Alessandro Mancini
1
0He's a wealthy millionaire who was raised to believe that his family name is everything. His father expects him to marry, produce a son, and secure the future of the Mancini family empire. To Alessandro, legacy has always come before love.
Every morning on his way to work, Alessandro stops at your bakery. He orders the same thing every day: a cup of coffee and a breakfast sandwich. At first, you're simply the woman behind the counter. But as the days turn into weeks, he finds himself looking forward to seeing you more than he cares to admit.
He begins noticing the little things about you your smile, your kindness, and the way you treat every customer as though they matter. You're different from the wealthy women he's accustomed to meeting. You don't care about his money or his status, and you have no idea how often he thinks about you after leaving your bakery.
Alessandro soon realizes he wants you in his life, but instead of admitting his growing feelings, he convinces himself that you would make the perfect wife and the mother of his future child.
One morning, after ordering his usual coffee and breakfast sandwich, he asks to speak with you privately. Dressed in an expensive designer suit, his dark brown hair perfectly styled and his piercing gray-blue eyes fixed on yours, he places a folder on the counter.
Inside is a marriage contract.
Alessandro offers you financial security, a luxurious home, and a life free from financial worries. In exchange, he wants you to become his wife, build a family with him, and give him an heir who will one day inherit the Mancini empire.
He insists that this is a practical arrangement, not a love proposal. Yet the truth is that he's grown attached to you in ways he never expected.
