Reborn to Ruin Her Husband CH 216
Thea stood frozen near the top of the grand staircase, her hand clutching her wool coat tightly against her chest.Down the hallway, the voices of the two junior maids had faded, but their words echoed loudly inside her head.She turned around, intending to hurry downstairs, but as she reached the main foyer, Martha stepped directly into her path. The head housekeeper held a silver tray with a cup of warm tea, her face set in a careful, rigid expression."Good morning, Mrs. Vane," Martha said, her tone smooth but firm as she blocked the way to the front doors. "You shouldn't be out of bed yet. Mr. Vane left strict instructions before he went into the office this morning. You are to stay upstairs and rest until he returns."Thea stopped, her eyes locking onto Martha's tight posture. "Martha, move aside. I need to go out.""I am sorry, madam, but I cannot allow that," Martha replied, stepping slightly to the left to block her again. "Mr. Vane was very clear. The car keys are locked away

The air inside the main executive conference room was suffocating.Elias sat at the head of the massive table, his broad hands resting flat against the wood. His eyes were cold, scanning the faces of the senior elder board members sitting around him. Beside him, his father, George Vane, sat upright with a dark, thunderous expression.Across the table stood Director Williams, Director Anthony, and Doctor Jocelyn.Williams stepped forward, tossing a thick leather folder into the middle of the table. "Gentlemen of the board, we are here today to address a severe crisis that threatens the future of both Vane Group and Sterling Group."The white-haired elder, Henderson, adjusted his glasses. "Get straight to the point, Williams. What is inside that folder?"Williams opened the file, laying out dozens of yellowed medical pages stamped with official seals."These are certified psychiatric records from Doctor Jocelyn's private clinic," Williams declared, his voice ringing loudly. "They detail

Elias stood motionless beside the mattress.His hand, which had been reaching down to gently touch her shoulder, froze in mid-air. His dark eyes locked onto Thea’s calm, serious face. For a long, heavy moment, the only sound in the room was the faint, hum of the bedside lamp."What did you say?" Elias asked softly, his voice dropping into a careful tone.Thea didn't blink. She sat up a little straighter, keeping her hands resting over her stomach. "You heard me, Elias. Director Williams was suspended from Vane Group, yet he is meeting in secret with a director from my company. They are gathering files on taking a hold of my shares, aren’t they?."Elias took a slow breath, stepping closer to the edge of the bed and sitting down on the mattress. He tried to reach for her hand, but Thea kept her arms folded quietly across her lap, out of his reach."Where did you hear this, Thea?" Elias asked quietly.“Does it matter where I heard it?" Thea retorted, her dark eyes searching his face. "Is

Flora burst through the glass doors of her firm's executive floor, clutching the dark leather folder against her chest. Her heart was still pounding against her ribs, but her eyes shone with absolute disbelief.She rushed straight into the open-plan office, where three senior analysts were staring at their computer screens. Before she could even reach her cubicle, a sharp, loud voice cut across the room."Flora!"Mr. Davis, her direct supervisor, stepped out of his glass corner office. He was a middle-aged man with receding gray hair, wearing an unbuttoned vest and a tight tie. His face was dark with irritation.“Where on earth have you been?" Mr. Davis snapped, folding his arms across his chest as the rest of the team looked up from their desks. "You were supposed to pitch to Manchester Logistics an hour ago! The head of our department has been calling my desk every five minutes wanting to know why we missed the slot!""I didn't miss it, Mr. Davis!" Flora gasped out, holding up the t

Darius walked down the stone path, his long strides slowing to a complete stop the moment his eyes landed on Thea.The cold, distant expression he usually wore in business settings vanished entirely. His dark eyes widened, swept over her pale face, and dropped to her rounded stomach before snapping back to her eyes. Worry etched deeply into his features as he closed the distance between them, completely ignoring the young woman standing nervously beside her."Thea?" Darius asked, his deep voice filled with instant concern. He stopped just two feet away, his hands twitching slightly as if he wanted to reach out and steady her, though he kept them firmly at his sides. "What are you doing here? Where is Elias? Where is your security?"Flora stood frozen beside the stone bench, her jaw slightly open. She looked between the notoriously terrifying heir of Manchester Logistics and the pregnant woman in the simple cardigan. Her eyes darted back and forth in utter disbelief as she listened to

THEA The morning sunlight crept across the white carpet of the guest suite, but I was already awake. My lower back ached with a dull, heavy ache, and my feet felt swollen inside my slippers.When I pushed the bedroom door open and walked down the grand staircase, I expected to see Martha standing by the kitchen counter, quietly organizing the morning routine. Instead, I stopped dead on the bottom step.Beatrice Vane was standing in the kitchen.She wore a tailored cashmere cardigan, her silver hair neatly pinned, and she was holding a steaming kettle of water over a china teapot. For a second, my mind stalled. This was the same woman who had looked at me with open disdain just weeks ago, treating me like an unwanted intruder in her family. Now, she was carefully pouring hot water into a cup, dropping a single slice of fresh lemon inside.She turned around, caught my eye, and cleared her throat softly."You're up early," Beatrice said, her voice lacking its usual sharp edge. She push

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

THEA’s POV Elias was still leaning over me, his face so close I could see the dark blue flecks in his eyes.I looked at him, and for a split second, I didn't see my husband. I saw a jailer. 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. The headline scrolling across the bottom made the bitter caffeine taste like nectar: "STERLING ARCHITECTURE DROPS 40% AS MAJOR INVESTORS PULL
Reborn to Ruin Her Husband His House, His Rules
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. I used to spend my allowance buying him expensive watches just to get a "thank you" that never came. "Thea!" My mother’s voice joined in, high-pit
