Noticing Lauren's pregnancy, I couldn't help but ask where her husband was while she carried his pups.
Yet, Lauren seemed to be at her wit's end, her eyes narrowing as she replied, "I'm a single mother without a mate to support my pups. This really isn't your concern. My time with Aiden was solely for work; why do you insist on making it a drama?"
As expected, Lauren feigned tears, acting heartbroken. Before Aiden could come to her defense, I laid bare the truth once more, sharing how I had suffered a miscarriage while my mate chose to be by her side.
I added, "While my mate ensured your safety during your pregnancy, he turned a blind eye to my pain and treated my miscarriage as if it were nothing. So, who are you to question me?"
Despite everything, Aiden couldn't fathom the truth and felt the need to ask again if I was sincere.
"Yes, I suffered a miscarriage," I affirmed, my voice unwavering. "I've mentioned it before, yet you chose to disregard my words. You just didn't trust me."
Aiden stared at me, unable to comprehend.
"You assumed I was fabricating the truth, right? I would never lie to you, Aiden," I insisted.
It had never crossed my mind that Alpha Argon might be dining at the same restaurant, but he soon approached us.
In front of Alpha Argon and with Lauren there, I announced, "Aiden, after everything you've done, I will reject you as my mate."
