yet.

Then, the turning point arrived on a night marked by a fierce argument that left Bella in a storm of emotions.

Ethan, consumed by guilt, became more considerate toward her, halting his relentless quest for Hazel and marrying Bella trying to make it up to her. Gabriel couldn’t help but chuckle in amusement as he witnessed Bella’s predicament. “Who would have known he would still be nampalated and guilt-tripped by you five years after, he mused, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

The man who seemed to take pleasure in Bella’s discomfort, laughed out loud. That’s why he’s with you, isn’t it? Because he feels guilty and sorry,” he taunted, his laughter echoing in the room

Bella’s patience wore thin, and annoyance colored her features. “Stop it,” she snapped, her voice laced with irritation. She refused to let this man’s words undermine her confidence. “I am still Luna,” she declared, her head held high in defiance. A wicked grin played on the man’s l*ps as he advanced towards her, his authoritative presence casting a shadow over her. “Yes, but a fake one,” he asserted, his tone dripping with superiority. “I made you who you are right now, cleaned up your messes. Even when you framed Hazel and faked the mate bond too. I did all that for you,” he stated firmly, towering above her

He relished in the discomfort he caused, his laughter ringing out. “I wonder what the Alpha’s reaction would be when he finds out he’s been fooled all along. Wow! It’s going to be wild,” he added, his amusement growing.

Bella’s complexion paled, and her frustration boiled within her. “What do you want?” she asked in a panic, her hands clenched at her sides. She yearned to erase the smugness from his face and make him disappear.

“What do I want?” he repeated, his amusement vanishing as he gripped her wrist forcefully, pinning her to the door. “This was all supposed to be for revenge, Abigail,” he spat, his tone filled with resentment. “But you became all caught up in playing Luna. You love being the expensive, classy wife of a prominent man, don’t you? You forgot all about everything.” Bella’s voice wavered as fear crept in. I didn’t, she protested, her eyes wide with fright.

His anger flared, and he shook her fiercely. “What I want is very simple, he declared, his eyes filled with rage. “What I want is for Ethan and everything that belongs to him to burn” His grip on Bella intensified, his voice dripping with malice as he uttered his ominous desires.

“That is what I want,” he muttered, his head jerking from side to side, his gaze fixed on some unseen specter in the room. His crazed demeanor sent shivers down Bella’s spine, making her back away until she collided with the wall.

“What I want. What I want,” he repeated maniacally, his laughter filling the room. Bella, overwhelmed by fear, couldn’t help but cry out, “Stop it!”

Ignoring her cries, he continued his senseless ramblings, appearing utterly unhinged. Then, suddenly, he paused, fixing his vacant gaze on her for what felt like an eternity while she remained frozen in place. It was as if he had momentarily snapped out of his madness.

Blinking several times, he seemed to regain his composure, taking a deep breath and closing his eyes. “I’ll be watching you. Every single time he declared before turning and vanishing from her presence.

presence was akin to that of a runway model, effortlessly commanding attention and respect.

With a delicate touch, she adjusted her wristwatch while hailing a taxi. As she settled into the vehicle, she retrieved her laptop, meticulously making final adjustments to her proposal. The taxi navigated through the city streets, finally coming to halt in front of the impressive Tesco Empire building Hazel exited the taxi gracefully, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and anxiety. Although this was her second visit, the grandeur of the building never ceased to amaze her

She reached for her phone to call Chloe, her colleague and friend, who had been tasked with securing their spot at the company. However, just as she was about to dial, a tap on her shoulder startled her. Turning around, she met Chloe’s eager

face

“Why are you out here?” Hazel asked, a hint of nervousness in her voice

The competition was fierce, Hazel recognized industry giants like Scarlet Innovation and Big Bang in the running

“We’re facing some serious competition, Chloe replied anxiously, the weight of their task evident in her tone.

As they entered the bustling reception area, representatives from various companies were vying for attention, their folders filled with proposals. Hazel felt a surge of anxiety. The competition was formidable, and their dreams hinged on winning

this contract.

Approaching the front desk, they were greeted by a professional-looking woman who inquired about the purpose of their

visit.

“J.T. Interview,” Hazel explained succinctly.

The woman nodded and collected their folders before leading them to an elevator, each of them assigned a serial number, Company representatives were being summoned into the boardroom to present their offers, and the tension in the air was palpable.

Hazel couldn’t shake the unease settling in her stomach. They had secured a similar contract before but lost it due to unforeseen circumstances. She worried about the impending meeting with the CEO, fearing that their hard work over the past eight months might go to waste.

Hours passed, and finally, a company staff member exited the boardroom.

“Starlight,” she called, and both Hazel and Chloe stood up, heading for the door of the boardroom. However, nothing could have prepared Hazel for the sight that awaited her inside. Seated at the head of the table was her ex-husband, Ethan. Her hands trembled, and she inadvertently dropped the things she was carrying, including the prototype of their design, which shattered on the floor.
