Olivia's Request

MONDAY.

Aurora left for work around 7 AM to wrap things up with her team as her Champagne launch would take place the following day.

They had a last-minute review of their entire plan before going to the venue. The interior decorations were set along with the table and chairs, only the guests' seating arrangement was left.

Aurora had to cross-check the last part and stayed until every guest's name was put on the table before doing a security check.

"Send a reminder mail to our guests by 5 AM tomorrow about the event in the evening," Aurora instructed shortly before leaving.

Aurora arrived home at 1 PM to find Xander waiting for her in the garden. He had invited her to join him for lunch if she returned on time. She changed quickly and joined him. As she approached, Xander stood up and pulled out a chair to his right.
