“She’s completely changed my view of Omegas! I used to think Omega women were only fit to be housewives.”
Their words of praise floated into my ears as I stood on stage and announced the company’s official listing. Thunderous applause erupted from the audience.
My hard work had finally paid off!
As always, Chris brought me lavender. This time, it was an entire truckload.
“Congratulations, you’ve finally done it.”
“Thank you, Chris!” I nodded at him gratefully. “Can I invite you to share a bottle of champagne with me?”
Just as we were about to pop the champagne, Lila entered the room with Kael on her arm.
“Kael…”
I feigned surprise.
Over the years, my guilt and love for him had faded entirely.
Remembering the scene of him and Lila in that hotel bed, I fought to suppress my feelings of grievance and anger.
Soon, the crowd started murmuring.
“Isn’t that Veya’s mate? Didn’t he die?”
“I even attended his funeral! We used to be business partners, and he owed me a lot of money before his death.”
“What’s he doing here now?”
“And why is he with Veya’s sister?”
…
Amidst the shocked whispers, Lila walked up to me and handed me a paternity test report.
“As you can see, Kael isn’t dead, and Noah isn’t your child—he’s mine and Kael’s. That test-tube baby you thought you had was actually my and Kael’s fertilized embryo. I am Noah’s biological mother!
It’s time for you to return my child to me!”
