Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna novel Chapter 162

Once alone, I sat beside Matriarch Evelyn’s bed and reached for her hand. Her skin felt

paper–thin beneath my fingers, the blue veins visible through the translucent surface.

I leaned over, pressing my face against her wrinkled hand. “Grandmother,” I whispered, using

the term of endearment I never dared speak when she was conscious, “my Lily is dead.”

The words broke something inside me. Tears burst forth, hot and unstoppable. Even now, I couldn’t truly accept that Lily was gone. Every time I mentioned her name, thought of her face, or saw anything that reminded me of her, my heart ached as if cut by a knife.

Lily was a piece of my soul, my daughter whom I had raised and cherished like the most

precious treasure. After finally finding a compatible kidney donor and seeing hope that she

would overcome her illness to grow up healthy and happy, she was killed by Victoria.

How could I not be in pain? How could I not hate?

“It was Victoria Frost who killed her,” I continued, my voice breaking. “She deliberately stole

Lily’s kidney donor on the day of her operation, causing Lily to die on the operating table.”

I clutched Matriarch Evelyn’s hand tighter. “And I clearly know the murderer is Victoria, but I

have no evidence and can’t do anything about her.”

The words poured out of me now, unstoppable. “I’ve tried telling Ethan repeatedly that Lily is

dead, wanting him to avenge her, but he refused to believe me.”

My voice turned bitter. “He doesn’t care for Lily. He favors Emma, and he wholeheartedly protects Victoria and her daughter. I have no recourse. I can’t count on him.”

I wiped at my tears, but they kept coming. “I want to confront Victoria directly and make her pay myself to avenge Lily, but Ethan… arranged bodyguards for her, and I can’t even get close

to her.”

Hatred burned in my chest like acid. “Victoria is truly vicious. She killed Lily, and that wasn’t

enough–she took black dog blood with talismans and poured it on Lily’s grave.”

I broke down completely then, my body shaking with sobs. “Grandmother, I hate Victoria with

every fiber of my being. I want to make her pay dearly to avenge my Lily, but I’m helpless…”

Once unleashed, my emotions were impossible to contain. I leaned over the bed’s edge,
