The CEO’s Regret My Ex-Wife is a Tech Goddess novel Chapter 279

"She trusts me and follows me because I'm the only person in the world who gave her a reason to keep living."

"She does exactly what I tell her, even if it means deceiving her own flesh and blood."

"If I'm a fraud, then what does that make her?"

He deliberately slowed his words, injecting them with a calculated malice designed to shatter Silas's composure and tear down his final defenses.

"Think about it, Silas."

"You only fell into my hands because you, too, are desperate for hope. No matter how indifferent you act, deep down, you want to break your family's cursed bloodline and survive."

"So drop the arrogant act. You're nothing more than an ordinary man trying to stay alive."

The moment the words landed, the air seemed to solidify, freezing over entirely.

The Archmage waited in silence, eager to see Silas lose control, break down in tears, or scream in agony.

But the expected panic, shock, and devastation never came.

In the dim lighting, Silas's sharp features remained flawlessly composed. Not a single ripple of emotion showed in his eyes. It was as if he hadn't just been told of his mother's horrific betrayal, but rather some meaningless trivia.

He didn't even twitch an eyebrow.

His soaked dark hair clung to his forehead, making his strikingly handsome face look even paler and more ruthless.

Throughout the prolonged silence, his composure held like a bottomless, frozen abyss, entirely impenetrable.
