Shattered by the Alpha Stronger Than Ever novel Chapter 128

Chapter115

“And yeah we’ll talk later,” his tone was pressingly promising. “Hendrix is calling,” he said, his tone casual, as if it was no big deal to be juggling multiple calls while driving. He excused himself in a smooth, unhurried manner, and then the line went dead. I was left staring at my phone, worry, annoyance and anger sparks through me. He needs to sto

thinking of himself as invincible just because he

was a former Major.

“Karry?” a soft voice called out from behind us. I turned to see Chelsea, her arms wrapped around a bag of food, dressed in worn. sweatpants and a faded hoodie. Her face was painted with sorrow, puffy and red from what looked like a long night of tears. Her eyes, usually bright and sparkling, were dull and swollen, filled with a deep sadness.

“We don’t want to talk to you, thank you,” Xaviera snapped, her arms crossed over her chest in a fierce gesture. I was taken aback – usually, I was the one with the quick temper and sharp tongue. But today, it was Xaviera who was radiating a fierce, protective energy. I wondered if it was the pregnancy hormones kicking in.

Chelsea’s face crumpled as she turned to leave, but I called out softly, “Wait” She paused, her back still to us, and for a moment, I thought I saw her shoulders tremble. Then, slowly, she turned around uncertain.

“What happened to you?” I asked, my voice softer than I intended, as Chelsea approached us with hesitant steps. She looked fragile, like she might shatter at any moment,

“Can I sit?” she asked, as she let out a deep sigh. I nodded, still feeling a simmering anger, but my curiosity got the better of me. We’d been friends for years, and I couldn’t help but feel awful she left us for a guy who clearly didn’t care about her. I had a nagging feeling that he was behind her current state, and I wanted to know the truth.

“I broke

up with Mathias,” Chelsea stammered, her voice cracking as she wrapped her arms around her stomach. “He…he told me I was just another woman he fucked, and…and he told me to get rid of the baby.” Her words made us hold back our gasps and I could see the pain and humiliation etched on her face. She looked like she was on the verge of shattering, and I felt my own eyes welling up with tears. As much as I felt Chelsea had brought this on herself by ignoring our warnings, my heart ached for the innocent life growing inside her.

I hope that pathetic loser ends up losing his dick.

Xaviera’s expression transformed, her earlier anger melting into pity as she gazed at Chelsea. “I thought he’d be different from this baby, but…” She shook her head sadly. “I should’ve listened to you guys,” she admitted.

“I’m going to get an appointment for an abortion tomorrow,” Chelsea stated flatly, her voice devoid of emotion, but her eyes told a different story. They seemed to hold a deep sadness, as if she was convinced into a decision she didn’t truly want to make. “I can’t bring a baby into this world with an absent father,” she added, the words sounding more like a justification than a conviction, her voice cracking slightly as she spoke.

“Are you sure?” Xaviera asked, her eyes darting between Chelsea and me, t

filled with concern.

“Yeah,” Chelsea nodded, a small, sad smile on her face as she sniffled, trying to hold back tears. The nod was almost imperceptible.

Chelsea’s voice came out with desperation as she asked, “Can you guys forgive me for what I did? Can we be friends again?” I exchanged a hesitant glance with Xaviera, my mind racing with the pain and hurt Chelsea had inflicted on me. She had called my baby a bastard, criticized my emotional state, and torn our friendship apart with her thoughtless words. I thought we were closer than that, but her actions had shown me that our friendship wasn’t as strong as I believed. Forgiveness didn’t come easily, and I wasn’t sure if I was ready to let go of the hurt she had caused me.

“I don’t know, Chelsea, it’s not that easy to forgive someone, and trusting them again is even tougher,” I stated honestly, as I searched her face for any sign of anger. She had a bad temper when things didn’t go her way.

Chelsea’s expression faltered, and she let out a deep sigh, her eyes dropping to the floor as she bit her lip. She nodded slowly, her head bobbing up and down as she seemed to absorb my words, her face a picture of understanding.

“It’s okay, I get it, I deserve it, she whispered, as if she had expected this reaction from me. She shrugged, a small, defeated movement of her shoulders, as if she was acknowledging the consequences of her actions.

“I just wanted to apologize and let you guys know how sorry I am,” she added, forcing a sad smile onto her face, the expression. “I was
