Once Cast–Off Wife, Now Untouchable Queen
Chapter 62 Burn It All Down

Before Zera could finish, Tyrone cut her off, his voice sharp and deliberate. “Please call her Mrs: Winter!”
Zera’s eyes flickered with unwillingness, but she forced a calm tone. “I’m sorry, Tyrone. She asked me to call her that,” she explained.
Then she continued carefully, “A few days ago, she called me and told me to bring my son here. She said she’d divorce you and let us be together. She even hired a renovation team and told me to redesign the villa–so we could live here as a family.”
Tyrone froze in the middle of the living room, his body trembling slightly.
So the renovation wasn’t because Aella had come around. It wasn’t because she planned to move back in.
She did it to bring Zera and her son here, forcing him to make a choice.
Zera noticed how dark Tyrone’s face had turned and gently nudged her son.
Orson glanced at his mother, then cautiously walked toward Tyrone.
He raised his small hands, asking for a hug. “Daddy, Aella is so nice. She made a room for me–with a ship model and Transformers!”
Daddy?
Aella?
Tyrone’s mind went blank. His head buzzed. He nearly lost it.
He pushed Orson away, his face cold and hard. “Orson, I’m not your dad.”
The boy stumbled back, startled. “But Mommy said-”
Before he could finish, Zera hurried to cover his mouth and pull him close.
Tyrone’s glare pinned Zera in place. He gave her a judgmental look. “I’ve told you before. I will never be Orson’s father.”
Zera lowered her head, pretending to be remorseful. “I’m sorry. He’s just craving a father’s love. Please don’t take it to heart. I’ll make sure he never calls you that again.”
She silently breathed a sigh of relief. Good thing she had let the boy test him out.

Chapter 62 Burn It All Down
If she’d said it herself, Tyrone wouldn’t have just let it slide.
Without another word, Tyrone stormed upstairs.
He opened the door to the music room–only to find it turned into a child’s bedroom.
Leaning against the wall, he closed his eyes wearily.

When he heard movement at the door, he didn’t turn. “The two violins that used to be in this room. Where are they?”
Zera stayed by the door, afraid to enter. “Mrs. Winter burned them.”
Tyrone’s eyes snapped open. “Burned?”
Zera nodded nervously. “Not just the violins. She burned a lot of things that day–in the garden.”
Before she could finish, Tyrone was already rushing out to the hallway.
Zera held Orson’s hand and slowly followed him to the garden.
In the garden, the ruins from that fire still lay untouched. Aella had left them there on purpose -for Tyrone to see when he came home. To make sure he knew there was no going back.
Tyrone stood beside the pile of ashes, frozen. His breath caught when he saw what lay among the ruins a violin, charred beyond recognition.
That violin had been Aella’s eighteenth birthday gift from him.
He could still see that night vividly. Aella wore a white cocktail dress and a diamond tiara. It was the first time she’d worn makeup, her beauty glowing under the chandelier light.
Holding her father’s arm, she walked gracefully down the grand staircase, stunning everyone in the room.
But when her eyes found him, her smile outshone everything else. She broke free from her father, ran straight to him, and tugged on his arm with a playful grin. “Tyrone, where’s my gift?”
When he handed her the violin, she beamed and leaned into his chest, teasing and sweet.
She told him she’d only ever play for him.
Later, he found out that she had secretly changed her college plans from music to medicine- just so she could help treat his insomnia. She’d given up more than ten years of rigorous violin practice for him.

That violin had always sat safely in her music room, her most treasured thing
And now she’d burned it without a second thought.
Tyrone felt as if all the strength in his body had been sucked away.
His knees gave out, and he collapsed beside the wreckage.
