Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 79: The Line That Must Be Kept
The room remained calm.But this time, not because of tension.It was something subtler—something that lingered longer.Aurora stood a few steps away from Peter. Not stiff. Not keeping her distance the way she did with others.There was something different in the way she looked at him.Warmer.Closer.“You haven’t changed, Uncle,” Aurora said softly.Peter gave a faint smile. “Neither have you.”Aurora stepped closer, without hesitation.“It’s been a long time,” she continued. “I didn’t expect you to come in person.”“Neither did I expect to find you at this point,” Peter replied.Aurora exhaled slowly.“A lot has changed,” she said.Peter looked at her. “Including Dante?”Aurora didn’t avoid it. “We’re divorced.”The words came out without excessive emotion. No long explanation.Just a fact.Peter gave a small nod. Not surprised. Not asking further.“Good,” he said briefly.Aurora frowned slightly. “You don’t want to know why?”Peter smiled faintly. “I don’t need all the details to k
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 78: The Unseen Hand
The air in the room shifted.Not because of the cold—But because of his presence.Lily remained seated on the floor. Her body stiff. Her gaze no longer defiant like before. For the first time, she stopped pretending to be strong.“You…” Lily’s voice faltered. “Peter Walker…”The man didn’t respond. His steps were calm. Measured. As if the place already belonged to him.That name was not an ordinary one.Peter Walker.A longtime friend of the late Mr. Blackwood. A man who rarely appeared—yet was always behind things that were never explained.Lily swallowed.“So you’re the one behind all of this?” she asked, trying to steady herself.Peter stopped in front of her. His gaze flat.“You know too much.”The same words as before.But now—More real.Lily let out a small, forced laugh. “If that’s your reason, you’re too late. Plenty of people know more than I do.”Peter didn’t react. He simply raised his hand slightly.A signal.Two men behind him moved immediately.Lily didn’t have time to
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 77: The Trace That Remains
Aurora stepped out of the prison building. The late afternoon air greeted her—warmer, yet not enough to calm her thoughts.The car was already waiting. Her assistant stood by the door.“Ma’am, straight to the lab?” he asked.Aurora gave a short nod. “Now.”There was no time to delay.The car moved. Throughout the ride, Aurora didn’t speak. Her gaze remained fixed ahead. But her mind returned to one thing she could no longer ignore.The previous test.The test that had declared Hazel was not Dante’s child.Aurora closed her eyes for a moment.“I never truly verified it…” she whispered softly.She opened her eyes again. Her gaze sharpened.Elsewhere—Darius stood on the balcony of his apartment, thinking about the DNA test result.Not a match.He wasn’t surprised.But he wasn’t truly prepared either.Darius let out a quiet breath. His gaze dropped to the streets below.The city lights were beginning to glow, but his mind wasn’t there.Hazel.Aurora.And the distance that had suddenly fo

The words fell without hesitation.Dante narrowed his eyes.“Who are you talking about?” he asked quietly.“You and Lily,” Aurora replied. “I don’t want to live with the same kind of lies.”Dante let out a short laugh.There was no humor in it.“And you think this test will settle everything?”“At least for me,” Aurora answered.Dante studied her for a few seconds, then leaned forward slightly.“Fine. But I have a condition,” he said at last.Aurora wasn’t surprised. “Of course. Say what you want,” she replied coldly.Dante didn’t look away.“If the result shows Hazel is my child…” he said slowly.Aurora already knew where this was going.“…you come back to me.”Aurora looked at him without blinking.A few seconds passed.Then—She let out a soft laugh.Not because it was funny.“No,” Aurora said immediately.No hesitation.No consideration.Dante frowned. “You won’t even think about it?”“There’s nothing to think about,” Aurora replied. “I’m not going back under your control.”Dante’
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 75: A Shifted Line
The room fell silent again after Aurora’s words.There was no raised voice. No burst of emotion. And that was what made it feel firmer.Darius stood a few steps in front of her. His expression didn’t change. He didn’t argue. He didn’t agree either.“I won’t accept that,” Darius said at last.“This isn’t something you need to accept.”Darius stepped closer, making it clear he wasn’t backing down.“Hazel isn’t just about a test result,” he continued. “And you know that.”Aurora narrowed her eyes. “Don’t turn this into something else.”“I’m not turning it into anything,” Darius replied. “I just won’t stop because of one result.”Aurora held his gaze. “This isn’t about whether you stop or not.”“It’s about boundaries,” she added quietly. “And I’m the one who decides those boundaries.”Darius didn’t respond immediately.He glanced briefly at Hazel, who was asleep, then looked back at Aurora.“I don’t care what the result says,” he said finally. “I’ll still protect Hazel.”Aurora frowned. “
Revenge Born of Betrayal Chapter 74: A Trust That Collapses
The question landed without hesitation.Darius didn’t answer immediately. He simply looked at Aurora for a few seconds, then let out a quiet breath.“I never set you up,” he said at last.Aurora let out a short laugh—cold and sharp.“But everything points to that,” she replied. “You showed up. You knew too much. You pushed me to believe… and now this is the result.”Darius shook his head slightly. “I didn’t push you. You made that choice yourself.”Aurora narrowed her eyes. “Because I trusted you.”The words hung in the air.Darius stepped a little closer, still keeping a respectful distance. “And I never intended to break that trust.”“Then what is this?” Aurora demanded. “All just a coincidence?”Darius met her gaze. “I believed Hazel was my child too. Not because of some plan… but because everything that happened back then made sense.”Aurora said nothing.Darius continued, his voice lower, “And because I wanted it to be true.”That made Aurora pause—for a moment.But only for a mo
