After I Let Go My Alpha He Knelt in Regret novel Chapter 179

Chapter 163 

My hand trembled as I put down my fork. My entire body went cold. 

Before I could react, my phone buzzed on the table. I snatched it up, Lorik’s name flashing on the 

screen. 

“Did you see the news?” Lorik’s voice was urgent, almost strained. “The car they were in–it was involved in the accident. I don’t know if they’re alive or dead.”

My stomach twisted into knots. The idea that Cerelly and Derrick might have been caught up 

mething like this was unthinkable, no matter how frustrating they were. But I couldn’t ignore the suspicion creeping into Lorik’s voice. “I don’t think this was just an accident,” he continued. “There’s something more going on.” 

“I agree,” I replied, my voice steadier than I felt. “But we need to be cautious. I’ll organize a professional search and rescue team to help. This is serious. I need to be there.” 

“You don’t need to-”

destruction. 

Lorik was already there, pacing near the perimeter of the wreckage. When he saw me, he approached quickly, his eyes dark with worry. He took my hand, his grip firm but reassuring.

my clothes, and I shivered despite myself. Without a word, Lorik slipped off his jacket and draped it over my shoulders. He was left standing in just his shirt, the fabric clinging to his well defined chest and arms, but he seemed unfazed by the cold. 

“You should keep it,” I protested, reaching to hand it back to him. “You’ll get cold.” 

Lorik’s hand gently pressed mine, keeping the jacket in place. Tm fine. You need it more.” 

His voice was soft, almost tender, and the look in his eyes was warmer than the night air. I relented. pulling the jacket tighter around me.
