The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 276

Chapter 276: REDMOND WAS NOT HAPPY

After they walked for a few more minutes in the narrow alley behind the jewelry store, they arrived at a two story lodge.

"We will stay the night here," Cane told Iris, as he opened the door to a warm lodge, where the fire was burning in the fireplace and Leros and Clad gathered around it to warm their bodies.

Both of them quickly stood up when they entered the room and the Alpha pulled Iris to sit down in front of the fireplace to warm her body up.

He helped her to get off her cloak and without saying anything, he left her there, as he walked away with Will in tow.

"Do you want hot chocolate?" Redmond tapped on her shoulder to ask her. It seemed he had been here a few times.

Cane let Redmond know this much because he held onto the fact that this man wouldn’t be able to betray Iris since he pledged his loyalty to her, thus as long as Iris was on his side, he didn’t need to worry about him.

"Yes, please..." Iris said. She sat closer to the fireplace and was happy because she felt warm. She looked around and saw Leros and Clad minding their own business. They were not hostile toward Iris, but they didn’t really think much of her existence either. They didn’t even greet her.

Probably, because they still saw her as Gerald’s daughter, which was something that was not surprising to be the reason why they ignored her.

Meanwhile, Ethan was rummaging through the kitchen, looking for something to eat. He didn’t eat anything this afternoon and bickering with Redmond made him starve.

Redmond returned not long after and handed a glass of hot chocolate to Iris.

"Thank you," Iris mumbled and sipped her drink. It tasted so nice, but of course, the hot chocolate that Hanna made was still the best.

"When will you get your condition checked?" Redmond was at it again. He still didn’t drop the topic and Iris immediately knew what he was trying to say.

"I am not pregnant and I am fine. Stop it." Iris threw him a stern look, but she looked too delicate to be able to scare Redmond off.

He pursed his lips and decided to discuss this matter with Cane directly.

==========================

"What now? What do you want from me now?!" Haco was furious. He had been very anxious, asking for a meeting with Cane ever since he learned that the person he had cursed was actually Princess Osana.

He didn’t even dare to leave the room and was in constant alert, afraid the royal warriors would barge in and take him away at any given moment. "I am warning you! If they catch me, I will spill the beans. I will tell them it was you who had ordered me!"

"I know." _{freewёbn૦νeɭ.com}

"No." Cane shook his head. "You can go to the palace and tell them about what you have done or even the location of this place."

Haco scoffed when he heard that. "They blindfolded me when they took me here, I don’t even know where I am right now."

Cane smirked. Haco was right. He didn’t have any idea where this place was. "I can ask Leros to take you to the city and you can go to the palace on your own then."

Haco narrowed his eyes when he heard that. He knew it wouldn’t be as simple as that, knowing how calculative Cane was, he must be up to something even more dreadful if he was already prepared to let him go just like that.

"Aren’t you afraid I will tell them all about what you have done?" Haco was alarmed to see Cane’s smile. Whenever he smiled like that, it wouldn’t be a good sign.

"Sure, you can." Cane then added. "Do you have any proof?"

Haco was silent for a while, but one could see how his mind was working so fast. Cane was right. He didn’t have a shred of evidence of the Alpha’s involvement in the curse. No one even knew about him, as he was trying to keep it low and kept his existence unknown because of the lycan.

"It will be your word against the special emissary of the King." Cane showed him the golden stamp.
