Crippled Luna's Farewell: Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception

Chapter 70

The merchant, seeing that the crowd was very surprised, continued:

“My best friend has a daughter, the original mate. She and her mate grew up together and were engaged!

Sarah was a little surprised, it was the first time she had heard about this too.

“She’s here.”

He tilted his chin toward Sarah, who stood with quiet confidence, engaged in discussion with her team.

Arnold followed Charles’s gaze, his sharp, assessing eyes locking onto her.

There was something about her presence that made it difficult to look away.

The way she spoke, the way she moved–it all exuded certainty, self–assurance.

He had seen her vulnerable before, seen the way she used to look at him with eyes full of trust and longing.
