The Billionaire's Unexpected Proposal by Samantha

Chapter 64

After his last appointment on Friday evening. Derek headed directly for the restaurant where he was to meet with Sandra for their dinner.

He wished the date had been set at an earlier time and not after the close of work, so he could easily leave after thirty minutes or an hour.

Though the date wasn't until 5 p.m., Derek had decided to arrive there early. He wasn't there out of eagerness but just because he wanted to have control of the situation.

He wanted to be fully prepared for the evening, knowing well that this date was more than just to fulfill his end of the bargain with his mom but also a step toward uncovering Michael's plots.

Ethan chuckled. "Maybe because you're in love with me?" he joked and Derek rolled his eyes.
