The servants of The Fort Family manor knew that Mr. Fort's breakfast time was fixed.
Today, it was the first time he was late.
The servants all knew it was because of something.
Following that, during the greetings, there was a little bit of warmth in everyone's smile
traces of favoritism showing through.
Anna's footsteps followed Alexander, after staying here for a few days, she was slowly getting used to The Fort Family.
However, she was keenly aware that something was a little strange, and couldn't tell what it was.
And holding her back, she seemed to be getting a lot of focused attention from all and sundry.
The butler came out with two re-made breakfasts.
"Sir, Young Master Jason has already had breakfast."
Actually Jason couldn't guess the reason why Alexander would suddenly be late, it was the butler who purposely sidetracked him and didn't let him bother.
Alexander glanced at the time and raised his eyes to Anna, "Are you going to the office today as well?"
"Well, I'm going to The Wright Family Group for a meeting, Honey can you give me a ride?"
Anna knew her father was still worried about her and Alexander living together after their marriage.
It was just the right time to take the opportunity to be able to prove that the two were on good terms and that The Fort Family and The Wright Family were great allies to work with.
Just then, Jason happened to walk in through the doorway and heard the words.
"Brother, you're going to be late for the office, so you won't have time to see her off."
Even if Anna unilaterally proposed to reconcile last night, Jason couldn't change his habit of targeting her.
Upon hearing this, Anna glared at him unexpectedly, still eyeing Alexander with a pouty question.
Alexander chucked her bowl of her favorite fried bacon and replied:
"Well, I'll take you to The Wright Family after dinner."
"Thanks Honey, Honey is so nice."
Anna smiled and continued to eat her breakfast.
At this moment, Jason, with a skeptical expression on his face, couldn't help but walk next to the housekeeper and ask in a small voice, "Why is my brother suddenly so nice to Anna?"
The butler stifled a laugh and replied in the same small voice, "It's good that Mr. Fort and the young lady are in love."
"But it's strange, my brother obviously didn't sleep well, why does he seem to be in a good mood."
"Young Master Horan, you'll understand when you grow up."
"? I haven't grown up yet?"
Jason continued to be skeptical.
After breakfast, Anna hurriedly got up and ran back to her bedroom room.
Originally, she still had to put on her makeup, but she was running late, so she had to walk out with her makeup bag.
Alexander's upright figure stood waiting for her in the living room, and when he saw her hurried steps, he frowned and reminded, "Anna, I'm not in a hurry."
"Well, Honey, actually I am in a hurry, the meeting starts at nine."
Anna's explanation caused Alexander to blush slightly.
In the next instant, she ran to the foyer to change her shoes.
Since she was wearing a skirt and had to stand on one foot while changing her heels, she subconsciously leaned sideways against him.
Alexander looked down at her in a condescending manner, his large hand naturally wrapped around her waist, turning it into her strongest support.
"Do you have to wear such high heels?"
It was obvious that walking was easy to fall.
He wanted to control her, but on the surface it didn't sound like concern.
Hearing this, Anna obediently raises her head to look at him and replies, "Wearing a skirt is only good with high heels, and make-up is also important, I'm Bo's young lady, I can't lose your face outside."
After changing her heels, Anna takes two steps back and shows off her outfit in Alexander's line of sight.
"Honey, this skirt isn't too short today, is it?"
She cared a lot about what he thought, and was careful to please at every turn.
Abruptly, Alexander's wantonly scrutinizing gaze slowly returned to her face, and his voice said in a low and nice voice, "Well, it looks good, no shame."
Suddenly being praised for looking good, Anna smiled petulantly.
So, without warning, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Thank you Honey for the compliment."
After saying that, she happily trotted out to get into the car.
Alexander turned a second too slowly to hide the curve of a smile that lifted the corners of his mouth.
Expressing gratitude with a kiss?
Was that a perk for him? What a little leprechaun.
Alexander then stepped out on his long legs and got in the car from the back seat.
His eyes saw Anna already focusing on her makeup, as if she wasn't the one who had just teased with a kiss, quite the repeat offender.
"Brother, we're off?"
"Going to The Wright Family Group first."
The driver drove and Jason sat in the passenger seat.
Already waiting in the car for a long time, he was even more puzzled inside.
It was obvious that they were going to be late, but they weren't in a hurry at all.
Also, why was Third Brother so happy? The smile at the corner of this mouth just didn't disappear.
The black caravan drove out of The Fort Family manor.
At the same time, the butler instructed the maids to go to the bedroom rooms and organize them.
He also personally placed the prepared contraceptives at the bedside location to make up for his late carelessness.
8:50 PM.
The caravan slowly stopped at the entrance of The Wright Family Group building.
By now, Anna had already put on her makeup and left her packed makeup bag in his car.
"Honey, I'm a bit busy today, so I don't have time to go over at noon to have dinner with you, so I'll see you at home later in the evening."
As she was getting out of the car, Alexander suddenly took hold of her wrist.
Anna turned around to see Alexander getting out of the car after her.
"You wanted me to drop you off, didn't you want the others to see it? Can they see it if I send it here?"
"So Honey is taking me to the conference room?"
Almost simultaneously, Anna instantly took his arm, her smile unable to hide her pleasure.
Alexander's eyes were fixed on her feet, and he warned in a low voice, "Walk carefully, don't get hurt."
"With Honey around to protect me, I won't get hurt."
Anna's eyes are bright and glittering as she looks at him.
Behind him, Jason in the car wanted to remind that The Fort Family Group's meeting was also late.
But he suddenly couldn't bring himself to speak, inexplicably having a strong feeling that his words weren't working.
In the meantime, chaos erupts in the lobby of The Wright Family Group.
Alexander's appearance at the office with Anna was undoubtedly the biggest story of the day.
Following that, it made everyone else overlook the fact that Anna, The Wright Family's former fourth lady of waste, was also present at the company meeting today.
The elevator slowly went up to the president's office on the top floor.
Anna had just stepped out of the elevator when she saw her big brother Andy's back.
"Big brother, good morning."
Andy turns around when he hears the voice, seeing Anna and Alexander is a double surprised reaction.
Abruptly, his footsteps come back and he speaks in an obviously somewhat polite tone, "Alexander, it's been a long time."
Hearing this, Anna blinked and corrected herself, "Big brother, isn't it out of place to call Alexander? You should call he younger sister's husband."
It was true that the title should be changed that way, but Andy wasn't sure.
If Alexander didn't agree, it would be like climbing up the ladder if he changed his name.
However, Alexander took the initiative to change his name and said, "Well, big brother doesn't have to be so formal."
Andy's ice-cube face rarely collapsed, and his stiff voice said in a single word, "younger sister's husband..."
