Mili noticed colourful butterflies made of silk perched on branches. A narrow creek ran alongside. Its gentle stream was reflecting as tiny candles were set afloat in leaf-shaped holders. Fireflies blinked here and there as if nodding in approval at the magic being crafted in their forest. Her eyes could barely consume the charm of the surroundings when Daniel brought her to the table which was set of two and stood beneath a wooden arch entwined with white wisteria and roses. Soft lights dangled from above and small candle pillars flickered on the lacy table's surface. "This..." she whispered, blinking rapidly, "this can't be real. Daniel... it's like... I'm inside a fairytale." His fingers curled softly around hers as he pressed a warm kiss on her cheek. "You are. My little fairytale." She indeed made him feel things he believed he

Rose was the first person to wish her this morning before the maids at the mansion wished her at the breakfast table. Breakfast was all according to Mili's liking this morning. She had been texting Rose with her new phone after that ... Sending pictures and asking about each other's well-being. After a few talks, Mili shared how her periods were delayed for no reason by quite a few days and that had never happened to her earlier. – 'Mili, you guys use protection, right?' Rose texted, throwing the birthday girl into a pit of confusion.Embarrassed to ask for the details, Mili ended up questioning Google – 'Protection in bed', to which Google ended up showing safety mattresses and pillows, mostly for babies and some for old people. Then, she searc

She had deliberately slept longer than necessary as if trying to delay the day. Though she had stubbornly insisted on sleeping alone last night, it didn't quite feel like she was alone. She couldn't explain why… maybe because she was never truly used to sleeping alone. By the time she descended to the dining hall, the sun had cast a lazy gold over the room. The breakfast table was laid out in impressive decorations like a silent apology. Every dish was plated with precision and every detail spoke of his care. "Don made all these for you," Willa offered gently, her voice sugar-coated with hope, hoping it might lighten Mili's stoic expressions. Her smile faltered as it met Miliani's unreadable eyes. Mili observed everything in detail and then, beneath the glass of fresh juice, her fingers brushed against a

Mili asked, her brows slightly furrowed as she watched Willa move briskly around the dining table, balancing a tray with no one in sight to assist her. Willa let out a breathless laugh, the kind that carried more irony than amusement. "Miss Marisa was middle-aged, milady... she believed selling the gemstone you gifted her would be more than enough for the rest of her life." Mili got startled. "She sold it.. this fast?" "She did," Willa nodded, placing a glass of juice in front of Mili. "And if you'd seen the sparkle on that stone in daylight… you'd know she wasn't wrong." Without another word, Mili began helping, lifting the basket of bread and setting it on the table and pouring tea into delicate china cups. Willa paused mid-step, watching her innocent friend and she gently questioned, "You've no idea how expensive those gifts really were, do you?" Before Mili could

Daniel knew that well that he had no rightful say in how Lorenzo handled his staff, which is why he turned to logic, diplomacy, and something even more potent .. he played the loyalty card. The very one he'd been carefully letting ripen over months, knowing it could yield him far greater leverage in the future. He had even refused to use the voting in his favour in the last meeting when it could easily have profited him in a bigger cut in business. Now the board members' loyalty towards Daniel was naked before the Romanos' eyes! Despite everything, without any ounce of hesitation, he spent it all here. All for Mili. By the time Mili climbed down the stairs, only Daniel was standing there to escort her back home. Daniel stepped out first. Mili followed. Her heart was full. When they approached the step
