[Juliette’s POV]

I folded my arms, pretending to appear vexed. “What makes you think so?”

Ralph blinked in confusion. “You’re so into clothes and grooming. And you seemed very enthusiastic discussing fashion with Monsieur Kugefield, so I thought—.”

I grabbed my hips like a runway model showing off my white dress, its skirt dancing in the sea breeze. “Clothes maketh a man, don’t you think?”

His laughter rang over the crashing waves.

“Why do you laugh?” I wriggled my nose and snorted. “If business suits did the same as an A shirt, would you still wear them?"

He scoffed. "You mean 'brand maketh a man'. Don't look at me like that, Juliette. That Miracle Dress is ten times the cost of one McLaren!"

The remark appalled me. "So what? I can afford it."

He rolled his eyes. "You mean 'me'–I paid for that."

"With MY money," I retorted with a hard glare.

With both hands tucked into his pockets, he chuckled and nodded in a knowing defeat. "You made your point."

Then, he strolled ca

    [Juliette’s POV]Ralph’s face jerked up and he stared deep into my eyes, as though searching for something. Was it something I said? What did I say, I couldn’t remember. Ah well, it’s not important. I reached up my fingers to stroke his jaw, ticking my fingertips with his stubble, and giggled. “Do you love it when I touch you, Ralph?” He lowered his lips on me and kissed me, slow and tenderly, as though he had all the time in the world—as though he was making love to me with his mouth. I yanked his shirt off his shoulders and kneaded his warm, hard flesh of his barreled chest, the way he liked it. Then, I slid my hands around his waist to his back and clutched him closer, so he nestled between my thighs. He tore his lips away and stared at me. “I want to show you what I see when I’m inside you.” My eyes widened in shock and then flared in embarrassment. “Wait, Ralph—!” He pulled me off the table and turned me around to bend me over the wooden edge, so my breasts were crushed a

    *WARNING: This Chapter Contains Sexual Violence.* [Luke’s POV] “Get it, baby! Yes! Yes! Fuck me harder!! YES!” A female screams filled the hotel room as Luke repeatedly rammed into her from behind, grunting along to his own build up of ecstasy. He sank his nails into the plump flesh and spread her butt cheeks to go deeper as he continued thrusting brutally. Every hit of the roof made her tremble, clinching him as though her life depended on it, giving him the satisfaction that he needed for his own release. “Argh!!” Luke thundered in fury. After all that he had done for her, all that he had told her, why didn’t Juliette do anything?! Well, she did—she kissed that son of a bitch before the entire fucking world and made that glorious introduction of her new status as the wife of Ralph Virtus. DAMN YOU, RALPH VIRTUS!!! Luke’s mine screamed, and slapped the crimsoned skin twice. “Work harder, Melissa!” he roared. “Yes, Luke!” squealed the girl in delighted pain and squee

    [Juliette’s POV] I get it — Ralph never regarded anyone in the Virtus clan his family. Not his father, nor his brothers. Why should he? They all wanted him dead. This time, I didn’t feel sad, I felt angry. Ralph’s father took him away from his mother, only to have him murdered by his brothers. Ralph was right, the man is a hardcore psychopath. I lifted my chin to kiss the rough skin underneath his chin. “How did your mother end up taking the poison? Didn’t you say that your father threatened all these women to stay away? He even killed two of them who tried to sneak into the mansion.” Ralph chuckled dryly. “She changed her appearance and got herself a servant’s job at the Virtus mansion.” What a smart woman! She knew that an arrogant man like Damien Virtus wouldn’t give a shit about the servants, so he wouldn’t pay attention to the lot, and she could secretly stay near her son to keep an eye on him. And saved his life. “She’s a brilliant and brave woman, Ralph.” I leaned

