Chapter 29

Alessandro P.O.V

"Alright then, see you tonight," Sarah said and disconnected the call. Right now, I couldn't be happier knowing that she had finally agreed to go to dinner with me.

I had almost thought she would never agree to meet me again after what happened this morning. But I guess there is some hope.

I've been smiling like an idiot ever since I got her call. I've never experienced anything like this before.

Though I've been in casual relationships with plenty of women over the years, when it comes to a serious relationship, Sarah's face always appears in my mind.

I still don't understand why I feel so attracted to her. It's not that she is the only beautiful woman I've ever met, but there is something different about her compared to other girls that makes her more special and makes me more curious to know her.

I've already gathered most of the information about Sarah's life, including her basic details and even how her husband was cheating on her. Despite all this, that man still had the audacity to order her to come back and live with him.

That asshole husband of hers had one of the most amazing women by his side, yet he chose to ruin it himself. I wish I had been the one to have the opportunity to be in Sarah's life. I mean, who wouldn't want to be with her?

I snapped out of my thoughts and refocused on my work, but my mind was busy counting every minute, waiting for the time to pass quickly so I could go and pick up Sarah.

I just hope tonight I don't do anything to piss her off again.

As the clock struck 7, I closed my laptop and informed my assistant of my departure. I walked to the elevator and down to my car.

It felt as if I was going on my first date with a long-time crush. Well, indeed, Sarah is my long-time crush.

After half an hour, I reached Amario Enterprises. I took out my phone and texted Sarah, letting her know I had arrived.

Ten minutes later, I saw Sarah walking out of the building. Even after working so late, she still looked gorgeous. Her eyes scanned the parking lot until she spotted me.

I stared at her stunning figure as she walked gracefully in my direction. She was still in her office attire, with her beautiful hair tied in a ponytail. Even without any extra effort, she looked ravishing.

"Hey, beautiful!" I greeted her with a wide smile.

"Hello, Mr. Dante," she replied coldly, addressing me with my surname again.

My smile instantly faded at her behaviour. I guess she's still angry about what happened earlier.

Ignoring her coldness, I smiled again as I opened the car door for her and motioned her to get in.

Without a word, she got inside the car. I jogged to the other side and sat in the driver's seat.

I started driving towards our destination, glancing at Sarah from the corner of my eye. She was now looking outside.

"Where are we going for dinner?" she suddenly asked, making me turn toward her.

I was about to tell her the restaurant's name when she spoke again.

"I hope we're not going to any fancy place for dinner."

"Don't worry, it's not a fancy restaurant," I replied.

I instantly dropped my plans to take her to the upscale restaurant where I had made reservations.

After 5 minutes, I pulled into the nearest McDonald's drive-thru. I glanced at Sarah, whose face lit up when she saw where we were heading.
