The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 316

Chapter 316: CANE’S HIDDEN AGENDA

Iris was happy with the way Cane played along with her, especially the part where he told Nala not to follow him. She would always remember the look on Nala’s face.

But then, it was not only her, who watched everything that unfolded there. There was also Hanna, Ethan and Trion in the background. Their jaws dropped to witness what just happened.

The Gamma tapped Iris’ shoulder to get her attention. "You are jealous," he stated without preamble.

"I am not." Iris shook her head, looking a little bit defensive.

"Yes, you are."

"No, I am not." Iris immediately hastened her steps, as she half- ran toward the garden. She couldn’t hear them, but she was sure, the three of them were laughing right now. How dare they laugh at her?!

Yet, Iris didn’t dare to confront them, nor did she stop to wait for them.

And just like what Iris thought, the three of them were laughing right now. Hanna told them to stop, but she herself was laughing, while running to chase after her missy with the two men behind her. This was the first time she laughed heartily after those dark days when Iris looked like she would lose her sanity any time.

However, Hanna still felt this suffocation for not knowing anything about Will. It had been more than a month and she had not received a single letter from him.

No one knew why he didn’t respond to Hanna’s letters, all they could say was; Will didn’t look so good, as if there was always a dark cloud surrounding him. He stopped talking altogether, if it was not necessary...

What happened to him?

That night, Cane returned to have dinner together with Iris, just like he had promised her. They had it delivered to their room because Iris still didn’t want to meet with those royals and Cane didn’t have any objection. He shared the same sentiment, after all.

But after that, he needed to leave again because a lot of things had happened in the past few days and the Red Claw pack became even more aggravated, since Lori, their representative didn’t get invited to the meeting with the King, more so, the supply of the magic stones had been stopped and this incurred the King’s wrath for their audacity.

Yet, King Aeon still refused to exert more effort to find the fourth prince.

Laluna was miserable because her due date was getting closer and with all that was happening between her pack and the royal family, the poor Princess became very stressed. Lady Ayla, Vemion’s mother, would always be by her side to give her strength, while Koda had prepared everything if the situation turned for the worse.

He had done what Cane told him to do and every time he glanced at Laluna’s swollen belly, conflicted feelings would flit across his eyes before they would be filled with determination.

Two days later, Cane took Iris out of the palace to meet with Haco again, this time, they walked leisurely among the people with Ethan, Redmond, Trion and Hanna.

The weather was no longer so cold and the afternoon sunlight was warm enough for Iris to drop her thick cloak.
