As everyone was enjoying their Christmas, Daniel was cursing Evangeline, yet again.

He saw from his second phone, the one he lent to Evangeline, that Sisley called him and Evangeline didn't even mention it. Almost a month, he didn't notice about it, not until he checked his call logs for anyone who had contacted him.

Shit!

The one he lent to Evangeline was the phone he rarely used, and a number anyone knows. But Sisley knew both his numbers. But she rarely called his second number and usually called the main phone he was using the most where all his friends and acquaintance knew.

But since he was in a meeting, he usually didn't answer calls from anyone with the exception of Evangeline since he felt it was life and death whenever the woman called him.

Sisley must have called his second number when he wasn't picking up.

Double shit!

Informing Sisley to only contact him on his main number slipped his mind! No wonder he hadn't receive any calls from her these past few days! Not even this Christmas.

He quickly pressed her name and was about to call her when something popped in his head.

This is perfect. It was exactly what he wanted, right? For her to stop calling him and thinking about him. And by doing so, she would totally fall out of love.

These passed days, almost a month that he didn't see her, his feelings were reduced considerably brought mostly because he was busy and didn't have the time to think about her. And that mainly because he hadn't seen and be with her. He didn't even miss her. But he still likes her.

Deciding not to call her and let things ran its course, he slumped dead tired on his chair. Closing his eyes, he was going to take a quick break for all the reading of proposals when a knock completely shattered his wish.

”Come in,” he said, hiding the grumpiness in his voice.

The door opened and came in their butler. ”My Prince, Miss Waltz, is here to see you.”

Walking in the living area, he saw her lips stretched in a full wide smile showing her crook teeth. In her hands were mountains of gifts which he hoped, really, really hope wasn't for him.

”Your Highness! Merry Christmas!” Lilybella greeted in all smiles. If she didn't have anything in her arms, she could have hug Daniel in a tight embrace. A pity, why didn't I think of that before?