    [Ralph’s POV]“Those sharks fell for it,” Ben’s voice rang in my ear. “Her trick worked like magic.” “How much was their bid?” I asked the phone, my eyes fixed on the slender figure seated on the deck beyond the closed glass door of the living area, out of earshot. “A hundred and twenty percent — as she had predicted.” “Fuck…,” I breathed in disbelief. “Yeah, that’s the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw the numbers,” Ben remarked. “The Lux’s gift is not a hoax.” “We know it isn’t.” I swallowed to push down the lump of bewilderment. The gorgeous creature was now standing, gazing ahead. Ben added, “I just didn’t think I’d be lucky enough to experience it firsthand, you know what I mean?” I knew exactly what he meant. That exactitude of calculation is not humanly possible with even the most brilliant economist. It was as if the world was designed by her calculations. “... you managed to pacify her?” Ben’s voice snapped me back to the living area. “Yes,” I groaned.

    [Juliette’s POV] Ralph looked as if he had just been named the valedictorian. “Harold Lux had the same vision for Lux Corp?” I nodded in excitement. “Yes! We both realised that our markets are saturating. The rich couldn’t get any richer. We could pump in more for R&D, to level up our innovations. But the plateau is inevitable.” Ralph turned to face me completely. “That’s why he wanted to sell WhizTech.” Again, I nodded. “We need to lessen our load in order to continue moving.” “Cut the deadweight.” “It sounds cruel. But numbers are numbers.” I shrugged. Ralph gazed into my eyes. “I didn’t want to say this, but it does feel good knowing that I share the same views as your father.” I pulled back with a suspicious smile. “Are you into Papa?” He threw his head back and expelled a hearty laugh, and I giggled along. As the laughter subsided, he shook his head in disbelief and said, “If I had a choice, I’d rather be born a Lux than a Virtus.” Instantly, the cheerfulnes

    [Juliette’s POV] He was smiling at me with the smile Papa has whenever he’s with mother. A smile that seems to say ‘This is the woman who made me feel like the luckiest man on Earth’. A strange feeling coursed through me from my toes as I stared into Ralph’s eyes, those alluring golden swirls around his black irises. We are at a place where reality couldn’t reach us. We have no last names, no status, nothing. There’s only us — Ralph and Juliette — tonight. This one night, we are just us. Just this one night I want to be his Juliette. I lunged over, got on my knees, and took his lips for a hard kiss. He was taken by surprise at first, then his lips parted and I slid in my tongue to caress him. My hands cradled his masculine jaw to hold his face in place so I could explore more of his mouth. His hand came up to my waist, pulling me closer to return his affections with increasing passion. “Juliette,” he groaned into my mouth. He liked what I was doing. Smiling, I grabb

    [Juliette’s POV]I was stunned for a second, then I grabbed my elbow around his neck and rested my left cheek against his. “I care for you, Ralph,” I whispered into his ear and kissed his earlobe. “Fuck.” He stiffened and his biceps clamped harder around me as his hips moved faster, and he thrusted more rapidly into me, making me numb all over with pleasure. “Say it again, Juliette….” “I care for you!” I cried, tears streamed down my cheeks, scalding them. “I care for you, Ralph! Oh shit, I’m close…,” I squeaked meekly, a wave of tension seizing me.“You feel something for me, don’t you?” he asked firmly. “Yes!” I gasped. He pulled me away and his fierce gaze was fixed on me. “You can only have me, Juliette. Do you get it?” I kissed his mouth to silence my own wishes, but he broke away and held my gaze. “ONLY ME, JULIETTE.” Arrogant, stubborn and bossy ox. “Yes!” I kissed the area between his eyes. “I’m yours, Ralph. Only yours.” “Fuck, I’m close too!” He pressed our forehea

"I've read all the science reports and there's nothing wrong with HFE-10!" I crossed my arms and glared at the stubborn ox. "We have to release the drug soon and get leverage!" Ralph lifted a glare at me. "You may be a fact sponge and a business genius, Juliette. But I know a lot more about drugs than you do! And I said we need to test the revised formula for magnesium!" I thrust a hand at the door and exclaimed, "They've done all the tests! And the results are all positive!" He threw out his palm in anguish. "Were you sleeping just now? They didn't redo the magnesium test. It was a convenient assumption!" I gripped my hands in annoyance. "A convenience based on a perfectly scientific reason — the Mg levels won't fluctuate!" Ralph closed his eyes and took a deep inhale. When he opened them, they were warning me. "It's just one test,” his

