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?

Between a dream and reality
Earlier.
Before the accident, she remembered talking on the phone with Jacky as she drove towards the destinated location Jacky had set to meet with her.
She remembered stepping on the gas, finding herself late again. She was sure that she did not exceed the speed limit, careful maneuvering around the traffic.
"You had a car accident. Do you remember that?" The doctor repeated the question. "I am Dr. Foxe, by the way." He introduced himself.
He wanted to know the extent of the damage done to her brain. She did suffer a mild concussion during the accident, finding a wound on the top of her head.
"Can I have some water first?" She repeated in a croaky voice. Speaking was a bit harder when all she could feel was the dryness in her mouth.
She looked at the older man, standing near her bed, looking down on her. She could tell that he already had a lot of experience handling situations like her condition.
