Rejected, And Became A Heiress (Cara) novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140 

It was all just a dream. A horrible nightmare, reminding me of my many mistakes of the past. 

If I didn’t go through with the wedding… 

If I had accepted my feelings for Cara, keeping her close rather than pushing her away… 

If I hadn’t driven her to run away from me… 

Maybe our child would still be alive, and Cara would still be with me. 

Looking back, for the life of me, I couldn’t fathom why I treated Cara with such indifference. She is the kind of woman who deserves the entire world, including a mate who loves and protects her.

I rub my forehead, sit on the bed, and let out a weary sigh. 

A knock on the doorframe brings my attention upwards. 

John enters the room holding a small crisp envelope. “This arrived for you, Sir,” he says and passes it to me. 

Flipping it over, it’s sealed and stamped with the crest of BloodyMoon. Tearing the envelope open, I retrieve an invitation. 

Everything on it is handwritten, and I recognize at once Cara’s familiar handwriting. Is she taking charge of the joint celebration? 

The invitation gives the time, date, and location of the joint celebration between the two packs. There’s also a
