Chapter 13 - The Door That Opened Too Slowly

The door opened.

Ethan’s brother stood there.

Calm.

Smiling.

Like he belonged.

“I was wondering how long it would take.”

Ethan stepped forward.

“You destroyed our family.”

His brother laughed softly.

“No. I protected it.”

That was the most terrifying part.

He didn’t think he was the villain.

He thought he was right.

He explained nothing.

He only demanded the drive.

When Ethan refused, the smile disappeared.

For the first time, I saw how dangerous he truly was.

He threatened Ethan’s company.

His reputation.

Everything.

But Ethan didn’t move.

Neither did I.

Because we finally understood something.

The divorce was never the goal.

The goal was control.

Then Ethan’s brother looked at Rose.

And said something that made my blood run cold.
