The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 178: When the Gamma Fell Silent
Elena reached for words, but they dissolved before forming.Her strength drained without warning. A sound of pure agony ripped from her throat. “Please,” she sobbed, “strike me awake and tell me this is a lie. How am I supposed to explain this horrible news to his daughter—Seraphina? How do I face Lexa and Aaron now?”Dolphus reached for her without a word. After speaking with the doctor, Elena and Dolphus stepped outside the doctor's office.Dolphus drove Elena back home but he couldn't hold back the tears burning in his eyes.He pulled over hard and stopped the car. His forehead struck the steering wheel as a bitter cry tore from his throat. Dolphus stayed still for a while before lifting his head and wiping his face dry.No words followed. He started the car and pulled himself together.The next morning, people streamed into the Farrington estate. Nearby packs and those from distant cities arrived to offer their condolences.Seraphina stood at the center of it all. Lexa and Aa
The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 177: When the False Mate Steps Aside
Cassandra wiped her face carefully, guarding her makeup.“I will sign,” she said softly. “But as a friend, in private, can you help my fiancé?”Drake lifted a brow.“You said Drake wishes to end the bond.”She nodded.“Even so, I wished him well. I loved him. Whether his love came from lost memory or not, it was real. That version of him cared for me. That wolf is gone now. I only want him to survive and rise again.”Damian smiled faintly.“You have a soft heart. But instead of asking me, it may be wiser for Drake to speak directly to Elena. Miss Amelia holds real power. If she opens her mouth, chains fall.”“Elena is the founder of Durok Biotech Company?” she whispered.Edward nodded.“Yes. You live in the world of lights and stages, not markets and power. Elena built the company herself. That is why Chairman Raphael Farrington placed her as Executive Vice President. No board accepts weakness. She earned her ground.”Carolyn felt the world tilt. Her ears rang. The room spun. She rem
The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 176:The Cost of Borrowed Glory
Seraphina laughed when Lexa pressed close to her. “Our Lexa wants me to walk her to school and bring her back too, yes?” Seraphina said, her voice was soft and teasing.Lexa rubbed her face against Seraphina's arm.“You are smart, Auntie Seraphina,” Lexa said proudly.Seraphina lifted her easily, holding her against her chest.“Alright. I will take our Lexa to her school and I will bring her home,” she said, still smiling.Then Seraphina turned. Her eyes settled on Aaron. The look changed. It became calmer.“Aaron has always wanted to be left alone,” Seraphina said gently. “Let Nicholas find tutors. You may choose who suits you.”Aaron nodded without fuss.“Okay,” she said.The matter ended there.Later that same day, Damian returned after meeting Elena. The moment his door closed, he called for his advisers.Inside Thompson Group, the battle between the three sons never slept. Damian stood firm among them. As the second son, his name carried respect. Choosing his savior as the globa
The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 175: The Pack That Failed Her
“Enough.” Ezra raised his voice. “Can you not see? She wants nothing to do with us. I mentioned Drake on purpose. She did not react. The man who once mattered more to her than her own life was discarded without a pause. What do you think we are to her now? If she turns away, why should we chase her like beggars?”Maya stepped closer, her eyes blazing.“So this is about pride,” she said. “Because the girl we once looked down on now stands above us. Brother, how much is pride worth. After all these years in business, do I still need to teach you this.”She turned sharply, yanked the car door open, and climbed inside, as she slammed the door shut.She knew Elena wanted distance. Yet everything she did was for Ezra. Inside the restaurant, Elena and Dolphus took their seats. “They are Drake's people,” she said. “Not mine.”“Ezra told you Drake was hospitalized. You did not ask a thing. Especially when Drake came last night to speak to you about how Morrin wants to cooperate with him in o
The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 174: The Scent of Power They Could No Longer Deny
They had never spoken it aloud, yet the truth had always lived in their bones.They believed Elena did not carry the same scent of status they were raised to respect. That belief had been pressed into them since childhood, shaped by family pride and old money rules. Because of that, they told Elena to step aside and release Drake on her own. They never once urged Cassandra to walk away. They never pushed Drake to show mercy or care. Back then, they judged Elena as a lesser wolf.Now the ground has shifted. Elena stood on a peak none of them could climb. Ezra faced Drake with a sharp gaze. “So tell me, Drake. Will you use your family to mend what you broke with Elena. If that is your plan, I will stop the others from chasing her. They will not hide behind you or the company just to reach her again.”He knew the truth. They all did.Every call made that morning had one goal. Elena now ruled a territory far beyond them. They could only look up. To approach her without shame, they neede
The Forbidden Second Marriage. Chapter 173: A Favor That Bound the Pack
Damian let out a low rough laugh. He finally understood the move Elena had made. Compared to the danger Cassandra caused by lying about being his helper to the Thompson Group.Elena was not only sharp-minded but also fierce. Damian slowly shut the file in his hands. His eyes lifted to her, filled with open respect.“No wonder Durok Biotech Company rose so fast,” he said. “Your mind is strong, and your instincts are sharper than most. Still, this issue must be discussed within my pack.”He did not return the papers. Instead, he set them beside him, claiming them without words. Elena caught the sign at once. Victory had already brushed her fingers. Damian lifted his glass. Samson leaned back and said, “Miss Elena speaks, and you accept it without proof. When Cassandra made the same claim, you never dug deep. That mistake cost you.”Damian did not bristle. Instead, his gaze warmed as he looked at Elena. “I trust her. She would not stain her name with lies. Failing to look deeper before
