Lillian had been used to these kinds of events. Nothing looks new to her. She wore aanemerald ddress,which was ex’s choice. He ordered the dress from his sstylist,and it was delivered to her immediately. She put it on and stood in front of the mirror, admiring herself in the deep green silky texture. She had pinned her hair to the back herself, leaving two loose pieces in front. When she came downstairs, Alex was already standing at the entrance waiting for her. When he saw her, he completely froze. She walked to him, and he became speechless. He just stared at her. They arrived at the event at eight at night, which was late. Alex’s hand settled at the small of her back the moment they stepped into th

Lillian found a small velvet box on her pillow at seven forty-three in the morning.She sat up right and looked at it for a moment without touching it. She picked it up after some minutes. There was a delicate gold chain on a small pad of black silk. It was so small she had to bring it closer to her, and then she noticed the small rose pendant. There was no note, not even a single hint, but she smiled, realizing that only Alex would do that. Alex was speaking on his phone when she found him in his study. He was standing at the window with one hand in his pocket. She stood in the doorway with the velvet box open in her palm and waited for him to finish his conversation. He finished the call a few minutes later, and when he turned around, he saw her standing by the doorway, and he smirked. "This was on my pillow," she said."I know.”He crossed the room. She held the box as he reached into it and lifted the chain between two fingers carefully and stepped behind her.She felt his

Lillian helped Mrs Steele with breakfast that morning. She had aways enjoyed waking up and helping out with breakfast immediately after her training.Now Alex’s home feels like her home because she interacts with everyone. Alex sat in the kitchen. His hands were resting on the table as his index fingers were going tick tick. It seemed like he had been seated there for a long time.She was already there when he walked in. She was standing at the counter with a cup of coffee, still wearing the clothes she had on that morning, looking out the window at the gardens below. She turned when she saw him and immediately read his face with the look he had on. “Alex, what's wrong? You've been like this for days.” she said. Alex shook his head. “No, Lilian I'm okay.” he said, trying to hide his facial expression. He didn't know how he would face Lillian and break such news to her that her sister had betrayed her. He doesn't want t be the one to cause such feelings. He had faced all his enemi

The lockdown started on a Friday, and by Sunday she was furious.She knew why she was angry. She was angry at Jessie. It had been days, and she had not spoken to Jessie. She wanted Alex to take Jusin from Jessie and bring him to live with her, but Alex declined because that would make Vicenzo’s cartel aware of his plans. He made sure to tighten security. Her movement has also been restricted, and she didn't know if she should blame Jessie or herself for choosing to stay with Alex. She has only one month left on her contract with him, but she is now in greater danger. The gym had been the first thing. Sam had explained it. No more off-site visits, no public locations, no movement outside the building without full advance coordination, and a minimum of two plainclothes personnel.She agreed to it.Then Jessie. The communication protocols that had been placed around her contact with Jessie were monitored by reviewers. She had found Alexander in the training room on the lower level, w

It's been weeks since after the argument between Alex and Lillian and the mansion had been quiet ever since. Not because Alex was cold, he wasn't. Nothing about him changed. He carried out his usual daily activities like he always did but there was distance bettwn him and Lillian. Lillian wakes up early to eat breakfast before Alex comes downstairs. She went to bed early before he stopped working and she chose to stay in rooms he wasn't in.On Thursday she walked up to Sam. “Hi, Sam. I'd really like to talk to Jessie,” she said. Sam looked at her with the careful expression of someone who had been given instructions about exactly this situation. "I'll confirm with Mr. Nick," he said.Alex agreed and gave his conditions that the call wouldn't exceed 5 minutes and it would be on speaker. She agreed without arguing. If it was a week ago, she would have argued but today she just wanted to hear Jessie and Justin’s voices. Jessie answered on the second ring."Lil," Jessie said. Her vo

The masquerade ball had been on Alex's list for four months. It is a charity commitment he made before his opposition became stronger. If he canceled it without a valid reason, it would signal weakness,, so he gave out invitations. They went.Lillian dressed in a black floo-lengthh gown that hugged her skin, a blackmask,k and a diamond necklace that costs a lot more than the price of a mansion. Alex dressed ina blackk suit with a mask that lasted only four minutes after entering the room before he pulled it off and tucked it into his jacket pocket. "You're supposed to be wearing the mask," Lillian said."I know.""It's a masquerade.""I'm aware of the concept.""Then…”"I don't hide my face," he simply said, his eyes scanning the room. She looked at him for a moment. Then she put her own mask back on properly and let him lead her into the room.The ballroom wasextraordinary,y with high ceilings, candlelight that reflected through the crystals on thewall,l and a lot of high-profil

Vicenzo was not what Lillian had imagined. She had built a picture of him in her head over the month with the way Alex spoke, his bodyguards, and the way Alex’s team lowered their voices when speaking about him behind closed doors. She had imagined someone who looked threatening in an obvious way—a physically imposing man with cold eyes and a deep voice. She was looking at anyone who could have been a charming boyfriend or a husband. He was perhaps in his 30s just like Alex.He dressed in an expensive designer suit and smiled warmly, his smile reaching his eyes. He gently reached for her hand and kissed the back of it, fixing his gaze on hers. She wasn't scared. She didn't call out of reach for the small alarming device that she had pressed in her hand before they left the mansion, which was fixed in the inner pocket of her dress. "Lillian," he called her name in his Italian accent. “It’s a pleasure to finally meet you. You don't look like what I expected.”"I don't know what you

The driver pulled over on the street she didn't recognize. Somewhere in the middle of the city under the streetlight that gave everything an amber color. Everywhere was quiet; the only noise they could hear was the noise of passing cars, which passed once every few minutes. He sat quietly for a moment, staring outside the window. “Come back in 5 minutes.”Alex said, and the driver stepped out of the car. Leaving Lillian and Alex alone in the car. He stayed quiet for a long time before gathering the courage to speak."Her name should never have crossed Vicenzo's path," he said."Your father kept it from him. For years. He moved money; he handled logistics;, he kept certain operations running without ever telling Vicenzo anything about his family. He was careful. He was very careful about everything. Lilian sat still watching him quietly. "Eighteen months before he died, Vicenzo received intelligence that a source inside his operation had been feeding information to an outside part

Chapter 80

The street was quiet and cold but she kept walking anyway… her heels clicking against the pavement. She didn't know where she was headed. All she knew was that she just wanted distance to clear her head and remove herself from being in the same space as Alex. That was fine with her and she welcomed it. She needed space, and she wasn't scared of what anyone would do to her. At that moment, anywhere was better for her, anything apart from being with Alex.She heard the car trailing behind her with the headlight flashing but she didn't turn around. She kept walking while the car continued following. She turned a corner and the car turned as well. Of course, he wouldn't leave her alone.She stopped at the end of the third block because her body became exhausted and her feet hurt from wearing heels. Inside her, she felt confused, her heart heavy and tears gathered in her eyes.She stood on the pavement for a moment, taking in a deep breath. She felt tired of everything. Tired of fightin
