Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 168: The Traces Left Behind
Those words made Dante lower his head for a moment.He let out a soft laugh as though nothing had happened.But Aurora noticed his fingers tighten slightly around the edge of the drawing he was holding.Hazel didn't notice a thing.The little girl simply stood there, smiling proudly.Waiting for a comment about her artwork."It's beautiful," Dante said softly."Really?""Really."Hazel looked satisfied.Then she pushed the drawing closer to him."If you like it, you can keep it."Dante looked up."What?""It's a gift for you, Uncle."Aurora immediately turned toward her daughter.Hazel nodded firmly."Because you always give me gifts too."Dante stared at the drawing for a long moment.Perhaps no gift he had ever received felt more valuable than that sheet of paper covered in colorful crayon marks."Thank you.""You're welcome." Hazel grinned.Dante folded the drawing with extraordinary care.As though he were afraid it might be damaged.As though it were something irreplaceable.Seve
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 167: Not Much Time Left
Dante's gaze remained fixed on Hazel.The little girl was sitting on the porch.Every now and then, she would pick up a colorful crayon before returning to her drawing with complete concentration.Completely unaware that the lives of the adults around her were changing.Dante smiled faintly."Kind of ironic."Aurora frowned."What do you mean?"Dante slipped both hands into his pockets."I spent years chasing something I could never have."He looked up at the sky for a moment."And when I finally learned how to let it go..."His sentence trailed off.Aurora began to feel uneasy.Because the calmer Dante sounded, the worse her feeling became."What happened?" she asked again.Dante let out a long breath."Cancer."Aurora froze.Darius didn't move.Even the wind seemed to stop for a moment.Dante laughed softly.A hollow, humorless laugh."I know. That's pretty much the same reaction I had."Aurora continued staring at him."Cancer?"Dante nodded."Advanced stage."The words landed much
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 166: One Last Time
Because I like Uncle Dante.That simple sentence left Dante speechless.Not because he didn't know how to answer.But because, for several seconds, he genuinely couldn't.Hazel was still sitting on the living room floor.Her small hands were stained with colorful paint.And that innocent smile remained on her face.There was no burden.No past.No mistakes.Only the sincerity of a child.Dante lowered his gaze for a moment.Then let out a soft laugh."I guess I'm pretty lucky."Hazel immediately nodded."Yes."Aurora watched him.And for a moment, she felt that something was different.Dante seemed calmer.More at peace.As though he hadn't come today to ask for anything.Not to fight for something.Not to change anything.Just to see.Just to make sure.Dante walked over and crouched in front of Hazel."I like Hazel too."The little girl's face instantly brightened."Really?""Really."Hazel looked completely satisfied with that answer.Then she returned to her paints and drawing pap
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 165: She Doesn't Need Two Fathers
Aurora was still holding the drawing Hazel's teacher had given her as their car pulled into the driveway.Her mind hadn't fully settled.Because that simple drawing had proven one thing.Dante had already become part of Hazel's world.Even if only through gifts.Even if only through a name.Even if they had never met.As soon as the car stopped, Aurora watched Hazel jump out first.The little girl had learned to ride a bicycle without training wheels only a few weeks ago. Since then, the front yard had become her personal racetrack."I want to ride my bike first!"Aurora laughed softly."Only in the front yard.""Okay!"Hazel immediately climbed onto her pink bicycle.Aurora had just stepped out of the car when another vehicle pulled up not far from the main gate.She frowned.She didn't recognize it.The car door opened.A moment later, a man stepped out carrying a gift box.Aurora froze instantly.Dante.At the same moment, Darius, who had just gotten out of the car as well, spotted
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 164: A Difficult Answer
Hazel's question hung in the air."...why has he never come to see me?"Aurora and Darius exchanged a glance.They had always known this conversation would happen.They just never knew when.And it turned out there was no way to truly prepare for it.Hazel was still waiting.Her small eyes moved from her mother to Darius.Because in a child's world, every question was supposed to have an answer.Aurora sat back down on the edge of the bed.Then gently brushed her daughter's hair."Sometimes adults make mistakes."Hazel blinked."Mistakes like spilling milk?"Aurora almost smiled."A little bigger than that."Hazel seemed to think about it."So Dante made a mistake?"Aurora nodded softly.Darius sat down on the other side of the bed."But making a mistake doesn't always make someone a bad person."Hazel looked at him."Like when I drew on the wall?"Darius immediately pointed at her."That's a very good example.""I said sorry.""You did.""And I helped clean it.""You did."Hazel look
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 163: Who Is Dante?
Hazel's question seemed to make time slow down.Aurora looked at her daughter for several seconds.Meanwhile, Darius stood beside her, still holding the small card attached to the new bicycle."Why does that person always send me presents?"Hazel repeated her question.There was no suspicion in her voice.No fear.Just curiosity.The simple curiosity of a child who had finally begun noticing something she had always taken for granted.Aurora crouched down until she was eye level with her daughter."Hazel."The little girl immediately looked at her."Yes, Mama?"Aurora let out a quiet breath.Then glanced briefly at Darius.He gave a small nod.A reminder of the promise they had made long ago.No lies.No made-up stories.Only honesty, given when Hazel was old enough to understand it."That person sends you gifts because he cares about you."Hazel blinked."Like Daddy?"Aurora smiled faintly."Yes."Hazel seemed to think very hard about that.Then her eyes shifted toward Darius."Then
