All Chapters of The Triplets' Regret: Bowing to Their Luna: Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

The morning pancakes went completely untouched.They sat on the ceramic plates, growing cold and heavy as the morning sun slowly crawled across the kitchen floor. Nobody cared about the food. The three men sitting around my table looked as though they had just walked off a battlefield. Their faces were ashen and drawn. The sharp, predatory confidence that usually defined the Vane heirs was entirely gone. It was replaced by a hollow, agonizing shock."Start from the very beginning," Jaren requested. His voice was stripped of its usual smooth, tactical authority. It sounded raw and ruined.I sat down at the head of the wooden table. I did not want to drag them through the mud of our childhood, but they needed the clinical truth if we were going to survive the fallout."It was the summer I turned eight," I began, keeping my tone perfectly steady. "The three of you were playing near the deep end of the estate lake. The undercurrent there is notoriously lethal, but you were young and reckl

The confrontation with Dr. Aldrich happened much sooner than I had originally planned.We had intended to wait another week. I wanted to gather more concrete evidence and build an airtight chemical case before making a move. But Kaelen's suppressed memories were deteriorating at an alarming, violent rate. The artificial cracks in the Duchess's psychological conditioning were spreading faster than any of us anticipated. Kaelen was suffering through agonizing episodes multiple times a day now. Fragmented visions of his true past were violently clashing with the false narratives he had believed for a decade, leaving him physically sick and completely drained."We cannot wait any longer," I told the others, watching Kaelen swallow a basic painkiller with a trembling hand. "If we wait another week to strike, his mind might fracture completely under the pressure.""Then we make our move tonight," Jaren stated. His voice was grim and stripped of all hesitation. "Dr. Aldrich currently lives i

"I can explain the logistics," he pleaded, his professional facade crumbling into dust. "I can tell you everything about the operation. The compound structures, the psychological techniques, the specific people involved. I know the entire network.""Then you better start talking right now." Kaelen crossed his arms over his chest. "And if my instincts tell me you are lying for even a second, you will not leave this room walking."So, the doctor talked.For three grueling hours, Dr. Aldrich sat in one of the hard wooden dining chairs and confessed to a lifetime of medical malpractice and treason. He explained how the Duchess had approached him shortly after she first married into House Vane. She was young, fiercely ambitious, and obsessed with securing her absolute authority. When she recognized that the triplets held a genuine affection for an orphaned servant girl, she saw a fatal threat to her absolute control. She had bribed and threatened Dr. Aldrich into creating synthetic compoun

We would be changing the rules of the entire continent."We need to move with extreme caution," I said finally, dropping my voice. "We build these alliances quietly. We gather more secondary evidence to back up Dr. Aldrich's confession. We make absolutely sure that when we strike the final blow, we hit them so hard they cannot ever recover.""How much time do you need to prepare the tribunal case?" Thad asked."A month. Maybe two months at the absolute maximum." I looked at each of the brothers in turn. "But the Duchess is not going to wait quietly in her cell that long. She is already attempting to manipulate Kaelen's brain chemistry again. She is still fighting this war from behind bars.""Then we have to be significantly faster," Thad declared, his jaw setting with stubborn determination."Then we work faster," I agreed. "The coalition has private investigators. We have people who know exactly how to bypass corporate security and uncover buried secrets. If we officially frame this

"The synthetic memory lotus compound," I stated flatly. "The exact batch you smuggled out of this facility and sent to Dr. Aldrich last week. Explain why.""Because you were getting too close to the truth." Her expression did not shift a single fraction of an inch. "The emotional bond was strengthening. The suppressed neural pathways were starting to repair themselves naturally. If I did not intervene with a heavy chemical dose immediately...""You would have lost your absolute control over Kaelen.""I would have lost everything," she corrected smoothly. She looked down at the vial, evaluating the liquid like a disappointed scientist. "Do you have any idea what happens to a wolf's brain when two decades of chemical memory suppression break down violently? The mind cannot process the sudden cognitive dissonance. The psychological damage is severe and often permanent.""Are you actually trying to claim you were protecting him?""I am claiming that I made necessary executive choices." He
