Assuming this isn't Greenhouse spoilers, what's Alex's first meeting like with Adrienne? What's their relationship like (if any) as the timeline progresses?

I imagine Adrienne and Alexander first meet sometime after Alexander is adopted and Adrienne and Phillip Schuyler are engaging in some sort of political discourse in Philip Schuyler’s house. I imagine that Alexander gets a good vibe from her and she reminds him of Angelica, which earlier in Alexander’s tenure as a Schuyler would be a very good thing. I can see Alexander approaching her and trying to impress some kind of political idea or belief, and Adrienne thinking he’s a bigmouth that doesn’t shut up, and of course that would be the end of that, because Alexander is a genius, thank you very much.

Alternately, I can imagine a circumstance where their first meeting is purely very quick and only for the sake of diplomacy, and after that Phillip makes an effort to keep em separated (hey!) because he doesn’t want Alexander upsetting the fragile diplomatic ties between their countries by opening his big mouth and knows that Adrienne isn’t afraid to look displeased and/or punish someone being an asshole to her.
