All Chapters of Divorcing The Alpha: Now He Won't Let Me Go: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

Keegan’s POVI watch with an aching heart as Lillian slips out of my grasp and out of my sight. I don’t know how long I have been standing at the porch of that old house, just staring at the empty dirt road of this outskirt, where she turns her back on me again and walks away.The sky is dark, and so are my surroundings, but things never feel so clear as today.I owe Lillian so much more than I think I do.After a few hours, I lost count. I start to walk back to my pack in a slow manner, as I feel like my legs are made of steel from how heavy it is. Or maybe it’s the heaviness that’s gripping my heart, being reflected in it.My hand holds the knob of the house where I used to live with Lillian, feeling its coldness through my palms.Is this how cold she feels when she’s all alone here?As I push the door open, the echo of Lillian’s voice keeps ringing in my head. The look in her eyes, the trembling of her shoulders, the tears on her cheeks… It all burns into my memory, that clenches m

Keegan’s POV“Keegan, wait–”It’s Sienna. She’s calling out to me, but I continue climbing the stairs like I don’t hear anything, and continue walking inside.My boots echo down my office, each step heavier than the last.The weight of everything hangs over my chest. Lillian’s broken voice and the truth behind the death of our pup bring turmoil within me, threatening to crush every piece of me as the guilt claws at my chest.I cross my office and shift my chair to stare outside through the window, but I end up staring into the dim space, unsure of what I am even looking at in the first place.Peace? A distraction? No… Maybe silence. Silence that Sienna can’t even let me have as she enters the office right after me, carefully closing the door behind her.I can feel her presence and hear her footsteps, but I keep my back to her and act like she doesn’t exist.“I know this is hard,” she says softly, stepping closer from behind me, her shadow looming over.I feel her hand putting weight

Lillian’s POVStanding in the middle of my small, cosy living room, being surrounded by laughter, food, and the occasional toast in my name, I feel a bit dazed as if I am watching someone else’s life.Thousands of emotions tags in my heart. Is this really mine now?I have friends, a new home, and a rising career.Everything is going well and moving in the right direction.And yet… It still weirdly feels like there is something missing.As if reminded of something, my hands subconsciously move to my stomach, where the emptiness still echoes within me like a scar carved into my soul. My pup…My hands tightening on the glass of beer I am holding, I think silently while my eyes dart to the window. “Where are you now, Mom? What have you really done? Why did you do it in the first place?”Despite the loud chattering and cheering around me, the unanswered questions keep repeating in my mind like a broken record, blurring out some of their words.I am still drowning in my own thoughts when a

Keegan’s POVThis time, I’ll face her with answers and not empty words.With determination filling up my chest, I slide my phone back into my pocket and face Dom with pursed lips and knitted brows. “Let’s go.”Leading him, I stride along the company hallway with long strides and a cold demeanour. I can feel the gaze of my employees and how cautious they are going out of my way in fear, while Dom is following right behind me and making announcements through his tablet.When we arrive outside the company, the car is already parked and the valet is waiting outside with the doors open and keys ready to be handed over to Dom.“Moonlight Casino.” That’s the only thing I mutter as I get in and close the door with a straight face, letting Dom drive as fast as he can.As soon as we arrive, we are greeted by the luxurious yet trashy vibe of the place. The blinking lights, the pop music, the sour smell of alcohol and the distasteful scent of cigarettes, together with the desperation and lust thic

Lillian’s POV“You were never my daughter.”I stagger backwards upon hearing her words, every word echoing nonstop to my ears and slicing through me like a blade.“W-what… What do you mean?” My voice comes out almost like a whisper as I stare back at the woman who raised me, but I can barely recognise her. She becomes smug and looks at me with that annoying grin and cold eyes as she flatly repeats, “You were never my daughter.”Leaning forward, her elbows on her knees with her thumb and index finger holding her chin, she adds, “And I never wanted you to be.”If I am in disbelief earlier from her words, I am left speechless now. It’s as if all my vocabulary has been erased from my brain and vanishes into thin air.I just look at her with my pounding heart, all the past flashing back into me. But despite the long years of how badly she treats me, what repeats on my mind over and over again are those good days we had with each other.With my breathing hitch, I swallow the lump in my thro
