Elena saw it too.

Her eyes caught the email list at the bottom of the screen, and she clearly noticed several subject lines that included her name. She tried to read them more carefully, but before she could make them out, Alexander had already clicked one open.

The email contained a full profile on Monica.

It was far more detailed than anything she had been able to find online. It didn’t just cover her public career, it went into personal territory too, including her eating habits, lifestyle preferences, and even the kind of social circles she tended to move in.

Elena read while quietly committing key details to memory.

The more she read, the more something felt off.

She frowned slightly. “There’s nothing here about her life before she went abroad.”

Every single record in the file traced back to her time overseas. It was as if everything before that had been erased entirely.

“Either someone wiped it clean on purpose,” Alexander said casually, “or it’s buried deep enough that no one can dig it up.”

He didn’t even glance at the screen as he spoke.

Instead, his gaze rested on Elena’s ear, delicate and softly curved, catching the light in a way that made it hard to look away.

“Want me to keep looking?” Alexander asked, his voice low, carrying a faint, almost teasing pull.

He had already made up his mind. If she asked, he was definitely going to take advantage of the moment and name his price.

But Elena shook her head without hesitation.

“No, this is already enough.”

Alexander paused. “…Alright.”

There was a hint of disappointment in his tone, subtle but unmistakable.

At that moment, the WhatsApp window at the bottom of the screen lit up again. The same man from earlier had sent another message.

Dylan sent a message, “Got another piece of good news.”

Alexander typed, “Let’s hear it.”

Dylan sent a message, “Monica’s attending a charity gala tomorrow night, representing Talent Group. Want

the location?”

Alexander typed, “Send it.”

Dylan sent a message. “Add another one hundred million in investment.

Elena couldn’t help but complain internally. That’s outrageous,

One piece of information, and he was asking for one hundred million.

She was just about to refuse. But Alexander had already replied.

Alexander typed, “Deal”

The other side responded instantly, as if he had been waiting for that exact answer.

Dylan sent a message, “Tanshire Grand Hotel, second floor ballroom, 7 PM.”

Elena quickly memorized the details.

Only after she had everything locked in did she turn to Alexander.

“That price is ridiculous,” Elena said. “One hundred million for one tip, and you just agreed like that?”

Alexander’s expression didn’t change. He casually clicked his mouse.

And right in front of her eyes, he withdrew the message.

The chat immediately exploded.

Dylan sent a message, “???”

Dylan sent a message, “You just unsent that?”

Dylan sent a message, “Alexander, are you kidding me?”

Alexander calmly exited WhatsApp, as if nothing had happened.

Elena stared at him, completely stunned. Okay… I did not expect that.

Alexander shut down the computer.

“Go shower. Get some sleep.”

“I still have work to finish,” Elena said.

“I’m sleeping here, Alexander replied, completely unapologetic. “I can’t sleep with the lights on.”

“I won’t turn the lights on

“The screen counts.

Then I’ll go work in the study-”

“I’m not doing separate bedrooms after getting married,” Alexander said, cutting her off in a single

sentence.

That ended the conversation.

Elena knew there was no point arguing.

She grabbed her clothes and headed to the bathroom.

After she finished, it was Alexander’s turn.

Less than two minutes later…

“Come here,” Alexander said from inside the bathroom.

Elena got up from the bed and walked over. “What is it?”
