CHAPTER 817. PRINCESS BY DAY.. I Object!Cameron wanted the ground to open up beneath him. He couldn’t connect one thought to another, and he definitely couldn’t string two words together.“This can’t be real!” he exclaimed, tearing open the envelope and pulling out the invitation. Sure enough, there they were—Dandara’s name and Leon Rothschild’s, along with the date and time of the wedding.“She only sent ten of these—to family, only to family. So I imagine she wasn’t planning on sending you one.”“But she never told me... Leon Rothschild came to pick her up a few hours ago,” Cameron explained desperately. “Dandara left and told me she was going to fix things. But I never thought...!”“You didn’t think her ‘solution’ would be marrying her fiancé?” John replied in frustration.“I didn’t think her fiancé had a Rudolph the Reindeer complex, to be honest!” Cameron snapped. “When he showed up at my door, he knew she was with me. He knew Dandara was here, cheating on him! So I don’t unders
CHAPTER 818. PRINCESS BY DAY. A... StrategyBoth of their hearts were about to explode. Dandara held her breath while Cameron looked at her in desperation, as if she were about to shatter him with a single word. The entire family came running to witness the scene, and then the chaos was swallowed by a chilling silence.“Dandara, please. I don’t know what’s going on with you and this idiot, but I love you. You know I love you! And you know you love me! You can’t... you can’t marry someone else. Please...” The anguish in his eyes was heartbreaking, and only in that moment did Cameron truly understand what it had meant when she had walked away from him five years ago—what it felt like to have her choose to leave him behind. “I’m sorry, love. I’m sorry for all the stupid things I did. But, Dandara, we can start over! We can start over because there is nothing, absolutely nothing, that I wouldn’t do for you. Do you understand? Love, there’s nothing I wouldn’t—”“Do you have a ring?”That q
CHAPTER 819. PRINCESS BY DAY. A Friend"Alright, alright, I’m the bride’s father, so I should—" Jhon started to protest, but a second later, the lord, count, or whatever he was, pointed an accusatory finger right in his face."Don’t even think about it, Mr. Hopkins. You’re already paying for the grand wedding and getting to walk her down the aisle with all the pomp and pageantry you want, but for this one, I’m the one giving Dandara away! She’s leaving me at the altar, after all!" Leon hissed, and no one dared argue because there were few men as good-natured as Leon Rothschild—though at the moment, no one really understood what kind of strange relationship he had with Dandara.So, he offered his arm to the emotional bride and took two steps with her toward Cameron, his smile sincere. He handed her over with all the formality of a father and, of course, didn’t miss the opportunity to warn Cameron not to mess it up.This was only the civil ceremony, so with the paperwork already prepare
CHAPTER 820. PRINCESS BY DAY.. A Special Surprise"Close your eyes! No cheating!" Dandara scolded as she drove at full speed, but Cameron looked like he was about to jump like a rabbit in the back seat. "Don’t make me tie you up because you know I will.""And who said I’d be against that?" Cameron shot back with a wicked grin. "Besides, it doesn’t matter if I can’t see where you’re taking me. I have plenty—plenty—of other ways to get information out of you without opening my eyes."Dandara bit her lower lip, ready for the challenge, but she had no idea just how good her dear husband’s memory was."Oh yeah? Like what?" she taunted him, and a second later, she felt him lean forward, wrapping his hands around her chest."Hey, those are my boobs!" she yelped, laughing—until that laugh vanished the moment she felt his warm breath in her ear."You don’t say… My eyes are closed, so I can’t be too sure… Let me verify," he whispered, teasing her over her dress before slipping a mischievous han
CHAPTER 821. PRINCESS BY DAY. A Full-Time PrincessSIX MONTHS LATER.“Please tell me you’re not about to do something stupid,” Chiara Keller said, pinching the bridge of her nose.“Of course not, my love. I know stupid things are kind of my thing, but not this time,” Jhon said with a grin from ear to ear.“Then what’s the assault rifle for?” his wife demanded.“It’s for a good cause!”“And why don’t I believe you?”“Well, do you want to be a grandmother or not?” Jhon grumbled.“Well, yes! But that rifle isn’t going to make it happen any faster! What are you planning to do? Scare poor Cameron’s swimmers into rushing upstream in desperation?” Chiara scolded. “You might end up with a terrified grandchild!”Jhon pouted like a little kid, but needless to say, he waited until his dear—and very respected—wife wasn’t looking to discreetly slide the rifle into the trunk of his truck. Just, you know, casually...And then he set off, fully determined to scare off whatever sperm needed scaring—be
CHAPTER 822. MY LITTLE BELOVED. PREFACESYNOPSISBeing a Keller wasn’t easy, but Niko had mastered it perfectly. He had inherited the best genetics from his father and the boldness and courage from his mother, channeling it all into becoming one of the most important tech investors in Switzerland. The problem was that, after losing love once, he had gained a reputation for being ruthless in every way.The respect he commanded was more akin to fear, and every one of his employees preferred to avoid him since he was known for firing people far too easily… until she arrived.Gigi was the clumsiest creature a human woman could have ever brought into the world! She seemed to always be tripping over her own tongue or apologizing, and she had been offered to him as cannon fodder—his new secretary.The problem wasn’t his lack of tolerance for the girl. The problem was that Gigi carried a secret neither of them could imagine, a secret they would both uncover simply… too late.MY LITTLE BELOVED
CHAPTER 823. MY LITTLE BELOVED. The New Secretary18 YEARS LATER.“N… Niko… you can’t…”“Ex-cuse me?!”The man’s voice was so low and rough that it felt like a slap.“I’m sorry, Mr. Keller… I meant to say… I don’t need…” The woman standing in front of him was trying every possible way to excuse herself, but the owner and CEO of that investment firm was known for being ruthless, and he wasn’t going to be any different with his secretary.“It’s a check for one hundred thousand francs and a glowing recommendation letter that will get you the same job at any other company,” Niko stated, signing a stack of papers in front of him without even bothering to look at her. “You can leave with the money and the opportunity, or you can leave empty-handed. But the fact is, you will leave, because I don’t sleep with the same woman twice, and you already knew that.”“B-but… f-firing me?” Her eyes welled up with tears in an instant.“So, you don’t want the check?” he asked, pretending to rip it in hal
CHAPTER 824. MY LITTLE BELOVED. No Foolish ModestyGigi hadn’t exactly jumped for joy when she got the job. First, because it hurt to know she couldn’t aspire to more than being the copy girl, since she didn’t have the money to continue her education. And second, because ever since she was a child, she had learned to keep her feelings—good or bad—to herself.So when Mr. Hommver told her that she would be the company owner’s secretary for a few days, she hadn’t even understood what was happening. She had simply gone to his office, and of course, the unfortunate chain of events that always seemed to follow her didn’t take long to strike again—mainly because the shoes she was wearing were “inherited” from her mother and were two sizes too big.So, when, to complete her misery, that coffee pot spilled all over her, forcing her to stifle a pained grunt, she already looked like a cornered little animal against the furniture, while the man who appeared to be the owner roared like a hungry li
