Chapter 2 : Meeting Alex Again

"Yes."

The assistant responded and was about to leave.

Alex paused, suddenly thinking of something, and took out a heart-shaped diamond necklace from the drawer, standing up, "I''ll go myself!"

A week ago, he had been drugged and had taken a woman''s body in a hotel. The next morning, the woman was gone.

The necklace was found under the pillow they had slept on.

It wasn''t his, so it had to be hers.

The lights had been off that night, and he hadn''t seen her face clearly, but he remembered the feeling vividly.

He had to find her!

Clutching the necklace, Alex looked at the unfamiliar woman''s face in the photo, then headed downstairs and drove to the airport.

...

Six years later.

At a fashion brand''s launch event in Nectar City.

"Joseph!!!"

Where did that kid run off to now?

Tiffany noticed her son was missing and immediately handed her daughter to the assistant, then anxiously started searching.

The place was packed with fans, a noisy crowd, making it impossible to spot who she was looking for.

Tiffany took out her phone, about to call Joseph, when she accidentally bumped into a hard chest.

Her nose hurt slightly, "Sorry, I didn''t mean to..."

As she spoke, a familiar cologne scent hit her.

Tiffany was stunned, her body stiffening.

"Tiffany, you actually dare to come back!!!"

A cold and cruel voice suddenly rang out.

Tiffany shivered, looking up to see an exceptionally handsome face.

Alex!!!

It was him!!!

Tiffany couldn''t help but clench her fists, grinding her teeth.

What a small world!

On her first day back, she ran into Alex!

After the divorce six years ago, she found out she was pregnant with triplets. Unable to bear aborting them, she gave birth to all three.

Her eldest son, Joseph, was a genius, clever and mischievous.

Her youngest daughter, Stella, was soft and sweet, a bit introverted but still adorable.

But her middle child had been kidnapped when he was young.

All these years, she had been searching for her second son, but there had been no news.

This had always been a pain in Tiffany''s heart.

Seeing Alex, Tiffany immediately thought of her foolishness six years ago. The apology on her face vanished, replaced by coldness, with no trace of the warmth and love from the past.

She had grown up, no longer the love-struck girl who revolved around Alex.

Now, seeing Alex, she no longer felt her heart flutter.

"Mr. Spencer, you must be joking. I''m not a fugitive. Why wouldn''t I dare to come back?!"

Alex narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint flashing through them. Six years had passed, and this woman had become quite sharp-tongued.

"Tiffany, don''t test my patience!"

Tiffany paused for a moment, then let out a cold laugh. "Shouldn''t I be the one saying that?"

Alex frowned but didn''t respond. He had more important questions for her. His deep eyes darkened. "I have something to ask you."

"But I have nothing to say to you!"

Tiffany turned to leave. Alex grabbed her hand, stopping her in her tracks. Tiffany rolled her eyes in frustration and noticed a waiter passing by with a tray of coffee. Without thinking, she grabbed a cup and threw it at him.

Alex''s white shirt was instantly soaked with brown liquid, making him look even more disheveled. His brow twitched, and a thin layer of anger appeared in his eyes. This woman!

He gritted his teeth. "Tiffany!!!"

Tiffany blinked twice, her expression unchanged. "Sorry, Mr. Spencer, it wasn''t intentional..."

Though she said this, her face showed no remorse, and there was even a hint of a smile at the corner of her mouth.

"Mr. Spencer, you should go take care of your clothes. I won''t bother you anymore."

With that, she tried to slip away. However, Alex had no intention of letting her go. He tightened his grip and forcibly dragged Tiffany in another direction. His strength was overwhelming, and Tiffany couldn''t break free.

"Alex, are you crazy? Let go of me..."

Alex, barely containing his anger, dragged her into a lounge and threw her onto the sofa. Tiffany felt dizzy and looked up to see Alex pulling off his tie and unbuttoning his shirt. His tanned skin, muscular chest, and defined abs were suddenly exposed.

He approached her, leaning in slightly. Tiffany''s heart raced, and she clenched her fists.

"Alex, what are you doing?!"
