Ivan let out a sharp laugh. "No wonder you're the rightful CEO of ATTA Group. Straight to the point with just one question."That he could still make jokes at a time like this made both Kane and Aria's faces twist with disgust.Ignoring their expressions, Ivan fixed Aria with a hard glare. "I came to let you know—I'm not dropping my brother's case. I'll keep digging until I get answers."Aria frowned slightly. "Didn't Gabriella kill Evan?""I don't believe that for a second." Ivan turned his gaze away, suppressing the fury burning in his chest. His voice was cold. "Her death was suspicious as hell. Middle of the night, she supposedly sneaks into an abandoned storage room and hangs herself, leaving behind some half-baked suicide note? Anyone with half a brain would find that strange."Feeling the hostility Ivan aimed at Aria, Kane pulled her protectively against his chest."Ivan, whether you believe it or not, Gabriella showed up at the gala even though she wasn't supposed to be there.

All three men nodded, though they still couldn't understand why Aria was so certain Chad's death had little to do with Gabriella."Don't you think the crime scene was too clean?" Aria asked quietly.She had pored over the files for several nights before noticing the odd detail."Too clean?" Eden gave a short laugh. "You've got it backward, don't you?""The place where Chad's body was found was a shipping container," Cedric recalled, stroking his jaw. "In the summer heat, his body had already decomposed by the time someone stumbled across it."Arthur suddenly sat upright, eyes flashing. "Wait—that's it! The scene had no fingerprints, no signs of struggle—nothing at all!"Aria shot him a look of approval. But then Arthur frowned again. "So someone cleaned it up afterward. But what does that have to do with what you're saying?"Pressing her temple, Aria sighed. "Because Caleb's crime scene was scrubbed just as spotless."Her words silenced the room.Cedric was the first to respond. "True

Although Aria told Kane not to worry, he still reported the matter to Cedric.Unsurprisingly, Cedric shared Kane's concerns. Both believed someone was deliberately tailing Aria, even switching vehicles a few times to avoid suspicion.The two men made special arrangements. Before Aria left the house, they reminded her over and over—if she felt even the slightest hint of being followed, she had to call Cedric immediately.Aria understood their worry, so she didn't resist and agreed right away.With Cedric helping out, Aria had only been going to the office every other day.That morning, she received a call from Fanny telling her that Natalie had woken up. Though still weak, the doctor said she could go home after a period of rest.Overjoyed by the news, Aria left the house. On the way toward ATTA, a prickling sense of unease crawled over her."Cedric, I've got that feeling again—like someone's watching me." Aria quickly called him, holding a compact mirror in her hand. In its reflection

The stand-in Cedric arranged looked so much like Aria that no one suspected a thing.To avoid any chance of exposure, they told the public that Aria had suffered severe burns over most of her body.That way, with the "patient" wrapped tightly in bandages and kept behind the glass wall of the ICU, no one could tell it wasn't Aria lying in that hospital bed.Basia and Harold had both been ordered to keep their mouths shut. They weren't allowed to breathe a word of the truth.While the outside world reeled from the news of her "injuries," Aria quietly stayed home, resting and focusing on her pregnancy while keeping Kane company.As her belly grew, the symptoms of late pregnancy kicked in—leg cramps, sleepless nights."You say I'm the one taking care of you," Kane teased one evening as he massaged her aching calf, "but I feel like it's always you looking after me."Aria leaned back with a contented sigh, her eyes half-closed in comfort. The more she looked at Kane, the more she felt she'd

After dinner, Cedric and Kane went into the study. Aria had been about to follow, but her phone rang—Frank was calling."You're serious?" Aria's voice trembled with excitement as she listened."Yes. I can remove the tumor in Kane's brain." Frank's tone was steady, professional. Though he rarely operated these days, his reputation as a top neurosurgeon was untarnished.Ever since his return, Frank had arranged every scan and test for Kane's condition. Today the results were in, and after consulting with several specialists, he finally felt confident enough to call Aria."When can you schedule the surgery?" Aria pressed, her heart racing.The tumor in Kane's brain was still uncertain—benign or malignant, no one could say yet. But the sooner it was removed, the sooner she could breathe easier. If it turned out malignant, at least they could start treatment without delay."Aria, slow down," Frank said with a quiet chuckle, trying to calm her. "Right now, I'm not in any condition to operat
