The Tyrant's Bride Vow 90. Small Cracks
The early spring breeze slipped through the windows of Spark Winery Group—still carrying the chill of winter. Enola stood in front of the glass window of her office, looking out at the vineyard that had not yet fully recovered from the frost. Morning dew still clung to the fragile twigs. Part of her felt fragile, too.Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Enola, Damian was already in motion.On the top floor of the Cassel Group, the sound of Damian's leather shoes echoed down the hallway. He entered his office, closing the door quietly—a dangerous kind of quiet.His laptop was already open. Inside, files about Viona Leonard Moreau were neatly arranged. Damian narrowed his eyes."Leonard is not a fool," he muttered. "His daughter can't be just a common nuisance."He pressed a button to play the CCTV footage from the hotel where he had stayed during his last business trip. The footage showed Viona trying to approach him several times, invading Damian's personal space, trying to stand too close... H
The Tyrant's Bride Vow 89. New Shadows in Spring
The spring sun slowly melted away the cold, but for Enola Spark, the world had not yet fully returned to warmth. In the Enolian family’s backyard, Enola was enjoying the view of the pool. That afternoon felt calmer after Enola returned home. Although she was still distracted by her thoughts about Viona.There was something unusual about the way that woman behaved with Damian. Enola knew it. There were many women around Damian, but she could still distinguish between a professional attitude and one that covered up specific intentions.Damian went to the hospital to visit Alexander and discuss the treatment and care plan for his father-in-law. Enola heard the roar of Damian’s car engine as he arrived. Enola got up to greet him in front of the house.However, the atmosphere changed when they saw a woman with honey-blonde hair standing in front of Damian’s car.Viona Leonard Moreau.Her face was expressionless, her eyes cold and sparkling.Her eyes fell on Enola, then stared at Enola, w
The Tyrant's Bride Vow 88. The Silent Ruins Among Us
Damian’s situation.At the hotel.Spring was slowly stirring outside the window of the hotel where Damian was staying. Rain had been falling since dawn, wetting the glass balcony that opened onto the city. Damian had just finished a meeting with Moreau-Europe investors when he returned to his office.His cell phone was not on his desk.Damian’s eyebrows tightened. “Where’s my phone?”Viona stood up too quickly—too nervously. “I just... took it because it kept vibrating. I was afraid it would disturb your meeting.”Damian noticed her fingers were still trembling. He took a step forward, and Viona unconsciously took half a step back.“Why are the call logs missing?” Damian’s voice dropped an octave, cold and icy.“I—I accidentally touched—“Before Viona could finish her lie, Damian’s phone vibrated again.A message appeared on the screen.LUNA: Mr. Cassel... Enola collapsed. There’s a lot of blood. I’ve taken her to the hospital. Please come back immediately.Damian’s expression chang
The Tyrant's Bride Vow 87. The First Crack in Spring
The spring breeze slowly entered through the crack in Damian’s office window, carrying the scent of cherry blossoms that had just bloomed in the Cassel Manor courtyard. However, among the beautiful colors of spring, one thing felt strange—a coldness that did not come from the weather. That coldness came from Enola.They hadn’t spoken for three days.Damian stood staring at his phone screen. He had sent Enola three messages since morning, all of which were unread. He closed his eyes for a moment, feeling something pierce his chest—a feeling he rarely experienced in his life.Guilt.Worry.Fear of losing Enola in her own emotional world.Why was she pulling away like this? Why did she seem... afraid?Damian exhaled deeply, massaging the bridge of his nose.“The meeting is about to start,” said William, his secretary, who had just entered his office. “You look... messed up.”Damian glanced at him. “Enola isn’t answering me.”William raised his eyebrows. “Are you two fighting?”Damian w
The Tyrant's Bride Vow 86. The Broken Spring
Spring arrived with temperatures that were still bitterly cold. Still, the branches in the Moreau family mansion’s yard were beginning to show their first green buds. The morning air was filled with the damp scent of thawing soil, and the wind carried magnolia scent from the east side of the yard.Cassel’s private jet landed at the Moreau private airport, and the news of Damian Cassel’s arrival—heir to the Cassel Group and eldest grandson of the Moreau family—shook the entire mansion.Evelyn waited in the large sitting room of the Moreau mansion, her face pale, her shoulders wrapped in a thin blanket. As soon as Damian and Enola entered, Evelyn stood up, surprised and relieved.“You guys... why didn’t you let me know first?” Evelyn’s voice trembled, but her eyes sparkled.Damian approached, bent down, and kissed his grandmother’s forehead.“You’re sick, Grandma. How could I stay there or at the Cassel mansion while my family was in danger?”Enola put her hand on Evelyn’s shoulder.“
The Tyrant's Bride Vow 85. Cracks in Peace
The guests screamed. The sound of chairs falling echoed. Lights shook the ceiling. Damian immediately grabbed Enola and covered her entire body with his own.“Enola, don’t look at anything,” he whispered coldly and tensely.Bullets whizzed past and hit the marble pillars a few meters away from them. Stone fragments were scattered like glass sand.Enola was silent, her body shaking violently—and then...The nightmare returned.The flash of the accident. The sound of brakes. Blood. The crash. The sound of breaking glass. An arm over her body. Darkness.Enola’s breathing was ragged.“Da... Damian—“She tried to take a breath, but her chest tightened instead, as if the world had shrunk in a matter of seconds.A panic attack. PTSD. Brutally triggered.Damian felt the change immediately.“Hey, baby, look at me. Focus on my voice.”But Enola heard nothing. Her vision blurred, and the voices of the people around her turned into distant echoes she couldn’t understand. She shivered, her hands r
