Se connecterDavid's POV I met a girl at a banquet.As I didn't want to talk to anyone, I hid in a corner by myself while watching all the glitz and glamour quietly. Mentally, I was calculating how I would stay for another five minutes to avoid being rude.That’s when she appeared!Wearing a red dress, she weaved through the crowd while striking up conversations with almost everyone. Suddenly, as if she had just discovered a treasure, she spotted me and came over to sit down.She seemed a bit tipsy. She chattered away without giving me the chance to respond, she was perfectly content to carry the conversation by herself. It was the first time I had ever met someone so naturally familiar and talkative and I found myself listening to her with genuine interest.After a while, it dawned on me, she probably thought I was a mute.On a sudden whim to tease her, I interjected out of the blue, "Then, what happened?"She jumped in surprise with her sentence caught in her throat. She just sta
Freya's POV On the weekend, with a heart full of anxiety, I picked out all sorts of gifts to accompany David home. I was so nervous that my palms were sweating. As I instinctively reached out to grab his hand, my hand touched a bunch of gift bags."Can't you just carry those with one hand?" I pouted, feeling thoroughly dissatisfied."Please, my lady, do you have any idea how heavy all this stuff is? And it’s not like I can let you share the load."I blinked innocently. "I’m so delicate. I definitely can't help you carry them. It would wear me out."David looked at me as if he had seen a ghost. "Who are you? Give me back my girlfriend who can kick me across the room with one foot!""So, you like her and not me?" I’ve always been a one-woman…""Then stop talking and keep moving!"With my encouragement, David hauled the bags more vigorously and I nodded with satisfaction.When we reached the front door, David set the things down to ring the bell. By the time he turned back
Freya's POV I looked at David with deep suspicion. He maintained the same high energy he had since he got into the car.His eyes were fixed on the rearview mirror without blinking.Damn it!Halfway through the drive, David snapped out of his excitement. "Where are we going exactly?""To sell you off!" I replied, my face grim."That’s not very professional. I’m already yours. All sales are final, no returns or exchanges!"I let out a laugh. "Even e-commerce has a seven-day return policy. Why should you be an exception?"It was just a joke but the he actually got sulky and ignored me for quite a while.It wasn't until I backed down that he finally let out his mind.As compensation for his help, he wanted me to accompany him home next week to meet his grandfather.Meeting his family!I was so startled that I slammed on the brakes. If it weren't for the seatbelts, David and I would have flown out through the windshield.Before I could even catch my breath, I heard David pat
Freya's POVThe fabric issue was resolved, the sample garments passed inspection and we were just waiting for mass production after the press conference.Just as the entire company breathed a sigh of relief, finished clothes having our exact design suddenly appeared on the market! The high-end design was paired with mid-range pricing and it instantly made the clothes the hot item of the season. Before we could even launch, high-quality knockoffs were already everywhere.This sudden turn of events threw the whole company into an uproar. Pouring all the company's resources into a project just to hand the victory over to someone else on a silver platter.How could anyone not be furious?Eric called an emergency meeting to discuss how to handle the aftermath.With a grim expression, he said, "Everyone knows the situation. I'll have the legal department follow up on this. “For now, everyone should put their current work on hold and focus all their energy on salvaging this situ
Freya's POVBefore David could even answer my question, Mr. Pascal stood up and said, "Yes, he is the heir to the Dawson Corporation!"I was completely dumbfounded!David was the heir to the Dawson Corporation?Who would have thought that a one-night stand would land me the billionaire heir himself?While I was still reeling from the shock, I watched as the dignified heir of the Dawson family, crouched down on the floor to take off my high heels.Embarrassed and shocked, I tried to pull my foot back. David looked up at me with his eyes practically questioning me.What are you doing?I shot him a look to ask back.What on earth are you doing?Seeing the silent argument we were having with our eyes, Mr. Pascal tactfully pulled a contract out of his briefcase. "Miss Michael, please look over the contract. “If there are no issues, you can just sign it and give it to Mr. Dawson."Having said that, he made an excuse about having work to do and smartly vanished.David looked u
Freya's POVThis little kid is really demanding, I thought to myself.As I was about to say something, a shadow fell over me.Before I knew what was happening, David’s cool lips had brushed against mine, leaving as quickly as they had arrived."A goodnight kiss." He looked at me with clear, intense eyes while his voice was a bit raspy.I found myself momentarily lost in his gaze, utterly speechless. Seeing my dazed expression, he reached his hand through the car window and gently ruffled my hair twice. "Bye-bye, sweetheart!"After driving for some minutes, I checked my rearview mirror and saw that he was still standing in the exact same spot.While waiting at a red light, a friend request from David popped up. His profile picture was a photo of me.I had no idea when he secretly snapped it but it actually looked pretty good.I smiled, tapped accept and changed his contact nickname to "Little Brother."As I was still giggling uncontrollably at the nickname, he sent me a me
