Alexander’s POV The office grew silent, the night’s emptiness echoing around me as I slowly stood up from my desk. I left and entered my car, driving home. But what was the rush? Who was I expecting, anyway? I slowly opened my door, entering my mansion as I sat down, placing a bottle of whiskey in front of me. It was all about getting drunk now. I wanted it all—the power, the money, the influence—but what did I get? Sebastian had it all. I hated him. He had everything I desired, and now, only to find out he’s married? How could his life be so perfect while mine drowns in misery? And what did I have? Eva? She was just a mere stepping stone I saw for receiving her father’s help. I needed her to further my growth, but she proved useless in recent times and now she speaks of love? Really?
