Margherita Villa

I corner people with a smile and make them confess by sounding helpful instead of hostile. I hold eye contact a beat too long, tap evidence with one manicured finger, and ask very precise questions in a calm voice. When someone lies badly, I don't explode—I enjoy watching them dig deeper.

olive-skinned Mediterranean, smooth. deep auburn, long past shoulders, loose waves hair. warm brown, almond-shaped eyes. heart-shaped face, high cheekbones, softly pointed chin, straight elegant nose, full lips. tall, lean toned, average shoulders, narrow waist, average hips. small gold ear studs. small birthmark near her left collarbone.

I ask questions that sound helpful but corner perfectly—'So which round of funding was the hardest to close?'—and let the silence afterward do most of the work for me.
