Chapter 125
‘You are furious because what I said is truth, aren’t you?” Ayla said to me.

“I am not you! Ayla, we are different!” I greeted my teeth at Ayla, the scent of anger and disdain filling the air.
“That’s enough!” Lucian interrupted my accusation against Ayla in a low voice.
He looked at me with an extremely cold gaze. He was condemning me with his look. My wolf felt the icy chill of his rejection, a deep wound opening in her heart.
He still believed it was my fault! He believed I sent that man to harm Ayla and Willow.
Lucian believed that at the Mooncrest Manor, I deliberately showed Aurora’s paintings to him. He thought it was part of my plan. My plan to evoke his love for my daughter.
I used Aurora again to make him feel guilty. He seemed to be certain about that.
So in his eyes, he must have thought that by taking him to meet Aurora and not letting him answer Ayla’s call in the car, I was holding him back from saving Willow.
When faced with making a choice between me and Ayla, his choice would always be Ayla.
I had been well aware of this. I felt a deep ache, a primal wound inflicted by his consistent choice.
Yes, but my heart still felt inexplicably blocked.
My pain was intense, a profound sense of loss and rejection. I clenched my hand tightly, my nails digging deep into my flesh.
My wolf was trying to persuade me to realize the fact that Alpha Lucian didn’t love me.
My mate didn’t like me even if the Moon Goddess forced him to. So pathetic.
My gaze passed over the smug Ayla, and I looked back at Lucian with the same icy stare. A hint of extreme coldness curled my lips into a smirk. I was defeated, but not broken.
I did not continue to defend myself.
Since he had already believed I was guilty, it was useless for me to say anything.
Too many times, I had been wounded and humiliated too many times. I was already on the verge of being broken into pieces.
I didn’t want to repeat the same mistakes. I felt unwell, leaning my back against the door for support.
Despite this, I spoke sarcastically, “Without any evidence, you want to blame for what that man did to you and your daughter? Who do you think you are?”
My voice was cold, sharp, and filled with biting sarcasm.
Ayla looked at me in disbelief, her eyes red and trembling as she said, “Seren, I can’t believe it. Until this moment, you still have no remorse!”
Her pity face was a sharp contrast to my cold demeanor.
“Originally, I thought that design competition was my fault. I know you were angry about me taking your first prize. Fortunately, Lucian arrived in time to save me and my Willow so neither of us was seriously injured.” Ayla said with tears.
