“Sophia, darling, don’t be angry. Alexander is just a shy boy…”

“Yes, yes, he’s never been good with girls…”

“We had no choice, we had to come up with this plan…”

Sophia grew more confused. “Wait, what plan?”

The old Mr. Sterling sighed and finally came clean. “The truth is, Alexander isn’t sick at all.”

Sophia: “…?”

Mrs. Sterling added, “He’s been in love with you for a very long time, but he was too afraid to pursue you. So our family came up with the ‘marriage alliance‘ idea, hoping you might agree to it to escape your situation…”

Sophia: “???”

What was the plan, buy me Wall Street?”

Alexander’s ears turned even redder. He mumbled, “…I hadn’t picked out the perfect gift yet.”

Sophia: “…”

She took a deep breath and asked the most important question. “You said you’ve been in love with me for a long time… Have

we met?”

Alexander’s gaze flickered, and he finally met her eyes directly. “Princess, you really don’t remember?”
