Chapter 11
The Duke Of Monaco

Mia was meeting a client with a very prestigious background, hailing from the royal family. Alexander Montecarlo, the Duke of Monaco, had recently purchased a huge mansion in Paris and desired it to be decorated by the renowned interior designer Mia Peterson herself, rather than one of her assistants. Hence, he sought assurance and wanted to meet Mia personally. Mia couldn’t refuse the request of a member of the royal family and felt obliged to accommodate the meeting in her office, even though it fell outside her usual working hours.

Mia arrived early and ensured all the arrangements were in place. Although she didn’t seek recognition, she believed that this business collaboration with the royal family would elevate her firm to new heights. If the Duke himself praised her work, there would be no one to rival her fame and success.

Ever ambitious, Mia was determined not to miss this opportunity. She had worked tirelessly to earn her reputation, and now it was time to prove her worth in the interior design industry. She had endured a lifetime of hardship, growing up as an orphan and then marrying a devil mafia who treated her terribly. But now, her focus was on giving her children the world and proving her worth. She was determined to make her children proud of their mother.

She glanced at her assistant, Emily, who nodded confidently, confirming that everything was ready.

As the clock struck four in the afternoon, the gate swung open, and the Duke’s bodyguards. entered, followed by Duke Alexander Montecarlo. He strode in, his presence commanding and intimidating, clad in an exceptionally expensive black suit. “Your Highness!” Mia greeted him with a smile.

“Miss Peterson, it’s an honor to finally meet you,” the Duke’s voice carried a taunting edge, a reminder of Mia’s two previous cancellations due to her children’s school performances.
