The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 74

Chapter 74: I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU

"I feel like I am a sinner to hold this grudge alone when all of you praise her for what she had done for us, forgetting about our pain." Aria was in pain to see how people looked at Iris and how they admired her, feeling guilty for hurting her. Why would they feel that way when they had suffered more?

Aria gritted her teeth, she stared at Cane with teary eyes, trying to hold back her emotions, yet the alpha didn’t say anything.

"You will not say anything about this." That was a statement and as if she realized this conversation wouldn’t go anywhere, she turned around and left the library.

If it was someone else, she would have been punished for her rudeness, but Cane wouldn’t hold this against her.

He understood what she felt, but they were not walking on the same path right now. She began to move further away.

Outside of the library, Aria saw Iris standing behind the door. She was not sure whether she knew what the conversation inside was about or not, but it didn’t matter to her anymore.

"I will never forgive you. Never." She emphasized her words with acrimony.

Aria was tempted to give her a slap, but then the alpha was inside the library while she already got on his bad side after their argument. No matter what, she didn’t want to lose Cane’s affection just yet. She still had a plan in her mind, but she needed to calm herself down first and think about it thoroughly.

On the other hand, Iris could only lower her eyes, as she let Aria glower at her. In a way, she understood her frustrations and why she was so hostile toward her.

Only when Aria stormed away did Iris raise her head and enter the room.

She looked around and found Cane was reading the book in his hands, but for some reason, he looked upset. There was something bothering him.

"Alpha..." Iris called him gingerly, because she didn’t want to disturb him. However, he was the one who had called her to come over.

Cane lifted his head from the book in his hand and then looked at Iris sharply, the tension after Aria’s outburst was so thick in the air.

"I can come back again if you need some time," Iris said, she didn’t move from her position, but her eyes were on him.

"No. Come with me." Cane then strode across the room and waited at the door when Iris didn’t immediately follow him. He stared at her as if asking; what are you waiting for?

Iris immediately went running toward him and both of them walked out of the library toward the yard, where a carriage had been waiting for them.

Cane opened the door and let her get inside first.

Obediently, Iris entered the carriage and sat down. She didn’t know where they would go, but she didn’t think this was the right time to ask anything about it. After all, Cane did not seem to be in a good mood.
