Crippled Luna's Farewell Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 

Sarah’s heart softened at the sight of him. 

“Alright, sweetheart,” she said gently, kneeling down to give him a warm hug, “I will stay tonight and take care of you.” Her voice was calm, yet every word carried a hint of sadness and resolve, 

Later, Sarah returned to her bedroom and felt more than a little surprised when she saw the furnishings of the house. 

The room was untouched. All of her jewelry and clothes were exactly as she had left them. 

She had expected that Arnold, after she filed for divorce, would have hurriedly removed her belongings, 

But nothing had been disturbed. Sarah paused, trying to make sense of it all. 

In the past, she had wondered if Arnold was siding with Linda against her and Leo when it came to matters of what he considered “bullying.” 

However, tonight there was no hint of such favoritism. Instead, there was an eerie calmness. 

She realizes now that maybe he just doesn’t care what happens to her Just don’t make too much of it. 

….. 

That was his usual attitude towards her, cold and indifferent to everything she did. 

Sarah gathered her pajamas and toiletries and made her way to Alex’s room. 

When she entered, Alex’s eyes widened in mild surprise. “Mom, are you staying at my place tonight?” he asked, his tone both curious and joyful. 

“Yes, I am,” Sarah replied with a gentle smile. “I’m here to take care of you tonight.” 

She meant it in two ways: first, to help him recover from his illness, and second, to give herself some distance from Arnold. 

The thought of sharing a bed with him had become too painful. 

She was determined to keep her nights separate from his presence. 

After settling Alex in with a bedtime story and a kiss on his forehead, Sarah decided it was time for a shower. 

She wanted to wash away not just the makeup and remnants of the party, but also the lingering memories of the evening. 

As she entered the bathroom, the sound of running water filled the small space. 

It was a brief moment of solitude.. until Arnold’s presence made itself known. 

Arnold had quietly entered Alex’s room, and when he heard the water rushing in the bathroom, he called out, “Alex, who is in there?” His voice was gentle but edged with concern. 

From behind the closed door, Alex replied, not noticing the slight flush on Arnold’s cheeks, “It’s Mom. She’s getting ready for 

bed.” 

Arnold frowned as he absorbed the answer. 

“Did 

you ask 

your mom to come here to take care of you?” he asked slowly, a note of questioning in his voice.

Alex shook his head, his small face serious. “No, Mom came all by herself.” 

Arnold’s eyes darkened for a moment as an unfamiliar feeling stirred in his heart..a mix of discomfort and regret that he could not fully explain. 

Sarah, from behind the bathroom door, heard the conversation and felt her heart tighten. 

She remained silent, choosing to listen instead of intervene. 

After a few minutes, the sound of footsteps signaled Arnold’s departure. 

Sarah stayed with Alex until he finally fell into a deep sleep. 

The house grew quiet, and Sarah’s thoughts turned inward. 

She reflected on the many changes that had taken place. 

The echo of the past mingled with the present, leaving her with a bittersweet feeling of what had once been and what now was. 

The next day, Sarah woke up at the crack of dawn. 

The first light of morning filtered through the curtains, and she felt a renewed sense of determination. 

Quietly, she prepared breakfast for Alex. 

The aroma of toast and scrambled eggs filled the small kitchen as she worked with a gentle rhythm. 

After ensuring that Alex was happily eating, she grabbed her bag and car keys, ready to leave the villa and start her day.
