Reborn to Ruin Her Husband CH 168
The next morning, the Vane mansion was completely quiet. The sun was just rising over the trees in the garden, casting long, soft shadows across the stone driveway.Upstairs in the master bedroom, Thea was placing a few folded clothes into a small leather suitcase resting on the bed. She didn't pack much, just a few simple sweaters, trousers, and a coat.She zipped the suitcase shut, set it down by the door, and pulled her mobile phone from her coat pocket.She looked at the screen for a moment, found Darius’s private number, and pressed the call button.The line rang twice before a deep, familiar voice answered. "Thea.""Darius," Thea said softly, stepping closer to the window. "I got the envelope last night."There was a short pause on the line. Darius’s voice came back calm and steady. "I assumed it arrived. Have you read through it?""Yes," she said, looking down at the quiet garden below. "Every page. I just wanted to call and say thank you. You didn't have to send it to me, but

Forty minutes later, the silver sedan pulled up to the front steps of the Vane estate.The evening sky had turned a deep shade of dark blue, and a cool evening breeze blew through the manicured gardens surrounding the house. The mansion was quiet, its tall windows casting warm yellow light onto the gravel driveway. Elias stepped out of the car, carrying his briefcase in his right hand. He walked up the stone steps, his heavy footsteps echoing in the quiet night air. The butler opened the door immediately, bowing respectfully as Elias stepped into the grand marble hallway. "Welcome home, Mr. Vane," the butler said quietly, taking Elias’s coat. "Is Thea upstairs?" Elias asked, pausing in the foyer. "Mrs. Vane is in the main library, sir," the butler replied. "A personal courier arrived about fifteen minutes ago with a delivery for her." Elias froze slightly, his eyes narrowing. "A courier?" "Yes, sir," the butler explained smoothly. "It was a sealed white package delivered direct

The interior of the black town car was completely quiet as it moved down the avenue. Outside, the city lights flickered against the tinted windows, but Darius was no longer paying attention to the passing streets.His thumb slid under the thick paper flap of the white envelope, tearing it open with a single, steady pull. Inside sat a heavy stack of documents stamped with the official seal of a private investigative firm. On top was a summary sheet printed in clear, dark font.Darius pulled the papers out and began to read.As his eyes moved down the first page, the air in his chest grew tight. The file contained original birth logs, archived hospital receipts from a small clinic in the northern province, and handwritten affidavits from a retired senior nurse.Twenty-six years ago, Antoinette Sterling, the eldest child of the Sterling family and the rightful head of their lineage had not died childless in a tragic highway crash as the public had been told. She had given birth to a heal

The black town car moved smoothly through the quiet morning streets away from the private hospital. Inside the vehicle, Darius sat in the comfortable leather backseat, staring out the window at the passing city buildings. He wore a simple charcoal coat over his shirt, his posture relaxed despite the faint trace of tiredness still lingering in his dark eyes.His personal assistant, Artie, sat in the front passenger seat with a sleek silver laptop resting open on his knees."Mr. Manchester," Artie said softly, turning his head slightly toward the back. "The discharge papers have all been processed by the hospital legal team. I've already arranged for your private medical team to handle any follow-up blood work if needed once we arrive back at your main residence."Darius gave a quiet, low nod. "Good.""Regarding the local operations," Artie continued, checking his screen. "Manchester Shipping had three pending regional logistics deals drafted for this quarter. The local representatives

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

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. The headline scrolling across the bottom made the bitter caffeine taste like nectar: "STERLING ARCHITECTURE DROPS 40% AS MAJOR INVESTORS PULL

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
