Capture Her Heart After Marriage

When Joseph saw Alexia, a surprised smile spread across his face. "Why, hello again!"

Alexia smiled back. "I didn't expect to see you here. This is a pleasant surprise."

"This is a nice surprise. And the Lancaster Group sent you?" Joseph asked, walking toward her.

"Yes." Alexia nodded when she realized something that made her even more surprised. "Mr. Swift, are you the president of the Swift Group?"

Joseph’s smiled grew even bigger. "I want to hear what you think."

"Seeing as I have a meeting with the president and you’re the one who’s here, I believe you are." Alexia smiled awkwardly as a blush rose to her cheeks.

There actually was no need to guess. Joseph's last name was Swift, and she was at the Swift Group. Unless someone was a fool, anyone could guess he was the president of this company based on having the same name.

"Bingo! I’m sorry to say, but I don’t have a prize for you." Joseph laughed at his own joke, reaching out a hand. "Let me officially introduce myself. I am the president of the Swift Group, Joseph Swift."

Alexia was worried that her hand would be sweaty, so she casually brushed her hand on her dress as she moved to return Joseph’s handshake. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Swift. I am Alexia White, the secretary to the president of the Lancaster Group."

Noticing that Alexia was nervous, Joseph gave her another warm smile. "Just relax. I don't bite! Plus, this isn’t our first time meeting, remember? That means there’s no awkwardness and we can act like old friends meeting up."

"No, that was different," Alexia said, shaking her head.

Joseph raised an eyebrow. "How so?"

"I didn’t know who you were then! Now that I know you’re the president of a company as large as the Swift Group, I am required to treat you with far more respect. Mr. Swift, you are superior to me, and I am here representing the Lancaster Group to seek a partnership. In order to guarantee the success of this meeting, I need to take this seriously," Alexia said as she straightened her back.

Alexia’s seriousness toward the whole situation amused Joseph, and he couldn’t help but smile. A warmth grew in his chest, but he ignored it for the moment.

"Alright, let’s take this seriously then. Please, have a seat, Ms. White."

"Thank you, Mr. Swift," Alexia said, taking the seat opposite him.

Joseph stared at her with his large, warm eyes, making Alexia shift uncomfortably in her seat.

"Mr. Swift, is there something on my face?"

"No. Nothing."
