Bewitched by him

Necklace

Samantha had already donned the beautiful golden dress for her engagement and a couple of make-up artists surrounded her- one doing her makeup and the other working on her hairstyle.

While they were busy, she heard a knock, “Who is it?”

“Miss Samantha. I am Evan. Mr William’s assistant.” A male voice replied from outside the door.

Samantha smiled and stopped her make-up artist to stop before she called out, “Come inside.”

The door opened and Evan entered with a briefcase before he greeted Samantha with a smile, “Miss Samantha. Nice to meet you. I am Evan.”

Samantha smiled, “ Hello, Evan. Nice to meet you too.”

“My boss wanted me to pass on a gift for you before the engagement.”

Samantha smiled sweetly before she looked at the people around her, “Can you please leave for a minute?”

“Sure,” Everyone left the room and now there were only Evan and Samantha inside her room.

Evan immediately worked on his task and placed his briefcase on a table before opening it.

He took a file out of it and presented it to Samantha, “Miss Samantha, my boss has already signed this contract. You can check the contents and if you are okay with everything, you can sign it immediately. If you have anything you want to change in it, you can inform me and I will modify it immediately for you.”

Samantha nodded her head and took the file from his hands before reading the contents of the file seriously.

Evan did not make any sound so as not to disturb her and calmly stood in his position, waiting without any hurry.

Samantha did not waver as she took a pen that Eva had already placed on the table for her sake and signed it once she thought there was no need for any changes.

“Thank you for your hard work, Evan,” Samantha smiled before returning the signed copy to him.

Evan took the file before placing it inside his briefcase and taking out another small box out of it, “Miss Samantha, this is a gift for you from my Boss. He said you would know what to do with this.”

Samantha took the box and opened it to find a beautiful necklace inside it. If it was any other time, she would have rejected it immediately.

But when she recalled the words Evan said that William told him to pass on to her, she thought for a while and understood what the man meant.

She nodded her head in understanding and thanked him once again.

Once Evan left, the make-up artists returned to the room to find Samantha smiling at a necklace in her hand.

They teased her immediately, “Miss, it looks like your man sent you a beautiful gift for your engagement.”

Samantha’s smile turned sweeter as she slowly nodded her head and extended the necklace to her, “Can you help me put this on for me, please?”

“Sure,” She immediately helped Samantha, “Wow, Miss, he really knows what design suits you the best. I can’t imagine that you met each other just yesterday.”

Samantha chuckled but her face showed an immense amount of sweetness, “Well, he really is an observant man.”

Of course, everything was nothing but an act. The necklace was given as a gift only to hide the matter about the contract from others.

Without this gift as a cover up, it would be difficult to explain it to others about why William had to send his assistant to Samantha’s room before the engagement. In order to avoid all sorts of doubts and questions from others, he had thought about everything beforehand.

This made Samantha really happy and she felt at ease. He really is an observant person who knows what to do and what not to do in different situations. There is no need for her to give him instructions about all the small details.

In fact, the small details that she had not thought of were already thought of by that man and he did not even wait to take action about those details.

When Samantha and William reached the engagement hall, both of them were equally surprised.

Henry really had done his best regarding the arrangements in the span of a single night. No one would be able to believe that he had done all this in just a day.

It looks like something that has been prepared for at least a couple of months already.

But Samantha knew that it was not the case. Henry really did not make any arrangements beforehand but had everything in a hurry last night when she was sound asleep.

Her nose tickled at the efforts that her father made for her sake. If this engagement was with the man whom she really loved, this would be the happiest day of her life.

But because it was not, the arrangements that her Father made now only looked like a joke in her eyes.

All this trouble only for a fake engagement.

In fact, the party was not too grand. It was simple, considering that it was from the Alpha’s family. After all, there was no one from the groom’s family present there. From the groom’s side, only a few of his subordinates were present.

It would be weird if the party was too grand. It would look like they were bringing their son-in-law into their family.

Hence, the party was deliberately made simple.

Though it was simple, it did not lack anything. The decorations were perfect. The food was perfect. All the arrangements were perfect for the engagement.

As the bride and groom entered, everyone couldn’t help but gasp in surprise. A couple of a handsome man and a beautiful lady would obviously look perfect.

Samantha, in her golden-colored dress and a matching beautiful necklace, looked both beautiful and elegant. She actually resembled a Goddess taking anyone that looked at her direction’s breath away.

William, donned in his blue suit, looked cool and composed. Though he looked expressionless, his jade-like skin and pale countenance made everyone gasp at his beauty.
