Moonlit Betrayal (Alpha Rick)

Chapter 105



Chapter 105 

When Lola saw Ethan, she said, “Ethan, I heard that Jenna was awake. I’ve got some free time these days, so I figured I’d stop by the hospital to keep her company after breakfast.” 

“No!” Mason almost blurted out a refusal. 

Lola was slightly taken aback and looked at Mason in confusion. Dad, why not? Isn’t it a bit wrong if none of us visit Jenna 

when she’s hurt! 

“And even if Jenna has made mistakes, she’s still a part of the family. Don’t any of you worry about her?” 

Mason’s face remained stern, while Jasmine, with a softer heart, sighed softly. “Sweetheart, I know you’re worried about your sister, but you should also take care of your own health. I think it’s better not to go. 

Lola had long sensed something wrong with them but had never spoken it aloud. 

I’m fine, really. I’ve been resting at home these days and I’ve almost fully recovered. I may not know what Jenna did to upset you all, but she is still my sister. Let me go see her, Lola insisted 

Instinct told her that there must be a secret her family was keeping from her, a secret Jenna might know. 

“Alright, Layla, you are really considerate. If you want to go, then go. I’ll take you there. I don’t have much else go with you. 

Ethan spoke up, and Mason and Jasmine were relieved, With Elian by her side, Layla wouldn’t face any harm

“Great, just stick close to Layla and keep her safe,” Jasmine instructed with a meaningful undertone. 

to do, so I’ll 

Lola didn’t understand. It was only a trip to the hospital to visit her sister. It seemed a bit overprotective to keep her safe and stick close to her. 

She kept these doubts to herself, not showing a hint of them. 

The car stopped outside the hospital. Lola glanced at Ethan, who seemed preoccupied. 

“Layla, Jenna has done things to hurt you in the past. Mom and Dad really dislike it, which is why they didn’t want you two 

to meet. 

“If Jenna says anything strange to you, don’t believe it all at once. Make sure to ask me first, okay?” 

Ethan still didn’t trust Jenna and decided to give Lola a heads–up 

“Hurt me? What did Jenna do in the past that makes you all so wary and upset?” 

Ethan didn’t want to lie to Lola anymore. Once a lie started, it required another and another to keep it going. 

“You were in a coma because she pushed you down the stairs. That’s why they have always been wary of her. I hope you’ll be cautious around her too. Don’t believe everything she says” 

Lola nodded slightly. ‘Did Jenna really do that? she pondered. Why did something feel off?” 

“Jenna, I’ve come to see you.” Seeing the girl who looked exactly like her, Lola felt a pang of sorrow in her heart. 

If what Ethan said was true, and Jenna deliberately hurt her, then there was hardly anyone left in the world she could trust. 

“Layla, I never thought I’d see you after all these years. You’ve grown up. I’ve missed you so much.” Jenna looked genuinely 

excited to see Lola

Seeing Jenna covered in sears, Lola couldn’t find it in her heart to hate her. 

“How’s your body? Why are you end up like this?” 

Jenna glanced at Ethan, seemingly seeking his opinion, 

“She has been wandering outside all these years, crossing paths with some rough characters. Some ruthless businessmen beat her up. Ethan said, not revealing the whole truth. 

If he said it was Dominick who had hurt Jenna, Lola would likely grow even more distant from him. 

Jenna paused for a moment, and she nodded a bit awkwardly. 

“Yes, they were the ones who beat me.” 

However, Jenna’s reluctant demeanor was too obvious, and Lola noticed something was off right away. 

“Layla, you’re getting more and more beautiful, unlike me. I’ve been drifting outside for so long and look how I’ve ended up.” 

Ethan gave her a look. “You only have yourself to blame for what happened to Layla. If you hadn’t pushed her down the stairs, your life wouldn’t be any different from hers now. This is the consequence of the mistake you made. 

Jenna was a bit stunned, realizing Ethan was hinting at the role she played in Lola’s eyes. 

“I know I messed up. I was young and reckless, and I did things that hurt you. I’m sorry, truly, and I’ll spend my life making if up to you. 

“Layla, my dear, can you forgive me for what I’ve done? I swear, from now on, I won’t do anything to hurt you again.” 

Jenna’s remorse left Lola unable to harbor resentment. These were issues of the past, and now, they seemed distant, barely stirring any emotion in her. 

Jenna, we’re family. Don’t say that. We’re going to live together from now on. What you need to do now is to take care of yourself.” 

Jenna rubbed her stomach. “Layla, have you eaten yet? 

Lola could tell Jenna was hungry and glanced at Ethan. “Ethan, Jenna probably hasn’t eaten anything since this morning. Could you find something for her? She’s injured and needs nutrition.” 

Ethan frowned slightly, I could have the bodyguards do it.” 

“Come on, Jenna is your sister, and she’s hurt. Shouldn’t you, her brother, be the one looking after her? I don’t trust leaving it all to the bodyguards. What if they mess up something?” 

Lola playfully pushed Ethan. “Hurry up, Ethan. Please, don’t let Jenna go hungry.” 

Ethan couldn’t deal with Lola, but he was also worried about Jenna and shot her a meaningful look. 

“Alright, I’ll grab breakfast and some supplements. Jenna, you just stay put, okay? It’s dangerous out there, and you’re safest here. Don’t take any unnecessary risks.” 

His words sounded like a reminder for Jenna not to wander off, but in reality, it was a warning. When alone with Lola, Jenna must be careful about what she says. 

“I get it, Ethan. I know what I should and shouldn’t do. Don’t worry, Jenna assured. 

Ethan finally left, feeling reassured. 

Now, only Jenna and Lola remained in the hospital room. 

The look in Jenna’s eyes shifted suddenly, as if she had become a different person, watching Lola with a complicated look. 

‘She really has lost her memory, looking so innocent, Jenna thought. 

Once Ethan was completely gone, Lola’s smile gradually faded. 

“You have something to say to me, right?” 

Jenna’s expression froze, staring at Lola in disbelief. 

Lola turned away, her eyes a mix of unspoken feelings. 

Jenna was taken aback. She hadn’t expected the seemingly naive Lola to see right through her intentions.
