GoodReadA significant number of them were willing to linger in her company, their curiosity piqued by the prospect of
meeting the enigmatic benefactor. This was the man who had transformed Getty's career into a veritable
goldmine, compelling even A-list stars to orbit her as supporting roles.
In the ruthless world of show business, success seldom arrived without the propulsion of a benefactor. Every
rising star had at least one, but a benefactor who commanded both respect and fear was a rare phenomenon
that intrigued everyone. They were all eager to see if this mysterious patron was merely another corpulent,
aging man, ripe for mockery.
As they engaged in casual conversation, a sleek Maybach made its entrance, gliding to a smooth halt in front of
Getty.
The chatter abruptly ceased, and every eye widened in anticipation, riveted on the car, eager to catch a glimpse
of the emerging passenger.
In due course, the passenger door swung open, and a man, cloaked in a black coat, stepped out. His tall figure
cut an imposing silhouette against the night sky.
Getty's face brightened with joy, and she trotted over to him, exclaiming, "Alexander!"
As he turned around, his sharply defined features were revealed under the cloak of night. His indifferent eyes
were chilling in their detachment, as if surveying the mere mortals beneath his gaze.
The women could no longer conceal their envy or amusement.
Many had seen this face before - on television, in newspapers, or at high-profile business galas.
Alexander, a legendary figure in the business world, maintained a distance from the glitzy realm of celebrities.
They might have known of him, but none dared to approach him.

him!
Getty's mysterious patron was none other than Alexander!
Eager to flaunt her connection, Getty looped her arm through Alexander's and inquired, "You drove here
yourself? How long did it take?" Alexander, playing along perfectly, wrapped his arm around her waist in
response, "Just a couple of hours. Have you been waiting long?" "Not too bad, | dressed warmly, but my hands
are a bit cold."
Alexander took her hands in his, "Let's get in the car."
Radiating happiness, Getty nodded and snuggled closer into his embrace.
They entered the car amidst the envious stares of the women left shivering in the cold breeze, each glimpsing
jealousy in the other's eyes.
Inside the warm car, Getty could barely contain her excitement.
"Alexander, you have no idea. They were just saying that the man behindwas an old and ugly guy, maybe
even balding - | was so annoyed! But did you see their faces when you showed up? Hilarious! They got just what
they deserved for waiting around to mock me. Now, let's see if they dare gossip aboutbehind my back
again!"
As Getty chattered on beside him, Alexander drove with a faint smile on his lips, appearing utterly indulgent.
"Hey, why are you so quiet? Don't you feel a bit relieved?" she prodded him.
"Relieved? I've been behind the wheel for two hours already, and I've got another two hours on the road when
we head back. You think that's relieving?" Alexander retorted.

Hearing that, Getty just laughed harder, "That means you love me, darling. | appreciate it, you know!"
Alexander responded with an enigmatic chuckle.