Chatri couldn’t tear his gaze away from it, making sure the light doesn’t go out Across him, seated on the row of plastic chairs, nestled safely between his wife and his mother, his precious fourteen-year-old daughter was praying hard for her saviour too. It was near his heart. Guilt burned the back of her eyes. Ralph-kun… I blamed you for destroying the peace that we’ve paid with our blood and sweat to get. Yet, you did not leave me alone. You fought by my side. You kept your word. With your life. Is this the root of your men’s loyalty? Three hours ago, when they got to the van, her daughter was a crying mess, her almost naked body would have been in full display if it weren’t for that bloodied jacket. Ralph Virtus was sprawled at the van’s entrance, hanging on by a thread. Chatri had to get in the chopper. Footsteps snapped him back to the silent hallway.

    [Juliette’s POV]“My father has brought us to the next level—there’s no doubt about it. But as you can see, the charts do not lie. Lux Corp will not survive the casino’s first quarter if we sit back and do nothing.”I gazed firmly around the room. These so-called shareholders of Lux Corp. I need to break their resistance and knock some sense back into them. The oldest one of the group cleared his throat and muttered in a haughty slow pace, “So what you’re saying is: remove Harold Lux as Chairman and put you in charge.” Another guy quickly added, “We don’t do this sort of thing.” Then, the third man snorted in derision. “I’m actually surprised that you gathered all of us here today without the Chairman. If he gets wind of this—.” “He won’t if none of us talk about it,” I snapped, frustration in my throat. What’s with the surprised looks and frowns of disapproval? Aren’t they as much of a businessman as Papa? Can’t they see the signs? The fucking obvious signs! Suddenly, Papa’s de

    [Sarah’s POV]She can’t believe it. The unbeatable, ever invincible Don Ralph—the monster in the devil skin; a heartless murderer with the killer sense of an Olympic shooter; king of the world’s most ferocious mafia groups—is completely useless against an infant that’s less than an hour’s old. If it weren’t for Sarah’s fierce insistence and fearsome glare, he wouldn’t even hold his own child. ‘What if I break his neck?’ whispered the poor man, his eyes unable to stray from the tiny creature in his frozen arms. ‘Stop it,’ snapped the caretaker. ‘Sway gently, and you’ll be fine.’ She glanced at the bed and Juliette, who was sleeping soundly, and then back at the man, who would probably feel as though he’s on top of the world right now. Is he going to cry? ‘So what’s his name?’ asked Sarah, swiftly diverting those tears from crystalising. Without looking up, he muttered, ‘Milo.’ Then, he glanced at his sleeping wife and a proud smile appeared. ‘Milo Virtus. The first of the many.’

    [Juliette’s POV]‘I am not selling anything.’ Papa’s eyes were filled with so much distaste, I felt ashamed for calling myself his heir. ‘I’m surprised that I have to remind you of the rules now. You wanted a vacation, and I gave you one. Now, you can’t even remember the simplest thing.’ My mouth opened, my explanation ready like a debate team, but I clamped my lips tight. He doesn’t want to hear anything right now. Right now, he only wants to vent. We’re losing money fast since twenty of our suppliers had suddenly asked for a price review.‘I do remember them, Papa,’ I murmured sourly. ‘Then why are you even suggesting that we sell off our least money-making businesses?’ he demanded angrily. Because that could stop more money from going out! My mind was screaming like a child being blamed for something that she didn’t do. Isn’t it common sense? When things get rough, tighten your pockets! Or is this yet another test? But I’m so done with all the tests! With the baby about to co

How did this happen? How did it slip by him unnoticed? The casino. He’d lost track. Damn his old man’s genes. They’re so useless, they made him useless as well. ‘You had no problems with the price for decades. Now, out of the blue you want—not one percent, not two—but a three percent hike?’ His knuckles were paling, bearing all the rage which only kept spiking. The calm voice at the other end of the phone irked Harold further. ‘My apologies, Mr. Lux. But you know how this works—we can’t hold down the price for any longer,’ replied the thirteenth supplier. ‘It’s been three decades since our last review. We hope you understand.’ Everyone wants his understanding. What about theirs? He’s cash strapped! Whose fault is it? If he didn’t build the casino for these bloodsuckers, he wouldn’t be stuck!

