บททั้งหมดของ Too Late To Take Me Back Alpha : บทที่ 11 - บทที่ 20

Scarlett’s POVThe ride back home was quiet.I sat beside the car window while the city lights flashed past me one after another.My mind was still filled with everything that happened tonight.Killian’s humiliation, the investors, and Alpha Dominic.Goddess.Just thinking about him again made my heartbeat strange.I frowned slightly at myself and quickly pushed the thought away.No.I am not going to think about him. This marriage was only business.Nothing more.Henry sat silently in the front seat while two other cars followed behind us closely.The deeper we drove into the quiet neighborhood, the calmer everything became.Soon, the black gates of my new house slowly opened.The car drove inside smoothly before finally stopping in front of the mansion.I looked outside quietly.The house looked beautiful under the soft night lights. Elegant and beautiful mFor the first time in years… It actually felt like home.Henry quickly stepped out before opening the car door for me respectfu

Scarlett's POVThe moment the door closed behind them, silence filled the room.But it wasn't a comfortable silence. It was heavy and dangerous.I slowly lowered the photo frame in my hand and turned fully toward them.Luna Christine stood near the entrance with perfect posture.Her expression was calm. Beside her, Zack was staring at me.No.Glaring at me.The hatred in his eyes wasn't even hidden. For a moment, I simply stared back.What had I ever done to him?We had only met a few hours ago. Yet the look he was giving me made it seem like I had stolen something precious from him.Luna Christine slowly walked deeper into the room. Her eyes swept across the room.Then she looked at me. "I came to welcome you," she said softly.Her lips curved into a smile. But her voice betrayed her. She didn't mean it.Not even a little.I forced a polite smile. "I appreciate the welcome," I replied calmly.Her smile stiffened. Then, she nodded slowly. "This is your home."The words sounded rehear

Scarlett's POVThe next morning, I woke up before my alarm rang.For a few seconds, I simply lay on the bed staring at the ceiling.Then reality slowly returned.Today was my first day as the CEO of my father's company.Even now, the words felt unreal.A few weeks ago, I was living in Killian's palace, desperately trying to save a marriage that had already died.Now, everything had changed.I slowly sat up and took a deep breath.There was no time to be nervous.Too many people were waiting to see whether I would fail.Luna Christine.Zack.The board members.Even some pack elders.If I wanted to protect my father's legacy, I needed to prove myself immediately.I got out of bed and headed toward the bathroom.After showering, I chose a fitted cream-colored blouse and a black pencil skirt.I tied my hair into a neat ponytail before putting on light makeup.When I looked at myself in the mirror, I almost didn't recognize the woman staring back.She looked confident, strong, and capable.

Tiffany's POVRage burned inside me.Pure rage.I sat there, staring at the investors, my nails digging into my palms beneath the table.Goddess.Why were they asking about Scarlett?Why?I forced myself to take a deep breath, to calm down.I told myself this wasn't the time to lose control.Not here.Not in front of everyone.But hearing Scarlett's name over and over again was making my blood boil.Gosh, I hated that woman.I hated everything about her.Her face, her voice, and The way everyone seemed to worship the ground she walked on like some goddess.Even hearing her name was enough to ruin my mood.Across the table, Killian cleared his throat. "Tiffany is now the head of the research department." His voice was calm and professional. "She's handling everything now."The investors slowly turned toward me.I immediately straightened in my chair and smiled.This was my moment.My chance.Finally, people would see that I was more than Scarlett's shadow.I am smart and talented. And

Killian's POVGosh, this was not what I needed.Not now.Not at all.I stood alone in my office, staring at nothing in particular while my chest tightened with frustration.Tiffany’s behavior kept replaying in my head.The shouting, the disrespect, the slap incident. The staff member’s refusal.Everything.Goddess.I pressed my fingers against my temple and exhaled sharply.I understood she was angry.Yeah, I really did.I mean, losing the investors today had been humiliating for her.For anyone, really.But this?A fight with a staff member? At this critical time?No, It's unacceptable.Completely unacceptable.I exhaled again, deeper this time. “Tiffany…” I muttered her name under my breath.Why now?Why was she acting like this now?I picked up my phone again and dialed her number.It rang twice, then stopped.I tried again immediately.Still no answer.My jaw tightened, “Tch.” I ran a hand through my hair in frustration.Something didn’t feel right. Not just Tiffany.Everything.
