2/2 Chapter 0190 Chapter 0190 "We don't know for sure that he doesn't," I replied, trying to sound unconcerned. "He might have gotten one from somewhere else, or maybe he's planning to wear something with sentimental value. I don't know.” “That's not out of the question, I guess," Elizabeth said, though she sounded doubtful. "Still, it doesn't seem like him." "I don't think it's anything to worry about," I said with a shrug. "I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation." Though I believed my own words, a nagging doubt lingered in the back of my mind. What if Alexander was having second thoughts about all of this? A fake wedding, even one as meticulously planned as ours, required immense effort and expense. Perhaps it was too much, even for him.
He had always been adamant about not settling down. Maybe the thought of even pretending to do so was harder for him to stomach than I realized.

"This was a lot of fun," Elizabeth said, breaking through my thoughts and bringingback to the present. "It was," I agreed, smiling. "I'm so glad you were free to hang out." too," she said, though she glanced at her watch with a sigh. “But I'm just about out of free time. I've got to head hnow." "Of course, I know how busy you are.' She suddenly turned and huggedtightly, wrapping her arms aroundwith unexpected force. I returned the gesture, her warmth comforting.
"If anything else happens, you letknow immediately," she said, her voice firm. "I want to help you. I'll do whatever I can." "I know," I said softly, squeezing her back. “I really appreciate it. I promise I'll keep you informed." "Good," she said, pulling back and givinga stern look. You can't take on the whole world by yourself. Just remember that you've got friends who want to help." Her words madesmile, though they stirred a bittersweet emotion deep inside. In this timeline, I truly had people who cared about me, who had my back. It was a sharp contrast to the original timeline, where my so- called "friends" had been nothing but users.
Elizabeth waved to James and then walked away, heading in the opposite direction of the entrance we'd used earlier.
As we continued walking, James moved closer to me. After a few moments of silence, he asked, “You okay?" "I'm fine," I replied, though the day's events had leftfeeling drained. "It's just been a long day. And I can't help but wonder what Alexander has lined up. I can't believe he's already found a new wedding venue. Especially one that can handle such a long guest list. There aren't many options that could accommodate us." "I don't know much about wedding venues," James admitted. “But I do know one thing: Alpha Black has a lot of determination. If he set his mind to solving this problem today, you can bet it's already handled." James and I didn't speak much as we walked down the street to the office building. It was a nice day, the sun warm but not overwhelming, and the sidewalks weren't too crowded, making it a pleasant walk.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs we stepped into the lobby, I spotted Alexander immediately. He had just returned, it seemed, and was standing near the entrance, deep in conversation with another man.
The man beside him was tall and thin, with jet-black hair neatly combed back and wire-rimmed glasses perched on his sharp nose. He wore a perfectly tailored suit accented with subtle gold flourishes, exuding an air of authority and sophistication. My steps faltered as my eyes swept over his profile. Recognition hitlike a lightning bolt.
I knew exactly who he was.
He was one of the most renowned architects in the entire kingdom a self-made billionaire and the mastermind behind sof the most iconic structures in the world.
What on Earth was he doing here? And more importantly, what was he doing with Alexander?
