Chapter 61

Alex's POV:

As I sat in my room, surrounded by the soft hum of computers and the gentle rustle of papers, I couldn't help but feel a sense of detachment. Mr. Bason, Jenny's relatives and friends, were all downstairs, mingling with the rest of the Grande and Core families. Jack had arrived with Annie, and the sound of laughter and chatter drifted up through the floorboards.

I focused on my work, my eyes scanning the lines of code on my screen with a practiced intensity. I knew they were waiting for me to join them, but I had more pressing matters to attend to.

People often labeled me as a cold billionaire, devoid of emotion, but they were wrong. I was different when it came to my family. I cared for them deeply, even if I didn't always show it.

My phone rang, shrill in the silence, and I answered it with a curt "Hello, Drew."

"Boss, someone is trying to hack into the company system and your home CCTV camera," Drew said, his voice tight with concern.
