All Chapters of Reborn to Ruin Her Husband : Chapter 211 - Chapter 219

Darius walked down the stone path, his long strides slowing to a complete stop the moment his eyes landed on Thea.The cold, distant expression he usually wore in business settings vanished entirely. His dark eyes widened, swept over her pale face, and dropped to her rounded stomach before snapping back to her eyes. Worry etched deeply into his features as he closed the distance between them, completely ignoring the young woman standing nervously beside her."Thea?" Darius asked, his deep voice filled with instant concern. He stopped just two feet away, his hands twitching slightly as if he wanted to reach out and steady her, though he kept them firmly at his sides. "What are you doing here? Where is Elias? Where is your security?"Flora stood frozen beside the stone bench, her jaw slightly open. She looked between the notoriously terrifying heir of Manchester Logistics and the pregnant woman in the simple cardigan. Her eyes darted back and forth in utter disbelief as she listened to

Elias stood motionless beside the mattress.His hand, which had been reaching down to gently touch her shoulder, froze in mid-air. His dark eyes locked onto Thea’s calm, serious face. For a long, heavy moment, the only sound in the room was the faint, hum of the bedside lamp."What did you say?" Elias asked softly, his voice dropping into a careful tone.Thea didn't blink. She sat up a little straighter, keeping her hands resting over her stomach. "You heard me, Elias. Director Williams was suspended from Vane Group, yet he is meeting in secret with a director from my company. They are gathering files on taking a hold of my shares, aren’t they?."Elias took a slow breath, stepping closer to the edge of the bed and sitting down on the mattress. He tried to reach for her hand, but Thea kept her arms folded quietly across her lap, out of his reach."Where did you hear this, Thea?" Elias asked quietly.“Does it matter where I heard it?" Thea retorted, her dark eyes searching his face. "Is

Thea stood frozen near the top of the grand staircase, her hand clutching her wool coat tightly against her chest.Down the hallway, the voices of the two junior maids had faded, but their words echoed loudly inside her head.She turned around, intending to hurry downstairs, but as she reached the main foyer, Martha stepped directly into her path. The head housekeeper held a silver tray with a cup of warm tea, her face set in a careful, rigid expression."Good morning, Mrs. Vane," Martha said, her tone smooth but firm as she blocked the way to the front doors. "You shouldn't be out of bed yet. Mr. Vane left strict instructions before he went into the office this morning. You are to stay upstairs and rest until he returns."Thea stopped, her eyes locking onto Martha's tight posture. "Martha, move aside. I need to go out.""I am sorry, madam, but I cannot allow that," Martha replied, stepping slightly to the left to block her again. "Mr. Vane was very clear. The car keys are locked away

The private interrogation room inside the state penitentiary was cold and bare.Elias sat across from the metal table, his dark suit spotless, his hands resting flat on the surface. His eyes were locked on the door, his face tight with suppressed anger and exhaustion. Every minute he spent here was another minute away from Thea’s hospital bed.The heavy door clanked open, and two prison guards led Arthur Sterling into the room.Arthur looked nothing like the arrogant, wealthy chairman who used to rule Sterling Group. He wore a faded gray prison uniform that hung loosely off his thin shoulders. His hair was white and unkempt, his face sunken, and his wrists were bound in heavy steel cuffs.The guards pushed Arthur into the chair across from Elias, uncuffed his hands from his waist, and stepped out, locking the door behind them.Arthur blinked under the harsh light, squinting at the man sitting across from him. A bitter, crooked smile slowly spread across Arthur’s cracked lips."Elias V
