All Chapters of Trading My Cheating Ex for His Alpha Uncle : Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

ZARAFor the next three days, I kept going back to T’s Café, commuting from the hospital to the café every morning in search of my estranged uncle. But he never appeared. I had a feeling he had seen me that day and knew never to return so he wouldn’t be discovered.All these days, I still hadn’t seen or really spoken to Xavier. I needed space after everything, and I was glad he understood. While he wasn’t wrong for wanting to protect me, I was an adult who was capable of making decisions on my own without him making me feel like I was a child who needed to be controlled. Who needed to tell him and take permission from him for everything I did.On the fourth day, I was finally discharged from the hospital, having completed my treatment, and most of the arsenic had left my system. The six bodyguards and I went to the café again, as I had decided to try for the last time. If I didn’t find him today, then I would assume that he would never return here, and I wouldn’t have to continue wast

ZARAThe pack members didn’t look at me the same way anymore, and I noticed that switch the moment I walked into the pack house. Before, there used to be this look of hope in their eyes whenever they looked at me, but right now, all I could see was failure and disappointment. There was a heavy feeling of guilt in my chest, and I became filled with a determination to get my healing powers back. Perhaps that would help activate my Alpha powers. Perhaps that would be enough to radiate my power among all the pack members.Since I became the Alpha, I had always had this overwhelming sympathy and urge to save them. I saw them as my actual family. Like my blood.The following morning, as soon as the sun rose, I set out for the journey to Moonsun City, and fortunately, this time, there was no obstruction at the border.The ride continued smoothly, and I couldn’t stop thinking about the whole situation and the circumstances surrounding Xavier and me.My chest constricted with so much pain ever

ZARAAfter he left, one of Alpha Peter’s men approached me and introduced himself.“Good day, Alpha. My name is Matt, and I will be in charge of your welfare throughout your stay in this pack. Should you need anything, you can contact me immediately. May I have your phone, please? So I can input my number.”Although I wondered why I needed anyone to take care of my welfare when I wouldn’t be spending more than a few hours in this pack, I pulled out my phone and handed it to him to input his number. He promptly did so and proceeded to walk me into the house.In the living room sat an old lady. Healer Helene. Her hair had greyed, and she had brown eyes. Although there were wrinkles on her face, one could tell that she had been really pretty in her youth. I had learned that she was eighty-one years old before coming here.“Good day, Healer Helene. Nice to finally meet you,” I muttered as I stared at her.She stared at me for a long minute without saying anything before her lips eventuall

ZARAMatt came to the room and led me to the dungeon, where he said Alpha Peter was waiting for me. I had wondered why he wanted to meet with me in the dungeon, but I followed him anyway. I knew he couldn’t try anything stupid, that was if he didn’t want a bloody war between his pack and mine.Thinking about it now, my mood soured. If anything happened, would my pack be willing to fight for me? I had seen the disappointed looks in their eyes when I couldn’t help their situation, and that broke my heart.We finally arrived where Alpha Peter stood in front of one of the cells, and inside the cell was a rogue. Before he even said anything, I suspected that they had held one of the rogues captive and brought him here alive.“He’s one of the rogues that attacked you, Alpha,” Peter said, his gaze fixed on the rogue.My eyes were fixed on the rogue beyond the cell bars. He looked battered, and it seemed as though all his bones had been broken. He looked to be in so much pain.“Have you inter

ZARA“He was the one who found me and brought me back to the pack. If he wanted me dead, he had several opportunities to do that. Also, the rogue who was captured mentioned that the person who hired them had brown hair and was chubby. While Beta Derick also has a greying brown hair, he isn’t chubby,” I muttered, wondering why Xavier was suspecting him.“It could’ve been a way to derail us from the main suspect. Take the man who breached the company’s security to exchange the chemicals you were working on. He mentioned that it was a woman who had hired him, and now, an entirely different description has been given. It’s either they were both lying, or there are more enemies than we expected,” Xavier explained. “Also, like I said before, Derick was the only one who knew you were coming here.”“They could’ve eavesdropped,” I argued.“That’s also a possibility. But I have a strong hunch that Derick was either directly or indirectly involved. I’ll look into it, and we’ll know for sure afte
