My Accidental Billionaire Husband Aiden and Julian Meet Officially
~Katia~The WEG-IG tech showcase was Sam's idea, which meant it was well-organized, well-catered, and had a guest list that made sense. Families were invited, a move on the joint communications team's part to humanize both companies in the coverage, to show the people behind the systems rather than just the systems. It was good strategy. I had approved it three weeks ago and not thought about it again until this morning when Sam reminded me it was today and asked if I was bringing Aiden.Aiden had been asking about the WEG-IG project for months in the way he asked about things that interested him consistently, specifically, returning to the same questions from different angles until he had assembled a complete enough picture to satisfy himself. He knew about the Invisible Shield architecture because he had read the press release and then asked me to explain the parts the press release simplified. He knew about the Dubai expansion because he had found the board summary in my bag and re
My Accidental Billionaire Husband The Seraphina Distraction
~Julian~Seraphina answered on the third ring, which meant she had seen my name and made me wait two rings longer than necessary, which was her way of establishing that she was doing me a favor and not the other way around. It was a small performance, and I had long since stopped finding it interesting."Julian." Her voice was the particular warm-and-cool combination she had perfected for people she wanted things from. "It's been a while.""Two months.""I know how long it's been." She took a moment that was designed to feel loaded. "What do you need?"This was what I appreciated about Seraphina when I appreciated anything about her—she dispensed with the social architecture quickly when it suited her. We had a working arrangement that predated Delia and had continued alongside the marriage with the same clean transactional logic it had always operated on. Seraphina was a model, just like Chloe; a public figure; and a woman who understood that visibility was currency. I occasionally p
My Accidental Billionaire Husband Gail Connects a Dot
~Katia~The dinner wound down the way good evenings do, slowly, reluctantly, in stages. Guests collected their coats in ones and twos, exchanging the last conversations of the night with the particular warmth that came from wine and candlelight and the specific kind of room that made people feel like they had spent their evening somewhere that mattered.Aiden had fallen asleep in the side room. He had done it with efficiency, finished his dessert, listened to three more facts he wanted to share with the staff member who had been patiently receiving them, and then simply put his head down on his folded arms and gone. One of the Windsor staff had found a blanket from somewhere. I had looked in on him twice, and both times he was completely, profoundly asleep with the abandon of someone who had decided the evening was complete and was not going to wait for the adults to agree.I was collecting my bag when Gail appeared at my elbow.She had been at the dinner, of course she had; it was he
My Accidental Billionaire Husband The Windsor Table
~Julian~My grandmother had arranged the seating herself.I knew this because I knew her and because the seating at Windsor family dinners was always arranged by someone, and that someone was always her, and the arrangements were never accidental. Every placement at that table meant something. Every proximity was a decision. The fact that Katia Kensington was three seats to my left, separated from me by a property developer and a woman from the infrastructure fund, while Delia sat to my immediate right with her hand occasionally resting on my arm in the way she had developed for public appearances was not a coincidence.My grandmother had done this deliberately and was currently sitting at the head of the table looking entirely innocent, which was the expression she wore when she was most pleased with herself.I poured my wine and navigated the first course with the attention I gave to situations that required careful management, present and engaged, saying the right things to the rig
My Accidental Billionaire Husband Mother's New Weapon
~Katia~Mother called it a networking dinner.That should have been my first warning. My mother had never in her life used the word "networking" without an agenda attached to it. She moved through social events the way she moved through everything, with purpose, with positioning, with the particular precision of a woman who had spent forty years learning how to get what she wanted from rooms full of people who thought they were just having dinner."It's a business event," she told me on the phone. "Very exclusive. The kind of thing that's good for IG's profile. I thought of you immediately.""That's unusually considerate of you, Mother."She didn't speak for a moment, and then she spoke again. "I'm always thinking of you, Katia."I looked at Sam across the office. She had been listening with the expression she produced when she was hearing something that required monitoring. She raised one eyebrow. I raised one back."When is it?" I asked."Friday. The Pembridge. Eight o'clock." Anoth
My Accidental Billionaire Husband Sparring Partners
~Julian~The session was scheduled for two hours.We ran it for five.Nobody mentioned the time. My assistant knocked twice, once at the two-hour mark and once at three and a half, and both times I waved her off without looking up from the whiteboard, and Katia didn't look up either, which told me she was as deep in it as I was and had made the same unconscious decision to let the clock become someone else's problem.The Dubai expansion rollout was the agenda item that did it. Everything before that had been manageable, regional server integration, the London office infrastructure timeline, and the phase three brief she had delivered on Thursday as promised, which was as good as I had expected and better than I had planned for. We moved through those items with the brisk, efficient rhythm we had developed over months of working together, the kind that came from two people who thought at similar speeds and had stopped needing to explain their reasoning to each other halfway through the
