Alpha's Regret: False Mate, True Luna novel Chapter 48

ou all say I stole her ring?”

When I said this, Ferris’s brow furrowed even tighter, his deep eyes becoming more mysterious.

Ignoring his gaze, I walked straight toward Ashley, who looked confused.

The next second, I raised my hand and slapped her hard across the face.

The surroundings instantly erupted in chaos.

Everyone knew that Ashley was backed by Alpha Ferris and would very likely become his Luna in the future. Who would dare touch her in front of Ferris?

Even though I had Alpha Adrian’s protection, the weight was vastly different–Ashley was the future Luna, while I was just an insignificant medical worker.

This slap caught Ferris off guard.

He quickly grabbed my wrist, his tone icy yet unable to hide his shock: “What are you doing?”

I pushed him away, my eyes red with anger, “What am I doing? I don’t need the title of thief!”

I looked at Ashley, who was covering her cheek in shock, and laughed: “I dare to hit you in front of Alpha Ferris, would I really covet stealing your ring? If I wanted it, I’d just rob you directly. Why would I need to use the word ‘steal“?”

“Your ring was always on your hand. How could I possibly take it from under your nose?”

‘Or are you saying that when I removed your ring, you didn’t feel a thing? Then become a doctor is probably a really poor career decision for you.”

‘1…”

Ashley hadn’t expected me to turn the situation around, her face turning slightly pale.

The others all thought it made sense.

Ferris looked at Ashley with suspicion in his eyes.

Ashley suppressed the panic in her eyes, calling out urgently: “No… the ring wasn’t on my finger, so…”

Seeing she was about to reveal her flaws, I continued pressing: “You said this was your favorite ring, and it was given to you by Alpha Ferris. If you weren’t wearing this ring, how would I know you had it?”

grabbed her struggling hand, “Or are you saying you specifically took it out to show off to me? And I took it right out of your pocket after you finished howing off?”

Ferris grabbed my wrist, saying: “How long are you going to make a scene in front of all these people!”

I looked at Ferris in disbelief, my heart feeling dead: “Oh now I’m the one making a scene? That head of yours seemd fine last time I checked. I probably missed something. My bad, I’ll say it slower this time–I, AM, INNOCENT.”

“Innocent?” Ferris suddenly burst into laughter, “The ring was found in your bag, and you say you’re innocent?”

That one sentence was like a death sentence to me.

My blood seemed to freeze, “You know I wouldn’t—”
