Chapter Twelve

Isa

“Are you seriously at work the day after your wedding?” Lilly stated after slamming open my office door and plopping down on a chaise I had in the back of my office. “I distinctly remember you setting up a schedule so you could take a honeymoon or something.”

“Good morning to you. And thanks for just walking in. I’m working on projections and budgets. And you know I get crabby when I have to deal with budgets.”

Lilly ignored me and handed me a cup of coffee and a bag that I knew held my favorite pastries.

“First of all, I’m your best friend and business partner, I can walk in whenever I want. Second, your staff was freaked out at your seven a.m. appearance and called me to make sure you were okay. Thirdly, most people spend the nights and days after their wedding banging the headboard.” All of a sudden, Lilly sat up. “Please tell me you didn’t kill your new husband. Even your crazy connections won’t get you out of that.”

I almost laughed at her worry.

Lilly had been the one I’d run to after I’d discovered who Baz really was. She’d followed proper best-friend protocol and helped me plot Baz’s painful demise. Then she’d calmed me down and got me to realize that I’d have the rest of our lives to make Baz pay for lying to me.

“No, he isn’t dead.”

“And?”

“And what?”

She growled. “You’re so annoying. It’s like pulling teeth to get a straight answer out of you.”

“I’m not the one who didn’t tell me her boyfriend worked for my future husband.”

“You’re never going to let it go, are you? I didn’t know because I didn’t ask. And Kane likes his head on his shoulders, so he never talks about the people he works for. Now answer my question.”

“Was there a question in all that just came out of your mouth?”

“I swear, you make me want to pull out that gun you have hidden in your purse and shoot you.”

I smiled at her. “It’s not like you don’t have one of your own.”

“I feel it would be justice if I used yours.”

We glared at each other and then burst into laughter.

I loved this woman. Somehow, she always knew the right way to get me to relax.

Once we were in a semblance of control, she asked, “How did last night go? I couldn’t get anywhere near you after the wedding. It was as if Jonas Weber was making it clear to the world that you were a Weber now and not a Benz.”

I wanted to agree but I’d been so lost in my anger for most of the reception, I hadn’t even paid attention to Jonas. Well, except for when I overheard Sebastian tell Jonas to rein it in.

“What part of last night, in particular?” I knew where she was going with the question but I wasn’t going to make it easy for her.

Plus, how was I supposed to tell her that I angry-fucked my husband’s brains out but never really spoke to him?

“I should have known subtlety was never going to work with you.
