Goodbye My Alpha (Taya and Griffon) novel Chapter 28

chapter28
I stood still for a few seconds, then quietly bent down to pick up the check.

Five years ago, this money was life changing. Five years ago, I’d desperately needed it.

But now, it didn’t matter even a little bit.

Calmly, I took a step toward the car and placed the wad of paper on the car seat.

“Alpha Knight, you are too generous, but if I were to take your money, I wouldn’t be able to marry Roman with a clear conscience.”

It wasn’t until then that Griffon realized why Taya didn’t want a penny from him. It turned out that she had plans to marry a wealthy and powerful man.

As he looked up at her, all doubts in his heart dissipated entirely, leaving him numb.

“I never want to see your face again.”

Taya smiled indifferently, and something flitted through her eyes, an emotion or thought he couldn’t place. “You won’t.”

At the gate of Griffon’s private manor, Preston quickly got out of the car.

A Town Car drove into the garden when he was about to enter the villa to look for Griffon.

A man who was nearly 6’2” tall got out of the car.

He exuded an arrogant aura from head to toe, with a strong sense of command that made people dare not approach him.

Even Preston felt a chill run down his spine when he saw him.

He shook off his thoughts and walked up to Griffon.

“Griffon—” Preston started to ask where Griffon had gone after Nightshade, but he clamped his mouth shut when the Alpha’s look shot daggers at him.

With a low, rumbling growl, Griffon walked past Preston and headed straight for the villa.

As the entrance, the servant, who had been waiting some time for him, greeted him with a bow. They’d expected their Alpha to be back much earlier, but they hadn’t dared to leave the door for fear of Griffon’s wrath should they not be in their proper places when he returned home.
