After I left Alpha father and son went crazy with regret novel Chapter 124

Chapter 124 

Dalton relaxed slightly, grateful for the shift in topic. “Yes, I’m here to discuss a partnership with the head of STARLINE Studios.” 

Before the conversation could continue, Linda interjected, as if remembering something. 

“Dalton, I’m actually launching a fashion brand soon,” she said with an easy smile. “If you’re interested, perhaps we could collaborate.” 

Dalton’s heart leaped at the opportunity. A chance to work closely with Linda? He didn’t need to think twice. “I’d be honored,” he said immediately. 

But as soon as the words left his mouth, a hint of unease settled in his chest. 

*Would Arnold see this as a provocation?* 

After all, werewolves were notoriously possessive of their mates. Even if Arnold had never publicly acknowledged Linda as his, Dalton knew that there were certain unspoken boundaries when it came to pack dynamics. 

Yet Arnold’s reaction was unreadable. He merely nodded, his demeanor as calm as ever. If he felt anything about Dalton’s sudden involvement with Linda’s business, he didn’t show it. 

The tension ebbed slightly, and the evening carried on without incident. 

After dinner, they stepped outside the restaurant to part ways. Dalton intended to return to his hotel, while Linda and Alex were preparing to leave as well. 

Alex, however, had grown bored. He fidgeted beside Linda, glancing around idly, when suddenly his eyes widened. 

Breaking free from Linda’s grasp, he took a few quick steps forward, straining to see past the bustling crowd. 

“I think I saw Mommy again!” he blurted. 

Linda reached out swiftly, pulling him back with a gentle but firm grip. Without looking in the direction he was pointing, she said smoothly, “The driver is waiting for us. Let’s go.” 

Alex hesitated, his little brows furrowing. He looked again, scanning the faces in the crowd, but this time, he couldn’t spot her. Maybe he really had imagined it. 

With a small sigh, he allowed Linda to guide him toward the waiting car. 

Dalton watched their backs as they disappeared down the street, his mind swirling with thoughts. 

Just as he was about to turn away himself, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure standing a short distan 

away.

Nora. 

She hadn’t made any move to approach. She stood there, half–shielded by the passing crowd, her posture poised yet cold. But her eyes–her eyes were locked onto Linda and Alex, unreadable yet intense. 

Dalton’s breath hitched slightly at the expression on her face. 

There was no warmth, no sorrow. 

Only a piercing coldness, as if she were looking at an enemy. 

His stomach twisted. He had known for a long time that Nora resented Linda, but seeing it so blatantly unsettled him. 

Dalton had always believed that her grudge was unnecessary. He knew what had happened to the Clark family, how Linda’s mother had played a role In its downfall. But *that* wasn’t Linda’s fault. 

She had been young, innocent. 

And more importantly, she had never harmed Nora directly. 

On the contrary, it had always been Nora who acted antagonistically toward Linda. 

Dalton frowned as he turned toward her. 

Nora didn’t move, didn’t react to his approach. She merely stood there, holding a small bag of items–books and decorative crafts, no doubt picked with her usual impeccable taste. 

She didn’t look like a woman drowning in resentment. She looked composed. And yet, that chilling gaze she had given Linda just moments ago still lingered in his mind. 

Dalton exhaled sharply before speaking. “What do you want?” 

Nora blinked, finally shifting her attention to him. “What do you mean?” 

Dalton narrowed his eyes. “She doesn’t care about you. You mean nothing to her. And yet, you’re still holding a grudge. Don’t you think that’s a little ridiculous?” 

For the first time, something flickered in Nora’s expression. It wasn’t anger. It wasn’t shock. 

It was amusement. 

She let out a small, almost pitying chuckle. 

“Is that what you think?” she murmured. 

Dalton crossed his arms. “It’s what *everyone* thinks. Linda has never wronged you. You’re the one who keeps picking fights, like a bitter little girl who can’t let go of the past.” 

Nora’s smile didn’t waver, but her eyes sharpened.
