The Royal Arrangement
*** This story will be temporarily on hold. I am sorry to my readers if I can't continue to write this at the moment. I plan to finish The Royal Contract first this month before continuing to write this one. Again, I am asking for your understanding. Due to financial reasons, I need to write a new book for now. A Contract to Marry the Cold-hearted CEO I hope you will give it a try. Thanks again for reading my stories. *** Little girls dreamed of sparkling tiaras and fancy gowns. Little boys wanted to drive fast cars. Well, could she have both? And the father she had never met as a bonus. Luisa was the spunky, street-smart girl next door that wanted her life to have meaning. She lived her life like she was not exceptional except when she was behind the wheel, racing for the finish line. But was that all she wanted? One day, a man dressed up in an impeccable suit came up to her and told her she was a princess, heir to the throne. Insane, right? He was a prince and a successful tycoon who almost had everything except one thing. He wanted the crown. But he had no birthright to rule the Kingdom. Until he discovered there was another way for him to become King. However, he had to agree to the conditions and convince his future Queen of his plans. Easy, right? Would an arrangement be the solution to what they both desire? Would Luisa submit to what Liam proposed? Or would they get more than what they bargained for in the end? Note: This story is related to the Royal Contract book. Still, it is a standalone story. There is no need to read the other book to understand it.

Chapter 47
He was unsure if he was glad he had taken Luisa home. Maybe it would have been better if he had checked her in at the hotel. She might be safer there compared to this place.
He looked around the room, finding everything, not to his standards. He did have very high expectations. Still, this place would not pass his minimum tolerance.
"Why do you care so much?" He suddenly asked his reflection as he looked outside the small window to the back alley. It looked like an emergency exit, seeing the metallic ladder stairs leading to the ground outside.
He pulled the window open to check if it was working in case of an emergency. It easily slid open, but that was not the problem. The lock was not working.
She could get out without any problem, but an intruder could also effortlessly get in. "Stupid woman." He could not help but mumble loudly. What if someone attempted to enter her apartment? She would be a sitting duck to all the criminals that lived in this area.
