Crippled Luna's Farewell Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception novel Chapter 66

Chapter 66 

Sarah laughed gently and looked down at Alex. “I’m sorry, sweetie, but it’s really late. I can’t cook tonight. How about we eat what the maids made for us, and I’ll make your favorite dish in the morning? 

Alex hesitated, but his stomach growled again, reminding him of how hungry he was. 

He nodded reluctantly, but his smile returned. “Okay, Mommy. But tomorrow, promise?” 

“I promise,” Sarah said, her voice warm and reassuring. 

They sat down for dinner together, and Alex’s mood seemed to brighten as they ate. 

Despite everything that had happened, Sarah still found comfort in these quiet moments with her son 

She wasn’t sure what the future held, but for tonight, this was enough. 

The next morning, as Sarah was preparing breakfast, Alex’s tablet, which he had carelessly left on the couch, began to ring. 

Curious, Sarah glanced at the screen. 

The message was from Linda. 

“Alex, are you still sleeping? Mindlink didn’t respond. I’ll be back this afternoon. We’ll have dinner tonight, and I’ll take you out tomorrow, okay?” 

Sarah paused, her heart tightening for a moment. 

But she quickly looked away, pretending she hadn’t seen it. 

She didn’t want to make anything of it. 

Just then, Alex came downstairs, a bright smile on his face. 

He was typing away on his tablet, but as soon as he saw Sarah, he quickly hid the screen from view. 

“Breakfast is ready, come downstairs,” Sarah said, trying to keep her voice light. 

Alex grinned and jumped out of bed. “It’s been so long since I had aa made by Mom. Yay!” 

Sarah chuckled as she plated the food, a warmth filling her heart. 

No matter what happened with Arnold, she would always have Alex.

And that was enough to keep her going, at least for today, 

The morning sunlight streamed through the dining room windows, casting a warm glow over the neatly arranged table. 

The scent of freshly brewed coffee and buttered toast filled the air as Sarah sipped her tea, enjoying the peaceful start to her day, 

As she spread jam over a slice of bread, the maid approached, wiping her hands on her apron. 

“Luna, are you going to prepare today’s dinner, or should we handle it?” she asked politely, her voice gentle but expectant. 

Before Sarah could respond, Alex perked up. 

His eyes lit up with an idea, and he quickly interjected, “Mom, Dad is coming back tonight! I want him to take me out to eat!” 

His words tumbled out in a rush, almost as if he were afraid of being interrupted. 

The moment the sentence left his lips, regret flickered across his face. 

His fork hovered midair as he suddenly realized his mistake–what if his mother decided to tag along? The thought made his stomach twist. 

Sarah, however, simply gave him a knowing glance. 

She could tell he was lying. 

There was no hesitation in her mind–Alex had other plans, and they likely had nothing to do with his father. 

Still, she chose not to confront him. 

Instead, she took a slow sip of her tea and nodded. “Oh, I see. Well, I have something else to do tonight. You two go ahead.” 

Alex blinked, momentarily caught off guard. He had been racking his brain, trying to come up with an excuse to avoid his mother, but now he didn’t need one. 

A wave of relief washed over him. “Oh! Uh… thanks, Mom,” he mumbled, quickly returning his focus to his plate to avoid her gaze. 

For the next few days, Alex barely contacted Sarah. 

He spent Saturday and Sunday indulging in fun and excitement with Linda and his friends, completely

forgetting about his mother. 

Meanwhile, Sarah received a message from her close friend Clara, inviting her to dinner. 

A pleasant evening out seemed like a good distraction, so she agreed without hesitation. 

When Sarah arrived at the restaurant, she was in a good mood. 

The air buzzed with the chatter of diners, the clinking of glasses, and the aroma of grilled meats and rich 

sauces. 

She was just about to follow the hostess to their reserved table when her gaze landed on a familiar figure. 

Cole. 

Her steps faltered for the briefest second, but she quickly regained composure.
