Victor's voice grew colder. “If | say | don’t want her, you just give up searching? Is she really that insignificant to
you?”
Dale stayed silent.
His silence gave away what he truly thought.
Victor let out a sharp laugh. “So the rumors are true. You only acknowledge the children you had with Artemis.”
Any child born from another woman meant nothing in Dale’s eyes.
Dale’s gaze turned even colder.
Victor went on, “You'll hand her over eventually. After all, isn’t she the very reason we struck at the Ashen Pact in
the first place? Once we have her, maybe we'll even leave the Pact alone.”
That one word-“maybe“-dripped with uncertainty.
Dale’s temple throbbed.
For the first time, he understood what real shamelessness looked like.
He didn’t want to waste another word on Victor. With a cold snort, he turned and walked toward the door.
Just as he stepped out, Victor's voice rose again. “You really don’t remember?”
Dale froze.
Don’t remember?
He turned back. Meeting Victor's eyes, he felt that sstrange familiarity.
It was so strong, it felt like they'd once been deeply connected. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't
recall where they had met.
“We've met before, haven't we?” Dale asked.
Victor's tone was flat. “We haven't.”

Victor repeated, “We've never met.”

Dale left.
Inside, Tessa was on the phone with Stella. Tessa always turned to Stella when she needed comfort.
Outside, only Victor and Lewis remained.
Lewis glanced at the photo and couldn't stop himself from muttering, “How many kids does. Dale even have?”
Victor shot him a look but stayed silent.
Lewis clicked his tongue. “He didn’t even recognize his own daughter, then turned around asking if she was one
of your women. He never even thought about it-for years you didn’t have a single one around you...”
Silas walked in just in tto hear that.
He cleared his throat loudly, but Lewis missed the hint and kept going. Holding the photo, he shoved it toward
Silas. “Look, isn’t this clearly Ms. Tessa? You recognize that figure instantly. Unless Dale never knew his own
daughter to begin with.”
His own daughter.
His own flesh and blood.
Silas cut him off. “Enough.”
Victor's face darkened.
Lewis frowned. “What? I'm just telling the truth. Back then, Victor didn’t even have a single woman around him.
Now Dale thinks Victor's splayboy, juggling Tessa and another
woman?”
“Stop talking,” Silas said again.
Lewis laughed. “You didn’t see the way he looked earlier. He actually thought Victor used Tessa as a cover to go
after the Ashen Pact. The guy gets beaten half to death and still doesn’t even know what he did wrong!”
Silas
gave
him a sharp look but said nothing.
Victor's voice turned icy. “You knew?”

Lewis blinked. “Of course. It's the sold story. A guy loses his head over a woman, and even heroes fall for a
pretty face.”
Before he finished, something heavy flew straight at him.
Lewis ducked just in time. It smacked right into Silas’s forehead instead.
“Ugh.” Silas groaned.
Both men fell silent.
Lewis looked stunned. Victor looked furious.
“Victor, I-what did | even say wrong?” Lewis stammered.
Did | really say something wrong again? Was | not even allowed to talk anymore?
Victor snapped, “Get out!”
“Okay!”
Lewis bolted from the room, not
daring to stay. Resa?

But what exactly had he said wrong this time? He couldn't figure it out.
Silas rubbed his aching forehead. “Victor, this...”
Victor pinched the bridge of his nose. “Make him keep that damn mouth sh*t.”
Sthings should never be said out loud.
Victor's patience with Lewis had worn thin. Silas nodded and left.

“You can't stop her,” Tessa said, conflicted.
When Marie lost her temper, it was no joke. No one could stop her with just a word.
“Then Victor will,” Stella said.
