Alpha Your Warrior Ex-Wife is Back (by Aurora Starling) novel Chapter 113

Claire’s POV

The laughter of Daphne echoed from downstairs. It made me feel very uneasy, I knew I had to talk with someone about this.

I stood just beyond the corridor’s shadow, the children clutching at my hands, their curious eyes flicking toward the grand foyer where Gideon and Justin had been moments ago.

Daphne was gone now, her triumphant voice lingering like poison in the air. Even from a distance, I could feel her smugness—it clung to the walls like a heavy scent, impossible to shake.

“Miss Warrior?,” Leo whispered softly, tugging at my hand. “Are you alright? You look pale?” I forced a small smile, brushing a hand over his hair. “I am alright little cub, just a bit tired.”

Nova tilted her head. “Mommy don't worry Miss Daphne is gone for good, we don't have to worry about her anymore.”

I looked at the children with a small smile and gently patted their head knowing I can't make the children worry “Yes, she is gone now, but now it's time for both of you to go to bed.”

The children nodded obediently and yawned sleepily. Their trust in me was absolute—a warmth that both comforted and terrified me.

I held their hands gently and guided them to their rooms. “You two go inside and rest, alright? Don’t open the door for anyone until I say so.”

They both obeyed without protest, slipping into their shared room as I closed the door behind them.

I entered my room and sighed then my hands trembled slightly as I reached for my phone. The events of Justin's arrival, Daphne's fake story to manipulate Justin, the way Gideon’s eyes had darkened when Daphne smiled—thinking about everything was giving me headache and the thoughts in my head were not stopping, so I decided to call a person who can tell me what I should do next.

I took a deep breath and dialled a familiar number which can help me focus. The line rang one time then Twice.

Then finally he picked up— “Hello,Claire?”
