The Alpha’s Regret Claiming His Luna novel Chapter 8

Chapter 8: Confrontation with Margaret Grey and Farewell–2

Instead, she had departed with indifference, as if I were the one being dismissed!

“The nerve!” I muttered, rising from the chair with as much dignity as I could muster.

Martha appeared in the doorway, her expression carefully neutral. “Will you be staying for dinner, Luna Grey?”

“Certainly not,” I snapped, striding past her toward the front door.

My driver opened the car door as I approached, and I slid into the plush leather seat with a

The familiar glass doors of the law center slid open as I approached. I had worked here for over three years, growing from an apprentice to a fully licensed lawyer. This modest building had witnessed my entire professional journey.

The receptionist looked up with a smile. “Good afternoon, Ms. Winters.”

I nodded in greeting, making my way to the director’s office. Mr. Wilson was expecting me, having received my call earlier.
