emoji.
When powerful people communicate indirectly, the messenger is the one who suffers the most. A small mistake can lead to being turned into cannon fodder

Putting away my phone, Lknocked on the bedroom door again. This time, I heard a voice, “Come in.”
After receiving the response, pushed open the door and saw Xander standing by the window, his back to me, seemingly admiring
the view outside.
The bed was neatly made, and he was wearing a light gray casual outfit. “HE HADN’T BEEN NAPPING? WA3 HE REALLY CHANGING CLOTHES?” My wolf sniffed uncomfortably. The air was filled with the strong scent of an Alpha, a powerful
presence.
“What is it?” Xander turned around.
‘Gabriel sent two messages. The first was an hour ago, saying it was too late for the tour today and that it should be postponed to tomorrow; he invited you for a wine tasting tonight. The second was just now, saying if you don’t go, he’ll come to you.” I replied truthfully.
Then I added, “I knocked on the door the first time, and you didn’t answer, so I took the liberty of ignoring him.”
Xander laughed lightly without concern. “It’s fine; let him wait.”
He glanced at his watch.“Tell Robert that I’ll be there at seven.”
