Such a Busy Day

Aleksis, which was programmed on his watch, responded swiftly, "Yes, Sir."

A few seconds later, Alaric heard Aleksis's voice communicating with Sophia's digital assistant, telling her that he was almost there.

When the car carrying Alaric arrived in front of Meier Tower, Sophia greeted him joyfully, and the employees wondered why their boss had come down to welcome this new guest herself.

"Welcome to Meier Tower." Sophia walked enthusiastically and was about to hug Alaric when the young man raised his hand to signal her not to touch him. Sophia was stunned and promptly threw Alaric a questioning look. "What's the matter...?"

"I don't like being touched," Alaric answered calmly. He just nodded and walked into the building, followed by Sophia who was still in a daze.

"Oh ... since when? I didn't know you didn't like body contact with others," Sophia said, trotting on her high heels to match Alaric's fast pace.
