All Chapters of The Alpha's Scorned Bride: Chapter 341 - Chapter 350

Ava's POVLaura immediately jumped in. "How can you say that, Ava? Do you wish Mom had died sooner?"My answer came instantly. "I do."Everyone froze. Laura raised her hand, and I caught her wrist easily. Then I looked at Magnus and Lucas and spoke the truth."I wish the same for all of you."The words were vicious, cruel, yet my heart felt like it was being ripped apart. Because once upon a time, I had wanted their love desperately, pathetically.I had begged for it, sacrificed everything for it. All I had ever wanted was for Beatrice to hold me and say, "Ava, I'm sorry."But she never did, not once. Now she was dead. The only things she ever gave me were screams, insults, slaps, and hatred.Tears burned my eyes. A hollow laugh escaped me. "Why?" My voice cracked. "Why can all of you hurt me, frame me, abandon me, and protect her," I pointed at Laura, "yet still expect me to love you? Do you not find that absurd?"Laura snarled, "Ava, yo

Ava's POVAnderson didn't even blink. He remained perfectly calm."No." His answer was immediate. "I think allowing yourself to be used as someone's tool is what truly disgraces a family."Laura's face stiffened. "Anderson, have you been bewitched too?"My shoulders finally relaxed. The moment Anderson appeared, I knew the situation wouldn't spiral out of control.I walked to stand beside him. I turned to the officers and said calmly, "When Beatrice Stone died, neither Reuben nor I was at the hospital."I crossed my arms. "I didn't even know she was dead until Kingsley and Magnus called me." I locked gazes with the lead officer. "You can verify that easily."Before they could answer, Laura cut in. "What are you denying now?" Her voice became shrill. "You could have poisoned her beforehand."She pointed at me dramatically. "You could have easily put something in her food or in her medicine." Her eyes glittered maliciously. "You poisoned Mom. Yo

Ava's POVWood splintered across the floor. A pack of masked wolves stormed inside. Each one carried a heavy club. Their aggressive scents filled the room.My wolf instantly bared her fangs. It was obvious they weren't here to talk. They were here for blood.I frowned, and before I could say a word, the leader looked us over and barked at the men behind him."Those are the targets. Ava Smith and Kingsley Smith. Teach them a lesson!"My eyes narrowed. So that was it. The pieces clicked together instantly. Kingsley had publicly refused to support Laura at the hospital.She must have flown into one of her usual fits of rage and sent wolves after us. My wolf growled beneath my skin.Without wasting another second, I rushed back toward the couch and grabbed Kingsley's arm. "Kingsley!" I shook him hard. "Wake up!"His head lolled forward. "Laura sent people to kill us. Get up!"Unfortunately, despite how coherent he'd seemed during our conversa

Ava's POVLaura froze. Then her eyes dropped to my emerald earrings. Immediately, her face twisted."Why are you wearing those? Did you steal them from me?"The sheer audacity nearly made me laugh. Those earrings belonged to me. She had stolen them first.Nora wrinkled her nose dramatically. "Your scent reeks of lies. You stole those from Ava. She's simply taking back what's hers.""Bullshit!" Laura lunged. Her hand partially extended as she reached for my earrings.The scuffle immediately drew Magnus' attention. The moment he saw Laura's reaction, his protective instincts activated.Without asking a single question, he charged forward, his fist rising. I wasn't surprised. Magnus had always chosen Laura.Before the blow could land, Anderson's hand intercepted him. His grip clamped around Magnus's wrist like forged steel.His Alpha aura instantly flooded the area, and several wolves nearby lowered their eyes instinctively."Mr. Smith,

Ava's POVA stunned silence swept through the memorial hall. Magnus ripped the reports from my hands, his fingers trembling as he flipped through page after page.The scent of panic poured off him. For the first time in my life, I saw genuine, intense fear in the man who had terrorized me for years.Beside him, Lucas leaned forward to examine the papers. His eyes scanned the results, and a moment later, his brows shot upward.Shock flashed across his usually emotionless face. The DNA reports were real, and he knew it.I took a slow breath. The room was descending into chaos, but my wolf remained strangely calm.Maybe because I'd waited my entire life for this moment. Maybe because the truth was finally free.The reporters Ben Styles sent were recording everything that was going on."I know this is difficult for everyone," I said. My voice echoed through the hall. "But Mom's death is connected to all of this."Dozens of eyes turned toward
