Rejected and Pregnant: Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince-Chapter 25: Kick him out

"Alex is acting weird since yesterday. He even asked to stop the search for Amelie," Flora murmured after the guard at the mansion’s gate told her Alex couldn’t see her because of the work.

Flora clenched her fists hard, her eyes gleaming golden as she felt Alex was hiding something from her. Taking out the phone from her purse, she called Alex. But to her surprise, he didn’t answer her call.

Lowering it, she gazed at the guard. "Do you know where Alpha Alex go yesterday? And where is he now?" she asked the guards, who exchanged glances with each other. freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Miss Conley, we don’t know anything about Alpha Alex’s yesterday trip. Currently, he has gone for an important meeting outside," one of them replied to Flora.

"I see. Please tell him to call me back once he wakes up," Flora urged. She didn’t want to lose her control in front of those guards. She believed until she would become the Luna of Red River Pack, she needed to act calmly.

Climbing back into the car, she drove off to her home.

"Zander!" Flora exclaimed seeing the beta coming from the front. She promptly stepped on the brakes and the car came to a sudden halt.

Unfastening her belt, Flora stepped out of the car and called Zander’s name.

He promptly stopped and turned his head only to find Flora before him.

"What are you doing here, Flora?" asked Zander.

"I was here to see Alex. But he didn’t answer my calls. He is probably resting. The guard didn’t allow me to go in saying Alex is busy in a work and has gone for an important meeting. But his beta is here. What’s going on? Is Alex hiding something from me?" Flora asked, looking at Zander with a suspicious gaze.

"I am here to pick up a file that Alpha Alex has asked me to. There’s nothing he’s hiding from you, Flora. Just give some time to the Alpha," Zander answered her calmly.

"Why has the search been stopped for Amelie? Dad told me that Alex thinks if Amelie has run away from the pack, then there’s no use to chase her and waste our times. Though Alex has told me too, but it is just odd. Shouldn’t she be punished for tarnishing Alex’s image?" Flora questioned while hoping for a positive response.

"It’s strange that’s coming from a sister’s mouth," Zander remarked sharply.

"What?" Flora frowned to hear his statement.

"Flora, Alex has a lot of responsibilities on his shoulders after he became the Alpha of the pack. I hope you won’t bother him with such questions. As the future Luna, you must not doubt his actions but believe him," Zander advised her.

"Now, if you please excuse me, I would like to go ahead for the work," he said, keeping the tone polite.

"Of course!" Flora replied and watched him leave. ’I am going to kick him out once I become the official Luna of the pack. Lecturing me as if he’s powerful than me.’

She angrily walked to the car and stepped in again. Without wasting another second, she drove back to her house.

Amelie was flabbergasted with the infrastructure of the company that Gabriel had established ten years ago after the separation from his family. He was not only a renowned investment banker in the nation, but also an inspiring entrepreneur, who started his journey from zero.

During the meeting, Amelie keenly observed Gabriel. Though it had only been a year for her in the corporate, she never got to see such a person who was confident in everything he would do.

"So, Amelie, did you understand everything?" Karmen’s voice brought her out of those thoughts about Gabriel.

"Yes, I’ve understood everything. I have to start every morning with Gabriel’s schedule and make sure to check everything beforehand. He doesn’t like half-baked knowledge, so I must ensure I know everything," Amelie asserted.

"Absolutely right. My work will be lessened if you do this job properly. I want to trust you because Gabriel does," Karmen stated.

"I will make sure you never get any complaint for me," Amelie assured him with a warm smile.

"Great. I wanted to–" his words abruptly cut off by Gabriel, who appeared in the secretary cabin.

"Amelie, dear!" Gabriel pronounced.

Karmen excused himself, giving them much needed privacy and walked out, shutting the door behind him.

"Yes, Sir?" Amelie responded while clasping her hands together.

"Sir?" Gabriel mused. "I won’t mind if you call my name," he said, tilting his head low to look at her closely.

"It would be appropriate to call you ’sir’ during the work," Amelie replied.

"As you wish," Gabriel said. "I am heading out. If you feel tired, you can take breaks and don’t stress yourself with the work."

"Hmm." Amelie was quite surprised with his concern. He was giving her a princess kind of treatment even at the work.

As Gabriel took a step back, Amelie said, "Thank you for trusting me with this job. I will do my best."

"I know, you will." Gabriel gave a prompt response. "Keep your phone close. I may call you to know about you," he said with a smirk.

Amelie nodded at him and watched him leave. Her heart was filled with peace. This never happened before.

’It is strange that when you meet unknown people by accident, you suddenly feel you are at home than you are with your own family. I was never valued in the place, which I considered my home once. No one talked to me with such politeness. In this second chance, I will definitely turn the tides in my favor and find my home here,’ Amelie thought as she settled on the comfy chair.

A smile formed on her lips realizing how comfortable it was. Gabriel had taken care of everything for her needs even at the workplace. "He is acting as if we are truly mates," Amelie murmured and picked up the file that she was supposed to finish working on today.
