The Royal Contract

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.

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?

Without feeling any hard feelings
The royal staff, wearing formal burgundy velvet vest and black pants uniforms, served assorted horderves as appetizers together with some cocktail drinks to the guests.
In the meantime, this was the opportunity for the guests to socialize with the others before dinner was served. Many formed groups according to their interest, either in business or politics, among other things.
"Congratulations to the proud parents." A loud voice suddenly joined the group, consisting of the groom's parents, the bride's parents, and several other guests.
The group turned to the source. But the duke had already recognized the voice even if he had his back turned to the man. He was indeed expecting his arrival soon enough.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness," Laura, who was facing the newcomer, vowed her head as a show of respect to their guest. Katherine also simultaneously greeted her brother-in-law once she saw him.
