I saw her before she entered my office. Through the cameras. Small figure. Nervous hands. Pale face. She had been sitting in the waiting room for twenty minutes, staring at her intertwined fingers. She was afraid. Good. Anyone who came to me without fear was either stupid or suicidal. 'Boss?' Matteo asked. I lifted my gaze from the papers. 'She's here.' 'I know.' I pushed the contract aside and stood up. The dark jacket stretched across my shoulders as I walked to the window. Below me, the city pulsed, but my mind was already on the woman who believed she could get money from me without giving anything back. Nobody got anything for free. I hadn't built my empire on generosity. A knock. 'Come in.' The door opened slowly. She stepped inside. Smaller than I had expected. Tired eyes. No expensive dress, no jewelry. Only desperation. She raised her gaze. For a moment, our eyes met. She held his gaze. Not long. Then she lowered her gaze again. Interesting. 'You want money?' She gave a barely visible nod. 'How much?' She named the sum. To me, it was meaningless. An amount I spent daily on wine or security guards. For her, it was apparently everything. I picked up my phone. 'Transfer the amount. Immediately.' No questions. No discussion. When I hung up, she looked at me as if I had performed a miracle. If only she knew. 'Why are you helping me?' I suppressed a smile. Helping. What a harmless word. 'I don't help anyone.' Silence. 'I make deals.' She swallowed. 'And what do you want for it?' Now it became interesting. I pulled the prepared contract from the drawer and placed it in front of her. 'A marriage.' Her eyes widened. 'Five years.' 'You're joking.' 'Do I look like I'm joking?' No. I never did. She shook her head. Of course, she didn't understand why her of all people. She also couldn't know that I had been searching for weeks for a woman who was clean. No scandals. No connections to the underworld. Someone who would appear credible in public. My family demanded a marriage. The press demanded stability. My business demanded an impeccable image. Love played no role in it. I had given that away long ago. To Piper. Everyone thought I would marry her one day. They were wrong. Piper was the biggest risk of my life. Too impulsive. Too unpredictable. Too well-known. She could never become the woman at my side. But she would never accept that. I looked back at the young woman before me. She didn't know what she was getting into. She believed marriage was the price for her freedom. In truth, it was admission to a cage. And as soon as Piper found out I had married, the real hell would only begin.
開場白
The rain drummed against the floor-to-ceiling windows of my study. I liked rain. It swallowed sounds. Washed blood off the streets and made people make mistakes. With a glass of whiskey in hand, I looked at the wrought-iron gate of my villa. The next moment, an unremarkable car drove up the driveway. “She’s here, Boss,” Matteo said behind me. “I see it.” On the surveillance camera screen, a young woman got out. Dressed too plainly for my world. No expensive jewelry.
