"Miss Fowler put your photo in the firm's public group chat this morning. She said you're the cutest girl she's ever met!"

Laura's cheeks flushed with a mix of surprise and embarrassment.

Alexis, despite being a woman, commanded an air that left Laura somewhat flustered.

The receptionist winked as she picked up the phone.

“Miss Fowler is always available for you."

Laura's embarrassment deepened.

The receptionist arranged Laura's meeting with Alexis and offered to guide her.

"Let me show you the way."

As Laura followed, she noticed curious and knowing looks from the staff they passed, making her wish she could simply vanish.

The receptionist escorted her to the 16th floor, where Alexis' awaited. The led Laura into a lavish secretary secretary office, split between a work and leisure area, spanning an impressive 100 square meters.

Alexis was playing snooker, her tall, elegant figure accentuated by her suit.

She moved effortlessly around the table, even in high heels, and scored a shot with ease.

The secretary clapped, showering her with compliments.

Alexis seemed to relish the praise, her eyes casually drifting over to Laura, who stood with a shy, reserved demeanor.

As the secretary left to make coffee, Alexis tilted her head towards Laura.

"Do you know how to play? I can teach you!" Her tone was inviting, a playful challenge in her eyes.

Laura presented a box to Alexis.

"Miss Fowler, I came to return this."

Alexis, focused on her snooker game, bent gracefully to take another shot. The elegance of her movement was striking, making Laura blush slightly.

In her usual relaxed manner, Alexis replied, "I've already accepted Edwin's check for it."
