Chapter 38
With that, Seraphina opened Aria’s bag and indeed pulled mit an expensive diamond bracelet, holding it up for everyone to sea,
The surrounding crowd gasped antilly. The way everyone looked at Aris changed in an instant,
“I didn’t expect Dr. Ashworth to be this kind of person”
“Oh my goddess, I really misjudged her character!”
“Could someone with such behavior really be trued as a healer?“–
“She actually stole the bracelet–bow desperate can you be?”
Aria listened to the voices of everyone around bet, accusing and mocking, and she felt like she was falling into an ice cold abyss.
Her face turned pale, but gradually, she regained an eerie composure.
Extremely calm, like the eye of a storm.
She knew exactly what had happened–Seraphina had planted the bracelet in her bag during their restroom encounter.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have dared to be so confident about the outcome.
Did she repeatedly sabotage herself because of Kane?
But her mating bond with Kane was been covered and not publicly disclosed
How could Seraphina posably have known?
“Dr. Ashworth, even if you admired my bracelet, you shouldn’t have taken it without permission, right?” Seraphina looked perfectly disappointed and hurt.
“Although this bracelet isn’t the most expensive piece I own, it’s my favorite. Even if you liked it, you shouldn’t have resorted to this!”
People around them continued gossiping, their voices filled with blame and mockery.
Everything fell into Aria’s enhanced hearing, nach word like a silver blade.
She clenched her hands until her nails drew blood, her eyes filled with cold emptiness and growing rage
Kane noticed Aria’s dangerous expression, and something in his chest suddenly tightened.
He looked at the crowd with Alpha authority that made them automatically step back.
“Everyone, disperse.”
Seeing him trying to control the situation, Seraphina looked at him with disbelief. “Kane
“Did you all just decide that I stole her bracelet?
When Aria spoko, her voice carried a deadly calm
Aria ignored Kane’s commanding presence and walked directly toward the startled Seraphina.
Slap!
The next second, she raised her hand and delivered a sharp slap across Seraphina’s face.
The crowd was shocked into stunned silence.
Team Dark Tector to Moon Goddess
Everyone in the hospital knew that Seraphina had Alpha Raven’s backing and protection
Who would dare to strike het in front of Alpha Kane himself.
Rowan was geminely surprised, his respect for Aria’s emrage growing exponentially.
He had never expected that she had such fierce spirit.
Bold enough to fight back! He liked that quality.
The slap caugh Kane completely off guard. He grabbed Aria’s wrist and demanded, “What are you doing?”
Aria shook off his grip with surprising force. “What am I doing? I dared to slap her in front of you why would I bother with something as pathetic su stealing her bracelet? If I wanted . emuldn’t I just take it directly? Why would I need to ‘steal?”
“Your bracelet was always on your wrist or in your possession. You accused me of stealing it. How could I have taken a right under your now? Did you not feel anything when I supposedly removed your bracelet? Or is is your hand as thick–skinned as your face?”
