[Juliette's POV]

I looked at Ralph in the mirror and the lipstick halted on my lips.

'So your conclusion is nothing happened to her on the boat.'

The man with the strapping build of a wrestler and the stoic expression of a bull pulled one end of the dark blue tie forward and wound it around the knot.

I pursed my lips and put down the lipstick. 'She could be embarrassed about her situation so she pretended to sleep. Have you thought about that?'

Those brown eyes studied mine and then he sighed and walked over.

He kissed my right ear and let his lips lingered an inch from my earlobe.

'Jewel is not an average woman, Juliette.'

'But she's still a woman. And she was alone with sixty seven men for five nights.'

He kissed my earlobe and a shudder passed through me. His arms came around my shoulder and he buried his face in the side of my neck.

'You can tell the exact number of men at one glance?'

I leaned against him and sighed. 'Ralph….' I meant to tell him to kiss me but m

    [Juliette’s POV]‘So he went ahead with my recommendation and picked his PA!’ I beamed at the sexy hunk sitting across me. ‘That’s great news, right?’ ‘Because he’s warming up to you?’ asked Ralph before tipping his glass of wine. ‘Uh-huh.’ I watched my fingers rub the base of the glass stem. ‘This means that I’m one step closer to becoming a part of your family.’ I lifted my gaze and he was watching me meaningfully. ‘You’re already family.’ ‘Just on paper.’ I held his gaze. ‘Aren’t you happy that I made progress?’ ‘I am.’ ‘You don’t look happy.’ I pouted. He put down his wine glass and his gaze softened. ‘That’s because you’ve been talking about another man for the past thirty minutes. And I’ve told you, I’m a very suspicious man.’ ‘But it’s Fillipo I was talking about—your favourite guy—okay.’ I grinned at his brows in their warning knit and added, ‘Ben settled Marco. So now all of your Directors have their own PA. I’ll send you a summary of their bio later.’ ‘That’s one th

    [Juliette’s POV]The door closed and the lock clicked. This is expected of Randy Virtus's household—maximum security and zero humanity. I scanned the room and realised that it was the guest room—the least important room of all rooms in a rich man's mansion—and sighed a helpless sigh. I’m in big trouble. There’s nothing here that I can use. The room is almost empty except for the furniture. And I can’t leave. Plus, I have to finish cleaning or they’ll be suspicious. One mistake and you leave. No pay, no coming back here. Humph! That dull expression of the housekeeper, a large lady with breasts the size of two pumpkins stuffed in the most boring black dress (black again). That grey expression can zap the fun out of a lollipop.Let’s see… let’s start with dusting then. I still remember it, Margaret. Dust, change the sheets then vacuum. I took the feather duster and started at the row of cabinets next to the main exit. There are no drawers… no shelves… no books… no photo frames…. Je

    [Juliette's POV]'You followed me?' I hissed, not hiding my annoyance. 'Count to twenty then leave,' he snapped back. Though it was a soft whisper, his frustration was still clear. 'I'll leave the door unlocked.'Did he know about my secret plan to slip in as a maid to check on Jewel? Or was it a simple coincidence? If it was, then is he here for Jewel? If it wasn’t then how did he get in here? Many questions burst into my head, but, in the mix of emotions, I only managed to utter three words. 'Wait—why? How?' 'Not now,' he grunted and was gone. I didn't even get a good glimpse of him! Goddamn it! What if it wasn’t Ralph? What if it was Randy or the butler? He would grab me once I came through the door. But then he could’ve just grabbed me and thrown me in there with Alfeo—that’s Alfeo, I’m sure—the hair, the ghostly complexion, the lanky physique. It’s definitely Ralph. Damn, I’m in trouble.

