Revenge Born of Betrayal의 모든 챕터: 챕터 11 - 챕터 20

Aurora’s words still hung in the air—like an invisible blade pressed against both their throats.Dante stood rigid.Lily didn’t even dare breathe too loudly.“So?” Aurora’s voice sounded light—far too light for a moment this heavy. “I don’t like waiting.”Dante stared at her for a long time.He understood now.This was no longer about protecting a small secret.No longer about switching babies.It had become… something far bigger.A war.And Aurora… was clearly not someone they could defeat by ordinary means.If they had once thought her foolish for being deceived over the past two years, now they were seeing her true side—far more terrifying than they had ever imagined.“What do you want?” Dante finally asked.Aurora smiled faintly. “Good. You’re starting to think.”She walked slowly, holding her baby carefully.Her steps were calm. But every movement… calculated.“I want everything,” she said simply.Dante frowned. “Everything?”Aurora stopped. Then turned slowly.Her gaze sharpened

Morning came… colder than usual.Sunlight streamed through the large windows of the house, yet it carried no warmth at all.As if the house itself… rejected the light.Aurora was already prepared.She stood in the front hall, dressed in a neat dark gray suit. Her face was calm. Too calm for someone who had just gone through a night full of betrayal.Behind her, two nannies stood.One of them… the same nanny who had been “careless” the night before.Yet Aurora did not fire her.Did not reprimand her.Did not punish her in any way.Because to Aurora…Mistakes were not meant to be punished.They were meant to be used.“Bring them,” Aurora said softly.One of the nannies nodded, carefully carrying Aurora’s baby.The other… carried Lily’s baby.Aurora glanced briefly at the infant.Her expression remained cold.But her eyes… shifted slightly.There was no hatred there.Because Aurora would never use a baby as a tool for revenge.She would never lower herself… to harm something innocent.“S

Silence lingered on the other end of the call… far too long.Aurora did not hang up.She simply waited for an answer.But all she could hear was… steady, quiet breathing.As if the person on the other side was in no hurry at all.Aurora narrowed her eyes slightly.“You called me… but you’re not speaking?”A few seconds passed.Then finally—A voice emerged. Low and flat.Yet somehow… dangerously calm.“I just want to confirm something.”Aurora did not respond. Her gaze hardened.“Confirm what?” she asked at last.A pause.“That you… are exactly as they say.”Aurora gave a faint smile. “And what do they say about me?”The man’s voice almost sounded like it carried a hint of a smile.“That you never lose.”Aurora tilted her head slightly. “And?”“And I want to see… if that’s true.”Silence.Aurora was not angry. Nor offended.Instead… she looked intrigued.“In that case,” she said softly, “you’re testing me?”“You could say that.”Aurora’s smile deepened. Her gaze shifted—Sharper. More

Meanwhile—Lily was still arguing with the police.Her voice was growing more and more uncontrollable.But Dante… could no longer hear her clearly.His focus was on one thing—Aurora.“Go ahead and continue your report,” Aurora’s voice came again, light and calm. “I’m actually curious… how far you can go before everything falls apart.”Dante swallowed.“You want to destroy me? Have you forgotten that I’m your husband?”Aurora let out a soft laugh.“No. You’re the one who forgot who a husband is supposed to protect.”A pause.“So I just want to see… how quickly you destroy yourselves.”Those words… were cold. Ruthless.Dante clenched his fists tighter. “Where are you right now?”“I’m at the hospital.” Aurora answered honestly.Dante stiffened instantly. “What are you doing there?”“Saving something a mother considers unimportant.”The sentence was soft. But heavy.Dante closed his eyes for a moment. “That baby… is Lily’s child.”Aurora smiled on the other end. “Only biologically.”Dant

“…what?”Dante’s voice sounded more like a breath than a word.The room shifted instantly. All eyes turned to him.The officer looked at him seriously. “We will investigate further, Mr. Dante. But for now… you are in a very unfavorable position.”Dante didn’t respond right away. His mind raced.This wasn’t a coincidence. Someone was playing a game. And this game… was too precise.Lily stared at him, her breathing uneven. “Did you hear that?!” Her voice rose. “Now even the threat is using your name!”Dante turned slowly. His gaze was cold. “Be quiet.”That single word… was enough to make Lily freeze.But only for a moment.Because the next second, she let out a soft laugh.A fragile one.“How ironic… We’re destroying each other… while someone else watches.”Silence.Aurora’s lawyer closed his folder calmly.“If there is nothing further,” he said smoothly, “my client hopes the police will focus on facts… not assumptions.”The officer nodded.But the tension remained.Because one thing w
