Alpha's Regret: False Mate True Luna novel Chapter 160

The wind swirled between us, everything around us deathly quiet, as if even the leaves had stopped rustling.

I was stunned for several seconds before coming back to my senses, staring at that face I knew so well, not knowing how to respond. Finally, I could only say quietly: “I’m sorry, might not be able to right now…”

Before I could finish, he interrupted me..

“Not with you.”

My pupils suddenly contracted, and his voice crashed down on me, cold and piercing: “Do you think a man would choose to have children with a woman who wants to betray her partner and is trying every way to leave him?”

Without waiting for my response, he strode quickly into the villa.

I stood there in a daze, my chest feeling tight.

He returned to the room, threw his coat on the sofa, extremely irritated.

Only when I rejected him in that moment did he realize how ridiculous he was. I had actually naively thought he wanted to have a child with me.

I stood outside the door, his words echoing repeatedly in my mind:

“Do you think a man would choose to have children with a woman who wants to betray her partner and is trying every way to leave him?”

I slowly walked into the living room, standing alone in the empty space, the silence making me panic.

I didn’t want to stay alone in the living room, so I eventually returned to my room.

Picking up my phone, I opened the music player and selected a soft instrumental piece, hoping to calm myself down.

“Boom–!”

A thunderclap split the sky outside the window, lightning instantly illuminating the entire room.

Soon after, heavy rain poured down, as if the sky that had been suppressed for so long had finally torn open.

I stared out the window in a daze, not knowing how much time had passed, my eyelids gradually growing heavy, almost falling asleep.

Just then, the sound of a car pulling in interrupted me, followed by the doorbell ringing.

Chapter 160

At this hour, who would come?

I didn’t know if Ferris was asleep, but I still put on my coat and went out.

The moment I opened the door, I was completely stunned-

Ashley.

She was still wearing hospital clothes, her neck wrapped in gauze, standing in the rain like a piece of paper drained of color, her face pale and her whole body soaked.

She hadn’t expected me to open the door, was stunned for a while, then asked: “Where’s Ferris?”

“I don’t know.”

I had no obligation to tell her anything, and stepped aside to leave.

Just then, Ashley saw Ferris coming from the other end of the corridor, suddenly grabbed my hand, and in the next second–she fell backward!

She tumbled heavily down the stairs from the entrance!

With a “thud,” there was a muffled sound from the marble floor, as if her head had cracked.

Before I could react, Ferris came rushing from behind and pushed me aside.

He rushed over quickly, looking at Ashley lying on the ground, his face instantly turning ashen–blood was flowing from her head, washed into a mess by the rain.

He immediately took out his phone to call for an ambulance.

I stood there, having just been pushed by him, staggering before steadying myself.

Before I could recover, I heard Ashley’s weak voice: “I… why did you push me?”

My breathing caught.

She was truly skilled at framing others, never failing to succeed.
