All Chapters of The Wife They Sent Away: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Felix stood before Augustus in the quiet study, the weight of what he had uncovered still unspoken. The silence between them felt charged, as if something had already shifted, even if it wasn’t fully revealed yet.Augustus finally broke it. “Report.”Felix inclined his head. “There are two Alessias, sir.”Augustus’s gaze sharpened, but he did not interrupt.Felix continued carefully. “The Vale family has twin daughters. Alessia Vale is the acknowledged heir. The second, Elara Vale, was not raised within the family circle. She was never publicly recognized.”A brief pause.“I am still tracing the reason she was separated from the family,”

Inside the main hall, the atmosphere shifted the moment all three groups were present.The Wolfe Group. The Sterling Financial Group. The Volkovs Global Logistics.They stood in separate clusters, each composed, watchful, and already calculating the reason behind the summons.No one said it, but the tension was there, faint at first, then slowly tightening.It didn’t take long for the discomfort to show.Marcus’s gaze moved across the room, slow and precise, before pausing on Adrian. Just for a second, but Adrian caught it. Marcus revealed nothing, his expression calm, unreadable. Still, there was something in that brief look that felt... intentional.Across the hall, Nolan stood a little apart with his team. His eyes shifted between the groups, taking everything in, the spacing, the placement of staff, the lack of branding, the way the entire setup felt too deliberate to be accidental.This wasn’t a typical corporat

Meanwhile, the conference hall had already shifted into motion. Conversations split into smaller clusters, decisions moved quietly but with urgency, and the forty-eight hours Aria had given no longer felt like time, it felt like pressure closing in from all sides.Across town, at the Wolfe estate, something else was unfolding.The stillness there was different. It was not the absence of noise, but the presence of control. Behind the glass walls of Augustus Wolfe’s study, the world seemed to slow on its own, as if even urgency needed permission to move forward. Nothing was rushed, nothing careless.Only the steady ticking of the clock filled the room, each second landing heavier than the last, marking not just time, but the quiet sense that something was about to come to light.Felix stood near the desk with a thin file open in his hands.Augustus did not look up immediately. He was seated, composed, fingers resting loosely on the arm of his chair, as if he already knew the report woul

The city had barely settled into morning when the elevator doors opened to the top floor of Aurelia Nexus Holdings.There was no announcement, no hesitation.Augustus Wolfe stepped out with Felix at his side, moving with quiet certainty, as if unfamiliar places had never applied to him. The reception area shifted almost at once, not through instruction, but instinct. Conversations softened. Movements slowed. Even those who did not recognize him understood, on some level, that this was not a man who waited to be acknowledged.Ronan was already waiting near the corridor entrance.“Mr. Wolfe,” he greeted, professional but alert. “Ms. Montclair is expecting you.”Augustus gave a small nod. No questions followed. No delay.He walked forward.The walk to Aria’s office was short, but the atmosphere shifted with every step. Staff stayed composed, yet their attention followed him in quick glances before fading into silence.Ronan stopped at the door and knocked once.“Ma’am, Mr. Wolfe is here.

She had survived everything except the thought of losing him.Aria stayed by the window after Augustus left, looking out at the city. She did not move at first. Her posture stayed controlled, her expression calm. But the silence in the room changed after the door closed.Her control didn’t break. It softened, just enough for her to breathe again.She let out a slow breath, like she had been holding it since Augustus asked his question.Then she moved.Quietly, she walked back to her desk. Her thoughts were no longer in that room. No longer on Augustus or the past he tried to pull back.They had already shifted somewhere else.To Ravensford.To Caelum.Augustus Wolfe asking questions was dangerous, but Caelum being found was worse. He never asked unless he was already close to the truth. Nothing ever escaped him.A thought came suddenly, sharp and clear.What if he finds out about Caelum?She stopped walking.That single thought changed everything.Aria had never feared being hunted. S
