If there was one thing Millicent knew about Austin, it was that arrogant smile. It was the kind of expression he always wore when he thought he won something, especially a battle.

And, if he was acting like that while being accompanied by the other company executives, then it was certainly not something good that was coming.

“Hello, gentlemen.” She smiled her best diplomatic smile, as if she didn't have a care in the world as she picked up another glass and approached them “Are you enjoying the party?”

“Yes, Miss Bianchi. Despite all the financial problems he has faced in recent years, your uncle clearly still has a lot of support to receive. I am sure he will get through this crisis with ease.” Mr. Young, one of the executives who Millicent knew to be one of the closest to Evan, ran his eyes around the room, not really looking very pleased that Dante was so close to overcoming all the boycotts that Emma was promoting and that no one seemed to have the courage to mention “As expected,

Guess Isaac and Millie could go on that trip, and Austin could stay and keep working. Not a good idea have both team leaders out. And who better that the owner to assess the best company....

Huh, looks like Isaac is really angry and very very jealous. He’s so possessive of Millicent. This really shown his deep feelings for Millicent. I think if he lost Millicent, he will be very miserable.

    “Mr. Carnby…” Mr. Young was the first to speak, looking as shocked as Millicent felt to see Isaac act that way, his hateful gaze in his brother’s direction, making no move to let go of Austin’s wrist “I think you misunderstood what we were talking about. There is nothing personal about the proposal we just made to Miss Bianchi…”“And, even if there was, none of that is your business!” Austin growled, but even his best efforts didn't seem to be able to make him escape Isaac's grip “We're talking about something that will contribute to the company you've invested millions in, as you always make a point of repeating. Isn't that why you appointed my ex-fiancee to oversee my project? To make sure you always had an eye on everything? Or could it be that, in the end, all you wanted was to keep your eyes on something else, Isaac?” he sneered, with a smirk “It seems not everything is completely under your control, as you like to pretend, right?”Millicent waited for Isaac to rebut his brother w

    “Millicent! Millicent!” Austin’s scream echoed through the halls, closer and closer to Millicent’s ears, but she didn’t let it bother her. Instead, she continued to stare at the laptop on the table, standing next to Laura Poulin, until the office door finally opened, making a loud clang as if it had been kicked.“Millicent!” Austin growled, his face almost scarlet with anger “What did you do…?” he was in the middle of asking the question when he finally seemed to notice Laura standing there, which caused his posture to change drastically, like a flame hit by ice water “Mrs. Poulin… Why didn't you tell me you'd be in the office today? I would be delighted to welcome you to my office...”“Mrs. Poulin is not only involved in the films and series that will come out of your project, Mr. Carnby.” Millicent snorted, straightening up “Anyway, we're having a private meeting. Why did you come into my office uninvited and cause such a commotion?”“The reason? I just found out that you broke an ag

    After everything she had gone through to get to that position, Millicent never thought she would be distracted during a meeting with executives. But, that was exactly what was happening at that moment. And there was only one culprit, the same one who was sitting by her side in the meeting room.Isaac Carnby.In another of many moments of weakness, she glanced in his direction out of the corner of her eye, only to look away quickly when she found those blue eyes fixed on her. Damn. Her body missed him. Madly. She couldn't deny it. However, a part of her was still angry with him. And her pride simply couldn't allow what had happened at her uncle's party to be forgotten so easily. If they really were partners, then he had to learn to communicate with her, especially about serious matters, like what he had insinuated about Austin. As much as her lips were burning for his kiss, Isaac needed to learn to be honest with her. After all, what did he think his mouth was for? Just to touch his lip

    Greco's Strip Club smelled of smoke, alcohol and sex. A smell so strong that it seemed to permeate everyone there, from the burly security guards guarding each of the doors and the completely naked women gyrating in the polidances. Even Isaac felt like that smell would stay in his nose forever, even if he had only visited that club a handful of times. When it all started, he thought he would have to become a regular at that place to get what he wanted, like the rest of the drunk men scattered around. However, Ugo Greco seemed to have made plans for him sooner than Isaac expected.“Here, handsome.” the waitress who had guided him inside the club stopped in front of a huge iron door that appeared to be armored, an inviting smile on her face “You can ask the girls inside whatever you want, but don't forget that I saw you first, yes?” When he simply ignored her and went to open the door, the girl just snorted, “Still playing hard to get, I see. I can increase the discount I said I would g

