Reborn Of The CEO’s Cold-Hearted Wife Chapter 134: A close Call.
Xavier didn’t move at first. He just stared at her.The way her eyes flickered,just a fraction too late.The way her shoulders stiffened before she smoothed them out.The way realization had clearly struck… and she’d tried to swallow it back down.The room felt suddenly too small.“You remember,” he said quietly. Not a question. “Don’t you?”Aurora’s heart slammed so hard against her ribs she was sure he could hear it. She didn’t answer. She slid off the bed instead, movements controlled, almost casual, as if he hadn’t just dropped a bomb between them.“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” she said, walking toward the door. “You’re imagining things.”She reached for the handle.Xavier moved fast.His hand closed around her arm, firm, unyielding, and before she could react he spun her around and pressed her back against the door. The impact wasn’t violent,but the intent was sharp, desperate. His palm braced beside her head, his body boxing her in.“Why are you pretending?” he dema

Xavier found Aurora in their bedroom, and the first thing that struck him was how calm she looked.Too calm.She was seated at the vanity, her hair damp which was a clear indication that she had just come out of the shower. Her movements was slow and unhurried as she brushed her hair back from her face. The room smelled faintly of lavender, something she must have sprayed before he walked in, and the quiet felt deliberate, curated, like she was reclaiming the space without acknowledging the storm that had followed him in.She didn’t look at him when he entered.“You brought her here,” Aurora said, her voice flat, uninterested, as if she were commenting on the weather.Xavier shut the door behind him and leaned back against it for a moment, gathering what little patience he had left. He had spent the short walk from Elara’s room to theirs, rehearsing this, convincing himself that once he explained, she would understand. Aurora had always understood. That was who she was.Or who she h

Xavier took the longest route through the mansion.Not because he needed directions.He knew every corridor and every turn in his mansion. But right now,distance mattered. Space mattered. Tonight, especially, separation was the only thing holding the fragile peace together.Lilith stayed quiet in his arms as he carried her down the hallway, her head resting lightly against his chest, her fingers curled into his jacket as though she might slip away if she loosened her grip. She appeared delicate, subdued, the image of a woman who had just stood on the edge of a balcony and stared death in the face.But her eyes were open.Watching.She noticed the change almost immediately, the way the warmth of the main wing faded, how the noise of the house softened until it was nothing more than a distant echo. This side of the mansion felt different. Older. Less lived-in. The air itself seemed to hold still.When Xavier finally stopped and pushed open a door, she glanced around slowly as he stepped

Aurora’s eyes flickered between them.First to Xavier, then to Lilith.They were standing side by side with her clinging onto him like she was trying to prove a point. For half a second….just half,her chest tightened. Not in pain, but in sheer disbelief. In a cold, cutting kind of astonishment that sliced straight through her ribs and lodged itself behind her sternum.He actually brought her here.Her fingers curled slowly at her side, nails biting into her palm. It was instinctive and automatic. The kind of reaction born from memory…raw, vivid memory. But Aurora forced herself to loosen her hand before the tension showed on her face.She lifted her gaze again, schooling her features carefully. She had to put up her amnesia act. She wasn’t supposed to know Lilith. Her expression went from Confusion, then to disbelief and finally to something softer. Something fractured.She tilted her head slightly, eyes dragging over Lilith’s face with deliberate slowness like she was shocked to se

Aurora noticed that Xavier didn’t come in with her.She registered it in the same detached way one notices a flickering light or a ticking clock…present, mildly annoying, but ultimately irrelevant. If he wanted to sit in the car and brood, that was his business. She had far more important things to do.The house felt different.It felt like she was a stranger in her own home. Well it wouldn't be for long anyways. She slipped out of her shoes and moved deeper inside, instinctively heading toward the living room where she could already hear Elara’s voice drifting from somewhere ahead, bright and animated, filling the space the way only a child’s voice could.Jaxon’s voice was absent.That alone told her everything.She found them on the floor near the coffee table. Elara was cross-legged, surrounded by colored pencils and paper, already halfway through what looked like a very ambitious drawing. Jaxon sat beside her, his knees pulled up, while his hands were tucked into the sleeves of

Xavier barely remembered the drive to the hospital.Red lights blurred past him. Horns screamed. His hands were tight around the steering wheel, knuckles white, jaw locked so hard his teeth ached. His mind replayed the nurse’s words over and over again like a siren that refused to shut off.Lilith was threatening to jump.By the time he pulled into the hospital driveway, the place was already swarming.Police cars had blocked off the entrance. An ambulance idled nearby with their lights flashing but their sirens mercifully silent. Firefighters were setting up a large inflatable rescue trampoline directly beneath one of the upper balconies.People had gathered. Too many people.Xavier slammed the car door shut and pushed through the crowd without slowing.“Mr. Steele!” someone called.He didn’t stop.Phones were already raised, cameras pointed upward. Whispers rippled through the air like smoke.“That’s her…”“I heard she’s his mistress.”“Can you imagine?”“They have a child together
