Meanwhile –Ethan flung his tablet across the room. The screen shattered, but it didn’t slow his breathing or still his clenched fists.

“She turned the leak into a rallying cry,” Belinda said, almost admiringly. “That wasn’t damage control. That was a reinvention.”

“She lied better than we did,” he growled.

Kingmaker’s voice buzzed through on his encrypted speaker. “Correction—she didn’t lie. She told the truth before you had time to define it. That’s always fatal in optics.”

“You said she’d fold,” Ethan snapped.

“I said she’d fight,” Kingmaker replied calmly. “You underestimated her. So now we must escalate.”

Ethan paused. “How?”

“We hit her from within. Not her image—her foundation.”

He opened a new document.

“Phoenix is built on credibility. If we can infect her internal team with a breach... the damage won’t be public—it’ll be surgical.”

Ethan narrowed his eyes. “You mean Camellia?”

“Still hesitant. But we don’t need her to break. We just need her to bend.”

  • Redeemed by the billionaire   Chapter Hundred and twenty

    The city woke slowly.Muted bells rang in the distance. Somewhere down the narrow street, a baker opened his shutters and arranged golden croissants in the window. Paris, in all its timeless rhythm, moved like a quiet breath through the streets below.Inside their suite, Sophie lay beneath a linen sheet, bathed in soft light. The warmth from the morning sun glowed across her skin as she blinked awake, her lashes fluttering against her cheek.She didn’t move immediately. She only stared at the ceiling and listened.There was something about mornings here — an elegance in the silence, like the world knew to be gentle. Beside her, Alexander was still asleep, arm draped across her waist, his breath steady and slow.She turned slightly to watch him.How strange, she thought, that the man who once existed on the edge of her life — cold, distant, unreachable — now lay inches from her, curled around her like he’d always belonged there.And maybe he had.Maybe they’d been writing toward this m

    Honeymoon in ParisThe black car pulled up to the curb with a gentle stop, its glossy exterior reflecting the warm pinks and golds of the early Parisian sunset. All around them, the city buzzed in elegant whispers — the soft clink of café glasses, the gentle rustle of wind through street trees, and far off, the hum of a violin echoing from a metro entrance.Sophie stepped out first, her heels clicking softly against the cobblestones as she took in the view. Before her rose the historic façade of their hotel — a five-star landmark draped in ivy and blooming white roses. Iron balconies curled like lace along every floor, and the windows gleamed in the evening light like old champagne.She tilted her chin up, smiling.“Welcome to Paris,” Alexander murmured behind her as he joined her on the sidewalk, his hand sliding along the small of her back. “Our first stop as husband and wife.”Sophie breathed it in. The air was rich with rain-damp stone, lavender, and a hint of espresso from a near

    The golden light had deepened.It wasn’t just morning now — it was late morning. The kind where the world outside had already begun its rhythm, but inside their villa, time seemed to obey a different pace.Sophie stretched out again on the bed, sheets brushing against her bare skin, the fabric cool and luxurious. Alexander had stepped away for just a moment — she could hear the soft sound of running water in the bathroom and the occasional shift of wood underfoot.The shirt she wore still smelled like him.A mix of cologne, salt from the ocean air, and something uniquely Alexander — warmth and cedar and the trace of last night’s closeness. She smoothed the cuff down her wrist and turned toward the terrace again.The view was no less stunning in daylight. A distant fishing boat moved slowly across the horizon, its white sail a small triangle against the vast stretch of blue. The water shimmered like glass, and far below, the cliffside garden bristled with pink bougainvillea.A door ope

    The ride from the Burnett estate to the villa was quiet.Not awkward. Not tense. Just quiet in the way two people settle into something deeply known. Sophie rested her hand on Alexander’s thigh, her fingers tracing small, idle patterns over the fabric of his tuxedo pants. His hand occasionally shifted to cover hers, gently squeezing in affirmation.Outside, the sky was velvet black, dusted with stars.The road curved upward. Then leveled out.The villa appeared — warm light glowing through arched windows, a structure of stone and wood tucked privately into the hillside. It overlooked a dark stretch of coastline, the sound of waves below barely audible from the car.Their driver parked and quietly stepped away after unloading their bags. No words were exchanged. No fanfare. Just stillness.Alexander unlocked the door.Sophie stepped inside first.The interior was breathtaking.Cream walls, wooden beams, soft linen curtains fluttering in the night breeze. Dozens of tea lights burned in

    The applause faded as Sophie and Alexander returned to their table.The first dance had left a hush hanging in the garden — not silence, but reverence. Something sacred had passed through the space, and now the world resumed in softer, slower rhythms.Guests returned to their conversations. The quartet shifted into a mellow tune, encouraging more couples onto the dance floor. Camellia, clipboard in hand, moved efficiently between tables, checking lighting angles and coordinating the next sequence with staff through her earpiece.Sophie took a small sip of champagne, her eyes following the flickering candlelight that danced across the glasses.Alexander sat beside her, one arm draped loosely over the back of her chair, his hand casually grazing her shoulder. She didn’t lean away.“Did it go how you imagined?” he asked.Sophie’s eyes stayed on the dance floor, watching as an older couple swayed gently in the corner.“Better,” she replied. “It felt… real. Like something that doesn’t need

    By the time dusk settled over the Burnett estate, the east lawn shimmered like something enchanted. Lanterns swayed gently from the high oak branches, casting gold light onto silk-covered tables. Fairy lights twinkled between the rose arches and glowed softly behind sheer ivory curtains. Everything moved like breath — subtle, coordinated, timeless.Staff dressed in crisp black and white moved like water, clearing empty glasses and replacing plates with delicate hors d’oeuvres. A quartet played from a low platform near the fountain, their music weaving seamlessly into the hum of conversation and clinking silver.Then the music shifted.A quiet roll of strings. A pause in chatter. The gentle sound of chairs being pushed back.All eyes turned.The grand double doors at the far end of the garden opened slowly.Sophie and Alexander stepped into view.She stood tall and poised, her gown trailing behind her like spilled silk and moonlight. The neckline caught the glow from overhead and spark
