That night, Aria sat in her room, listening to Cedric's laughter echoing from the living room as he played video games with Harold and Basia. She couldn't help but smile."Aria, what's so funny?" Kane's voice drifted from the bathroom, where he was soaking his feet.She walked to the doorway, grinning. "You're clearly picking on Cedric. Out of everyone, he's the one who loves to play the most. Harold and Basia stick to him like glue. You had Arthur buy that game console, but in the end, Cedric's the one stuck playing with them every night."Kane smirked without the slightest guilt. "Well, he's got the energy for it."Basia clung to him constantly, which he secretly adored. But the moment Harold's voice joined in, his blood boiled with jealousy. Because he couldn't see, every time the two kids whispered together, Kane's imagination supplied unwanted pictures—and his jealousy only grew worse.So, he came up with this neat trick: dump both kids on Cedric and enjoy peace of mind."You're

After Mona left, Frank stopped coming by the Wolfe estate.At first, Aria thought he'd sunk into depression. Later she learned he had thrown himself into Kane's case, taking on a string of neurosurgeries and practically living at the hospital.Everyone assumed Frank was trying to finish Kane's brain surgery as quickly as possible so he could go after Mona. Knowing that, no one dared disturb him.Still, Aria felt guilty. She often asked Fanny to prepare hearty soups or stews and had the driver deliver them to Frank at the hospital.***One afternoon, Aria was in unusually good spirits and sat in the living room with Harold and Basia. The two children were racing each other on the console while she cheered them on from the couch. Kane stayed close by her side, smiling quietly the whole time.The doorbell rang, and the maid went to answer it. A familiar voice carried in from the entryway—Marvin.He and Kane had previously agreed to take down JE Group together, but issues at his company's

Cedric let out a quiet sigh. "I get that you want to do something for Aria, but Pete's far too cautious. We've tried plenty of ways to draw him out, and he hasn't taken the bait once."Pete's provocations against Kane—and the fact he'd gone so far as to lay a hand on Aria—were intolerable. Not just to Kane, but to Cedric as well.He and Kane had already discussed it. Both agreed that unless Pete was eliminated, he'd always be a lingering threat.But when it came to how to get rid of him, their opinions split.Kane believed the cops had their eyes on Pete. If they made any move that looked suspicious, they risked drawing unwanted attention.Cedric, on the other hand, thought they should strike first and cleanly. He was confident they could make Pete disappear without leaving a trace.The problem was simple: Pete wasn't falling for anything. Which meant neither of their plans could be put into action."I can approach Pete," Marvin finally said, a hint of strategy in his voice. "ACE Grou

Kane's kisses had grown more confident, more consuming, and Aria melted against him. Just when the air between them turned fevered, a knock rattled the bedroom door."Daddy! Mommy! Come out! I cut fruit for you!" Basia's sweet little voice rang from the hallway.Lately, Basia had become obsessed with helping in the kitchen. Aria had even bought her a set of child-safe knives, which Basia proudly used whenever she got the chance.The moment Aria heard her daughter, she snapped back to reality and pushed lightly against Kane's chest. No matter what he wanted, Kane could never resist his wife and daughter when they called for him.Aria opened the door, and Basia immediately threw her arms around her mother's legs. Her tiny hand reached up to pat Aria's belly."Mommy, when baby brother comes, I'll cut fruit for him too, okay?" Basia beamed up at her with an innocent grin.Aria laughed softly, ruffling her hair. "Alright, but newborns don't have teeth, so he won't be able to eat fruit yet.

"No. This is far too dangerous." Aria bit down on her lip and turned to Cedric. "Call Marvin right now. Tell him to drop this insane plan."Afraid Kane might take it the wrong way, she quickly gripped his hand."I've already asked Leonard to look into cornea donors. He's been reaching out to contacts. We just need to wait. Pete's corneas aren't our only option!"Kane squeezed her hand back and nodded."Cedric, call him. I'm grateful Marvin is willing to go this far for us, but I don't need Pete's corneas."Cedric gave a helpless smile. Kane had finally put the pieces together—he knew Marvin was doing all this for Aria's sake. Of course he'd refuse.Marvin and Cedric had expected as much."It's already in motion. Too late to pull him back now." Cedric shrugged, but when Aria's glare sharpened, he added, "The mountain's signal is terrible. Marvin turned off his phone ahead of time, just in case."What Cedric didn't say was that he had already placed men around the lodge, shadowing both
