All Chapters of The Wife They Sent Away: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

The room stayed frozen after Marta whispered, “Elara...”No one moved. Her eyes stayed locked on Aria, wide and shaking, like she was afraid the moment would disappear if she blinked. The silence in the small house felt heavy.Aria took a slow step forward, then stopped. For the first time since arriving in Gray Hollow, she looked unsure. Not afraid, just overwhelmed by standing in front of someone she once left behind.Marcus quietly stepped back. He understood this moment was not for anyone else.Marta’s lips trembled. “Elara...?” she whispered again, like she could not believe it.Aria’s voice softened. “It’s me,” she answered quietly.That broke Marta.

Aria read the letter in silence, each line settling heavier inside her chest.The handwriting was uneven, hurried in places, as if it had been written by someone afraid time was running out.My sweet girl,If you are reading this, then I could not come back safely.Aria’s fingers tightened around the paper, but she didn’t stop reading.I never abandoned you.A shaky breath slipped out before she could hold it back.Solen believed hiding you was the only way to protect you.

The corridor outside the ICU remained quiet under dim night lighting. Wilma stood a moment at the glass panel, watching Marta through the window. The monitors still showed steady readings. The soft beeping hadn’t changed. Nothing looked wrong.But the feeling in her chest refused to settle.She exhaled slowly, trying to dismiss it. “I’m just tired,” she murmured to herself.Still, instead of continuing toward the visitor rest area, she hesitated. Her steps slowed, then stopped completely. A strange unease tightened in her stomach, not thought, not reason, just instinct.Wilma frowned slightly and looked back at the ICU doors.After a brief pause, she turned around.Inside, everything appeared normal. A nurse stood near Marta’s bed, checking the IV line and glancing at the monitor. His movements were calm, routine, unremarkable.Wilma stepped in again. “Is everything alright?” she asked carefully.The nurse turned his head slightly. “Yes. Stable. Just routine checks.”Wilma scanned the

The toxicology results came back only hours after Marta’s death.Adrian stood by the window with his hands behind his back as a senior doctor entered, carrying a sealed report with a lab consultant beside him.The doctor carefully set the file on the table. “We've completed the full toxicology test,” he said.Adrian didn’t sit. “What did you find?”The doctor opened the report. “We found an unprescribed compound in Marta’s bloodstream. A fast-acting cardiac destabilizer.”Aria’s expression hardened.“In a patient with severe heart failure,” the doctor continued carefully, “it could trigger a fatal arrhythmia within minutes.&r

Before Aria left the mansion, Adrian stopped her near the study door. “Nico goes with you,” he said firmly.Aria nodded. “I know.”Then he looked toward the hallway. “Nico.”Within seconds, Nico appeared.“Stay with her at all times,” Adrian ordered. “If anything feels wrong, get her out immediately.”Nico nodded once. “Yes, sir.”Aria watched him quietly. Adrian rarely showed concern openly, but she could hear it beneath his calm tone.“Be careful,” he said more softly.She gave a small nod before leaving.The study fell silent after the door closed.Cold blue light from the monitors still filled the room, but the atmosphere had changed. The search itself was over for now. What remained was dealing with the consequences of what they had uncovered.Adrian picked up his phone and called Cedric Doyle. The call connected quickly.“What's up? Cedric asked without greeting.“Release the announcement,” Adrian said.A brief silence followed on the other end.“You’re certain?” Cedric asked ca
