Chapter 67 Burdened

• Amelia sat at her desk, engrossed in her work, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Alexander's schedule from his former assistant, Sam. The morning had been unusually quiet, devoid of the usual banter and warmth they shared during their commute to the office.
• Unable to ignore her curiosity, Amelia stole a glance at Alexander, who was seated in a chair with his head bowed down on his desk. Concern etched across her face as she observed his weary appearance. Alexander, known for his vibrant energy and enthusiasm, seemed uncharacteristically weak and dispirited.
• Amelia continued to steal glances at him, her worry growing with each passing moment. As Alexander slowly lifted his head from the desk, Amelia caught a glimpse of his solemn expression and the heaviness in his chest as he let out a deep sigh, leaning back in his chair. It was evident that something was amiss.
