Kidnapped and Rejected The Return of Alpha’s Luna by Moon Claw Chapter 52
Chapter 52
The crowd hadn’t fully dispersed yet.
Hearing Hellen’s accusation, many people halted in their tracks and looked at their direction.
Janet was in no mood arguing with them. She darted them a cold glare before turning around and walking away hastily.
“Stop her! That fraud is getting away!” Hellen shrieked.
John jumped at Janet reaching out an arm to grab her shoulder. Janet shook him off with one move and shoved him away.
John staggered backwards and tripped himself.
Falling to the ground, he covered his chest and cried hysterically, “The Gamma is bullying the civilians! Help! Somebody helps us!”
Janet clenched her fists in anger.
As much as she wanted to avoid these clowns, they didn’t allow her a single moment of peace.
“I didn’t bully you. You tripped yourself. Everyone here could be my witness.”
Janet said icily.
“And fine, let’s talk if you insist. Should I remind you of how you tortured me over the years? Living under your roof, I had never had a full meal. I spent my entire childhood doing hard labors. Kids like Owen beat me whenever they wanted to. There were broken ribs and bruises on my body during my entire upbringing. I haven’t asked you for the medical bills yet. How dare you come back now and ask me
for money?!”
Hellen took out a large handkerchief and sobbed into it.
Paul held her waist, letting her lean on his shoulder, and snapped at Janet, “You are not our child. How can you expect us to treat you like one of our own? You are a freeloader, Janet, hovering over our house and snatching food from my children! We won’t leave until you pay us back what you owe!”
Janet felt a furious feeling at heart.
The Diaz were even more barefaced than she had expected.
She couldn’t get violent with them with everyone watching. She couldn’t walk away either–John and Owen had blocked her way.
Just then, a deep voice came from behind their backs, “What is going on?”
It was Daran.
He walked through the parting crowds and arrived at the scene.
His cold eyes surveyed the group and focused on Paul in the end, “I just said no more dramas and riots. Have you forgotten already?”
Daran’s Alpha aura was very intimidating. The Diaz quivered in fear involuntarily. “A–Alpha Daran.”
Owen plucked up the courage and stepped forward, facing Daran with a flattering smile.
“You probably don’t remember me anymore because I have spent the last few years serving in your patrol team at the border. It is my great honor to-”
“Cut to the chase.” Daran said icily, “I don’t care who you are.
Owen gulped nervously and pointed a finger at Janet, “As you have known, Janet is not my parents‘ kid. She has been freeloading our family for years, keeping her identity a secret from us. Now we simply ask her to give the money back to us. It sounds fair, right? But Janet refused us and shoved my little brother violently! Alpha, please, you must do us justice!”
Janet looked at Daran briefly.
She didn’t expect him to take her side.
She wouldn’t be surprised if he stood with the Diaz and demanded her to pay back the money.
“So you said that Janet shoved you?” Daran asked John.
John nodded eagerly.
“I doubt it.” Daran said with a snort, “Janet is a Gamma. If she really did push you on purpose, you would end up with two broken ribs and a concussion. It seems more likely to me that you tripped yourself.”
The crowd burst into a gale of laughter. And John’s face turned red.
Janet raised an eyebrow in surprised.
Daran was taking her side this time?
How odd.
“And about the money you talked about-”
Daran turned to Hellen and Paul and asked, “Give me a figure. How much does she owe you?”
The couple exchanged a greedy look with each other.
“She did spend a lot of our money.” Paul said, “So she owes us at least 100 million-”
“500 million!” Hellen cried, talking over her husband, “I haven’t even counted in the jewelries we bought her over the years!”
Janet widened her eyes in rage.
500 million?!
Were they crazy?
The entire Diaz family didn’t even have a worth of 100 million. How could they have spent 500 million on her?
They were ripping her off, blatantly!
“You have never bought me a single piece of jewelry!” Janet snarled, “And I wore the boys‘ hand–me–downs growing up! I didn’t even have any girl’s clothes when I was little!”
“Yeah!” John agreed with his mother loudly, “500 million! We are not asking for much!”
Daran raised a hand and silenced their quarrel.
“Fine. 500 million it is.” He said.
Janet jerked around glaring at him in disbelief, “What are you talking about? I am not paying them a penny!”
Daran gave her a comforting look and said to the Diaz, “This 500 million will be coming from my account.”
Everyone was taken aback by his words.
“Daran, don’t be ridiculous.” Janet said hastily, “I can’t let you pay for this.”
Daran looked at her softly, “You were my Luna. This is the least I can do for you now.”
Janet lapsed into silence as a mixed feeling surged up in her.
Daran turned to the Diaz again and said, “But let’s do the math first. You borrowed 200 million from me when Harper and Janet were abducted by the rogues. Janet was my Luna and I am happy to pay for her share. Yet the rogues never received her 100 million. You pocketed that money yourself, didn’t you?”
Hellen’s mouth dropped open and stammered, “I–I didn’t-”
Yet Daran continued anyway, “Harper had nothing to do with me. So now it is time for you to pay me back her share of 100 million. That is 200 million in total. And I was going through your company’s accounts the other day and noticed some missed
tax bills…In fact, your company hadn’t paid any tax in almost 10 years.”
He lifted the corner of his lips into a sarcastic smile and looked around the Diaz’s panicked faces.
“Do the math, Mr. and Mrs. Diaz. Subtract what you owe me and your missed tax bill from that 500 million and I am happy to pay for the rest. But I am afraid that you will end up owing me instead.”
He turned away from the Diaz and nodded at Janet, “Shall we go now, Gamma Janet?”
Janet smiled and followed him walking away.
Daran walked her all the way to her car and got the door for her himself.
Yet Janet didn’t get into the car right away.
She looked at Daran and said to him sincerely, “Thank you, really, for today.”
If it weren’t for him, she really didn’t know how to get rid of the Diaz.
“It was nothing. I am happy to do this for you,” Daran smiled.
“And you really paid my ransom?” Janet couldn’t help but ask.
She had been blaming Daran for this ever since she was abducted.
She thought Daran was coldhearted enough to watch her die in the rogue’s hands and do nothing about it.
But as it turned out, she might be wrong about this.
It was the Diaz who pocketed the money.
“I did.” Daran said with a nod, “You are my mate, my Luna, my wife, I just regret. not getting there sooner and rescuing you from the rogues. And I also
regret…rejecting you when you needed me the most.
Janet didn’t know what to say to this.
A strong wave of emotions had overwhelmed her.
“I know it is probably too late but–” Daran looked down at her and said in a serious voice, “–Can you give us a second chance, Janet?”
