THEA’s POV

Elias’s voice cut through my panic. He had been waiting in the outer lobby for the meeting to finish. Before my lawyer could explain what happened, Elias was by my side.

He dropped to his knees next to my chair, his large, strong hands grabbing my wrists and gently pulling my hands away from my face.

When he saw my tear-stained cheeks and my wide, terrified eyes, his own face filled with a mixture of shock and intense panic.

"What did they do to her?" Elias roared, turning his h

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 190

    ELIAS’s POV The memory flashed instantly in my head.Maya had arrived at the Vane estate with a troupe of paid paparazzi hovering outside the gates. She had carried a stack of forged medical papers, loudly claiming that Thea was mentally unstable and needed to be forcibly checked into a psychiatric facility for her own health. It had all been a desperate, dirty ploy because Thea had blocked a major Sterling stock transfer that would have lined Arthur's pockets.That afternoon months ago was the very first time I had actively stepped in. I had torn up the papers, threatened Maya with legal ruin, and chased the paparazzi off my property, keeping Thea safe inside my home."They used hospitals as weapons against her for years, Elias," Liam said softly over the phone. "Every time she went near a clinic, it meant isolation, fake diagnoses, and being controlled by people who hated her. To you, a hospital represents safety and family planning. To Thea, a hospital represents a cage."I close

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 189

    ELIAS’s POV The master bedroom was completely quiet, save for the soft, steady rhythm of Thea’s breathing.I sat on the edge of the mattress, my hand lightly resting over hers. She had finally fallen asleep, her pale face relaxed against the white pillows, her long dark eyelashes casting faint shadows on her cheeks. The intense, terrified trembling that had taken over her body at the hospital gates had entirely vanished, replaced by the peaceful stillness of rest.I pulled the duvet a little higher over her shoulders, leaned down to press a quiet kiss against her temple, and carefully slipped my hand out from hers.Stepping as softly as I could, I walked out of the bedroom and pulled the heavy wooden door shut until the brass latch clicked into place. I walked down the carpeted hallway and descended the marble staircase, my mind heavy with a dark, suffocating cloud of worry.In all the months we had spent together, I had never seen Thea look at anything with such pure, visceral terro

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 188

    THEA’s POV The sudden realization hit me like a physical blow.The gray stone exterior, the sleek tinted glass doors, the manicured private driveway, everything about the building in front of us screamed cold, clinical memories I had tried so hard to leave behind.I sat completely frozen in the front passenger seat of the SUV. My breathing turned shallow and fast, my chest constricting as if the air had been entirely sucked out of the cabin. My fingers dug deep into the soft leather of my handbag, trembling so violently that I could barely keep my grip.In my first life, this was where my body had slowly given up. This was where the endless sterile hallways, the quiet whispers of nurses, and the cold indifference of doctors had marked the final chapters of my existence. Five years of marriage, five years of overworking myself to exhaustion, of trying to be the perfect, silent wife while being drained by Arthur, Sherry, and even Elias, it had all ended right behind those heavy glass

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 187

    THEA’s POV The gentle morning light filtered softly through the sheer white curtains of our master bedroom, painting warm golden streaks across the duvet.I opened my eyes slowly, feeling a deep, cozy warmth wrapped around my body. My head rested comfortably against the soft pillows, and a peaceful quiet filled the room. For the first time in what felt like forever, the sharp, anxious tightness in my chest was completely gone. The constant dealing with legal files, court dates, and my situation with my former family had finally lifted, leaving behind a lightness I hadn't felt in either of my lives.I shifted slightly under the covers, a small, involuntary smile stretching across my lips as memories of the previous night flooded back into my mind.It had been... passionate. Adventurous. Beautiful.After we returned home from the High Court, the heavy walls between Elias and me had crumbled entirely. All the lingering doubts, the foolish misunderstandings, and the painful silence from

    Thea stood near the tall wooden doors of Courtroom 3. She wore a sharp, tailored navy blue suit, her l hair neatly pulled back into a smooth low bun. Her hands rested calmly over the strap of her leather handbag. Beside her, Lawyer Vincent adjusted his wire rimmed glasses and flipped through a thick paper folder, double checking every document one last time."The judge is ready for us, Thea," Lawyer Vincent said softly, looking up with a confident nod. "The evidence we submitted early this morning is absolute. There is no argument Arthur's defense team can make.""Thank you, Lawyer Vincent," Thea replied, her voice smooth and grounded. "Let us finish this."Before they could turn toward the heavy oak doors, the rhythmic sound of firm, heavy footsteps echoed down the hall.Thea turned her head.Walking toward them down the quiet corridor was Elias. He wore a dark charcoal suit that fitted his broad shoulders perfectly, his necktie straight, his hair neatly styled back. There was no tra

  • Reborn to Ruin Her Husband    CH 185

    The harsh morning sunlight streamed through the tall floor-to-ceiling windows of the Vane estate, casting long, sharp shadows across the polished marble floor.Upstairs in his private study, Elias Vane sat on the edge of the leather sofa. He held a glass of ice water in one hand, his fingers pressed tightly against his temples as a dull, throbbing headache pounded behind his eyes.His suit jacket was draped over the back of a chair, his dark hair messy, and his white shirt unbuttoned at the collar. His memory of the late hours was fogged by the heavy Scottish whiskey he had consumed at the lounge with Liam, but the quiet, heavy tension hanging over the house was impossible to ignore.A quiet knock sounded at the open study door.Thomas, the head security guard, stepped cautiously into the room. His face was pale, his hands clasped tightly behind his back, looking deeply uncomfortable."Mr. Vane," Thomas spoke in a low, hesitant tone. "I brought the hot tea you requested, sir."Elias t

    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 In my first life, that voice would have made me jump. My father had a way of making me feel like I was five years old and failing a test.
