Kidnapped and Rejected – The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw

Chatper 192

Chapter 192

Judging by the testimony and the butler’s shifty reaction, Jcould be sure that Lord Rolf had

something to do with this.

But he just denied it, firmly.

Jhad known this man for years.

To be completely honest, he didn’t strike her as somebody who would lie bluntly in front of everyone’s

face for sjewelry.

So what was really going on here?

Jtook in a deep breath to calm herself and then said, “But this man that we caught this criminal–

said that you are behind everything, Lord Rolf. He said that he is a mercenary and is hired by you.

She looked down at the mercenary knelt on the ground, “Tell them everything that you said toin the

car.”

Half of the mercenary’s body was covered in blood.

He shivered in fear and stuttered in a shaky voice, “I–I was hired! The commission fee was 10 grand for

hijacking the shipment and another 10 grand for bringing it back to Lord Rolf’s mansion. A letter was

sent to us, giving us detailed instructions, like when the delivery truck would arrive, and which route the

truck would take…The letter even has Lord Rolf’s family crest on it!”

“Do you still have the letter? Can I see it?” Jasked.

The mercenary nodded hastily and pulled out a piece of paper from his inner jacket.

It was true.

Lord Rolf’s family crest was indeed on the letter!

Jpresented the letter to everyone, “I think we have found shard proofs. here.”

Lord Rolf took a quick glance at the letter and let out a snort.

“You expect to convictwith a single letter?” he snapped, “And this mercenary. had never met with

their employer. Am I right?”

The mercenary gulped nervously, “No I haven’t…just this letter…”

“There you have it! It means that anyone could pretend to be me. This family crest is

most likely forged!”

There was a deep furrow between Janet’s brows, “Yes that is a possibility. But we found those

mercenaries in your mansion! That is a fact that you cannot deny! Who let them into your house?”

“It wasn’t me!” the butler cried, “I don’t know whom…but clearly our lord is being framed!”

“Then why wouldn’t you letsearch your house earlier!”

The butler glared at Janet, “I was trying to protect my lady! Lady Priya has been sick for years and

doesn’t like to be disturbed by strangers. Are you going to blme for simply doing my job?”

Jbit her lips.

She felt cornered.

She had a gut feeling that there was something wrong with the butler and the Rolf family.

Yet she couldn’t prove it.

“Alright. Alright.”

Casper clapped his hands and silenced the agitated crowd, trying to be the peacemaker here, “Looks

like there are smisunderstandings. We have the safe back, which is all that matters. Why don’t we

drop this for now and pick it up sother day? It is getting pretty late-”

“No! I won’t have it!” Lord Rolf said in a harsh tone, “With all due respect, Alpha Casper, you did a great

job running this pack, but you have indulged your sister’s behavior for too long! Yes, she is our heroine.

But look whom she has brought back here? The Lycans? The rogues?! She invited the enemy into our

house! And now she is accusing decent members of things that we didn’t do! Do you call this just and

fair?!”

His angry accusation echoed in the air.

Many guests stood in silence.

But the look on their faces showed that they agreed with Lord Rolf’s words.

Jclenched her fists in fume, “The Lycans mean no harm to us. And as for the rogues, we have

made peace with them already-”

“Who is this ‘we‘? you can’t make our decisions for us!” Lord Rolf snarled, “The rogues slaughtered our

members and killed our soldiers. I will never put that behind me!”

Casper interrupted him with a sullen face, “You are getting off the point, Lord Rolf. I respect your

personal opinion. But you can’t blJfor inviting her friends.”

“I don’t care!”

Lord Rolf puffed his chest, “I want Princess Jto apologize toand my daughter! Or Blood Moon

Pack will lose my family’s support!‘

Casper’s face darkened.

He looked infuriated by Rolf’s threat

Janet, on the other hand, felt a bit light–headed.

She hadn’t slept or eaten in a whole day.

And now there was this.

Maybe she was being reckless–she should haven’t found shard proof before accusing Lord Rolf in

front of everyone.

Now things were getting out of control

Although she was certain that Casper would back her up, she didn’t want to put Casper in that position.

So maybe she should apologize

“Can I have that letter for a moment?” Westin said abruptly.

Janer blinked in a daze. Then handed him the letter.

Westin sniffed the letter and grinned.

He walked up to Lord Rolf’s daughter, Lady Priya.

“Back away from my daughter, Lycan!” Lord Rolf hissed.

Westin put his hands up in the air, showing that he was harmless, “Relax. I simply want to introduce

myself to you and your daughter. Priya, isn’t it? What a lovely Dame.”

He picked up Priya’s delicate hand and elegantly planted a kiss on the back of her hand, “My nis

Westin Nice to meet you.”

Priya stared at his handsface.

A pink tinge appeared on her pale cheeks.

Nice to meet you,” she murmured sheepishly.

“Forgive me, but I couldn’t help but notice your perfume.” Westin stared at her with a charming smile, “It

is quite unique. I haven’t found anybody else to wear it besides you.”

Priya’s eyes gleamed joyfully, “You haven’t because I designed my own perfume. It is the one and only

kind in the whole world.”

“Impressive.”

The smile on Westin’s lips widened as he asked, “So you are the only person in this world who smells

like this?”

Priya nodded, “Yes. That is right.”

Westin chuckled.

He stepped back, holding the letter up high in the air, and announced to the entire crowd, “Then I guess

we have found the proof…This letter smells exactly like Lady Priya’s perfume!”

“…WHAT?”

People gasped in unison, including Lord Rolf.

The shy smile faded away from Priya’s face instantly, replaced by a panicked look.

Westin handed the letter to Casper and let the letter be passed around the crowd, “The smell is faint.

But it is there.”

Casper sniffed the letter.

His eyes lit up at once.

Westin was right–The letter did carry a faint hint of perfume!

“What do you say now, Lady Priya?” Casper raised his voice and asked, “Why is your perfon the

letter that was sent to the mercenary?”

Priya shivered, looking as though she was going to pass out the next second.

“I–I don’t know…” she gasped, “There must be someone else who wears the sperfas I do-”

Westin raised a brow, “But you said it yourself and I quote ‘the one and only kind in the whole world.”

Priya’s breath becshallow, “M–My maids! Sometimes I share my perfwith my maids

“But that makes no sense.”

Priya’s lips trembled.-

Tears slowly welled up in her eyes.

“Priya?”

Priya inhaled sharply, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind.

“…is your fault,” she murmured.

“What did you say?” Lord Rolf didn’t hear her clearly.

“I said…”

Priya snapped her head up, her teary ears blazing with rage and hatred.

“…it is YOUR FAULT!!!”
