บททั้งหมดของ Reborn:The mafia king wife : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Rain hammered against the windshield like countless silver bullets.The city beyond the glass was a blur of lights and shadows, distorted by the violent storm raging through the night.A black luxury sedan sped down the deserted highway.Inside the vehicle sat a woman whose name alone could shake the business world.Elena Hart.At twenty-eight years old, she was worth billions.She was the youngest chairwoman in the country's history.A financial genius.A self-made queen.Countless companies bowed before her.Powerful families sought her favor.Even politicians treated her with respect.Yet tonight, none of that power could save her.Blood soaked the front of her white blouse.A gunshot wound burned in her side.Every breath felt like a knife cutting through her lungs.Her pale fingers tightened around the steering wheel.Tears mixed with the rain streaking down the window.A broken laugh escaped her lips."How pathetic..."For years she had believed she possessed everything.Money.

The following week passed quietly.Too quietly.Elena knew better than to trust peace.In her previous life, she had learned that disasters rarely announced their arrival. They hid behind smiles, handshakes, and ordinary days.That was why she spent every waking moment preparing.Every morning before school, she studied market reports.Every afternoon, she observed the people around her.Every evening, she reviewed her memories of the future.One detail at a time.One clue at a time.One step closer to changing her fate.And one step closer to uncovering the people responsible for her father's future death.---Friday afternoon.The Hart Group headquarters towered above the city skyline.Glass walls reflected the sunlight.Employees moved through the lobby carrying documents and laptops.At the top floor, Richard Hart sat inside his office.A knock sounded at the door."Come in."Elena entered.Richard looked surprised."Elena?"She smiled."You promised to show me the company someday

The moment Adrian Blackwell disappeared into the building, Elena forced herself to look away. This wasn't the time. Nor was it the place. The Mafia King of the future was important. But right now, he wasn't her priority. Revenge was. Saving her father was. Changing fate was. Elena entered her car and left. She didn't notice that from the second-floor window of the building, a pair of cold eyes followed her departing vehicle. Adrian Blackwell stood silently beside the glass. His expression remained unreadable. "Young Master?" One of his bodyguards spoke. Adrian's gaze remained on the road. "The girl." The bodyguard blinked. "Sir?" "The one outside." The bodyguard immediately understood. "Should we investigate?" A long silence followed. Then Adrian looked away. "No." One encounter meant nothing. At least that's what he told himself. Yet for some reason, the image of the girl remained in his mind. Those calm eyes. Those calculating

The rain continued for three days.Three days of storms.Three days of silence.Three days of waiting.And Elena hated every second of it.Because silence often meant one thing.Someone was preparing something.Something dangerous.Something deadly.---Monday MorningHart MansionElena sat alone inside the library.The silver coin rested on the table before her.The serpent wrapped around a dagger seemed almost alive beneath the light.Cold.Sinister.Watching.For three days she had researched the symbol.Searching through archives.Business records.Private databases.Even underground forums she remembered from her previous life.Very little information existed.Almost nothing.The Serpent Circle was a ghost.A rumor.A shadow hidden behind powerful families and corporations.Yet Elena knew better.They were real.She had seen their influence firsthand.Ten years in the future.The same symbol had appeared repeatedly around Ethan Cross.At the time she ignored it.A mistake she wou

That night, after everyone in the Hart Mansion had gone to sleep, Elena remained awake.Rain tapped softly against her bedroom windows.The city lights glittered in the darkness beyond.Her laptop screen illuminated her face as she stared at the information she had gathered on Thomas Reed.The more she looked at his records, the less ordinary he appeared.On paper, Thomas was the definition of average.Average salary.Average performance reviews.Average career progression.Nothing stood out.Yet that was exactly what made him suspicious.Because people receiving secret payments rarely drew attention to themselves.They survived by blending in.By becoming invisible.And Thomas Reed had mastered that skill.---Elena opened another file.A detailed history of the hidden transactions.Each payment came from a different shell company.Different names.Different accounts.Different locations.But the pattern remained consistent.Every transfer eventually traced back to the same network.