    “I hope you don’t mind giving me a few minutes of your time, sweetie.” Fiona smiled, her body expression and murmured voice making it clear she was, once, certainly very seductive.“Should I be interested in something that cannot be heard by Mr. Greco?” Isaac shot back, but his words only made her laugh.“Why, darling. Anyone who does business with the Greco’s is part of the family and you shouldn’t act like that towards the family.” She placed her hand on his shoulder, stroking it for a second, before he moved away “Besides, it's not like I'm wanting to do anything out of Ugo's eyes. I just know this is a subject that bores him, but I have a feeling it won't be like that for you.” “Maybe, if you take the trouble to be a little more direct, I can tell you whether I’m interested or not.”“A straightforward man, I see. Well, from what I've heard about Evan's plans for you, I can't say it's your fault for being so grumpy like that.” she sighed, falsely worried, but obviously didn't pursu

    “That’s what you call capture?! Where did you put the fucking wire I gave you? In your ass?” Commissioner Wilson shouted, making Isaac roll his eyes.“If you are incompetent and cannot capture the evidence you prepared yourself, then it is not my problem.” he sighed “I could have ended up with a bullet in my head if that piece of junk of yours had let out one last hiss, but you’re not listening to me talk shit, are you?”“Listen here, you son of a bitch…”“Calm down, Greg. The boy has a point. Don't forget he is our best tool right now. None of the others managed to approach the Greco’s as successfully as he did.” Wilson’s right-hand man, Detective Holloway, interceded “Relax a little. What we captured was enough evidenc

    If Millicent had known those three days of workshopping for Austin's team would be so tiring, she would have tried harder to keep Austin around and forced him to act as a leader, rather than running away and leaving all the responsibilities on her shoulders.“Gosh…” she sighed as she finally sank into an armchair in the anteroom of the company auditorium. On the other side of the wall where she was leaning, the last lecture of the day had ended and now the entire team was free to talk and enjoy the buffet she had hired for that occasion. Well, at least they all looked happy and excited, ready to go back to work full steam ahead the next day. It made Millicent feel like all that effort had been worth it.“If you ever ask me to help you with something like that again…” Cassie, who was already leaning back in an armchair on her side, mumbled “Our friendship is over. And I don't care if it counts in my time bank. I would a million times rather spend all night working for Mr. Davis than ru

    “And then, just when I was really starting to believe we had lost all of the film's footage, my assistant managed to find a single backup saved on one of the editors' computers.” the young man in front of Millicent concluded his story with a relieved sigh, almost as if he was reliving that moment “That saved my ass. I could never redo the filming with that first budget Mrs. Poulin gave me.”Millicent was relieved to be able to smile at that moment, as it helped her suppress a yawn. It wasn't like poor Mr. Lloyd was extremely boring or anything. He was a dedicated apprentice to Laura and a film director who was shooting his third independent film. His humor was pleasant and he had even insisted that she just call him Albert. Under other circumstances, she would have been more interested in hearing him talk about all this. But, God, she was so, so tired... After days of preparing for the workshop, she had still spent more time there, talking to Laura's partners as they left one after the

    “So when exactly are you going to finish babysitting your boyfriend?” Laura snorted, her voice sounding almost like a hiss on the other end of the line “I have important things to discuss with you and your father.”“I’m sure you do.” Millie laughed, pausing to take a sip of her coffee “So, it looks like Emma really is willing to pitch in now, doesn’t it?”“Oh, of course she is.” even though they were miles apart, Millicent knew her aunt was rolling her eyes just by her tone of voice "She wouldn't let go of the opportunity to end everything her half-sister had built through the mafia. And she would also never allow her long-awaited victory to be tarnished by the news of the appearance of her illegitimate daughter." “Dad commented that she still seems to be acting emotional around you…”“Don’t be fooled by that old fox’s acting.” Laura scolded, clearly uncomfortable "She doesn't care about anything or anyone but herself.

  • Revenge with my Fiancé's Billionaire Brother   Chapter 144 - Isaac

    Isaac hated hospitals. That smell of antiseptic and metal seemed capable of permeating his skin and Isaac could recognize it anywhere. Even in moments like that, when his eyes were so heavy they seemed to never want to open again, he was able to recognize where he was just by that terrible smell. He had stopped in hospital rooms several times throughout his life and, usually, it was an indication that he hadn't been careful enough. What had it been that time? His head was hurting too much for him to remember, but Isaac still struggled. There was pain, his face wet from something hot that was probably blood, and the loud sound of metal… Just like when he had almost died when his car's brakes were cut when he was 18.So, Evan had managed to get him into a hospital bed again. How predictable. He had been more creative before.A soft sob from his side made something inside his chest flutter. Which was ridiculous, because it wasn't like Vincent or Dominic would cry if they came to visit.

