Can I keep you forever?

On the upper floor, Rain still couldn't believe that Alexander was standing beside her, calm and composed as always. She had been surprised enough just by his presence, but what truly caught her off guard was the warmth of the conversation unfolding around her.

"I was really surprised when Rock called me last night," Vernice said with a bright smile. "He told me he wanted his daughter-in-law to attend this event. It's a pleasure meeting the woman who managed to marry Xander!"

Rain's cheeks flushed slightly, but she returned Vernice's smile as she extended her hand. "It's nice to meet you, Miss Vernice. I've always admired your work."

Vernice accepted Rain's hand with a warm handshake, her expression softening. "Thank you, dear. It's always a pleasure to meet someone who appreciates the arts."
