Semua Bab Alpha's Regret: Mated with My Ex's Uncle: Bab 31 - Bab 40

Camellia's POVI thought Esmond would disappear for a few days after last night's drama, letting me enjoy a peaceful weekend.But the next morning, I was woken by knocking.Opening the door, I found him holding a bouquet of roses.The flash of hope in his eyes was painfully clear."Cam…" He stepped forward with the roses."What do you want?" I cut him off, irritation sharpening my tone.I wasn't letting him ruin my weekend."Cam, I found out everything about yesterday. I swear it'll never happen again. Has Priscilla always treated you like this? Why didn't you ever tell me?"His question almost made me laugh."We've lived in the same pack for years. Did you need me to spell it out? You grew up with Priscilla—you know exactly how she is."I stared him down until he looked away, guilt written all over his face.My laugh turned bitter."You had three years to notice how she treated me behind your back. Any Omega in the Ironclaw Pack could've told you. You just never cared to ask, didn't

Camellia's POVThe man hurried over to the red-dressed woman, completely ignoring Eugenia and me."Miss Ogilvie, Mr. Doyle is in a meeting, so he sent me."Tilda tilted her chin toward us. "Mark, it's them. They're trying to take the suit I want."Mark turned, ready to speak, but his face paled when he saw Eugenia."Ms. Hawkes…""Who is he?" I whispered, glancing between Eugenia and Mark."Mark Haines. Cliff's assistant," Eugenia said, her voice barely audible.I sucked in a sharp breath.Something about this felt… wrong.Eugenia was Cliff's girlfriend, but this woman was claiming the same title.It reminded me too much of Esmond's betrayal, and I couldn't help but frown.Tilda noticed Mark's hesitation and narrowed her eyes. "Do you know her?"Mark stammered, his eyes darting between Eugenia and Tilda.Eugenia's lips curved into a cold smile. "So, Miss Ogilvie here says h

Camellia's POVAfter dinner, I washed the dishes and grabbed a book to read on the balcony, soaking up the sun.As I flipped through the pages, drowsiness crept in, and I dozed off on the lounge chair.When I woke up, the sky was already dimming.I splashed some water on my face in the bathroom. I was too lazy to cook, so I grabbed my keys and headed out to grab a bite.As I opened the door, I nearly jumped out of my skin—Esmond was standing in the shadows. I instinctively took a step back."Cam, it's me," he said, his voice hoarse, like he'd been standing there all afternoon.I frowned. "What are you doing here, just standing around?""Cam, can't you ever forgive me?"I stayed silent for a moment, then looked at him calmly. "Esmond, when you were cheating on me with Hazel, you must've spent a lot of money and effort on her, huh?""What are you talking about?" He looked genuinely confused.I almost la

Camellia's POVWe chatted for a while longer before hanging up.After putting down my phone, I sighed, feeling a mix of emotions.I glanced at the property deed and bracelet on the table, then casually opened a drawer and tucked them inside before heading to wash up and get some sleep.The Park Avenue apartment was in a prime location, and it didn't take long for a flood of buyers to show interest. Eventually, it sold for $100,000 below market value.Once the legal agreements were signed, the buyer promptly transferred the full amount to me.I kept my promise and paid the real estate agent his commission.He was grinning from ear to ear. "Ms. Sanders, if you ever have friends who want to sell property, remember to call me."Seeing how happy he was, I couldn't help but smile too. "Sure," I replied.When I got home, the first thing I did was take $100,000 and hire a private investigator to tail Hazel.Last time, whe

Camellia's POV"Mr. Dalton, I can handle this myself…" I lowered my gaze, trying to ignore the strange, complicated emotions that had surged within me moments ago.I thought to myself, "Lionel is Esmond's uncle. He probably helped me just now because of Esmond."After rinsing my hands for a while, the burning sensation finally began to fade. I turned off the faucet and glanced back at the lab. It was a mess—shards of glass and broken equipment scattered everywhere. My heart sank, and I couldn't help but press my lips together."Mr. Dalton, let's step outside," I said softly.As we walked out of the lab, I was about to return the jacket to Lionel when I met his icy, piercing gaze.My grip on the jacket tightened unconsciously. In that moment, I felt the overwhelming pressure of an Alpha's dominance bearing down on me, as if the air around us had frozen solid.He radiated intense anger, like a beast on the verge of erupting.And
