“Like I said before, maybe they missed them.” Safia shrugged lightly. “But don’t worry. I already locked all the files I gave you.” She pointed subtly toward Auri’s phone. “Don’t forget the password I sent you through text earlier.”

Then she glanced at her watch and stood up quickly.

“I need to get back to the office before lunch break ends.” Her expression turned serious again. “Promise me something, Auri.&

    “Son of a bitch! Manipulative bastard!” Lucas shouted, his hand trembling violently with the urge to smash the phone against the wall. “He’s using Junior to psychologically torture you tonight! He’s deliberately flaunting his wealth just to make you feel inadequate as a mother! He’s exploiting the state of our family right now, when he’s the one who destroyed it in the first place!”“I know. He wants to show that Junior would be happier with the life and facilities he can provide,” Auri replied.Her tone didn’t waver in the slightest, as though she’d already predicted this cheap little stunt hours ago.“And this message? He’s calling you selfish?” Lucas stared at the phone in disbelief before throwing it onto the desk. “Ethan is seriously insane.” He pushed himself out of the chair again and began pacing across the room in long, furious strides. “Does he r

    “So it’s true? Ethan took Junior to his house this morning? Without you or me there with him?”Lucas’s voice thundered through Nocture the second he walked in. He hadn’t even taken off his jacket yet. His eyes locked onto Auri, who sat behind her desk, while the anger inside him boiled harder with every second since hearing the news about Junior being picked up.Auri looked up at him, her expression calm. “Yeah. Ethan picked him up at nine this morning. And he specifically didn’t want me there.”“And you let him?!” Lucas slammed his palm against the wooden desk, the loud bang echoing through the room. “You just did whatever he wanted? The hearing is tomorrow, Aurel! He doesn’t have full custody yet! Why didn’t you call me? I could’ve come and stopped him!”“For what, Lucas?” Auri leaned back against her chair, her voice flat but cold. &ldquo

    “You need to look exhausted and thinner, Mom.”As he adjusted the cream-colored knitted scarf around his mother’s neck, Ethan smiled faintly. It was the kind of smile that concealed a thousand calculations beneath its gentleness.“Let Gia’s parents see how this stress has been destroying your health because you’re worried about Junior’s future…” His eyes softened deliberately. “Your grandson.”Valencia let out a long breath while fixing her posture in the chair.“Ethan, I’m doing all of this for Junior.” Her voice carried unwavering determination. “I was willing to starve myself for days just to look thinner and weaker.” She touched her own hollowed cheek lightly. “If all of this helps Junior stay with us, then I don’t mind suffering a little.”Ethan slowly knelt in front of his mother, looking up at the woman whose obsession with bloo

    Her voice cracked again.“And meanwhile, you stand here…” She laughed bitterly through tears. “The very first thing you do after stepping foot back into this house is accuse me of making dirty deals?!”Lucas froze briefly after hearing Auri’s hysterical outburst.But the inferiority and humiliation that had already poisoned his mind refused to let logic in.Instead of apologizing, instead of admitting he had crossed a line, Lucas turned his face away stubbornly.His shattered pride wouldn’t allow him to surrender.“Then explain this miracle to me, Aurel!” Lucas shot back harshly, his voice no quieter than hers now. “The people attacking me would never release me unless they gained something huge in return!”His breathing grew rougher.“They let me out on purpose just to humiliate me!” he shouted bitterly. “To show me that I’m useless!&rdq

    “You didn’t have to come, Aurel. Seeing me like this… does it make you happy?”Lucas’s voice came out rough and hollow, breaking the silence inside the luxurious house that had once felt so warm and alive.The man who usually carried himself with commanding confidence, immaculate suits, and sharp authoritative eyes was now curled into the corner of the sofa like a shadow of himself. His hair was disheveled, dark circles hung heavily beneath his eyes, and the white shirt clinging to his body was wrinkled beyond recognition.Auri looked at the man who had once been her safe place, and a deep ache pulsed painfully inside her chest.But instead of pity pushing her to run into his arms, it was exhaustion that settled first upon her shoulders.Heavy.Endless.“I came because I was worried about you, Lucas,” Auri said softly as she closed the door behind her and slowly stepped into the room that now

    Auri’s chest tightened.“I lost my world, Auri.” Ethan’s fingers tightened gently around hers. “And I promised myself I would do anything to fix my mistakes.” His eyes glistened faintly. “I want to become the husband who stands in front of you and protects you no matter what.”“But not by destroying Lucas, Ethan!” Auri pulled her face away, struggling to breathe beneath the overwhelming tenderness Ethan wrapped around his cruelty. “You deliberately framed him so you’d have a reason to throw him in prison!”Yet Ethan didn’t get angry.Instead, he smiled softly again.A loving smile.Beautiful enough to make his sins seem almost invisible.Carefully, he guided Auri toward the sofa, treating her with such gentleness it felt almost surreal.“I won’t stop you from being angry at me,” Ethan said calmly after she sat down. His voice r