    [Juliette’s POV]‘Absolutely not.’ The Don’s glare was like a gun at my head, warning me to stop suggesting stupid stuff and quit taunting danger. ‘But, Ralph, you know that it’ll help!’ I grabbed his hand on the dining table and held it to my lips, begging like I was to papa for that pink Barbie school bag. The ex-Mafia King yanked his hand away and stood angrily, his chair pushed back with a sharp drag. ‘Jesus Christ, Juliette, who the fuck do you think you are? Why doesn’t it get into your thick skull that you’re gonna get killed? Do I really mean nothing to you?’ He roared, his voice pounding the high walls of the dining area, shaking any glassware. Despite the fearful looks of the staff and Margaret, I couldn’t stay down. I bolted to a stand, gripping the edge of the table to muster the strength, and blasted out my thoughts. ‘You mean everything to me, you dumbass! That’s why I want to do this!’ He shook his head with a dry chuckle. ‘Oh no, you don’t. Not this time, Juliett

    [Ralph’s POV]I watched her chew with a cheery face and felt curious—and a little jealous. Who made her smile like this? Have I ever made her smile this way? The masticated meat in my mouth slid smoothly down my throat and I laid down the knife and fork to fetch my glass of wine. Swirling the contents, I asked, trying a casual tone, ‘What’s the good news?’ Those purple eyes looked up with a beautiful sparkle that deepened the sour feeling in my chest and lit the fire in my heart at the same time, and her sexy lips curved up in her enchanting smile. ‘I was just thinking about Filipo—.’‘Jesus Christ….’ I picked up the glass to my lips and took an extra sip. That again? She wouldn’t stop talking about it on the way here, blabbering on about the kid and his PA, and how she felt that something good was going to happen between them. Is she a fucking matchmaker now? And when was Filipo ever interested in girls and romance? That purple gaze turned mischievous ‘Aww… jealous are we? Cut

    [Juliette’s POV] Two days later… I entered my office at the Virtus HQ building and on my desk, in front of the keyboard, was a box of chocolates with a ribbon slapped in the middle. It startled me. Given my popularity here, the chocolates must be laced with poison. I sat on my chair and stared at the innocent looking balls of dark brown sweetness, planning my next move—keep or eat? Then, I glanced at the dustbin beside my desk. ‘It’s not poisoned, damn it.’ I jumped up with a fright then saw Filipo at the door with both hands tucked in his pockets. His face had its usual frown but it somehow felt less hostile. ‘Why?’ I had to ask. ‘What does it look like?’ Filipo’s face turned grouchy. My gaze bounced between the gift and him, and then I said, ‘A bribe?’ He shot a surprised and annoyed look at me then stepped into my office and snapped, ‘Christ—it’s a thank you gift!’ Oh… I mouthed and looked down at the neat rows of chocolates. This signified a huge step. This mean

    [Jewel’s POV]‘What the fuck is this shit?’ The director, the princess of the ex-Second in command of the Virtus clan, stared in disbelief at the page of fainted words, slanted by the old cursive style. We started the feud… she thought in dismay. The old ledger clearly says so. Numbers may not be the Virtus’s game, but that doesn’t mean she’s dumb in it. She’s as good as that Lux whore. And smarter. She slammed the book shut and threw it on the carpeted floor of her bedroom with a huge disappointed ‘humph!’So what if they were the ones who started the feud? The feud has happened and it’s still rooted deeply in many members of the Virtus clan, especially the younger ones who adore and look up to the older ones. ‘I can twist things around. Easy peasy.’ She snickered and lifted the corners of her mouth. ‘All I need is a token to start the machine rolling.’ Her pretty lashes fluttered as she glanced at the phone lying quietly on her bed. That dumbass Marco is taking too long. Donk

    [Juliette's POV] His hand slammed over my tied wrists and grabbed it as an anchor to ram in another, stronger and deeper than the one just before. A hard moan of extreme pleasure screamed from my throat. 'Deeper, Juliette?' His husky voice sounded in my left ear, the darkness amplifying his sexiness and the thrill of his promise. Oh, fuck yes… I want it. But will it tear? He's larger than usual, for some reason, and it feels even better, I'm not gonna lie… 'Deeper it is,' he grunted and slammed in another, striking the same spot twice as harder. Burst. His name tore from my throat as I was seized and everything shook like a 10.0 earthquake. 'Fuck, kitten,' he grunted and plunged in another one—and another wave of intense euphoria gripped me. 'Ralph!' I sobbed. He stiffened, his own pleasure spilling in low, sexy groans, and then relaxed again. And then a caress across my forehead and then the binds came off. Followed by the blindfold. I winced from the glare as hot

