Elias’s POV

I stood by the window of my bedroom. My hands were shoved deep into my pockets. Below me, on the front lawn, I could see the reporters. They looked like ants crawling over each other.

They were waiting for me to come out and cry. They were waiting for me to say I hated my wife.

They were going to wait a long time.

"Elias? Are you still in there?"

It was my mother’s voice. Beatrice had been knocking on my door every thirty minutes for the last five hours.

"Go away, Mother," I said.

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 164

    Back at the Vane Group headquarters, the afternoon was moving quickly.Elias sat behind his massive mahogany desk on the thirtieth floor, reviewing the latest financial reports on his desktop computer. The market had reacted surprisingly well to the news of Sirius's arrest. Once Emily's exclusive article went live, detailing how Elias had exposed the internal corruption himself, the company's stock price bounced right back up, regaining all its lost ground within three hours.A soft knock sounded on his office door.“Come in," Elias called out without looking up from his screen.The heavy door opened, and his executive secretary stepped inside holding a small tablet. "Mr. Vane, the legal team has finished submitting the final paperwork to the district prosecutor's office. Sirius Vane's bail hearing has been set for tomorrow morning, but Prosecutor Tim assured us that bail will be denied due to the flight risk." "Good," Elias said, signing a paper on his desk. "Tell the legal team th

    The quiet inside the boardroom following Sirius's arrest was heavy. For nearly a full minute, none of the twelve board members made a single sound. They sat frozen in their leather chairs, staring at the empty doorway where police officers had just dragged out the former vice chairman.Elias stood at the head of the long glass table, entirely unbothered by the chaos that had just unfolded. He slowly unbuttoned his suit jacket, sat down, and reached for his leather briefcase.He looked toward the back corner of the room, where Emily was standing beside his corporate legal team. Her face was pale, but her hands were steady as she held her digital recorder."Did you get everything?" Elias asked, his voice cutting cleanly through the silent room.Emily swallowed hard and nodded. "Every single word."Elias turned to his chief communications officer, who was sitting near the middle of the table. "Hand Miss Emily the official police statement and the financial documents we filed with the pro

    The black SUV pulled out of the estate driveway. Elias sat in the backseat, his leather briefcase resting beside him. Across from him sat Emily. She was staring out the tinted window, her arms crossed tightly over her gray sweater, refusing to say a single word.Two security SUVs followed closely behind them, keeping a tight formation as they navigated through the heavy morning traffic toward downtown.Elias checked his wristwatch. It was 7:20 AM.He pulled out his phone and made a single call. "Is Prosecutor Tim in position?""Yes, Mr. Vane," his lead security officer replied from the front seat. "Three plainclothes officers and the prosecutor are already waiting in the private underground parking garage of the Vane Group headquarters. The rest of the police unit is staged two blocks away.""Good," Elias said flatly. "Make sure Sarah is secured before eight o'clock.""Understood, sir. Team two is already outside her apartment building."Elias ended the call and slid his phone back in

    THEA The quiet hum of the heart monitor filled the white room. Sunlight moved slowly across the sterile floor, casting long, warm shadows over the foot of the bed.Darius shifted under the thin cotton blanket. His eyelids fluttered, heavy with sleep, before he opened his eyes completely. He blinked a few times, adjusting to the soft light, and turned his head toward the side of the bed.I sat up straight in the leather armchair, setting my hands gently on my lap."You're awake," I said, my voice soft and clear in the quiet room.Darius took a slow, deep breath and let out a tired sigh. He rubbed his face with his hand, trying to shake off the remaining heaviness of the medication. Then, his eyes met mine, and a faint, relieved smile touched his lips."Thea," he murmured, his voice slightly raspy from sleep. "How long have I been out?""Not too long," I replied softly. "The doctor was just here twenty minutes ago. The toxic substance in your system is completely gone."Darius sat up s

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 160

    THEA’s POV I opened my eyes before the sun was fully up. The sky outside the large master bedroom windows was still a pale, hazy blue, slowly turning into the bright orange of early morning.I didn't stay in bed. I stood up, tied my silk robe around my waist, and walked out into the cold hallway.Two of Elias’s guards were standing outside the east wing guest suite, looking straight ahead. They straightened up the second they saw me approaching."Unlock the door," I told them, my voice calm and even.The lead guard hesitated, looking at me with a bit of uncertainty. "Mrs. Vane, Mr. Vane said the driver would pick her up at eight—""Unlock it," I repeated softly, looking him straight in the eye. "I am not asking you to let her leave the house. I am inviting her to breakfast."The guard swallowed hard, nodded, and swiped his keycard across the digital lock. The door clicked open.I pushed the door open and stepped inside. Emily was already awake, dressed in the same sweater and jeans f

    ELIAS’s POV I stood near the edge of the bed, staring down at Thea. Her question hit the air as she waited for an answer."You know that Emily knows too much about my family," I said, keeping my voice steady. "My father had a lot of dark secrets, and she managed to dig up information on his past business dealings. Things that could ruin our standing if they ever saw the light of day."Thea tilted her head slightly, her face completely unbothered. "If you are worried about that file, you can stop. I collected everything Emily investigated on before she left The Daily. I have all her notes and documents."I looked at her, surprised for a fraction of a second before my cold expression returned. "It doesn't matter if you have her notes, Thea. If Emily found that information once, it means she can do it again. She is a persistent reporter. Leaving her loose right now is a risk I can't take.""She won't do it again," Thea said plainly.I frowned, confused by how sure she sounded. "How can

In my last life, I would have cried. I would have begged him not to say such scary things. But that Thea die

    THEA’s POV The morning news was a bloodbath. I sat at the long, marble breakfast table, sipping my coffee and watching the television mounted on the wall.

    THEA’S POV Elias leaned in until I could feel the ghost of his breath against my lips. He was waiting for me to flinch. "You think you’ve grown claws, Thea," He murmured, his voice dropping to a low, dangerous vibration. "But you’re still in my house. You’re still wearing the ring I bought you. An

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    Bloody wake up call

    THEA’s POV The hospital room was too quiet. I lay there, my body feeling like it was made of lead. I couldn't move my fingers. I couldn't open my eyes. All I had left was my hearing, and the sound of the heart monitor's steady beep... beep... beep... "Is it done yet?" That was Maya’s voice
