Chapter 13 He Picks Me Up From Work

Lily’s POV:

“Well, that was an unexpected twist,” Brandon says, sitting back into the leather armchair.

I walk around the lounge room at the back of the auction house like a lion pacing in a cage.

“I’m sorry, is this supposed to be amusing? We had a deal!” I hiss at him. The whole point of paying Brandon was for him to get close to Tanya. How did that scrawny little nobody end up arm in arm with Marco?

Brandon examines his hands, absently picking at the dirt under his fingernails.

“The situation changed,” he mumbles. “It’s not personal, Lily; it’s just business. You know how auctions work, right? The prize goes to the highest bidder. You paid me well, but Alina paid me better.”

“If you betray me-” I start, but he cuts me off and moves swiftly towards me before I can muster a threat.

“Careful, little lady. I wouldn’t want you to break a nail. Nobility is such a delicate thing,” he whispers, his breath tickling my ear and making angry heat rise to my cheeks. “If I betray you, there’s nothing you can do about it. Or have you forgotten, Lily? I know your dirty little secret.”

He gives me a lazy smirk and turns away. As Brandon leaves, I reach for a teacup on the counter. I fling it in his direction, and it smashes against the door seconds after he closes it behind him. Porcelain shards litter the floor as I take a few steadying breaths. I straighten my back and brush off my gown, plastering a polite smile on my lips.

I walk out of the lounge, looking elegant and unbothered. There’s work to be done, and I still have a part to play.

For as long as I can remember, my life has been dull, dreary, and difficult. But ever since I met Marco, my world turned upside down. In all my life, I’ve never had someone waiting for me to come home.
