บททั้งหมดของ Too Late To Take Me Back Alpha : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Killian's POV My phone started ringing before the sun was even fully up. The sharp sound cut through my sleep like a blade. I groaned and reached for the phone on my bedside table. Whoever was calling this early had better have a good reason. I rubbed my eyes and glanced at the screen. It's James, my secretary. A bad feeling immediately settled in my stomach. James never called me at this hour unless something was seriously wrong. I answered. "What is it?" His voice sounded strained. "Alpha... we have a problem." I sat upright instantly. "What happened?" There was a brief pause. Then he dropped the bomb. "Most of the research staff are submitting their resignation letters." For a moment, I thought I had heard him wrong. "What?" My voice came out sharper than intended. "The staff from the research department. Many of them are leaving." I was already throwing the blanket aside. "No." My jaw clenched. "No. That's impossible." "I'm afraid it's true, Alph

Killian's POV That night, I barely slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I heard Scarlett's voice. "Send the divorce papers." The words replayed endlessly inside my head. Again. And again. And again. By the time dawn arrived, I had already given up on sleeping. I sat on the edge of my bed and stared at the floor. My chest felt strangely heavy. I hated it. I hated the feeling. I hated that Scarlett had somehow managed to get inside my head without even being here. A knock sounded on the door. Before I could answer, one of the servants stepped inside. "Alpha." I looked up. "What is it?" "The elders are waiting downstairs." I frowned. "The elders?" The servant nodded nervously. "They said it is urgent." Of course it was. Everything seems urgent these days. I stood and adjusted my shirt. "I'll be there." The servant bowed before leaving. I released a long breath. The last thing I needed right now was another problem. Unfortunately, the Goddes

Scarlett A few seconds later, the door opened. Then they entered one after another. Clara, Daniel, Benjamin, Rachel, Emma, Sophia, and several others. The people who had worked beside me for years. The people I trusted more than almost anyone. For a moment, nobody spoke. They simply stared at me. Then Daniel broke the silence. "Holy Goddess." I laughed. "What?" He pointed at me. "You are the Moonlight heiress?" The others immediately joined in. "I still cannot believe it." "Neither can I." Clara shook her head repeatedly. "Scarlett, what is happening?" I could not help laughing. Their expressions were priceless. Rachel dropped into one of the chairs. "I need explanations." Everyone nodded immediately. I smiled. "Sit down." Within seconds, every chair was occupied. The room felt alive again. Daniel leaned forward. "Start talking." I laughed. "Bossy as always." "Yes." He pointed at me again. "And you are avoiding the question." Everyone laughed

Dominic I stared at Scarlett's name on my screen longer after the call ended as a ridiculous smile tugged at my lips.I leaned back in my chair and stared at the ceiling, then I sighed."Goddess help me."What exactly was wrong with me?I just finished a simple phone conversation, a normal conversation. Nothing extraordinary happened. And yet here I was... Smiling like a fool.If any member of my council saw me now, they would probably think I had lost my mind.I rubbed my forehead and let out a low chuckle.For years, I had remained completely indifferent to women.Beautiful women existed everywhere. Daughters of Alphas, princesses, heiresses, models, and celebrities.Many had tried to gain my attention. Many had thrown themselves at me. But none of them had succeeded.Not because they were unattractive, not because they lacked intelligence.It's because I simply never cared. I felt relationships was unnecessary, complicated, time-consuming, and a distraction.The only reason I had

Scarlett's POVThe cold smile remained on my lips as I watched Tiffany from a distance.For someone who constantly claimed she had already won, she certainly spent a lot of time chasing after opportunities that did not belong to her.I adjusted the sleeve of my blazer and continued walking toward the reception area.The sharp sound of my heels echoed softly against the polished marble floor.One step.Then another.The receptionist was still speaking with Tiffany when her eyes suddenly lifted and landed on me.Immediately, her expression changed.Respect appeared on her face.She straightened her posture. "Good afternoon, Luna Scarlett."The greeting echoed across the lobby, several people nearby turned to look.Including Tiffany.The moment her eyes landed on me, the confidence on her face disappeared.Her expression froze completely. For several seconds, she simply stared.As though she could not believe what she was seeing.I was not surprised.The last time Tiffany saw me, I was l