  • Revenge with my Fiancé's Billionaire Brother   Chapter 143 - Isaac

    Sometimes, Isaac missed how his life was half a year ago.It was equally terrible, of course, but at least he wasn't so aware of it. He could fill his days thinking only about revenge and living as if the only truly functional organ in his body was his brain. But now, here he was, haggard and miserable, only because the rusty thing inside his chest had decided to work. At least, before returning to America, he didn't miss anyone or suffer from the same loneliness that had accompanied him since his birth.Now, even in moments like this, when he should have been focused only on his plans, all he could think about was Millicent.With a heavy sigh, Isaac took a step towards the underground parking lot of his building when the elevator doors opened. That day was being especially difficult because he still hadn't managed to shake off the tension from the previous afternoon, when Dominic had almost ruined everything by allowing Millicent to overhear part of their argument. At least, she didn

    Millicent had spent almost the entire day on the phone without actually speaking. She had dialed the same number over and over again, with adequate intervals between calls, of course. She wanted information, not to be a nuisance. However, as her time at the office drew to a close, she was ready to give up for another hour and get ready to leave, until, to her shock, that last call finally went through."Hello, Mrs. Bianchi. I was hoping you'd call again. I'm sorry we didn't answer sooner.""Don't be sorry, Tyler. You shouldn't worry about anything other than your mother right now." Millicent responded to the youngest Davis son, a boy she knew was the same age and attended the same school as Alessandro “I just wanted to know how your mother's condition is."“She’s… Stable now.” Her heart sank at the way he avoided using the word 'fine' "She woke up for a while this afternoon and managed to eat, but... She's still very much in shock. She even asked if everything that happened on Sunday

    Silence took over the room for a moment, so deep that Millicent could swear she could hear everyone's heartbeat there. Just like her face was at that moment, everyone had expressions of shock, worry and expectation, as they waited for Emma’s reaction…With the exception of Massimo, who has a huge Machiavellian smile on his face.Emma's response, however, was probably nothing like either of them expected. First, her face filled with shock and terror, which was certainly quite predictable. But instead of starting to scream and deny, as Millicent thought she would, Emma remained silent, as gradually the horror on her face gave way to anger, then shame, sadness and, finally, resignation.“So…” Emma’s voice trembled, just a ghost compared to how she was acting a moment ago. “It’s really you, isn’t it?”“What did you give me?” Laura sneered, indifferently.“You… You still look like him.” Emma said that with her eyes focused solely on her own hands, nervously twisting the skirt of her dress

    "Massimo, if we're going to do this, then I think you should at least try to hide your mocking smile. I don't think anyone will have any doubt that our intentions are not good if they see you entering my mother's house." Dante sighed, straightening up in the seat of the limo they were all in, clearly nervous."What are you talking about? That's my normal face." Massimo shrugged, that smile only widening “Can’t a man be in a good mood anymore?”“You don’t even know what Laura’s plans are for tonight, Massimo.” Alice lightly elbowed him, "She's not necessarily going to make a fuss or embarrass Emma. If you're expecting a show, you might end up disappointed."“Well, I could certainly use some entertainment, but I don’t care.” "I would love to see Emma's expression when she finds out that we all know she has her own illegitimate child, but just being able to walk through her house tonight and look into her face knowing that is enough."“I just hope that whatever Laura is planning really co

    "Why did you come back?" Millicent questioned, frustrated "You clearly left not only your name and your life, but also your entire past behind. Anyone can see that you got the happy life you wanted, alongside your husband. So... Why now? If you didn't come back for so many years, even knowing the kind of person you had left Isaac alone with... What changed?"“I always wanted to go back for Isaac.” she stated, shrinking "But... Circumstances were never favorable enough... Until he became an adult and it seemed to be too late. But, I never left him helpless. Neither he nor my brother." Imogen chewed on her lower lip "I shouldn't have been surprised that Vincent suspected I was alive. He was always good at seeing more than other people were capable of. That was one of the reasons I left Isaac. I knew his uncle would protect him, especially after he turned 18. I just didn't expect Vince to involve him in his damn revenge plans!" Imogen growled "He should have left Isaac alone! Help him go

    “You can start talking.” Millicent snapped, after several minutes had passed, lengthening that terribly uncomfortable silence between them “That's what you came here for, isn't it?”"Yes, I..." Imogen's voice shook, almost breaking "It's just... I think I spent too much time trying to forget the past. Talking about it isn't as simple as opening your mouth and letting the words come out." She massaged her own throat for a moment, as if it were actually a physical pain “How much… How much do you know about what my life was like, when I was still Imogen Carnby?”“I know what your son and your brother told me.” Millie sighed "I know your relationship with your father wasn't good and your marriage with Evan was terrible. But, I still don't think that justifies it..." “Terrible is quite a kind word for my situation at that time.” Imogen interrupted, with a dark smile "It's not like I blame Vincent for not knowing how to tell my side of the story properly.
