Chapter 72


    Chapter 72


    Hunter:


    I had been restless ever since I heard that my son was now lying to me, all for the sake of a happily


    ever after for his mother. Things had escted, and now I realized that for my n to work. I


    needed to act quickly.


    She was out on a date with him. Do you think she will stop for anything now? She seems to be


    enjoying his mate bond, Net was right. Even I had noticed the way she had cheered up after finding


    a new mate.


    I didn’t understand why I couldn’t get a second chance at a mate. I should have gotten one too so


    that I could have annoyed


    her.


    But we already have her friend as a chosen mate, and I don’t think she is even jealous to see us


    together,’ Net reminded me that Reyna doesn’t really show any jealousy when she sees us


    together.


    There is no way she doesn’t feel any jealousy. She is just good at masking it, I scoffed, holding the


    steering wheel with pressure.


    “Well, then she certainly has an odd way of showing it. You can fool yourself, but I won’t bet on it.


    She is in love with her new mate. She has moved on, and we have lost every single battle, whether


    it was the battle of love or taking custody of our son,” Net uttered, making me narrow my eyes on


    the road.


    THE


    “No! I haven’t lost anything yet. If I can get someone with me who would make her feel jealous, I


    was interrupted by Net’s tauntingugh.


    You should sleep with Polline, and even then Reyna wouldn’t mind it, that was it. Net didn’t


    understand that I could still feel the love we once shared.


    I was angry with her, but there was no way she had entirely moved on from me.


    “I am not going to do that. Making her jealous and rubbing my rtionship against her face is what? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    small achievements are. I am going to aim big now, I hissed and parked the car in the parking lot of


    my mansion. Besides, something new needed to happen,


    However, I didn’t go inside because I knew Tara hade back after staying at the hotel for a few


    days. Her father had been calling me to make me forgive her. I never wanted her back but only


    allowed it to happen because I had a n.


    “She will be waiting for us, Net sighed tiredly. It had been exhausting for us to face her and not feel


    anything for her. There was something very unattractive about Tara. I didn’t even want to touch her


    with a ten-foot pole.


    ‘I don’t understand why cant she get a hint, I muttered under my breath. That b*ucking roof.


    Ever since my son told me what she did to him, I hated her even more. And what’s worse is that I


    remembered once she g


    gut me he drunk, probably expecting me to sleep with her. But even when I was drunk, I refused


    to touch her, and it annoyed


    her a lot


    “Hello I called Jeffery because he was the one who had been doing my dirty work for me.


    Alpha King Hunter, he said from the other side.


    “You have been very busy for thest two days. Are you alright?” asked as I remembered he had


    been taking time off here and there.


    I never pried into his private life because he was the type who barely wanted to talk about anything


    personal. And I respected that.

    “Yeah, I am fine,” he replied slyly


    In


    70%


    never asked him, but I could tell that he was having some troubles with his mate. The one he never


    introduced to anyone.


    “So, did you do what I had asked you to do?” I questioned with enthusiasm, hoping he could tell me


    what Samuel had been nning.


    Jeffery was the kind of guy anybody would befriend, and Samuel did too. He would usually ask him


    to n romantic dates for Reyna or book hotels for the two of them. That’s how I got to know about


    theirst n. But tonight, Samuel must have taken her somewhere very private, hence I couldn’t


    know.


    “Actually–Jeffery took a brief pause that kind of worried me. He was a very talkative guy, so


    whenever he was taking a break, it meant trouble.


    “Tell me what is going on? What did you find out?” I insisted with a heavy heart. I didn’t know if


    Samuel had nned a trip with Reyna, and I might not even see her or my son for days. If that


    happens, I need to be prepared to ruin their trip.


    “I found out what he had been up to these days, and I think–you will not like it, Jeffery now made it


    clear that I was right. They had to be going on vacations somewhere. He really thought he could


    take her away from me, and I wouldn’t let that happen. That too with my son too.


    I


    “Just tell me, there is nothing I cannot deal with,” I sighed, leaning back in the chair.


    “Samuel has been nning for the wedding, as he said that, my heart sank in my chest.


    “Huh? Whose wedding? Is he taking Reyna to someone else’s wedding?” The shock was so much


    that I couldn’t evenprehend what he truly meant. I just assumed it was someone else’s


    wedding. It had to be. I mean, Reyna was married once; why would she want to marry again? But


    my doubt was right.


    “Your highness, he is nning a wedding with Reyna. The two are getting married in a week.” He


    then further exined, and whatever confidence or hopes I had in my ns withered away.


    “Alpha king?” Jeffery said from the other side, but my tongue had rolled back into my throat. shes


    of my wedding with Reyna yed before my memory, turning my vision blurred.


    “Hunter?” Jeffery raised his voice to get my attention better this time, “Are you alright?”


    I hated how upset he sounded for me. I was not someone he should be having sympathy for. I


    should have been victorious this time, but I guess I had taken too much time in ying myst card.


    And since it was thest card. I decided to keep it till the veryst moment. I will strike them out of


    the blue, leaving no chance to fight back.


    “I have never been more fine.” My response meant one thing; finally, the big n woulde into


    y. I will no longer waste any more time now.


    “Are you sure? I mean, I gave you the worst news, Jeffery must have been thinking I have lost my


    mind.


    “Oh no! I have heard worse news. I mean, being married to Reyna gave me some bad news; this is


    nothingpared to those,” I forced a happy tone,forting him, but I know he knew me, and he


    knew there was a huge turmoil inside me.


    “I will see you in the office tomorrow,” I said and hung up the call. Not because I had to rush inside


    the mansion, but because I needed to call someone.


    “Hello! Elder Cale! I need to speak to you about the custody of my child,” I mumbled into the phone


    with a smirk covering my lips. Let’s see who suffers and who enjoys it now.


    “Oh hello, that is a ummm–sudden change of decision,” he uttered in bewilderment and I knew why.


    Last time, I told him that I didn’t want to take full custody.


    “Well, things have changed, 1 muttered.
