The Billionaire's Heart

Chapter 4: A Growing Connection

Sophia woke up the following day feeling like she was walking in the air. She couldn't stop thinking and admiring Alexander and their their date the night before. She kept on thinking and was smiling as her thoughts kept her backwards.

As she got ready for work, it looked as if she was mad through her actions; she kept on smiling all alone as she was preparing for work and also when she went there. The memories of Alexander charming smile and tender kiss left her speechless and smiling all alone.

At work, her actions speak to the minds of her colleagues which they noticed that her actions looks weird. She was now energetic, enthusiastic, tah usual, and she couldn't stop talking about Alexander.

Her friend went right onto her and teased her saying: " you're glowing, what's going on" Rachael said.

Sophia blushed, feeling self- contious. " I just met a friend" she said looking a little bit casual in terms of words.

Rachel eyes kept going up, down, side and to Sophia: "Someone? Who?"

Sophia feeling hesitated, unsure of what to reply said: " just a guy I met" she said just to turn the whole matter short.

But Rachael didn't give up knher. She knew she was hiding something and then told her to uncover the secret right away.

Sophia sighed, knowing that it wouldn't be a secret for quite a long time then told her. " Fine, I met Alexander Gray"

Rachael couldn't believe it. "The billionaire?"

Sophia nodded, feeling nervous. "Yeah, that's the one."

Rachel gave this expression:" Hmmmm" "Wow, Sophia, you're moving up in the world."

Sophia laughed, feeling embarrassed kind if. "It's not like that," she said, trying to pretend. "We just met, and we're taking things slowly."

But Rachael wasn't convinced thinking it's just a prank or a joke amongst them. " You're into him" Rachael asked"

Sophia blushed. But she couldn't deny it - she was totally into Alexander.

As the day went on, Sophia found herself thinking about Alexander more and more and often. She wondered what he was doing, and whether he was thinking about her too. Sophia was really anxious and nervous about how Alex was feeling about her in the other way round and whether he's talking about her to his friends and if he's lost in thoughts about her as she is to him here.

Finally, at 5 pm, Sophia's phone rang. She picked it up, with a smile on her face and her heart firing up to the next level.

"Hello?" she said, trying to sound as if there's nothing wrong.

"Sophia, it's Alexander,". "I hope I'm not interrupting anything."

Sophia stopped for a while to let her heart cool a bit. "Not at all," she said, trying to sound casual. "I was just getting ready to leave work."

Alexander replied. "Great timing, then," he said. "I was thinking of taking you out for dinner tonight. What about that?"

Sophia heart was moved with excitement another round. Dinner with Alexander? She would love that.

"Yes, that sounds wonderful," she said, trying to sound calm.

Alexander laughed. "Great," he said. "I'll pick you up at 7."

Sophia hung up the phone, feeling like she was walking on air. She couldn't wait to see Alexander again.

As she got ready for dinner, Sophia found herself feeling more and more excited. She put on a beautiful red dress and did her hair and makeup.

Alexander finally arrived at 7. He looked handsome and charming in a black suit and tie, and he already admired Sophia's dress already.

"You look stunning," he said,

Sophia blushed, feeling ."Thank you," she said, .

Off they drove to the restaurant with the two of them discussing, laughing and cracking jokes.

At the restaurant, they were shown to a beautiful and admiring table by the window side. Sophia gasped in amazement as she looked out at the stunning view of the restaurant. A new one indeed with gadgets nice tails and beautiful illusions

"It's beautiful," she said, turning to Alexander.

He smiled. "I'm glad you like it," he said. "I wanted to take you somewhere special, somewhere far away from here; just me and you." Would you?

Sophia's heart melted. She felt a sense of wonder and excitement, knowing that she was falling for him already.

As they ordered their food and began to eat, Sophia found herself feeling more and more comfortable with Alexander. They talked and laughed, crack jokes, look out on some funny skits on social media and enjoying each other's company.

As the night came drawing ever closer, Sophia realized that she didn't want it to end. She was having the time of her life, and she didn't want to say goodbye to Alexander that soon and the second time coming out for a dinner with him.

But as the clock went down to 10, Alexander looked at his watch and stood up immediately. "I'm so sorry, Sophia, but I have an early meeting tomorrow," he said with regret.

Sophia nodded, feeling a little disappointed in him and towards herself for letting Alexander leave so soon.
