Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna novel Chapter 41

I leaned heavily on my cane, my old bones aching with fury rather than age. The room had fallen into a tense silence after my outburst at Victoria. Good. Let them all remember who still holds the power in this house.

“Olivia,” I said, reaching for her hand, “with Grandmother here, no one can bully you anymore.”

The relief in her eyes nearly broke my heart. How long had my poor girl suffered while I was lost in my

confused memories?

Victoria’s face had turned an interesting shade of red at my words. I watched with disgust as she quickly composed herself, transforming her rage into a pitiful expression. Tears welled in her eyes as she looked up

at Ethan.

“Ethan,” she whispered, her voice trembling perfectly

I nearly gagged at the performance. Did my grandson truly fall for such obvious manipulation?

With a dismissive snort, I returned to my seat, my cane thumping against the hardwood floor with each step. The sound seemed to echo my authority through the room.

“Who allowed Victoria Frost to come in?!” I demanded, my voice sharp enough to make Eleanor flinch. “Didn’t I

that as long as I’m alive, she’s not allowed to step foot in the Stone family’s house?”

I fixed my gaze on Ethan, who had the decency to look uncomfortable.

“So, am I too old now, and my words no longer carry weight in this house?” I continued, letting the accusation

hang in the air.

(Victoria’s POV)

This was a public humiliation, designed to remind everyone of my place – or lack thereof in the Stone family hierarchy.

The realization hit me like a physical blow. I was alone in this battle.
