Time was ticking and Noah had finished her makeup. However, the dress she was supposed to wear hadn't arrived yet. Their guests would be arriving soon, and she wasn't ready at all. Selena who had been wearing the dress prepared by Noah had come to Noah's room."Isn't there another dress you can wear? You have so many dresses, there must be something suitable for you to wear, right?" Selena asked as if pitying Noah, even though in her heart she was very happy to see Noah's helpless face."William said he found a dress for me. I have to believe him," said Noah."Alright, if you really believe him. But, it looks like the guests have arrived and it would be rude if the party owner wasn't present to welcome them." Selena was at a loss to provoke Noah."Yes, I know. But isn't there William downstairs. He should be able to sort it out," Noah replied confidently.It was useless to provoke Noah. She trusted William too much. That was why Selena changed her strategy."In that case, should I hel
Noah never thought that she would be wearing a dress that couldn't even be valued at a million dollars. The most amazing thing was that the dress fit her perfectly, as if it was made especially for her. As a supermodel, she has worn all kinds of clothes. However, she felt that the dress was the best of all that she had ever worn.All the attention that night was really only on Noah. There were clearly envious looks on the faces of the female guests who also wanted the dress. Noah didn't know how William could borrow the dress for her. I wonder how strong William's influence was that a dress that was not even allowed to leave the royal museum could be flown to New Eden.The ring exchange ceremony was over. Most of the party guests moved outdoors to enjoy the garden that had been transformed with flowers and festive lights. Only a few guests stayed inside. Most of them were people who were present because they had a special interest with William. While William took turns chatting with t
The tiring night was over and only the servants were left to clean up the party room. Although the mansion's servants had to work overtime, the extra salary was enough to make the servants eager to get the job done. Some even said they would work overtime every day if the salary was that much. Although, they also didn't know what would happen the next day because there were two bad incidents that happened in two days, a stain on Noah's dress and a fire that made the drone attraction stop before the end of the show.While the servants were busy cleaning up, William and Noah were already in their cozy bed. They had cleaned up and changed into their pajamas. Noah rested her head on William's arm as she hugged him."Thank you for the wonderful party," Noah said. "I didn't expect you to bring that dress. Even Princess Eugene never wore it. I really feel like a queen."William kissed Noah's temple briefly, then said, "Yes, you are indeed a queen, my queen."Noah closed her eyes, letting the
All the servants were lined up neatly in the second floor garden, right beside the swimming pool. They didn't know why they were gathered there. They turned to each other and asked the person beside them why."They said it was an order from Miss Alexander.""Why did they gather us? Is it because of the incident at her engagement party?""No way, she told us earlier that she would forget about that incident. As long as we don't repeat the mistake again."Although the servants were downcast, they were able to steal glances at Noah who came with Selena. If the Noah they usually saw was always smiling kindly, the current Noah seemed to have a cold and arrogant look on her face. They had no idea why their Misstress was such a different person."Good afternoon, Miss," the servants greeted Noah at the same time as a respectful welcome.Noah didn't return the greeting. She stared at the row of waiters in front of her from left to right. "At first I wanted to tolerate your mistake. But, I thin
Selena sat in her chair with her entourage of lawyers. She kept her head down most of the time, avoiding Tom's threatening glances. Selena wasn't afraid of Tom, she was just pretending to attract the sympathy of the people in the trial, including the reporters who had come to cover the news. She had even prepared a press conference after the trial was over."Based on the evidence in the form of recordings and witnesses, Thomas Monroe was found guilty of assaulting Selena Ryle. Thomas Monroe was sentenced to six months' imprisonment, one year of city detention, and ordered to pay a fine of one million dollars to the victim."Tom's eyes widened. He looked up at his father who was sitting in the audience. Mr. Monroe's face was red with anger at the judge's verdict. He had tried to lobby the prosecutor and judge to free Tom. However, William Smith's power behind Selena was very strong.The trial ended and the participants slowly began to leave the courtroom. Mr. Monroe was approached by r
"Is there anything you need?" Selena asked William.William, who was sitting in his chair doing his work, immediately raised his eyes to Selena who had just entered his room."I told you that if you want to enter my room, knock first," William vaporized."I knocked, but there was no answer. I thought it was something wrong with you," Selena replied.William clenched his hand on the table. "Get out, I don't need you. So, don't come back to my room."Selena gave a small smile. "Okay." She turned around, then said to herself, "Yes, reject me as hard as you can because no matter what you will bend your knees before me."William massaged his forehead after Selena left his office. It had been three days since Selena had worked in his office. If it wasn't for Noah's request, he wouldn't have accepted Selena to work there. Selena had no skills at all, let alone to be one of his team of secretaries. However, William couldn't refuse Noah's request. Besides, Noah promised that Selena would only
For William everything was fine. He was just walking as usual with the intention of working. He didn't have time to look anywhere. At first he did see a glimpse of a man's shadow approaching him, but he thought the man just wanted to pass by because he was neatly dressed like an employee. Besides, the area could only be entered by employees in the company building or visitors who had registered at the reception. However, he didn't expect the man to run up to stab him in the stomach."I'm going to kill you!" The man threatened and continued to thrust the knife, even though he was in a bit of distress.[Someone has targeted you][Self-protection has been activated]Gregori, who was not far from William, immediately pulled the man who stabbed William. Some panicked shouts were also heard from some people who were there, so security immediately came to the scene and secured the person who wanted to harm William."Sir, are you okay?" asked Gregori, holding William's arm with a very worried
"How long are we here?" Selena asked Anne.The two women were still at the Pearl Hotel, which was being renovated. Anne was given the task of checking the repairs against the recorded data. She matched everything written in the documents and ticked the parts that matched."We have to check everything in the data and hand it over to Mr. Smith when we get back to the office," Anne replied."And why is this the secretary's job? Isn't the secretary just organizing the schedule and accompanying to work?"Selena complained, she wanted to get out of there and go back to the office to see William. Besides, she didn't want to linger in such a boring place with so much noise and debate. There were still places being renovated, so the sound of workmen and fine dust from the repaired parts of the building flew around."We also do this kind of work sometimes as secretaries because it's our job to make Mr. Smith's job easier. For the person who always accompanies him, there is Mr. Gregori."Selena,
