Chapter 346

---- Chapter 346 By eight that evening, Donovan showed up at her apartment as promised, ready to take her home. "What's wrong?" he asked, noticing her mood was off. As he spotted the puppy in the house, something clicked in his mind. "Who came by this afternoon?" He tried to pry. "No one." Giselle instinctively shook her head, intending to brush it off. "One of my staff picked up the puppy for me. You don't mind if I raise it at your place, do you?" "Your place?" Donovan arched an eyebrow. "Isn't it your home too?" "Right," she said, almost forgetting that they were married now.

"It's been a long day since we registered our marriage today. I'm exhausted. How about staying here tonight instead? "Fine by me," he said evenly. Then, almost as a warning, he added, "Just remember your identity now. You know perfectly well which people you should see and avoid seeing." She drew in a quiet breath and quietly changed the subject." How did things go with your family? Your mother was furious. You're not really going to cut ties with them, are you?" ---- "That's none of your concern," Donovan replied airily. "And don't bother with their opinions, too.

From now on, the only thing you should care about is me-what I feel and what I want. Make me the center of your world." Giselle couldn't help but laugh. "So if I revolve around you, does that mean you'll grant me all my wishes?" "Of course. Obedience comes with rewards," he said, his tone carrying a teasing edge. "Good." She slipped her arms around his neck, improving her mood quickly. "Then here's my first wish-let me work in your company. Can you do that?" "The company isn't some playground," Donovan replied.

"It's hardly your style." His company focused on pharmaceutical research and production. Everything was hard work, tedious, and there was nothing glamorous about it. The job wasn't fun-it was just a tough fit for someone like Giselle, who loved partying. "Wouldn't know until I try, would I?" Her gaze locked on his. We're married, after all. What's there to be afraid of? You're not still guarding yourself against me, are you?" Donovan wasn't a fool, so he knew exactly what was going on in her head.

But after everything they had been through together, he'd long stopped clinging to superficial things. He flashed her a helpless smile. "Do whatever you want. If it makes you happy, I'll even hand you the CEO position and let ---- you have your way." His boundless indulgence left Giselle a little unsteady. For someone once so cold and untouchable, his sudden transformation into a man who doted on her without limits made her feel almost guilty. Aweek later, Giselle followed Donovan to Kane Pharmaceutical Group.

She started out as his assistant, intent on learning the company's structure from the inside. She knew exactly what her real goal was. Getting that marriage certificate was only the first step. The next was to work her way into the heart of the Kane empire. She had to gain real influence and finally have the power to do what she'd always planned. Since they hadn't held a wedding, none of Donovan's employees had any idea that their boss was already married.
