Chapter 42Lily's PovI couldn't believe it. As soon as Richard stepped into the house that evening, he handed me the keys to a brand-new Lamborghini. My hands shook as I took them from him, and my heart skipped a beat.“Wait, what is this?” I asked, almost in disbelief.“This is for you,” he said, his eyes soft but serious. “And these two men here…” He gestured to the men standing beside him.I didn’t even notice them at first. Jason was a tall, muscular man with a cool, composed expression, and Ken, a quieter man, stood by his side.Jason stepped forward. “I’m here to protect you, Miss Lily. From now on, I’ll be with you wherever you go.”Ken, standing just a bit further behind, added, “And I’ll drive you anywhere you need to go.”The words barely registered. My thoughts were still stuck on the Lamborghini. My mouth felt dry, and I struggled to find the right words. But as I looked back at Richard, I saw something in his eyes that made everything fall into place.He loved me. He car

Chapter 44Lily's povI woke to the soft rays of the morning sun filtering through my curtains. The warmth touched my skin, coaxing me out of the sleep I didn’t want to leave behind. I stretched, feeling the familiar ache of yesterday's energy, and got up to greet the new day. Today was Monday—another week, another chance to move forward. I let out a long breath, gearing myself up for the day ahead.I walked to the shower, letting the lukewarm water rush over me. I closed my eyes, letting the water cascade over my body, washing away the remnants of sleep. As I stood there, I couldn’t help but think of Mia’s cheeky grin when she asked about Richard. “Is he good in bed?” she’d asked, her voice full of curiosity.I smiled at the memory. I had given her an answer, of course, but I’d gone into detail. Richard was far better than Mark—better in bed and in every other way. The thought of him brought a rush of warmth. I remembered the way his hands had felt on my skin, the intensity of our co

Chapter 46Richard's Pov PIt’s been over a week since the incident with Lily. I lay in bed, trying to sleep, but I couldn’t shake the image of her face from my mind. The frustration in her eyes when the financial department rejected her request for funds to buy some much-needed tools still lingered in my thoughts. She didn’t show it, but I saw through the mask. She was upset, and that bothered me more than I cared to admit.I couldn’t let it go. Lily, in just a few months with the company, had proven herself more than capable—more than most of my managers who had been here for years. She understood the work. She knew how to get things done. She was good at what she did. And yet, they couldn’t see that.I rolled over on the bed, pulling the covers over my face, but sleep wouldn’t come. The thought of her, frustrated and helpless, gnawed at me. I had to do something. I had to make it right.And then there was the other issue. Lily. She’s my woman. Someone I trust. Someone I love more t

Chapter 48Lily's PovRichard returned to the office, and the energy was electric. Smiles stretched across every face, and cheers echoed from every hallway. It was one of those moments that didn’t need words — victory had a scent, a sound, a rhythm. And today, it belonged to Richard.When Mark shook Richard's hand respectfully and said” congratulations sir,”, his voice steady and eyes clear with joy, something inside me settled. I had doubted him, silently accusing him in my heart. I thought he had a hand in the chaos we’d faced, that maybe envy and jealousy had tainted his loyalty. But in that moment, I realized how wrong I had been. His pride in Richard’s success wasn’t just real — it was loud and genuine. There was nothing to gain from Richard’s downfall, and his paycheck was the smallest part of what tied him to this place. He believed in the man he worked for.I slipped into Richard’s office, closing the door softly behind me. He turned, and his face lit up like I was the prize h

Chapter 50Lily's Pov ““What is wrong with you, Mark?” I asked angrily the moment I managed to pull myself free from his grip.He looked at me like I had just insulted his entire existence. “Don’t pretend you didn’t enjoy this, Lily. What do you see in Richard that makes you keep pushing me away? Huh? Does he kiss better than I do? Talk to me!” His voice cracked with a mix of jealousy and frustration. “What do you want me to do for you to see I’m still in love with you? That I need you back in my life?”I stepped back, heart pounding. His eyes were wild—too wild. “Stay away from me, Mark. I’ve told you before, and I’m saying it again: I want nothing to do with you again ”I turned to walk away, but he grabbed my arm again—harder this time—pulling me toward him, trying to kiss me.Before I could scream, another hand shot out of nowhere and yanked him away from me.“Didn’t your mother teach you not to force yourself on a woman, Mr.?” It was Jason. My bodyguard. My quiet shadow.I had n
