Chapter 133

“Your husband is magnificent, Belladonna,” Papa praised, a small smile on his face. “Our International affairs shot up as soon as he took over.”

I fought the urge to look over at Kade and kept my eyes fixed on Papa. “I told you he would be capable”

Papa nodded. “Indeed. I never doubted your decision. You do know what’s good for the company, after all.”

That last part wasn’t directed at me, but at the people who were gawking at me like I was an art piece exhibited at a muscum, looking for faults. But of course, they weren’t going to see any.

Medea was among those people, searching for faults like she always did.

I made a show of looking at her just to see what look she had on her face, and I wasn’t disappointed. The look on her face was filled with jealousy. Our eyes met and held. I made sure to keep looking at her, making sure she saw that there wasn’t any fault she could exploit this time.

She looked away first, her jaw clenched, and I smirked in victory.

“Go on,” Papa said, pointing to the front where Kade was still standing. “Let’s hear your report.”

I moved to the front at the same time that Kade was walking back to his seat. He brushed past me without looking at me but his pinky finger brushed against mine. I fought a shiver, last night’s memory trying to resurface but I pushed it down.

I still felt him between my legs, how hard he had fucked me. I was sore and every time I walked I was reminded of how he didn’t hold back. This morning, I had found myself in my room, clean and with fresh clothes and Kade was nowhere to be found, but that was expected.

I stood in the front, my nose in the air, looking down at everybody seated.

I began my report.

My report went on for about thirty minutes, but throughout that time, I held every single being in this room’s attention. Not once did they look away from me, not once did their attention flicker to somewhere else. No, I held their attention all through, and when I was done, they all stood up and applauded.

They wouldn’t see a signal fault. Not one. Because I’ve spent years building my armor, there wouldn’t be a single crack.

“Wonderful as always,” one of the executives, Mr. Rossi applauded, a smile on his face. “Once again, you’ve proved that the company is in safe hands.”

You can never tell with these people. You could never tell who was a friend or foe. They all wear the same mask, but some of them didn’t bother to hide their true feelings anymore.

Right now, I couldn’t tell which side Rossi was on, but I still slapped on a professional smile. “Thank you your kind words, Mr. Rossi.”

company, they knew it would flourish under my rule.

I didn’t know who my opponent was because they never showed themselves, but they should know by now that they’ve lost. The executives knew this as well, and that was why they were currently on the winning side even though they were gritting their teeth as they applauded.

They had no choice but to be, else they knew they were all done for when I took over.

I felt burning eyes on me. There were a lot of eyes on me in this big room, but these eyes burned hotter than all the others.

Medea, maybe?

I tilted my head and met those eyes, but they were mismatched.

I had made sure not to look in that direction throughout my presentation, because I didn’t know what emotion might show in my face.

But right now as I was looking into those deep, flat eyes, I couldn’t look away.

He was watching me with an intensity that I couldn’t decipher. That was a new look in his eyes, and for the life of me, I couldn’t understand it.

I forced my eyes away from his and looked back at the table. I bowed lightly, leaving the front and going to sit at Papa’s right hand. He patted my shoulder as I sat and I nodded.

Medea was next, but I didn’t look at her. Instead, my traitorous eyes strayed and landed on my husband.

He was looking at… Medea. He was giving her all his attention, and he didn’t look at me no matter how hard I glared at him.

What the fuck was so interesting about what she was saying? He didn’t have any business listening to her report with that much seriousness when her department was completely different from his.

And why was my chest burning? Jealousy? Hatred? Yeah, it was probably the two. I hated Medea with everything that I was so I wanted him to hate her too. I wanted him to be repulsed by her.

I looked away from Kade with my jaw clenched and looked at the witch, but her eyes weren’t fixed on me or on Papa like they always were, instead…

Without looking, I already knew who she was looking at. Were they holding eye contact? Why the fuck wasn’t he looking away? I wanted to throw up.

I looked at Papa and his eyes were fixed on Medea, but there was an odd look in his eyes as he stared at her, like he was observing the same thing that I was.

“Lo vedi?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper but it still shook. (Do you see it?)

Papa didn’t look away from her as he answered simply, “Sì.”

“Cosa sta traccipando?” (What is she up to?)

Papa finally looked away from me, turning to me with his expression calm. “Do you trust your husband, Belladonna?”

That question caught me off guard. I blinked at Papa, my heart kicking against my chest.

Did I trust him? Did I? I… I don’t know.
