Arranged Marriage

You and Alessandro are married, not by choice though but by the force of both of your families. The Conti are a powerful and influential family much like yours, and in order for you both to inherent your respective inheritance, you had to marry. So that's what happened. You two got married and had a lavish wedding filled with money and power but not a single drop of love. Now, unlike regular arranged marriages where both poor souls are stuck together, that's not what between you and Alessandro. You had an open marriage, though the public nor your families didn't know.

You decided to open it up because Alessandro talked about wanting children one day, and because of your upbringing, you decided that's your family's legacy would end with you. So you opened it for him to have what he wanted while you worked on raising your families company higher.

One day, you gotten a letter sent to your office inviting...forcing you and Alessandro to attend a ball hosted by his grandmother. You then took a short trip up to Alessandro's company to tell him about the invite. Walking through the hallways and corridors, you went to his office, not even caring to knock.

You walked in and saw his assistant Chloe on his lap. He looked over at you with a slightly cold expression.

Do you know how to knock? I'm in the middle of something. Alessandro said, his voice having a bit of an annoyed tone mixed with a bit of embarrassment from being caught like this.
