Chapter 1861
She flashed me a quick, soothing smile.
In the ensuing silence, Caleb spoke abruptly.
“At the end of the day, I don’t care if this child is mine or not.
I won’t raise it.
But if you agree to an abortion, I’ll offer you significant compensation.
”
Alexandria’s tears intensified.
Clutching her stomach, she took a shaky step back.
Her voice, though firm, trembled with desperation.
“No! This baby is everything to me.
T won’t abort.
I won’t!”
Fresh tears welled up in Alexandria’s eyes.
Just as she seemed on the verge of fainting, her father, Neal, materialized, his face gloomy.
Neal caught Alexandria as she swayed and glared at Caleb.
His voice dripped with sarcasm.
“Caleb, leading the pack doesn’t entitle you to humiliate us.
My daughter lacks nothing.
She doesn’t need to latch onto you for a better life, unlike some.
”
I knew he was jabbing at me.
I almost laughed out of rage.
Never before had I witnessed such arrogance from the father of a house-wrecker.
Before I could retort, Jenifer intervened.
“Since you’re rich already, my son is clearly not worthy of your daughter.
I suggest you take her home immediately.
Neither Alexandria nor the child has any claim on Caleb from this point forward.
”
Neal’s face darkened.
Jenifer and Caleb’s dismissal caught him off guard.
I looked at him in dark amusement.
I was honestly confused where he’d gotten the audacity to disrespect us like this.
“Caleb,” Neal thundered, “as leader of the pack, you’re displaying a shocking lack of responsibility! You
fathered a child and now refuse to take accountability!”
His icy glare swept across Caleb, Jenifer, and me before continuing, “Listen well, you can’t shirk this duty! The child belongs to Caleb, and your entire family will answer for this!”
Caleb’s expression contorted further, his fists clen
ching tightly.
Neal’s tirade continued, his finger pointed at me.
“And you! This is all your fault, bitch! Divorce Caleb immediately and make way for my daughter, the rightful Luna!”
Jenifer stepped in front of me, her eyes blazing.
“Who are you to insult my daughter-in-law?”
Neal was stunned by her imposing presence.
He immediately fell silent.
Caleb snapped out of his daze and glared at Alexandria.
“Is this your plan? Get close to me, get pregnant, and use the baby to become Luna? Clever, I’ll give you that.
”
Alexandria trembled under his gaze.
Caleb’s voice dripped with sarcasm.
“You two are quite ambitious.
So you want to take control of the entire Thorn Edge Pack?”
Alexandria shook her head rapidly.
“No! Everything was voluntary! I love you; there’s no plan!”
Caleb’s icy stare remained fixed on her.
Alexandria shoved Neal repeatedly, gesturing for him to leave.
