Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 138

Chapter 138: His beta, Estelle Fayre

"I hope your perspective about your brother changes soon," Karmen said gently as he eased the car to a stop, pulling into the entrance of an upscale restaurant. Pressing the brakes fully, he added, "You should go on inside. I’ll find a parking spot."

Katelyn nodded silently and stepped out of the car. She watched Karmen disappear toward the parking area before turning her attention to the grand revolving door.

Inside, the receptionist immediately recognized the princess. Without hesitation, she quickly informed the manager, who appeared within moments, hurrying to greet Katelyn.

The manager bowed politely. "The VIP section is located on the fifth floor, Your Highness. I will escort you there."

Katelyn smiled lightly. "No need for such formalities. I’m here with someone, so I’ll wait for him."

The manager inclined his head respectfully and stepped aside.

Shortly after, Karmen arrived and gave the manager a brief glance as he stood nearby.

"Shall we head to the fifth floor? The manager said that’s where the VIP area is," Katelyn said warmly.

Together, they approached the elevator. As the doors slid shut behind them, the manager instructed the staff to provide attentive service to the princess, ensuring nothing was lacking during their meal.

Upon reaching the fifth floor, Karmen and Katelyn exited the elevator and selected a quiet table near a floor-to-ceiling window, discreetly tucked away from other diners. Karmen pulled out a chair for Katelyn, who accepted with a grateful smile before settling in.

As she placed her handbag on the chair beside her, a waiter promptly appeared, presenting two menus with a courteous nod before readying his notepad for their orders.

"What would you like?" Karmen asked, his eyes lifting to meet hers. "Since you mentioned not having much of an appetite earlier, maybe something light would be best."

Katelyn smiled, a sudden wave of hunger replacing her earlier nervousness. "Actually, I’m quite hungry now. Let’s go with a full-course meal." The thought of sharing this moment alone with Karmen had restored her appetite.

"Is there anything in particular you’re craving?" she asked, seeking his input.

"I’ll have whatever you choose," Karmen said firmly, closing his menu.

"Alright then," Katelyn replied, confidently placing their order with the waiter. He bowed and quickly retreated to the kitchen.

Karmen picked up his glass of water, taking a few sips. He took out his phone as it buzzed in his pocket and a frown appeared in the middle of his forehead.

"Please excuse me for a moment," Karmen said, rising from the table. He stepped into a quiet corner of the hallway and answered his ringing phone.

"We’ve apprehended the man who attacked Amelie that night," Denzel’s voice came through the line.

"Where are you now?" Karmen asked.

"I’m en route to the prison. Prince Casaio will be the one to interrogate him," Denzel replied.

"Understood. I’ll be there shortly," Karmen said before ending the call.

Returning to the table, he found the dishes already arranged neatly.

"Who was that?" Katelyn asked, watching him closely.

"Denzel. The attacker from Amelie’s wedding night has finally been caught. I’ll have to leave soon," Karmen explained, his expression serious. "Let’s eat quickly."
