A LUNA ON CONTRACT のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

SCARLETT Later that Day. “Clean your mouth! You lie a lot!” I teased Callum elbowing him playfully and we both bursted out laughing. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!” He mumbled raising his hands briefly in surrender before reaching forward to push the door open for me to step out. We just finished a meeting with the shareholders at my father’s company and formally introduced me as the new chairperson to them and trust my mother to be on her last nerve as all that happened. “You said you came here for me, turned out you came because of the shareholders meeting!” I muttered as we made our way to the car. He chuckled loudly and I raised the corner of my lips in a sneer at him. “That’s what the dictionary calls coincidence honey,” he said and I raised my nose at him. “I hear you,” he gently reached forward, grabbed the handle of the door knob open for me to step in.“Easy my Queen,” he muttered as I stepped into the car and I couldn’t help but smile. As soon as I got in,

SCARLETT Later in the Night. 10:45pmCallum and Kian stood side by side beside each other in front of the grave where Kael had just been buried. I, Amy, Nolan and Annabeth stood next to each other and behind them, we were all dressed in black, Callum and Kian held onto themselves tightly. It was the first time I’ve seen both of them cry. Callum especially, it was very obvious that he loved his brother very much even with their differences. It’s just so painful how it takes death to make us realize how much we love and how much we should have shown it while they’re still alive. My grip around Amy’s hands tightened, It was Kian I pitied the most, I know how bad I felt when my father died, I can’t even try to imagine how he must be feeling, dealing with the loss of his twin for that matter. The burial had ended few minutes ago, but Kian and Callum decided to stay back and we just could not leave without them. Amy tugged lightly at my hand and I slowly turned and looked down at her

SCARLETTLater, 5:00pm Annabeth slowly disengaged from our hug, she stepped back, and I smiled at her. I just got back to pick a few things to visit the orphanage with, I called her to meet up with me, so we’d go together. “I didn’t realize I could miss you this much,” she mumbled and my smile widened. “I know right. I called you quite a number of times but you weren’t always available,” I said as I slowly took her hand and we turned and began to walk out of the pack house. She sighed deeply as she rolled her eyes to the back of her head. “My phone and I, we’re not very good friends. Even now I don’t think I took it with me when I left the house,” she said, I chuckled lightly and shook my head slowly.“You still haven’t changed,” I said and she raised her brows tilting her head slightly to the side. “I’ll be more mindful of it now,” she said. “Should I put all of it in?” A maid asked softly and we turned to her simultaneously. “Yes please, have other people join you to put eve

SCARLETT I don’t know how I found myself in the building but I just realized I was in it, I walked through the hallway trying to find my way out but I keep going back to the same spot I started from. My heart started to beat a little bit more than normal, I grabbed the second door to my left and pushed it open. The room was smelly and dark save for a small colored light bulb, I slowly walked in to see a little girl sitting in the corner, I really couldn’t get her full appearance but she was definitely the little girl from my dreams, her legs tied to her hands, her head dropped occasionally, she was sleeping but still whimpering even in her sleep. I slowly began to approach her, but before I could get to her the door bursted open and my mother stormed in. My eyes narrowed in confusion on seeing my mother, the little girl jolted awake and raised her head, immediately she saw my mother she began to cry. The tears tugged at my heart, like I could feel her emotion raw in my heart, I felt

MEANWHILEWILLOW BROOKE, 4:30pm CALLUM “Hi my love, how are you doing?!” I asked as soon as the call connected. Scarlett exhaled deeply and I heard the door slam shut. “I’m doing great, what about you?!” She asked, I slowly let go of the pen I was holding, dropped it on the tablet and slowly leaned back into my chair. “Talk to me honey, what’s going on?!” I asked her immediately, a beat of silence followed before her voice came again. “We checked every of my mom’s property Myla was able to find, but we didn’t find any tangible thing there,”“Myla is sure there’s someone else my mother is using and if we can find this person, whoever it is, then it’ll make this easier,” she explained, I sighed and crossed my legs slowly.“Considering the kind of person your mother is, obviously she won’t hide in plain sight, Some months ago I had Nolan find a list of secret warehouse that she owned and was properties she’s secretly affiliated with, we can work with that,” I said to her. “Really?
