The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 608

Chapter 608: THE CHANGE IN THE SITUATION

"Beta Jace!" Maria rushed toward Jace when she saw him. She has been so depressed because of the revelation and only now she came out of her bedroom. She looked haggard.

Jace stopped walking and turned around to face her.

"What is it, Maria?" He was going to take care of something, he didn’t have a lot of time to deal with her if she was going to pester him about Sofia’s punishment like Kaz did.

There was a deep crease between Jace’s brows, he was being impatient.

"Uhm... I only want to ask something." She looked uncomfortable when she mentioned this. She averted her eyes and stared at her fingers.

There you go.

Jace thought her question would be the same like Kaz, after all they were on the same page regarding Sofia a few days ago.

"I don’t know when the alpha will deliver the punishment for her, okay, so you can stop asking me about it." Jace really didn’t have time for that.

"No, no, that’s not what I want to ask!" Maria said hastily. She grabbed Jace’s sleeve to prevent him from leaving. "I only want to know... uhm, when the alpha and the luna will return?"

Jace rolled his eyes. He knew why Maria asked this question. The old woman must be very guilty toward their luna and to make it up for her, she wanted to start treating Iris nicely. Kaz had asked the same question too.

The beta wanted to rub it on her face for not treating Iris the way she deserved in the first place, but he didn’t have a heart to do it when he saw how she looked extremely remorseful. It was Maria’s luck to talk about it with Jace, if it was Hanna or Redmond, both of them would have eaten her alive with their harsh words.

"I don’t know, Maria. There are a lot of things to be taken care of out there. A year or two, maybe..."

Maria grimaced when she heard that. A year or two was so long...

"If you happened to send a message to the alpha, can you include this to the luna too?" Maria fished out something from her pocket and it was three red leaves. "It’s a good herb for body. The luna used to be very sick, right? Can you give it to her?"

Jace wanted to say that Grace was there and with how overprotective Cane was with his mate, there was no way he would let anything bad happened to her. More so, Jace was sure Iris was in her best condition right now.

However, he still accepted it.

"Okay. Anything else?" Jace took the three leaves. He was not sure what were they, but Grace must be able to tell.

"No. No." Maria shook her head. "Only tell them to take a good care of themselves. I pray for them."

Maria still felt a little bit awkward to wish a good thing for Iris alone, thus she generalized her pray.

Jace nodded and then left, but Maria didn’t feel better. She felt devastated because she couldn’t make up for her mistake when the person that she had been wronged was not even there.

This was a gruesome feeling.

Meanwhile, in the Diandem pack, the rumor about Sofia spread like wildfire.

"That slut was not pregnant with the alpha’s child!"

"We shouldn’t have believed it when she appeared and claimed herself to be pregnant with alpha Cane’s firstborn!"

"Kaz and Maria made it seem real!"

"I can’t believe it we have been deceived all this time!"

"I feel so bad to even be happy for the alpha when he didn’t even want to claim the baby as his in the first place, until it was proven!"
