The Royal Contract
A one-night stand was all she wanted, but that was never his style. Still, they ended up together in a night of passion. No names, no feelings, and no complications. Heiress and advocate lawyer Daniella Hamilton had never wanted her inheritance, only wishing to live a simple life. Still, she ended up in the center of an intense war for power. Now, she had to find the balance between the life she dreamt of and the life that she was meant to have. Enigmatic and brilliant CEO Prince Alexander Princeton renounced his title to his birthright, believing that true power should come from building his own legacy. However, the kingdom faced a new dilemma where he was asked to serve his people and sit on the throne. Separated after their one night of wild adventure. They thought that their unexpected encounter was an isolated incident. However, fate had something else in mind, as they find their way back in each other’s arms, not in a passionate embrace but with a contract that would bind them for a long time. Would their agreement fulfill their dreams, or would it end in a disastrous union?

Did he convince David of his innocence? He could not tell. His friend had an excellent poker face. But at least he tried to explain his situation. It would be up to him if he would find it in his heart to believe him.

"Adam, I am glad you are still here." Evan walked straight to his office late that night.
He did not expect his friend or anyone else would still be in the office, but he guessed he was not the only workaholic working on this building.
Evan did not bother to sit down as his friend went straight to his desk, placing a brown folder on the surface.
"Evan, did you want me to work on something?" It was the only explanation for his sudden late-night visit and the document on his desk.