    [Juliette’s POV]And then it crashed onto me. Like a boulder. I observed those golden swirls in his eyes burning with hurt and that hurt clenched my chest. Utensils down and my mouth wiped, I reached across the table and covered his hand with mine. ‘Growing up, I imagine the Virtuses as cold-blooded monsters,’ I began. Those brown irises dilated with fury, and I slipped my fingers through that large hand and rubbed my skin against his to calm the fire. ‘Because of all the stories I’ve been fed—we’ve all been fed.’ To his tensed jaw, I muttered softly, ‘I must speak for everyone, Ralph.’ ‘You’re not telling me that your father was fed the same story. He came to me with the aim of stealing my family’s land, Juliette.’ ‘I’m not saying—.’ ‘Stop defending him!’ Ralph jerked his hand out of my grasp, fuming. But his eyes never left me, which was a good sign. So immediately, I leaned forward and pleaded, ‘I’m not defending him.’ ‘Then what the fuck are you doing?’ ‘I’m trying to te

    [Juliette’s POV]I smiled at the man gently resting his hand on my belly, so careful, so timidly, I almost couldn’t recognise him. Is this Ralph Virtus, the Mafia King? The one whom everyone calls The Devil? The handsome beast with the wits of a chess master. Those cold, fierce eyes were filled with so much fear that I wanted to hug him and squeeze those bad thoughts out of him. Those same golden brown eyes now widened in amazement as they swung up to me. ‘It moved.’ I chuckled and covered his hand with mine. ‘Of course it does, silly.’ He gazed at my stomach, his pupils dilating some more. ‘It’s kicking.’ He looked up, worried. ‘Does it hurt?’ I shook my head. ‘My chest just feels tight when it happens.’ Then, his ears were on my belly, listening intently. As amusing as it was watching his face change colour every second, I can’t help but worry that the next second something will happen to destroy this peaceful moment. As though he read my thoughts, his attention was back on

Is this what a baby does to a woman? ‘I did not say that.’ As soon as I heard my voice, I froze again. Shit—that was cold. Quick—correct it. ‘I mean—I don’t mean what I said.’ I tried to grab her hand but missed it. ‘Juliette….’ Her shoulders were shaking too. ‘Jesus… you’re not crying now, are you?’ What? No. That came out wrong again. What the fuck is wrong with me? She spun around in full rage. With tears gushing down her steamed face, she jabbed a finger at my shoulder. ‘YES! I’m crying like a clingy pathetic woman! And whose fault is it? Who put this thing inside me?!’ She pointed at her round belly protruding proudly through her skirt. “WHO?!”I laughed. It was unplanned. Before I knew it, I was already holding my waist to steady myself. My shoulders were shaking, my chest was rumbli

Of the baby dying inside Juliette’s stomach… or Juliette dying with the baby—yes. We were talking about that old fox and his shady business. My finger stopped tapping. ‘I’m closing all of it down.’ ‘No offence, nong Ralph.’ The Thai leader burst through. ‘My elders love khun Lux. It won’t be easy to shut them down.’ Chinh was frowning too. ‘You close down one, another will pop up. Who’ll say no to money?’‘Money and power,’ mumbled Andrei. ‘I’ve told you before. Harold Lux is well-connected. I can’t have the boys going against me. There are many who’ll have my head and you said that you’ll handle it. So all I have to do is focus on protecting my family from the ollies.’ ‘And this doesn’t change that,’ I repeated firmly. ‘I failed to see how,’ muttered the cool and collected Isamu. ‘Harold-san gi
