Crippled Luna's Farewell: Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception
CRIPPLED LUNA’S FAREWELL 69

Chapter 69

After gathering her things, she headed to her car. The city roads were crowded, and traffic was slow. She drummed her fingers against the wheel, checking the time.

Then, suddenly-"bang."

Her car jolted forward.

She cursed under her breath, gripping the wheel tightly before glancing in the rearview mirror. A car

had rear-ended her.

Frustration flared in her chest. She had no time for this.

She climbed out of the vehicle, inspecting the damage. It wasn't severe, but dealing with it would be time-consuming.

"Car trouble?"

A familiar voice drifted from the sidewalk.

Sarah turned her head-and there he was.

Cole.

Sarah remained cold and distant, but Cole's unexpected gentleness caught her off guard.

He explained that dealing with the car issue would take a considerable amount of time and offered to drop her off at the show first.

His calm and accommodating attitude was unlike the Cole she had known before.

He had always treated her as if she were invisible, and during their previous encounters, he had not been

particularly kind.

In the past, he had given her a hard time at the races, showing no concern for her whatsoever.

Yet now, he was behaving differently, as if he had suddenly decided to be considerate.

The show was of utmost importance to Sarah.

There was no time to waste, and she knew missing it was not an option.

Despite her doubts about Cole's sudden change, she accepted his offer and got into his car.

They arrived at the venue quickly, with only minutes to spare before the event began.

As soon as the car stopped, Sarah turned to him briefly and thanked him in a hurried manner before stepping out.

She barely noticed the way Cole's eyes followed her as she disappeared into the grand hall,

Not far from where Cole had dropped her off, a sleek black limousine rolled up to the entrance,

Inside, Linda sat comfortably, her gaze fixed on the familiar figure stepping out of the other car.

Her eyes narrowed slightly as she recognized Sarah.

Her lips curled into a frown as she muttered, "That was Sarah who just got out of his car...

Meanwhile, inside the venue, Sarah swiftly made her way through the elegantly decorated showroom until she spotted Leo.

He looked at his watch as she approached and smirked slightly.

"Lucky you weren't late," he remarked. "There are some highly influential people attending today, and they despise tardiness. If you had shown up even a minute late, it would have left a terrible impression."

Sarah exhaled deeply, relieved that she had arrived on time.

She had to admit, albeit reluctantly, that Cole had done her a huge favor.

As they walked deeper into the venue, they were captivated by the dazzling displays of jewelry.

Every piece glistened under the crystal chandeliers, the finest gems reflecting light like tiny stars.

The showroom was filled with industry elites, designers, and investors, all dressed in elegant attire, discussing the latest trends in jewelry and fashion.

Leo took the time to introduce Sarah to his business contacts, some of whom held significant influence in the design world.

She exchanged pleasantries, maintaining a polite but confident demeanor.

She was just beginning to settle into the rhythm of networking when she suddenly locked eyes with Linda

across the room.

Linda's expression changed instantly.

The sight of Sarah standing among the industry's elite was both shocking and infuriating to her.

She had not expected Sarah to be present at such a high-profile event, much less interacting with people of importance.

Linda prided herself on her own talent, and in her mind, Sarah was nothing more

than a woman who relied on beauty rather than skill.

She clenched her fists discreetly, her irritation growing.

She knew that Leo was the general manager of Studio STARLINE, the most prestigious design studio

under Silver Moon Pack's name.

He had chosen to recruit Sarah despite her lack of experience.

Linda had assumed that Leo's decision would only cause small ripples within the company.

But now, seeing Sarah standing in a place reserved for industry leaders, it felt like an insult.

She bit her lower lip, suppressing her growing frustration.

The company's employees had remained silent when Sarah joined, but this was different.

To allow someone like Sarah to attend such a major event was a slap in the face

to every designer who

had worked tirelessly to earn their spot.

Standing beside Linda, Jenna and Clark had also noticed Sarah.

The two of them exchanged glances, neither looking pleased.

They had not expected her to show up, much less in such a confident manner.

Clark's expression darkened as he watched Sarah.

Both he and Jenna had been waiting for her to approach them, expecting that she would have the courtesy to greet them. However, Sarah made no such move.

She walked past them as if they were strangers, completely ignoring their presence.

It was an Insult, especially in a place where reputation mattered.

Around them, influential guests had already taken notice of the tension.

Many people in the industry knew about the strained relationship between Linda and Sarah.

They were also aware of the power dynamics at play-Linda was associated with Arnold, the Alpha of Silver Moon Pack, while Sarah had ties to Leo and Studio STARLINE.

Most chose to scramble to curry favor with Linda, but Sarah ignored the men and continued to talk to

her other business partners

One of the businessmen with a sharp gaze looked at Linda, who was surrounded and flanked by the crowd, and said in a somewhat disdainful tone, "Do you see that woman over there? That's Snow Moon Pack Alpha's daughter, Linda. There are rumors that she's Luna of the Silver Moon Gang, I really don't know why Alpha Arnold would choose a woman like that."

His companion looked over curiously, "What happened?

The merchant lowered his voice, but it was still loud enough for anyone nearby to hear, "I heard that a few days ago, she was out seducing someone else's mate, and when she was caught, she was beaten up by her original mate
