Whispers of betrayal (Selena and Ryan) novel Chapter 99

Chapter 99

Although it was just a pet cat, in Alastor’s eyes, Anastasia’s concern for Snowball was no less than caring for a child.

Anastasia could not let go of Snowball, so as long as the cat was still at home, she would definitely return.

Alastor also hoped that by keeping Snowball, he could make Anastasia stay a little longer.

He did not expect his mother to actually harm Snowball.

Naomi was frightened by Alastor’s roar of anger, trembling as she looked at him. “Why are you yelling? Do you want to scare your mother to death for the sake of a small animal?”

“Let me ask you again. Where did you throw Snowball?” Alastor stepped forward, questioning his mother.

Naomi felt guilty and avoided eye contact. “I-I asked Jeremy to throw it.”

Jeremy was Naomi’s driver.

Anastasia sat on the ground, unable to speak anymore. She wiped her nosebleed and tried to get up by supporting herself with her arms.

“Where is Jeremy?” Alastor asked as he hurriedly went outside to help Anastasia find Snowball.

His eyelids twitched, feeling that something terrible would happen.

Just then, Jeremy returned from outside. However, before he could enter, Alastor grabbed his collar, pushed him against the wall, and yelled, “Where’s the cat?”

Kimberly supported Anastasia, and they walked out. Both of them looked at Jeremy.

Jeremy was stunned and looked at Naomi in shock.

Nevertheless, Naomi furrowed her brows, avoiding his gaze and remaining silent.

“Where’s my cat?” Anastasia shouted. She was getting anxious. Her sixth sense was usually accurate.

Something terrible might have happened to Snowball.

“Someone jumped into the river. Someone jumped into the river over at the scenic area! He jumped in! I don’t know what he’s looking for.”

Anastasia anxiously grabbed a passerby and asked, “Where?”

“Over there. At the scenic area in the residential area,” the passerby hurriedly replied.

Anastasia let go of Kimberly’s hand and ran over in a panic.

Jeremy was also somewhat bewildered. “Mr. Lopez, Mrs. Lopez asked me to deal with the cat…”

“Did you throw it into the river?” Alastor gasped as he looked at Jeremy in shock.

Jeremy looked around and did not dare to speak.

Alastor calmed down and quickly ran over to stop Anastasia.

He was afraid that something was about to go wrong.

Anastasia ran to the scenic river in the residential area and saw Jason in the water. He was completely soaked, taking a deep breath on the surface before diving down again.

“Jason…” Anastasia’s voice was hoarse, and her eyes were burning with tears.

“Come up!” Anastasia shouted at Jason.
