    Summary

    “With Lando Norris’ almost-wedding, they’re all looking your way,” Christian continued, tapping his pen lightly against the desk. “They want to know if you have someone, Max. You know how it is—an eligible young bachelor, a company worth millions, and no one on your arm. It’s basically a tabloid headline waiting to happen.”
    “Yeah, yeah, I get it,” Max said, waving a hand dismissively. He could practically hear Christian rolling his eyes on the other end of the line.
    “Just think about it,” Christian pressed. “It’s not about settling down, not really. It’s about optics. Perception. You know how much people eat this stuff up—especially when they’ve already decided you’re some cold, work-obsessed tycoon. A little personal connection goes a long way.”

    Or: Seven years after a high school dance tore them apart, Max and Charles still don’t speak. But when Charles needs him, Max always shows up—helpful in the most unexpected, infuriating ways.
