And if you continue creating trouble at Alex’s corporation, there is a high chance we will lose their backing as well.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paused, rubbing his temple as though the pressure of the situation had begun to physically hurt him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Without Alex’s corporation supporting us, our company will keep sliding toward bankruptcy. Eventually, we will have no choice but to file for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room smelled faintly of old paper and brewed tea gone cold, an oddly suffocating scent that made Tanya’s chest tighten.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She lowered her head, lips pressed together, unable to argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her silent, her father’s voice softened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are an independent woman. Why must you remain so fixated on him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tanya looked up, her eyes trembling. \"He was the first person who ever treated me well...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her father raised a hand to stop her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You will meet many capable people in your life. Do not mistake timing for destiny. You are clinging to Alex because you have not seen enough of the world yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He leaned back and sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It would be better if you went abroad for some time. Live properly. Experience things beyond this place.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tanya stared at him in disbelief. \"Are you sending me away just because of Alex?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He shook his head firmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. I am doing this because I do not want to watch my daughter spiral out of control.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The words broke whatever restraint she had left. Tears burst from her eyes, hot and uncontrollable, slipping down her cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>................................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very next day, her father arranged everything for her departure abroad.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one outside the family knew what had truly happened. To outsiders, it simply looked like Tanya had gone overseas for further opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two years later, when she returned, she spoke of Alex with indifference, even mild disdain. \"He was nothing more than a foolish crush of mine,\" she would say casually, as if speaking of an embarrassing mistake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had moved on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later in life, she even married someone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That, however, was a story for another time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>......................................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Tanya left, Alex and Adeline quietly began planning their future together, their days filled with cautious happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, somewhere else, another pair was preparing for an important turning point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules and Lucas had decided to get engaged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The timing was deliberate. Nick’s company was under immense pressure, tangled in crisis after crisis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once they learned of this turmoil, they chose to move quickly, unwilling to give Nick even the chance to appear at their celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A fast engagement meant no interference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When both families heard their plan, they readily agreed. Even Aurora supported the decision without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>............................................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The engagement hall was soon transformed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soft golden lights reflected off crystal decorations, and the scent of fresh lilies and roses filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora personally oversaw every detail, inviting all her friends, including Mia and Selena, and even a few of their old kindergarten companions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the arrangements were complete, she went to get ready.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of her vivid red hair, she chose something that complemented it, a beautiful red-and-white floral dress that flowed lightly around her frame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After changing into it, she stood before the mirror, smoothing the fabric and smiling at her reflection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She snapped a photo and sent it to her boyfriend before heading to the venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon arrival, she immediately began inspecting everything again, ensuring every arrangement was perfect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after confirming everything did she finally sit down and check her phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the screen, reports about Nick’s company appeared one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their operations were collapsing under mounting pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora’s lips curved faintly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, she had orchestrated it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nick and Jerry had believed they could easily crush her family, but they had chosen the wrong opponent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they were scrambling daily for funding just to keep their company alive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One article mentioned Nick desperately courting investors and drinking himself sick during negotiations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora felt a deep, cold satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This man tried to ruin my second brother... and even targeted my eldest brother and his wife. How could I possibly let him go?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze hardened. ’Someone like him deserves to rot at the very bottom.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just then, movement at the entrance caught her attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A beautiful woman walked in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora immediately recognized her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes narrowed. As far as she remembered, Maya had not been invited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’What is she doing here?’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora stood up, but before she could approach, Adriana reached Maya first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya paused, then smiled gracefully. \"Is something wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana returned the smile, though there was no warmth in it. \"I do not recall inviting you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya chuckled lightly. \"Of course, you are busy. I came as a friend of a friend.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If that is the case,\" Adriana replied sweetly, \"I will cancel whichever friend invited you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya’s expression finally faltered. \"Why are you being so hostile?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana’s smile sharpened. \"Anyone would be hostile upon seeing someone who has repeatedly made things difficult for their sister-in-law.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya instantly understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana already knew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At those confrontational words, Maya calmly sat down in a nearby chair, crossing her legs with deliberate elegance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at Adriana as though humoring a clown.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I understand you want to protect your sister-in-law,\" Maya said coolly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But do you even know what kind of person she truly is?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana waved her hand dismissively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am not interested in hearing stories about my own family from an outsider.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gestured toward the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It would be better if you leave now. Otherwise, I will have to call security. That would be far more humiliating.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face held a trace of mock pity as the music from inside the hall continued to play, cheerful and bright, in stark contrast to the tension gathering at the doorway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Maya heard that, she narrowed her eyes slightly, a smirk forming on her lips as if she had just heard an amusing joke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should not get so cocky,\" she said, her tone sweet but edged with steel. \"A little humility would suit you better.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana chuckled, completely unfazed. \"I could say the same to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya’s fingers curled tightly into her palm, her nails pressing into her skin, yet the smile on her face never disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I truly love your sense of humor,\" she replied, every word sounding polite and insincere at the same time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stood up slowly and looked Adriana straight in the eye. \"I will return soon,\" she declared, \"and next time, I will come with someone far more powerful.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adriana did not even blink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whoever that powerful person is,\" she answered calmly, \"I will decline their invitation directly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice turned colder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And let me make this very clear. If you dare to do anything against Jules again, I will personally make sure you regret every single move you make.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maya’s fist tightened further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’This woman, whose salary is not even comparable to mine, thinks she can threaten me?’ she thought bitterly. ’Fine. Let us see who regrets their words.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without another word, she turned and walked toward the exit, heels striking the floor sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she stepped outside, she rolled her eyes and muttered under her breath, \"What terrible luck.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside, Adriana let out a quiet sigh and resumed overseeing the preparations as though nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurora, who had witnessed the entire exchange from a distance, watched Adriana with an appreciative glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’She handled that perfectly,’ she thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Jules had come over just to ensure there were no issues at the venue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Adriana stand up for her so firmly, she felt deeply moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had never imagined she would gain such a supportive sister-in-law.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes grew moist, though she quickly blinked the tears away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I am really going to become part of this family,’ she thought, her heart swelling with emotion. ’I must cherish them even more after the marriage.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...........................................\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, the engagement ceremony began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hall filled with laughter, music, and the faint fragrance of flowers and champagne.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Guests chatted warmly, glasses clinked, and soft lights shimmered across the decorations. After a brief celebration, it was finally time for the ring ceremony.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Lucas slid the ring onto Jules’s finger, applause erupted across the hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a perfect day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucas, overwhelmed with happiness, drank far more than usual. His cheeks flushed, and his movements became unsteady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright?\" several people asked with concern.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only smiled, his voice thick but sincere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am more than alright. I am just... very happy. I finally have the love of my life beside me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, he looked at Jules with unfiltered affection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jules blushed deeply. She never imagined life would offer her another chance at happiness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’Maybe leaving Nick’s house that night was the right decision,’ she thought quietly. ’If I had not walked away... I would never have met Lucas.’\u003C\u002Fp>",1518,"2026-06-06T04:03:49.636Z",1,"novelbin.me","75dcff6726fb412d014eb336b1420b8f6e384e682618ce0d8a51f905c428c9e4","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-528","born-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-chapter-526",614,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fborn-into-villain-s-family-i-have-a-200-rebate-s-cover.jpg"]
