You'll Plead

Alicia lifted Louis's chin gently, her pretty fall-colored eyes peering into his. Her voice was firm, "Keep your distance from Ginevra."

Louis was completely enchanted by her. She looked so calm, but her words were strong. This odd mix made her even more captivating. His heart melted. He reached up, holding her head gently, and planted a firm kiss on her soft lips.

He chuckled, "I'd have known even without you saying it."

Without missing a beat, he grabbed his phone and dialed Massimo, "Mr. Parmigiani, if there's any business next time, either come yourself or send Giovanni."

Massimo was confused, "What's the matter, Louis?"

Louis looked serious as he said, "Miss Parmigiani has been acting improperly, using her work as an excuse to sexually harass me."

Alicia almost spat out her coffee. Sexually harassing him? What a phrase he has come up with.

Massimo's face turned bright red, "What did Ginevra do to you?"
