Revenge Born of Betrayal의 모든 챕터: 챕터 41 - 챕터 50

Aurora didn’t step back. Nor did she move away.“If you have something to say,” she said quietly, “…say it clearly. Don’t hide behind words.”The man didn’t answer right away.His gaze remained fixed on her, as if measuring… how far she was willing to go to hear the truth.“The truth isn’t always pleasant,” he finally said.Aurora gave a faint smile. “Pleasant things have never interested me.”The man gave a small nod, as if he had expected that answer.“In that case…”He stepped back, creating distance.Not to retreat.But to make everything… clearer.“There’s a strong possibility… that Hazel is not Dante’s child.”The words fell. Not loud. Not explosive.But their impact… ran far deeper.Aurora didn’t react immediately.Her posture remained straight.Her expression… controlled.But only Aurora knew—her heart… was beating faster.“That’s a bold accusation,” she said quietly.The man shook his head. “Not an accusation. A possibility.”Aurora crossed her arms, holding back something r

The silence lasted only a few seconds.But it was enough to make everything clear.One of the officers stepped forward.His gaze was firm.“On suspicion of embezzlement of company funds,” he stated bluntly.Dante didn’t move.That sentence… wasn’t new. It wasn’t surprising.Because he… already knew. Or at least had begun to realize it since this morning.Aurora.“And the audit team has gathered sufficient evidence,” the officer continued.Dante let out a quiet laugh. Soft. Hollow.At last… he exhaled deeply, then gave a small nod.“So… this is what you meant,” he murmured.The officer frowned. “What did you say?”Dante shook his head. He didn’t answer.But in his mind… all the pieces finally fell into place.Someone will come for you later.Aurora’s words… echoed again.And now—Dante stood before the people who had come to “pick him up.”Not someone.But the law.He looked at the two officers in front of him.No resistance. No attempt to run.Because he knew… every path was already cl

That night, Aurora sat beside the baby’s crib.Hazel slept soundly in front of her.The room was dimly lit, a warm glow reflecting softly on the baby’s small face.Aurora said nothing. Her gaze remained fixed on Hazel.But deep inside… her thoughts were anything but still.Those words echoed again.“Your life and Hazel’s will truly change.”Aurora exhaled slowly.Her fingers gently brushed over Hazel’s tiny hand.“No matter what happens…” Aurora whispered softly, “…I won’t let anyone touch you.”As if the promise had to be repeated. As if the world outside… was already beginning to move too fast.A soft knock sounded.Aurora didn’t turn immediately. But the knock came again.“Ma’am…”Aurora drew a breath. “Come in.”The door opened slowly. Her personal assistant stepped in carefully.His expression was different. As if there was something urgent he needed to say.“What is it?” Aurora asked without taking her eyes off Hazel.The assistant bowed his head slightly. “We’ve just received a

Aurora read the message once more.The sentence was short. Straight to the point. Yet enough to make one thing clear—whatever awaited her there was not something simple.She didn’t reply.She didn’t delete it either.Aurora simply turned off her phone screen, then drew a slow breath. Within seconds, the decision had already formed. Not because she was certain—but because she would not step back.She moved closer to the small crib again. Hazel was still fast asleep, undisturbed, as if the world was always meant to be that way—calm and far from all complications.Aurora reached out, touching those tiny fingers for a moment.“I’ll be back,” she said softly, more as a promise to herself.She stood without hesitation. Picked up her bag, then walked out of the room.Outside, her assistant was already waiting.“The car is ready, Ma’am.”Aurora gave a brief nod. “No escort.”The assistant looked slightly surprised. “But—”“I don’t want to draw attention,” Aurora cut in calmly.He finally nodd

Darius didn’t answer the question right away.Aurora still stood in front of him, not backing down even an inch. The distance between them wasn’t far, but it was enough to make one thing clear—neither of them would yield.“I didn’t come here to start a war,” Darius said at last.Aurora gave a faint smile. “Everyone who says that… is usually already prepared to do exactly that.”Darius didn’t deny it. “I came to take responsibility.”“You haven’t even proven anything yet,” Aurora cut in sharply. “And you’re already talking about responsibility?”Darius nodded slightly. “Because I know what happened that night.”“What you think you know,” Aurora corrected, “isn’t necessarily the truth.”“Then let’s prove it.”The sentence was simple, but it was enough to momentarily halt Aurora’s train of thought.“A DNA test,” Darius continued. “That will settle everything.”Aurora didn’t respond immediately. She turned her face away for a moment, took a breath, then looked back at him.“And after that
