Zarek turned to Adeline, his gaze lowering with effortless courtesy. “I overheard someone questioning your character and found myself speaking up. I hope my intervention without your consent hasn’t complicated matters for you“]

Adeline suppressed her surprise at being addressed with such consideration by someone of his stature. “…I should be the one apologizing for dragging you into this, Mr. Weasley

“Would you like me to provide further context to these people?” he asked

…If you wouldn’t mind “[]

She carefully regulated her breathing, fighting to maintain composure[]

The socialites in attendance watched with barely concealed fascination. A man with his looks who still conducted himself with such refined courtesy–the way he dipped his head to address her privately was simply devastating []

Zarck, turned to face the crowd “Last night, I was indeed the one who intervened on Miss Paige’s behalf.“[]

I was concluding business at that hotel when, upon leaving, I encountered Miss Paige in the corridor. She appeared disoriented.

Perhaps… Had her circumstances appeared so dire that it awakened some latent protective instinct in him?

As these thoughts crossed her mind, her eyes remained fixed on him. This upward–gazing expression was captured perfectly by Tristan, who missed nothing

Tristan’s fists tightened involuntarily.

Both the Kelce and Grantham families remained strategically silent. When Evelyn attempted to speak, Daniela swiftly covered her mouth.]]

The guests nodded in agreement, expressing complete belief in Zarek’s account.

The Weasley heir personally vouching for Adeline–what could possibly carry more weight?

Even if Adeline had actually been with eight men, even with irrefutable evidence, everyone present would suddenly develop selective blindness and deafness, their mouths firmly sealed

Anyone contradicting him would be directly challenging the Weasley heir.]

Besides, his investiment in the situation suggested Adeline must truly be innocent. Even compassion for a beautiful woman in distress wouldn’t move someone of his standing to defend a genuinely compromised reputation] Thank you for saving my wife!“]

Tristan stepped forward and placed his arm around Adeline’s shoulders, like a drowning man grasping at anything that might float []

Before Zarek could respond, Adeline coldly removed Tristan’s hand. “Mr. Kelce, you have absolutely no right to speak for me. And I wasn’t joking about the divorce–you’ve already signed the papers. Tomorrow at noon, the cooling off period ends!“[]

Tristan’s eyes widened in horror. “You honestly believe I would do this to you? I would never hurt you![]

Adeline stared at tam silently before breaking into a bitter laugh “Never hurt me? How dare you say that with a straight face?]

You think I just discovered your affair with Evelyn? ||

Ive known everything every date every hotel room, every vacation“]

“Do you have any concept of what it feels like to have a knife driven through your heart, yet somehow you don’t die? Just constant torture, day and night, like descending into the deepest circle of hell. And for what? What did I do wrong? How did I ever fail your

Her voice remained soft els gentle but each word carried the weight of profound betrayal
