Semua Bab I Don't Remember Loving You, Alpha: Bab 71 - Bab 80

ElaineI leaned in closer to Tristan, my eyes locked onto his, unflinching. I bore into his soul, the intensity of my gaze daring him to finally confront the truth. My heart pounded with a mix of frustration and determination, my clenched fists trembling at my sides, hoping against hope that this time he would find the courage to accept reality."You were never a husband to me, Tristan. Everyone knows that. Don’t even try to create fake scenarios in your head about being a good spouse because you are not. You loathed me, remember? Many times, you chose to neglect me and be with your mistress instead. You've pushed me over the edge. I won’t let you push me further toward my demise. I am done being your doormat. I want nothing more to do with you."After that, I walked away from Tristan, moving quickly to put as much space between us as possible. Each step was a deliberate attempt to escape, feeling a mixture of relief and lingering tension in my mind. Suddenly, I heard a voice from behi

ElaineFear gripped me, paralyzing me where I stood. I tried to move, but my feet felt glued to the floor, my knees trembling. Tristan was getting closer, and I couldn’t think of anything to do except close my eyes and brace for the worst.Oh, shoot. He looks angry now.I admit, seeing Tristan angry and ferocious filled me with fear. I mean, come on! What could a she-wolf like me have against a formidable alpha like him? Tristan may have been a jerk and stupid in his thinking, but in battle, he was an alpha for a reason.Suddenly, another voice broke through the tension.“Hey! Leave Elaine alone!”Trevor rushed to my side, confronting Tristan. Tristan glared at Trevor, his breath shallow.“What the hell are you doing? This is between me and my wife. Stay out of this.”But Trevor refused to move and instinctively positioned himself between me and Tristan. Tristan showed his teeth and mocked,“You think you’re strong enough to stand your ground?”“If I were you, I wouldn’t do anything fo

ElaineI was caught off guard, shocked by his statement. Fear of failing to grasp success washed over me. But with the remaining determination and courage, I cleared my throat once again and continued in a louder voice."I am here as a representative of Roma Aesthetics to discuss a potential collaboration with Everett Innovations on our new marketing campaign. We believe that partnering with your esteemed company would greatly enhance the impact and reach of our initiative, and it would be an honor to have your expertise and innovation driving this project forward.""Ahh," Mr. Everett responded with a single word. Then he turned his attention toward the pile of papers in front of him. As I went on with my short report, he only gave me a few nods and an uninterested look. I still continued up to the last moment, despite the growing lump in my throat and the sting of tears welling up in my eyes."Thank you for your time, Mr. Everett," I said, my voice trembling. I felt hopeless, thinking

Elaine“LEO!!!” I rushed to hug the kid, my heart aching at the sight of him. Lyndon and Trevor’s jaws dropped when they saw him too. Lyndon looked devastated, clearly upset about his grandson’s current situation. The kid was very dirty, probably hadn’t taken a proper shower for months. His arms were thin and looked very unhealthy, likely from not having enough food. Leo hugged me back tightly.“It’s been a while. Where have you been?” I asked excitedly.Leo started telling stories with the innocence only a child could have. “I went to Fishville to work. Someone asked me to run some errands and in return—” Leo pulled out some money from his pocket and showed it to me with a bright smile. “The kind man gave me 5 bucks. It was honest work and I’m happy about it.”Leo looked so satisfied and content with his little earnings that it broke my heart. I smiled at his innocence but couldn’t help feeling pity for the poor child. Just then, Trevor approached me from behind and started coughing

ElaineThe day of the party came in an instant. I found myself standing on the doorsteps of the hotel, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. I read the huge sign on the side of the door.“Mystic Hotel… This is it,” I whispered to myself.I had arrived just in time at the venue. The hotel seemed incredibly elegant just by looking at the entrance. I took a deep breath and put on my best smile, feeling a rush of confidence as I stepped inside. I headed straight to the front office to ask for some information, and one of the employees kindly offered to lead the way towards the venue.I boarded the elevator, and the hotel employee pressed the button for the last floor, the rooftop. Excitement crawled over my skin at the thought of the view and the elegance of the party. Important wolves would be attending, so Roma Aesthetics had to give their best. I was so grateful Mr. Smith had handled everything. It was more than I could have ever expected.The elevator door opened with a soft chi
