Chapter 0013

GINEVRA

One week later.

“Oh. . .Hi, Cassie! Why’re you just standing there? Come in.”

My personal assistant strutted into my office and began assisting me with the files I had to organize before I retired for the day.

With Cassie by my corner, my work ran smoothly. She was an angel, specially sent my way to make my life a little easier than it had been. She had always been there to help me whenever I ran into any unforeseen problems with the business.

Cassie cared for me like a sister, and it hadn’t taken too long before I began letting her into my deepest, darkest secrets.

Of course, not every information was shared, but she knew enough. Enough to know that the legal businesses my family ran was a front for something far more dangerous.

Letting Cassie into that part of my life was my way of baiting her—I threw her a bone and waited for her to fall into my trap, but she instead proved herself worthy enough to earn my trust.
