Tristan grew more animated as he spoke, gesturing for emphasis.
“Honestly, shouldn't a normal girl her age be enjoying college life? You know, grabbing coffee with friends,
shopping downtown, having a good time? But with her, it’s like the usual rules just don’t apply.”
Liam fell silent, uncertain how to respond.
Strength like hers doesn’t cout of nowhere. Alessia never talks about what she’s been through; she just
keeps her head down and pushes
forward, carving out a space for others with nothing but her own
determination.
“Did you... ever have feelings for Alessia?” Liam asked, testing the waters. Tristan’s grin faded, his eyes drifting
back to the screen in front of them.
“A girl like that-so bright, so magnetic-who wouldn't fall for her?”
Liam pressed his lips together, saying nothing.
“But | always knew it could never happen, so | let it go a long tago. You don’t need to worry about me.”
Tristan gave Liam's knee a reassuring pat, turning the comfort back on him.
“She’s got someone extraordinary at her side. He might look like he’s just there, hanging around quietly, but the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇttruth is, he’s the one who pulled the whole Whitley Group together. There's no way a guy like that is just some
background character.”
Tristan spoke easily, his voice relaxed, as if he’d long since made peace
with it.
“Back when it all started, he took on the pressure-finances, public appearances, publicity-so Alessia could chase
her dreams without holding back. Now that she’s grown, he’s stepped back, letting her find her own path, never
worrying she’ll leave him behind. Honestly, no one could be a better match for her.”

Liam sat in thoughtful silence.
He'd only met Cole a few times, but even in brief conversation, Cole's capability was obvious. And then there
was that unmistakable sense of connection between him and Alessia-it was as if the world faded when they were
together. If anyone ever fit the term “made for each other,” it was those two.
So why did it make Liam grind his teeth in frustration?
Meanwhile, the two of them continued their half-hearted conversation, while Alessia and her team were
celebrating with a dinner party.
Sales had exceeded expectations, and the feedback was even better than hoped. Sure, the basics weren't
groundbreaking, but the “Tree of Life” concept had sparked a flood of discussion and goodwill. The plagiarism
scandal made more people eager to support original work, so the numbers were strong.
Queenie had gone over to rally the staff, while the core group gathered at a separate table nearby.
Surrounded by familiar faces, everyone let their guard down, chatting and laughing about everyday things. For
the first tin ages, they could finally relax-one crisis after another had kept them on edge for weeks, and now,
with things resolved, the tension melted away.
“I'm stepping out to take a call,” Alessia said, just as her phone buzzed.
“Is it the office?” Cole asked, ever the worrier.
“It’s Max Tate.” Alessia flashed the screen at him, then slipped outside.
She found a quiet corner. “What's up?”
“You handled things brilliantly,” Max said, a hint of pride in his voice.
Alessia smiled. “Of course | did.”
On the other end, Max's lips curled into a knowing grin.
“But don't get too comfortable just
yet. Your assistant is qt having
