Alpha's Regret: False Mate True Luna novel Chapter 146

On the way to White Star County, heavy rain fell, as if the entire sky was crashing down.

1 sat in the passenger seat, inadvertently glancing at l’erris’s handsome, cold profile. My breathing caught, and I quickly looked away toward the blurred scenery outside the window.

To be honest, when I didn’t truly possess him before, I always felt Ferris was an unapproachable person, like an iceberg – aloof and unreachable.

But now… I had touched every inch of his body.

There’s a saying that no matter how cold a man is, once there’s physical intimacy, the relationship changes.

During a brief stop at a service area, he suddenly took my hand.

“I’m not used to you being so quiet.” he said.

I turned to look at him, only to hear him continue: “You used to have endless things to say.”

Listening to this, I couldn’t help but smile bitterly.

“Then you must not remember what you once said – that you didn’t like me talking too much.”

He paused, as if not expecting me to say this.

The atmosphere in the car suddenly became heavy and awkward. Realizing I might have said something wrong and upset him again, I deliberately tried to change the subject.

“After we pass this service area, there’s a maple forest ahead. It’s the time when maple leaves are reddest now, and maple leaves in the rain look beautiful.”

It was early autumn now, darkness came earlier than in summer, and the temperature was gradually cooling, especially in the rain, making everything seem more desolate and quiet,

When our car passed through that maple forest, it was evening. The sky was gray and heavy, but we could still see maple leaves falling in the wind and rain, covering the ground in fiery red.

In that instant, Ferris looked at me and saw a long–lost smile appear on my face.

At that moment, I seemed to become again that simple, innocent girl from before, the one who had just met him and wanted to get close to him with a heart full of joy.

After passing through the maple forest, the sky completely darkened, and the scenery outside the window was no longer visible.

Chapter 146

ter/146

I picked up my phone wanting to browse something, but found it was dead. I had no choice but to plug it into the car

charger.

At this moment, Ferris suddenly handed me his phone: “Use this.”

I hesitated: “No password?”

He didn’t speak, just looked at me. Only then did I slowly take it.

His phone was very clean, the desktop simple. Apart from work–related apps and communication software, there was almost nothing, not even a music player.

I randomly opened the browser, wanting to casually look at news.

As soon as I opened it, I saw trending topic number six- Ashley publicly apologizes, admits to plagiarism.

My eyes suddenly focused, my heartbeat stuttering.

A few days ago, Ferris had advised Cynthia not to pursue it further. How could Ashley now voluntarily apologize publicly and offer substantial compensation?

This wasn’t his style.

While I was puzzled, the car had already entered White Star County.

Ferris had already arranged a hotel.

He stopped the car and said to me: “Let’s rest today.”

As we walked into the hotel together, I couldn’t help asking: “I just saw the news on your phone, Ashley publicly apologized?”

Not just an apology, but a substantial compensation amount.

But Ferris wasn’t surprised at all.

He said indifferently: “You were right last time, plagiarism should have consequences.”

He didn’t mention that I was Moon Gauze, didn’t ask questions. He knew everything, yet said nothing.

I suddenly realized he had really changed.

When entering the room, I discovered he had only booked one room.
