Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna novel Chapter 378

Connor washed his face at the small sink, trying to appear clean and presentable. His hands shook with nervous energy as he prepared to see Emma.

He was then escorted to the visitation room where Victoria and Emma waited behind the reinforced glass.

Connor's gaze swept past Victoria, landing entirely on Emma. He picked up the phone with trembling hands, his wolf whining with joy.

"Did you give the evidence to Ethan?" Victoria immediately demanded, her voice sharp with anxiety.

Connor's expression hardened as he saw Victoria's desperation. "Are you finally scared?" he asked coldly.

"Did you tell Ethan anything?" Victoria interrupted, her wolf's fear scent filling the small booth.

Victoria then placed the phone next to Emma's ear. The young girl's voice was sweet and innocent as she spoke.

"Daddy, did you give the evidence to Ethan Dad?" Emma asked, her eyes wide with feigned concern.

Connor's tone immediately softened when addressing his daughter. "Emma, sweetheart, don't interfere with adult matters."

"If you don't tell me, I'll never see you again!" Emma threatened, her voice rising with practiced hysteria.

She clutched her chest dramatically, pretending to have difficulty breathing. Her small body trembled as she gasped for air.

Connor's heart clenched as he watched his daughter's distress. Even suspecting she was acting, he couldn't bear to see her suffer.

"I haven't told Ethan anything," he finally admitted, his voice defeated.

Victoria breathed a sigh of relief, her wolf relaxing beneath her skin. She still had the upper hand in this deadly game.

She signaled Emma, who immediately escalated her performance. "Daddy, I'll never forgive you if you hand over the evidence! I'll die if anything happens to Mommy!"

Connor's hand trembled as he gripped the phone. The thought of Emma harming herself if anything happened to Victoria was unbearable.

He couldn't gamble with his daughter's life, no matter what Victoria had done. His paternal instincts overrode everything else.
