At the doorway, Raimondo stood with a deep frown, so drunk he had to brace himself against the frame to stay upright.I quickly ended the call with Lina, walked over, and helped him onto the bed before undoing his clothes. He grabbed my wrist, his dark eyes locking onto mine, as if trying to pry into my deepest thoughts.I flashed him a faint smile, slowly slipping my hand free as I denied, "You heard wrong, Raimondo. I was talking to a friend. She told me about a socialite she knows whose husband cheated on her. They're in the middle of a divorce and fighting over the assets. That's all."He stayed silent, his eyes still scrutinizing every shift in my expression. Suddenly, my eyes reddened and brimmed with tears. I was overcome with emotions. My voice came out trembling as I asked, "Raimondo, would you ever cheat on me, too? I'm not young anymore. Would you find someone younger, sexier, and more innocent to keep you company instead?"Raimondo raised a hand and gently wiped the t

Raimondo's POVA sharp ringing filled my ears, drowning out everything around me. It was as if I had lost all sensation at once.

The pause stretched so long that even the Consigliere couldn't tell whether he was overwhelmed with excitement or furious at the fact that it had taken him so long to find me when I had been so close all this time."Ms. Serafini just left. Our men are already following her," the Consigliere said. He hesitated before asking, "Do you want us to bring her to you?"Raimondo refused almost instantly. "No. Stay on her tail. I want to know exactly where she goes, who she meets, and where she lives. Within 12 hours, I want every single detail on every employee in that startup."…That afternoon, Lina returned from the city after finalizing the major deal. Her expression was noticeably heavier than usual.She set her bag down, and unlike her usual excitement about contract details, she went straight int
