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?

There were a few more things that were bothering her. But she wanted to hear her father's explanation first before she asked more questions.
So far, she still could not make sense of her father's reasoning. There were still a lot of details that did not fit the puzzle. Like why Cassie was so adamant about ruining her family.
"What are you saying, Dad?" Hearing her father defend Cassie was not what she expected. She furrowed her brows together, more confused than ever.
She always thought that her father might harbor some ill feelings for her former friend for her association with Nick. It would seem that was not the case as he revealed to her another side of the story.
"Because when I saw what was happening with the company, I tried to take over. I thought that I could still turn it around and save the business from financial ruin." He shook his head as his memories reminded him of the past.
