The Alpha's Hidden Heirs (Selene and Kane) novel Chapter 275

Chapter 275 

Third POV 

Meng 

Even though Ruby had no idea why Kane had called her, she was secretly elated. The sight of all his officials gathered in his apartment had caught her off guard for a brief moment, but in the end, it didn’t matter. Kane had personally summoned her–that was all that mattered. 

Her eyes stayed fixed on the striking man seated before her. For years, she had him wrapped around her finger, manipulating him with ease. So when he abruptly broke things off and declared his love for Selene, it had shaken her to the core. 

But with Selene chasing after Grayson instead of fighting for her marriage, it had been easy for Ruby 

to sink her claws back into Kane. 

Kane gestured for her to sit beside him. Keeping a bright, confident expression, she moved to take a seat next to him on the couch. 

The tension in the room was almost suffocating. Kane’s officials exchanged uneasy glances, uncertain about what was coming next. 

Without looking at her, Kane spoke. “When I met you after my marriage, what did you say to me back 

then?” 

The unexpected question made Ruby freeze for a moment. Her gaze flickered toward Beta Finn, but his face remained unreadable. 

She turned back to Kane, forcing an innocent smile. “What are you talking about, Kane? It’s hard to 

remem-” 

His expression grew colder. The sharpness in his features made her throat tighten. 

Taking a steadying breath, she tried again, clearing her throat. “You mean our first meeting?” 

“No,” he corrected. “Our second one.” 

“Oh… yes. The–The second meeting,” she stammered, realizing how close she had come to slipping

Kane leaned back slightly, his tone measured but firm. “What did I say to you about Selene?” 

Ruby hesitated, her brows furrowing. Why was he suddenly bringing up Selene? 

“You told me you were married, but you wanted to give the Luna position to me,” she answered carefully. 

His jaw tightened. “I asked, what did I say about Selene?” 

His voice dropped to a quiet murmur, yet the weight of his words sent a chill down her spine. His dark eyes locked onto her, unrelenting. 

A flicker of realization crossed her face. He was testing her. 

After a brief pause, she finally recalled what he wanted to hear. “You said your wife had nothing to do with me. You assured me she would never harm me, and you made me promise not to hurt her in return.”
