Hana had a lovely breakfast put on the table, and I turned my gaze towards the dad's room, which was still closed at this point. Hana's attention was drawn to me as I stood outside my father's door."Before waking you up, I talked with your father, who said that he didn't want to eat anything and would rather be left alone." Hana's addition made me feel worse, so I headed towards dad's door and knocked."Dad, please allow me to be completely honest with you and tell you everything." I express. But my father didn't answer, and it depressed me as I proceeded to the breakfast table, where I saw so much beautiful food, but my hunger had vanished."Thank you for the cheerful supper, Hana." I see Hana has already dressed to the nines, to which I respond with a grin. "Are you going back to work today?""It is not possible for me to sit and stew in my sadness; it is preferable to distract my attention with activity." Hana responds while munching on her breakfast.

"What the fuck are you? Why didn't you tell anyone, and how can you still employ with asshole corporation? You can quit your job or file a complaint against him." I had Hana restrained by placing my hand on her shoulder to quell her rage."Hana, even if I file a complaint, it will be to no avail. Darcus has a unique ability to turn situations to his advantage. I attempted to resign as well, but Darcus framed a document establishing a three-year contract, which stated that if I wanted to leave, I would have to pay a lump sum amount to the company." Hana raised her eyes at my explanation, which I added dejectedly."Ella, are you serious? I never saw you give up in a situation before, and now that you've explained yourself, you've given up the fight. It could also be the case that you still harbor feelings for Darcus." Hana put her hands on her hips and looked at me with a suspicious expression.I took Hana's hand in mine and led her to the office building without

For me, it's a long weekend and a day off from work... So when I awoke, I checked my phone for any messages from James. Unfortunately, I found a text stating that he had left California. At the breakfast table, Hana sighed, and Dad sighed at my antics as I kept checking my phone for new messages."Please, no sighing out loud." I said this while chewing on my scrambled eggs with one hand while using the other to check my phone."It occurred that it might preoccupy you with your phone and not be aware of the people in the room with you." Dad stated."Uncle let be. Ella has lost her head behind James and she forgot she was supposed to accompany me to the doctor's appointment as well." Hana grumbles, and I recall Hana had informed me about this the previous night."Hana, I remember that I have to take you to the doctor's appointment." Hana rolled her eyes at my statement, knowing full well that I had forgotten about her appointment."Yeah, I believe yo

Darcus Miller - POV"You were not supposed to open your mouth and get involved in Ella's personal life." My snarl drew a sigh from Aisha. Driving this b*tch back made me even angry."Don't be such a whiner Darcus, your mother asked me to play the cards to keep Ella away from you, and you should be concerned about me because I will marry you after all." I tightened my grip on the stirring wheel to keep my dragon from surfacing."There is no need for me to be concerned about you because you are not my mate. Get in line before you plead for mercy and beg me to spare your life." While keeping her gaze forward, Aisha's posture became stiffer. Despite my best efforts to keep my dragon at bay."I sincerely apologise to your Majesty; I didn't mean to say those words." Aisha spoke in hushed tones, knowing that my power could be dangerous to experiment with."That's better, Aisha, you are not yet my wife, and even if we are married, you should never sp

Ella - POVMy eyes open, wondering how long I have been sleeping, the sun is shining brighter than usual, and my gaze falls on James, who is sleeping peacefully with a smile on his face, wondering what he is dreaming that is causing him to smile. It was then that I pulled out my phone and snapped a picture of him. James' attractiveness is undeniable. I slowly slipped out of bed, freshened up, and put on a bright dress.Because James was still dozing off, I went to the restaurant and had his favorite breakfast prepared for us to enjoy brunch in our room.I chuckled when I realized that my dad's sweet tooth is so bad that he makes up ridiculous excuses to get desserts and pouts angrily at me when I don't give him sweets. The doctor has instructed me not to provide him with any sweets, so I must keep them hidden.Walking in, the staff greeted me, and I immediately realized they were all aware that I am a co-owner of this establishment.
