95 Unveiling the Past 

At the banquet, Alex reached out to Lennox, his intentions partially driven by his own reflections on his past with Emma. He believed fostering a partnership between Lennox and Emma could be a step towards amending his past mistakes. 

Approaching Emma, Alex found her sharing a light moment with Jada. The atmosphere shifted noticeably when Emma turned her attention to Alex, her smile fading, replaced by a guarded expression. “What can I do for you, Mr. Alex?” she asked, her tone polite yet distant, aware of the curious glances from the surrounding crowd. 

Alex broached the topic of Lennox’s interest in working with her and mentioned his willingness to apologize. Emma, however, seemed unimpressed. “Why would he need to apologize?” she queried, cutting straight to the point. “I never thought we were a good match for collaboration in the first place.” 

Emma’s dismissal of the idea was clear, and she didn’t hide her perception that Lennox’s interest in Alex was more pronounced than in any potential partnership with her. Alex, picking up on Emma’s stance, backtracked, offering a personal confession. He admitted to realizing his mistakes in their marriage, hoping to find some ground for reconciliation. 

Emma’s reaction was icy. “If you’re talking about our marriage, I believe I was impulsive too. But trying to make amends now? The best you can do is stay away from me.” Her words were laced with a chilling finality. 

As Emma turned to leave, Alex, driven by a sudden impulse, asked her about an incident from five years ago – if she had been the one who saved him at the southern beach. Emma’s reaction was one of confusion and then sharp disdain. “Are you trying to gross me out here? Forget whatever happened five years ago it has nothing to do with me.” 

Emma’s parting words left Alex in a state of turmoil. He had never considered Emma to be 

manipulative, but her accusation made him question his past judgments. He stood alone, grappling with the weight of her words and his own unresolved feelings. 

Meanwhile, at the banquet, the news of Alex’s conversation with Emma Began to ripple through the crowd, fueling speculations and gossip. The dynamics between the once–married couple were a source of intrigue, and the evening’s events added another layer to the ongoing narrative. 

In the background, Lennox, having observed the exchange from a distance, mulled over his next move. The evening had not gone as planned, and his interactions had unveiled new perspectives, particularly regarding Emma and Alex’s complex relationship. 

As the night progressed, the atmosphere at the banquet remained charged with a mix of business calculations and personal undercurrents. Unseen alliances were being formed, and old ones were being tested, as each individual navigated the intricate web of relationships and ambitions.
