Chapter 5 — The Betrayal of a Brother
Silas didn’t deny anything.
He only said:
“You always were emotional, Lincoln.”
The room froze.
Lincoln stared.
“Explain.”
Silas revealed the truth.
Years ago, Lincoln’s empire was collapsing.
Enemies were everywhere.
Silas made a deal.
He secretly worked with rival families.
But Elena discovered it.
She threatened to expose him.
So Silas arranged the crash.
Not to kill her.
Only to scare her.
But the plan went wrong.
Elena died.
And Silas spent three years controlling Lincoln through grief.
Making him weaker.
Making him angry.
Making him dependent.
Lincoln looked at the man beside him.
The man he called brother.
“You killed my wife.”
Silas smiled.
“No.”
