Alexander
I stared at the financial reports on my desk, trying to focus. We'd signed several new clients this quarter, our stock was up thirteen percent, and the Thompson Hotels rebranding was going better than expected. All things that should have me in a great mood.
But my mind kept drifting to Olivia, specifically to Olivia and James Westbrook.
My phone rang, pulling me from my thoughts. Straightening in my chair, I reached for it.
"Alexander Carter speaking."
"Mr. Carter, it's Nathan Reeves from Hudson Development." The man's voice came through crisp and urgent. "I apologize for the short notice, but we need to move our meeting forward. We've just received another offer on the property."
I checked my calendar. The meeting was scheduled for tomorrow.
"I see. How urgent is this?"
