Union Of Enemies - Chapter 40

Sienna Monroe and Caleb Sinclair have been in a relationship for three years and married for three years. They were as close as could be.Until one day, a strange text message informed her that Caleb Sinclair had cheated.She originally thought it was a prank, but she didn't expect to witness him embracing another woman and kissing her passionately.At that moment, the years of happiness and joy collapsed in her heart, completely sinking into an abyss.Later, guided by the text message, she successfully obtained evidence of Caleb's infidelity and the gifts of villas, bags, and jewelry he gave to the mistress. She then entrusted Sebastian Prescott, the top lawyer in Imperial City, to handle this divorce lawsuit.When the truth came out, Caleb Sinclair, with reddened eyes, begged pitifully, “Sienna, I was wrong. I really love you. Please give me another chance.”Sienna Monroe's heart was already filled with disappointment, “Your love is too filthy, I don't need it.”Everyone in The Capital Circle knows that in the legal world, Sebastian Prescott is noble and aloof, an untouchable and unattainable figure.Sienna Monroe thought the same, but it was precisely such a person who said to her, “I can help you heal, would you consider it?”

A lonely soul, which was placed under the care of the Lord Protector’s Manor, ended up having her lover stolen by the family’s eldest daughter and dying tragically the day before her wedding.

A one-night stand was all she wanted. A one-night stand was not his style. Still, they ended up together in a night of passion. No names, no feelings, and no complications.

They thought that their unexpected encounter was an isolated incident. However, fate had something else in mind.

As they found each other, back in each other’s arms. Not in a passionate embrace, but with a contract that would bind them for a long time. An agreement they were both bond to honor.

Daniella Hamilton was an heiress who wanted nothing to do with her father and her inheritance. She pursued her career to become a lawyer for the masses who could not defend themselves from the injustice in their current judicial system.

Alexander Princeton, as the name suggested, was a possible heir, next in line to his father, the Duke of the Blackstone House. He also wanted nothing to do with the title or the prestige of the dying Royal Empire. To him, wealth was the real power.

Would their agreement lead them to the fulfillment of their dreams or would it end up in a disastrous union?
