Another Chance for the Luna Queen novel

Chapter 0189 Chapter 0189 Ella POV Antonio Kingsman , a tall , slim man with a head of striking white hair and pronounced smile lines , entered the reception area with an air of quiet confidence .

His sharp suit and polished demeanor made it clear why he was so sought after .

He extended a hand toward me , his warm smile putting me instantly at ease .

Miss Rowan , I presume , he greeted .

Antonio Kingsman .

Its a pleasure to finally meet you .

I shook his hand firmly and returned his smile .

Ella Rowan .

The pleasure is mine , Mr.

Kingsman .

I understand youre Alexander Blacks fiancée , he said , his tone carrying both curiosity and warmth .

Ive had the honor of working with Alexander for quite some time , and Ive often wondered what kind of woman could finally steal his heart .

I chuckled softly .

I like to think he gave it freely .

Mr.

Kingsman laughed , his eyes crinkling with amusement .

Touché .

Im sure he has .

He gestured toward the seating area .

So , Miss Rowan , what brings you to my shop today ? Were you hoping to have a dress made ? Actually , I began , hesitating slightly , I was hoping you could help me with a surprise for Alexander .

A surprise for Alexander Black ? His brows lifted in mock disbelief .

Now thats a tall order .

But if anyone can make it happen , its me .

Tell me , what did you have in mind ? Accessories , perhaps ? Cufflinks ? A new tie ? I shook my head , smiling .

A custom outfit , I said .

Something designed and made just for him .

And , preferably , without him knowing .

He tilted his head , considering .

I see .

And is there a particular occasion for this surprise ? I want to take him out for a nice date , I explained , smiling softly .

Something laid back and relaxing .

He needs a break from things .

I havent decided on the details yet , but I know an outfit like this will take time to make , so I thought it was best to speak with you first .

Mr.

Kingsman looked thoughtful , then smiled warmly .

Well , I look forward to hearing what you plan .

I must admit , Im curious about what youll decide on .

As for the outfit , I can make time to create something for Alexander in secret .

If you leave your phone number , Ill text you sketches for approval before I start cutting the fabric .

Ill also send the pricing details that way .

That sounds perfect , I said , my smile widening .

It felt like things were falling into place .

I was genuinely excited about the prospect of showing Alexander even a small token of gratitude for everything hed done for me .

The arrangement between us was supposed to be equal , yet it felt like he was always coming to my rescue .

This was my chance to start evening the scales .

Well , with that settled , may I ask you something ? Mr.

Kingsmans expression shifted slightly , a hint of concern appearing .

Of course , I replied .

Do you know if Alexander is getting his wedding suit made elsewhere ? he asked , his brows knitting together .

Your wedding isnt far off at least , according to the news and he hasnt come in to speak with me about his suit .

He hasnt said anything to you at all ? I asked , surprised .

( 1/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 0189 Not a word , he confirmed , shaking his head .

I wouldnt be offended if hes chosen a different tailor for the occasion , but if he hasnt given it any thought yet , it concerns me .

Ill speak to him about it , I said , reassured by his candor Im heading to see him right after this , so Ill make sure to bring it up .

Just a gentle reminder , he said with a slight smile .

Im sure hes busy with all the other details of wedding planning , but Id hate for him to forget .

Of course , I replied , returning his smile .

Thank you for letting me know .

It was my pleasure , Miss Rowan , he said with a polite, bow .

And thank you for gracing us with your presence today .

Thank you for making the time to see us , I said to Mr.

Kingsman before leaving my phone number with the receptionist .

Elizabeth , James , and I exited the tailor shop shortly after .

Once we were out of earshot , Elizabeth leaned toward me .

Should we be concerned that Alexander doesnt have a suit yet ? માન .