    [Juliette’s POV]Before the door came to a close behind me, Pauline said—-or whispered—beating me to the first word, “I think your father made it very clear over the phone yesterday, Juliette.” Here goes. I grabbed the iPad tightly and lifted my chin, not responding to a word until I sat down, and I took the seat next to Papa. The more Pauline spoke, the softer and more scratchy her voice got, which pains me to listen to it. I had to fight the urge to wince in sympathy. “So, here’s the deal, Juliette. Hand over the evidence you have, and we’ll back you up as CEO of Lux Corp.” I was stunned speechless. This was totally unexpected. Instead of giving me a laundry list of excuses, or berating me for scaring away all the investors, Papa is asking for the evidence I have at hand. He only wants the evidence? But—. “I don’t get it,” I blurted, completely taken aback. “I’ve shown it to you before. But you still chased me out.” My anger had swarmed in. “YOU THREW ME UNDER THE BUS.” Paul

    [Juliette’s POV]The thought of dancing under the moonlight, amidst the warm sea breeze, has never crossed my mind until Ralph suggested it. “You’re such a bore.” He smiled with a teasing gaze as I did two twirls. He caught my waist at the perfect moment and pulled me close, snuggling my curves against his frame. That proud toothy grin of his made my heart lose its rhythm, and I lowered my chin to hide the heat in my cheeks. Hooking his elbow around my waist, he leaned in and whispered into my ear, “Why are you blushing?” “Because you’re handsome,” I whispered back and felt a shudder up my spine. Damn, that’s cringey. Thank God, he laughed at the right moment, or I’d have blushed harder. I grabbed more of his back to snuggle deeper and let my left cheek rest on his chest of muscles. Then, very naturally, a sigh of peace and relief left my lips.And very naturally too, he chuckled softly before planting a kiss on the top of my head. “Phase 1 over, kitten.” I closed my eyes to savo

    [Juliette’s POV]Things turned out according to Ralph’s prediction. Papa’s gold mine got the news of my findings about Lux Corp and raced against time to meet me. Since there were over a thousand of them, from every corner of the world, Ralph suggested that I meet them all at once. With the help of an ally, we managed to rent a private island that was off the grid and had everyone gathered there for my presentation. It would be a massive one as I would be talking to thirty at a time. Am I nervous? Of course, I am. Even with Papa’s training, the nerves were still there. “You’ll be fine, kitten.” Ralph kissed my fingers, then brushed a loose strand behind my ear. “Numbers are your game.” “I know.” I checked the cue cards for the forty-first time. “But that doesn’t take the nerves away. It’s all your fault. You’ve turned it into some fucking TED talk.” Ralph chuckled. “Even if you cursed out there, it’ll be fine.” An hour later, I was done explaining to the audience of fifty ultra

    [Juliette’s POV]“Those VIPs of his casino?” I asked, still in disbelief. He flashed a nodding grin, and I jolted upright, a surge of admiration and awe to my face, and I beamed, grabbing his hands in excitement. “That’s what you’ve been up to?” Then, logic jetted in. “But how? Papa and I are the only ones with that list. And those ultra rich don’t listen to anyone but Papa.” “They listen to the one who leads the people doing their dirty jobs.” I stared speechless at the man who once saved me from a drug lord, and tried to sever all ties with the mafia, get his clan members cleaned up, and reform his family business. This man had done his best to go against the impossible, push the flow and ride the currents. Never once did he bow to failure, except to learn from it. Now, he’s back in the shadows, unable to shake off the darkness and his past, yet he shines far brighter than anyone. Papa may be standing in the light, but he’s as shady as a shady businessman can get. He was study

    [Juliette’s POV]I woke up to the most handsome face and the scariest pair of eyes staring at me in the fiercest silence. “Ralph?” I grabbed my throat. “Damn, what’s wrong with my voice? I sound eighty years older.” A glass of water appeared before my eyes and a low, sexy voice gruffed. “Drink.” The cool rim wedged between my lips and the sweetest water carefully slipped in. I sipped hungrily, emptying the glass with a sigh of satisfaction, and a Kleenex pressed the corners of my mouth. “Why did you put sugar in water?” He laid my head cautiously on the pillow. “I put nothing in the water.” “But it’s sweet.” My eyelids felt heavy. “Sleep.” My eyes flew open. It was my turn to stare at the beast till he asked what’s wrong, and I told him. “You’re upset.” “Because you were sick.” “Was I?” I checked myself for scars, and memories of the past forty-eight hours swiftly slotted back into my calendar. Ralph worry-stricken face calling my name repeatedly, stroking my face to get a

