Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 454 Don't Be Jealous "Dad." The sheer force of his presence overwhelmed me, makingdrop to my knees. Pressing my forehead against the fabric of his trousers, I wordlessly begged for his mercy.

At this point, I fully understood the damage I had caused. The Moonveil Pack's stock had taken a steep fall, and multiple deals my father had painstakingly secured were now being pulled by investors. The clan's businesses were facing even greater financial strain.

And it was all my fault.

Regret consumed me, but my hatred for Wendy burned even hotter-and Rosaline even more so. If not for them, would I have fallen into this mess? "I know I was wrong ...

Dad, I won't do it again ... "I sobbed, tears spilling down my cheeks.

"Get back to your room! And don't step out unless necessary-you've caused enough trouble already!" he snapped, his fury boiling over as he kickedto the ground.

I scrambled to my feet and rushed to my room. As soon as I shut the door behind me, I threw myself onto the bed, sobbing uncontrollably.

Out of nowhere, my phone chimed twice. Blinking through my tears, I reached for it and unlocked the screen- only to be greeted by a glaring headline. "Rosaline, Star Entertainment CEO Secretly in Love with, Jasper!" Instantly, my grief faded. I sat up, hurriedly wiping my face, my eyes locking onto the article on my phone. Rosaline, Jasper? I frowned deeply, my fingers gliding relentlessly across the phone screen as I carefully read through the reporter's sensationalized article.

Rosaline...

I clenched my teeth, fury blazing in my eyes.

"I have to eliminate you! Jasper only belongs to me!" Caden's POV: "As for the Azure Haven proposal..." Inside the meeting room, I was in the midst of a discussion with senior executives, going over the next steps for the amusement park project and exploring strategies to draw in investors.

Out of nowhere, my phone buzzed in my pocket.

Five minutes later, when we paused to collect our thoughts, I took a sip of coffee from the cup on my desk and pulled out my phone. A news alert about Rosaline and Jasper immediately caught my eye.

phrase "secret affair" in the headline, I could no longer remain still.

"I need to step away for a moment to make a call, my apologies." After briefly informing the board members, I swiftly exited the meeting room in search of a quiet place to contact Rosaline.

The moment she picked up, I wasted no tpressing for answers. "Rosaline, what's going on with this news about you and Jasper's 'secret affair'?" She let out a weary sigh before responding patiently, "Is all made up by the media. I never said anything like that. Don't be jealous, alright? My PR team is already handling the situation." A bit of relief washed over me. Having known Rosaline for so long, I was well aware of her character. Still, I couldn't shake off my frustration.

Who said the heir to the Eclipse Pack wasn't allowed to feel jealous? No matter how composed I seemed on the surface, I wasn't devoid of emotions.

But since Rosaline had givenher explanation, I had no choice but to suppress my feelings-for now.

I pressed my lips together before finally responding, "Alright." Then, after a brief pause, my tone turned firm, carrying a clear warning. "But Rosaline, you belong toin this lifetime-no one else. Don't even think about another man, and don't you dare set your eyes on anyone else. Got it?" "You're so possessive," she chuckled. "Alright, alright, I understand. Don't you have work to do? Go focus on that." Lilian's POV: "Lilian, cdown for dinner." After returning home, I stayed locked in my room all day, only coming downstairs when the servant called me.

Dad and I sat across from each other at the dining table His expression remained stern, and he made no effort to speak to me.

I quietly picked at my food, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't muster an appetite.

"If you're not going to eat, then go back to your room." Dad shota sharp look and spoke in a low gold voice. "Several of our companies lost investors because of you. If you can eat, then do it quietly-don't showthat attitude here! Thanks to you, the Moonveil Pack is on the brink of bankruptcy!" Bankruptcy?

I was stunned. I knew I had made a terrible mistake this time, so I didn't try to defend myself. But how had Кви things spiraled so badly that our entire Moonveil Pack was on the verge of bankruptcy?

"What are you staring at? This is all your fault!" Dad's anger only grewas he spoke. He slammed his fork down on the table, leaned back in his chair, and glowered in frustration. I had completely lost my appetite. Sitting there felt suffocating, so after a brief pause, I pushed my chair back and stood up. "I'm heading out," I said.

"What are you planning now? Are you trying to cause more trouble? The Moonveil Pack is already in chaos -get back here!" my dad shouted, his frustration boiling over.

Ignoring his fury, I strode straight out the door.

I wanted to find Wendy.
