Whispers of betrayal (Selena and Ryan) novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129

“Why don’t you come to me?” Alastor’s voice echoed.

The humiliation felt like razor-sharp knives cutting through Anastasia repeatedly, and she lost count of how many cuts she had received. Like going through a torture session, her body was in excruciating pain.

Just when she was about to collapse, Alastor came out from the dinner hall.

He stood not far from Anastasia and stared at her greedily.

Anastasia lifted her gaze towards Alastor, but she no longer had the strength to stand upright.

Everyone else was watching the absurd scene for their amusement. To them, what had transpired was nothing more than a joke, and the individuals involved had become laughingstocks.

“Why isn’t anyone entering the hall?” Alastor asked in a deep voice.

Of course, he knew these people were belittling Anastasia, but he didn’t utter a word to support her.

“Alastor…” Felicia rushed toward Alastor and took his hand.

As the onlookers gazed, Alastor didn’t push Felicia away. This action was a confirmation of the gossip they had heard.

It didn’t matter if Felicia was a mistress or not. Now, she was acknowledged by Alastor and had his support.

Anastasia was the loser.

Alastor looked at Anastasia with a gloomy face as if he wanted her to say something. He was hoping that she would beg him.

“All of you, please leave.” When Lionel saw Alastor was unhappy, he hurriedly requested the security guards to evacuate the crowd.

Those who watched the show became even more certain that Anastasia and Alastor had experienced a complete fallout.

“Such a woman will never have a good ending.” They had come to a conclusion.

It was clear. No one would attend Anastasia’s art exhibition. Those who had gone before would never go again. At least those who were at the dinner party today wouldn’t go.

“Why?” Anastasia asked in a hoarse voice.

She lacked the strength even to clench her fists. “Why are you doing this to me?”

Anastasia was trembling.

She just wanted to know why Alastor was humiliating her like this.

She didn’t understand what she had done wrong.

Even though Alastor didn’t trust her and was angry with her schemes, she had already complied with his demands. She had attempted every possible means to divorce him. What more did he want?
