Chapter 594 A Hot Spring Date

Maggie and Autumn had realized earlier that they both needed to replace Alex, and so they arrived at the Sakura Club together after work.

Alex had not seen Maggie earlier because she had gone to the restroom once she arrived.

"Why are you looking for me?" asked Alex.

Maggie looked at him in irritation. "Must I have a reason for visiting you?"

That earned her a smirk from Alex, who replied, "You know that's not what I meant."

She harrumphed slightly before saying, "I wouldn't claim to understand your thoughts."

He raised his hands in mock surrender, and Maggie rolled her eyes.

She did, however, have a somewhat legitimate reason for visiting him. "My grandpa's celebrating his birthday on the fifth of next month. He's inviting you to the celebration; would you be free?" Alex pondered her invitation, his gaze dropping briefly to her assets.

Eventually, he smiled and uttered, "It's always possible to make time for things that one is interested in."

Maggie rolled her eyes again and asked, "So are you going or not?"

Alex opted for a non-committal answer. "I'll be there if nothing urgent comes up. These things are always hard to tell, so I'll confirm my attendance with you closer to the date."

She nodded and dropped the subject. The celebration's almost a month away; there's no rush.

"By the way, let's visit a hot spring tomorrow; I'd like to discuss some work matters with you," Maggie suggested suddenly.

Why do we need to go to a hot spring to discuss work?

Alex was puzzled.

Still, his shaky relationship with Heather had been stressing him out lately, and a soak in the hot spring sounded like just the thing to help him relax. "Sure." Alex agreed immediately.

Til come to get you at ten tomorrow, then If there's nothing else, I'll

eyes twinkled at his unexpectedly-easy agreement.

She had thrown out the invitation, thinking she would shoot her shot.

Now, Maggie's mind was whirling with everything she needed to do before her highly-anticipated "date" with Alex.

After leaving Sakura Club, Maggie called her assistant, Yasmin Harrison, to accompany her to buy a swimsuit.

"Yas, should I go for a bikini or something more conservative?" Maggie asked.

Alex will definitely notice me if I wear a bikini, but what if he replaces it too revealing? A conservative swimsuit might not even catch his eye at all. I can't waste such a good opportunity!

Maggie had not given up on her mission of turning Alex into the Grant family's future son-in-law, especially after knowing about his shaky relationship with Heather.

It was the only reason she had invited him to the hot spring.

Yasmin suggested, "I would go for a bikini. It'll show off your figure, and any man would have to be blind not to be attracted to you. Since Mr. Jefferson agreed to your invitation, he must be secretly or subconsciously hoping that something would happen between the two of you at the hot spring. Wearing a bikini will give him a shove in the right direction. It's the best shot you've got at snaring him, Ms.

Grant!"

Still, Maggie hesitated. "Well, let's just get one of each design. We can decide tomorrow."

Yasmin nodded, though she added, "I think the bikini is your best option. Ms. Grant, you have a gorgeous figure, and it'd make any man go mad with lust."

Her flattery seemed to convince Maggie. Nonetheless, she grabbed both swimsuits.

"Right, make a reservation at Amora Hot Springs," Maggie ordered.

Yasmin whipped out her phone and got to work, while Maggie skipped off to the dressing room to try on the swimsuits.