    [Ralph’s POV]Robert’s gaze shot a warning that was the same as mine: it’s a trap. I held a finger to my lips—an instruction for him to not be heard—and he solemnly nodded. Then, I said, “Why?” “It’s Juliette.” The voice sounded secretive and rushed. “I can’t explain anything. But I’ll get her out. You have to take her away.”It was then I smelled danger and shot forward in my seat to the desk where the phone rested. Still, something feels off. “Why should I trust you?”There was a pause and then a sigh. And then the same voice lowered and exhaled. “Her child needs her, doesn’t he?” Fuck. Fuck that dumb Ben. Fuck that smartass lawyer. The fact that he knew about Milo set off all the red alarms. I sprang into action, like the pathetic Ben who had lost that darn phone and leaked all the secrets. The desperate rush to fix everything right. Oh, her crying had weakened. I rubbed her back in a comforting way, the way her housekeeper always does whenever she’s upset. She pulled back and

    [Juliette’s POV]Way to go, Juliette. You fell for your father’s old tricks, and then you fell for some stranger’s weird tricks. Just because he knows your name and says it out loud, you got into his car. Great. I’m going to be trafficked as a sex slave. Milo. I’m never going to see him again. And Ralph. A clean tissue entered my view. My view was misty, so I blinked to clear it, and then realised that I was crying. Quickly, and embarrassingly, I grabbed the offer and dabbed my eyes. The man cleared his throat and repeated my name, and I gave a cold chuckle. “Yes, my father sent you, didn’t he? To get rid of me.” Both open palms waved frantically. “No, Miss! I mean, Madam. I mean, Dona.” “Who the fuck are you?” I wailed. “Just tell me. I can take it!” God, I sound pathetic. But I can’t seem to stop. “W-wait—.” His phone was out, slapped to his ear, and it rang once, then a voice came on, loud and clear. “Yes.” That deep gruff. I spun around like a deer caught in headlights.

    [Juliette's POV]Paul caught a glimpse of his bleak future and plonked onto his seat in a pale face. The shareholders around Paul shared his misery while others stared puzzled at Harold Lux as he moved towards the throne at the front of the conference table. He moved past me as though I had never existed, and cold guilt stabbed my chest. “Young people.” Papa sighed. “Give them one tiny piece of candy, and they think they own the entire formula.” Everyone ignored Papa’s invitation to return to their seats. Then, Uncle Jerry stepped forward to deliver the King’s instructions. “The contract is in your email.”“What contract?” I jolted a curious look at Pauline who was reading off her mobile screen, her brows growing closer with surprise and anger. . I felt a crack in my hope and made a lunge like Paul’s.“Don’t sign it!” I yelped, desperation clawing the air. “If you invest more money, Lux Corp would pop like a bubble! The debt’s too huge—we’d be bankrupt before the casino’s ready!”W

    [Jewel’s POV]This idiot. She glared down as the baby drank quietly. How dare he ignore my calls! Is he an idiot? We can’t even tell how long those two idiots are going to take, and he wants a baby now? Her finger tips caressed those tiny plump cheeks, and her mouth curled up in a loving smile. It’s not that I don’t want a baby. Heat of worry and anxiety swarmed to the back of her eyes and knocked her eardrums. The Virtus princess perked up with vigilance. Hugging Milo closer to cocoon him from danger, her gaze bounced between the main door and the bedroom door, her Virtus mind calculating and reciting the drill. Bedroom, lock door 1, bathroom, lock door 2. Two knocks. Three knocks. One knock. The Virtus code. Jewel crept closer to the tiny slit between the main door and its frame, and a familiar voice hissed through. “Peach.” Instantly, she unlocked, and the door flung back—only to shut tight. She was in the arms of the man who’d never stopped loving her since they first met. D
