RONALD'S POV

I finally got what I wanted.The court already gave the ruling by making me the Chairman of the Hoffman’s Empire. It is now time I play my part of the deal.

I stood on the porch waiting for Emily when the door crept open revealing her. She looks so beautiful and elegant in her black dress,she seems to get more beautiful day by day.

At Vista Bella, the candlelight table cast a glow on Emily's face . I watched ,captivated ,as she sipped her drink,the crystal glass reflecting the light .The silence between us grew heavy with anticipation.

Emily's patience snapped first. “What is the occasion tonight?” she asked, her words tumbling out with impatience .

I held her gaze, my expression neutral but my mind raced. Tonight was more than just a dinner date. Tonight I will reveal my plans for her.
