They haven’t received the summon from Clint Solomon so they went on with their lives even for just a week.
One afternoon Daniel called her to his office for a briefing.
“We have a video conference with one of our clients abroad”
“If the deal is successful, I will assign the project to you” Daniel said casually and handed her the company profile.
“I’m assuming they wanted us to handle their payroll and HR?” she studied the profile and immediately found the potential improvement.
“But this is not game-related” she thought he wanted to keep different operations in different countries.
“I’m slowly moving the base here. Let me handle the details”
Daniel looked at her and could not help but smile.

Both ladies were startled by Daniel’s voice.Suddenly Nadia realized, maybe it was not a good idea to have the CEO for a husband.He’s really scary up close.Before Celine could leave, she squeezed Celine’s hand for support.‘Good luck’ she said.Celine could only nod.Why does she have to pacify him when he’s in a bad mood?If he has problems, he shouldn’t take it out on her, right?She didn’t do anything wrong.But, she’s just an employee, so she decided to take the high road and be professional.As soon as she closed the door, she felt two strong arms wrapped around her shoulders and pulled her in.“You got me so worried” Daniel whispered in between deep breaths.Ooookay?Now she’s confused.What happened?“Why are you not picking up your phone?” he gently asked.She suddenly remembered

My decision stays”“The secretary stays. You pick internally” Daniel nudged her off his lap she almost fell on the floor.“What?” her trick didn’t work?“I’m not repeating myself, C” he said in his reprimanding tone.Celine could not do anything.“You’re annoying” she said then left his office.Since there’s no changing D

But you’ll have to decide how the company will move forward given that Minerva’s position will be vacant” Linda reminded both Celine and Daniel.The mother superior could not be any happier for the two of them now.

The old man was really grumpy.And why wouldn’t he?Celine said that the ceremony will only involve a few guests. And it would be a simple celebration. However, as soon as she started setting up her decorations, he knew it wasn’t as simple as she claimed it to be.Since he could not convince them to stop, he left the farm as soon as they started putting up the tent and only came back when he received the message that the farm is back to its previous order.He could already see their eco-friendly rating dropping from the charts. He still needed to submit reports to explain that the event did not pollute the environment.So, he is really grumpy right now.

All that matters to him now is that Celine agreed to be his wife for real. The rest will follow later on.“Let’s have dinner now. Celine is hungry” Daniel said to break the deathly glares directed at him.The rest of the group snapped out of their own worlds when they heard Celine was hungry.Sylvia immediately went to the kitchen to check on the food while Aunt Marge prepared the dining table.Celine wanted to help but everyone wanted her to rest.She thought about what happened in the afternoon and they must have felt pity for her.Her heart warms up at the special treatment she’s receiving.“Uhhmm.

No matter what they wanted to say, it’s all useless now.They were at this stand still when the Blooms arrived.“Ah, Daniel you came. Celine would be relieved” Dr. Bloom was filled with vigour.He never expected the wedding atmosphere to lift Grandma Bloom’s spirits.They just came from the make-shift tent where she inspected the final decorations and her eyes were dreamy.“Let’s get married again tomorrow, dear” she joked as she gave instructions to the wedding planning team.“Grandma” Daniel greeted.Grandma Bloom acknowledged his presence but turned her attention to the la

Since their businesses could easily attract those unscrupulous characters, they needed the kind of security that only blood and family could provide.“Of course, Daniel will marry Celine. There’s no way that Daniel will object” Sylvia defended Celine from the Stevensons.“I understand all your concern. Of course, Daniel will have to agree this time. Anyway, I prepared the ceremony thinking that Daniel has really found a wife. It turns out, it’s only a ruse to throw off the Solomons.” Celine explained.“Daniel has already said that he will only get married because of love.

But then again, she’s Britney Smith, only she can do what she does and only she can accept this kind of embarrassment.“Britney, just cross Daniel’s name on your list. He’s not used to dealing with emotions so you will really lose out. He’s also not romantic so you will be really bored. Aren’t you embarrassed if you have to set an appointment with me if you want to have intimate nights with him? Even if you managed to marry him, he will not acknowledge your marriage in public so no one will really know that he’s your husband.

So, I thought I can call you again since you’re divorced now” Britney said sheepishly.Daniel heaved a deep breath to calm the rage he felt before replying again.“Ms. Smith, news of my divorce may have circulated but it doesn’t mean anyone can just call me for dates. I’m not that desperate.” he replied in a stern voice.“That’s not what I meant, Daniel. I just got back to the country and I have a project proposal.
