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?

"We want to know more about the situation of the company." Another of his major stockholder asked in the crowd. Many more questions circulated in the air, but he refused to answer them anymore.
Now, everybody gathered in the ballroom, intrigued with the turn of events. Nobody expected the announcement of Ethan's retirement and his declaration of his new heir to his empire.
Was that the end of the surprise? Well, he doubted it. He might have started it, but it did not mean that he would end it. It was not his party anyway. He believed Alex still had something up his sleeves.
"I will hold my official press conference for the formal turnover of the company to Alex in a few days. I hope that all of you will continue to support my company under its new management." Ethan ended his speech with a big smile.
He was expecting that he would leave the stage after his big announcement with a heavy heart. But surprisingly, he felt the opposite.
