Married To The Blind Heir (by Tessa Galvin) novel Chapter 297

Chapter 297

Logan’s voice was so loud that it carried through the glass without needing the phone

Eliana’s brows furrowed sharply. She suddenly pulled free from Theodore’s grip and returned to the glass window, picking up the phone. Her eyes locked with Logan’s.

She said, “Do you even call yourself a father? No, you’re not even a man! Real men don’t blame everyone else for their mistakes. Have you ever thought about how your son felt when he turned you in?”

In that moment, Eliana’s heart ached beyond words. “Everyone says he’s ruthless and cold–that he broke his own brother’s leg and sent his father to prison.”

She continued, “But they don’t know the real story! While you’ve been serving time in here, he’s been torn apart by public opinion, Andhe still had to carry Russell Group forward. He was barely twenty years old

Logan glared at her with fury. “Who the hell are you to lecture me? He just used me as a stepping stone to take over the company!”

Eliana retorted, “I think hatred has blinded you. You can only see the worst in him now!”

Elana knew this feeling all too well–it was just like Belinda, who found fault with everything she did. “These past two years, while he’s been blind, you must have been thrilled, right? Thinking it was all his karma coming back to bite him?”

Logan didn’t hesitate. “Damn right! It’s exactly what that bastard deserved

Eliana Etted her chin, her voice carrying the weight of an oath. “No. I’m telling you, I will always love him, stay by his side. He will never die

alone.”

Her words brought tears to Barbara’s eyes.

Jayden sat frozen, stunned. He’d heard plenty of dramatic declarations on TV, but nothing had ever hit him like this.

Theodore watched her, clearly moved, though he kept his emotions in check, “Mrs. Russell, we should go

“Alright.” Eliana set down the phone and walked toward Theodore.

After they disappeared, Lainey cautiously glanced at Logan. He sat hunched over the table, head down, lost in thought.

Lainey picked up the phone, forcing a smile into her voice. “Logan, let’s talk about something happy. Jayden’s grades are improving.”

With a loud bang. Logan grabbed the chair behind him and hurled it at the glass window. Barbara and Jayden scrambled backward in terror,

Watching

ching Logan lose control, Lainey covered her mouth and broke down sobbing.

The bulletproof glass didn’t even crack. A chair was nothing against it.

Logan let his arms drop, his face blank as he spoke into the phone. “Lainey, take Barbie and Jayden out. I need to talk to Anthony”

“Okay.” Lainey took Barbara and Jayden’s hands and left.

For the first time ever, Barbara and Jayden didn’t look back. They right and wrong, love and loss.

y were still reeling from everything they’d witnessed. The clash between

Especially Jayden–he’d hated Theodore since he was old enough to understand, living in the fairy tale world that Lainey and Anthony had woven for him.

Chapter 297

He was the brave knight fighting the evil dragon. But today, the adults had torn away the truth, turning his fairy tale into a horror story. Maybe he wasn’t the hero, and Theodore wasn’t the villain.

Meanwhile, inside the Rolls–Royce, Cliana said the moment she got in, “Theodore, I’m sorry”

Theodore touched her head gently, “I don’t blame you for what you said to my father” After all, he wasn’t much better himself

But Eliana shook her head. “It’s not just that.”

She used to think like everyone else that he was cold and heartless, Now that the truth was out, she really wanted to hug him.

Eliana looked at him with sadness in her eyes. “Can I hug you?”

Theodore froze momentarily, then lifted his arms and embraced her. He kissed her forehead softly. “Mrs. Russell, I’m happy today.”

“What?” She thought to herself, “Happy?” But she couldn’t see any happiness on his face.

Maybe Lainey would think he came today just to provoke Logan on purpose. But Eliana felt that perhaps he wanted to tell Logan, as a son, that he was doing well now.

What he got in return wasn’t his father’s blessing, but a vicious curse.

Theodore suddenly heard her sobbing. He lifted her chin, his thumb brushing away the moisture from her eyes. “What, you think I’m lying to

you?”

He never expected Logan’s blessing when he came today, but he came anyway.

The real reason was that he wanted to prove to Logan that the broken Theodore from before was dead. Eliana was his new life now.

Eliana said, “I hope you can always be this happy. Don’t let people who don’t understand you affect you.”

Theodore sighed and kissed her lips. “I will.”

In the visiting room, Anthony asked, “Dad, you kept me here alone, Is there something you need to tell me?”

Logan’s voice turned grim. “What’s her name?”

“Eliana.”

“She’s a Burke?”

Anthony nodded. “Theard Grandpa made some kind of agreement with her grandfather years ago. If their families had a grandson and granddaughter, they’d arrange a marriage.”

A distant look crossed Logan’s eyes. “Now I remember. Her father came to see me once. I turned him away at the door, Shows the Burke family isn’t worth worrying about.”

“True, but Theodore loves her,” Anthony said. “More than he ever loved Alice.”

“Really?” Logan raised an eyebrow. “I thought that rebellious son was just putting

an act with some random woman to spite me,”
