Charlie's POV

“Welcome Party? For whom?” The answer was clear but I wanted to listen to it from Jenson's mouth.

“It's for Ashley, obviously.” Jenson was still in cold self, “Did you forget that?”

“Right.” I chuckled calmly, “I will arrange it.”

“This will be the last time.” I thought while staring at my fingers.

For Jenson, it was not an unreasonable deed to ask his present wife to throw a party for his ex. He was so nonchalant as it was my duty to please Ashley.

“Prepare it for tomorrow.” He looked up, asking me to say yes.

“Okay. Let me arrange everything now.” I nodded.

“Let the Butler accompany you.” He voiced again.

“Hmm.” Simply humming, I headed to the door but Jenson called me out, “Chary!”

Being surprised, I looked back.

“Take this card.” He forwarded his credit card to me.

I smirked, leaving the card untouched, “I don't need it.”

I turned my back and left. Even though I was not there to watch his expression, I knew very well how angry Jenson was and he could have broken the credit card by his hand.

While driving, I was thinking how Jenson only called Chary when he needed me.

It was draining to care! I looked at the sky and grinned.

The next morning everything was ready. I called Jenson,”Hey, remember to check everything here.”

My words were crisp and clean. Jenson was silent for a while before humming.

Later at night, I received it on my phone when I was having my favourite snacks.

[Charlie, as Luna, you should be present here. Oh! Remember to grab some snacks for Ave.]

“Interesting!” Mumbling I picked up my purse and drove to the venue.

When I entered the ball, everyone looked at me as if they saw a ghost. Even Fedrick's face was darkened.

Jenson was still busy accompanying Ashley and her son. He was feeding cake to Ave with fatherly love. My heart sank watching the moment. I subconsciously caressed my tummy.

‘My little baby!’ I gulped hard.

When our eyes met, Jenson stopped and his expression filled with frustration.

“Why are you here?” He asked, irritated.

“Jenson, don't blame Charlie.” Ashley wrapped her hands around Jenson and acted coquettish, “I wanted her to be here, that's why I tricked her from your phone.”

Well, when I received the message, I knew very well that she was the one who sent me as Jenson never sent me any messages but I wanted to enjoy the drama for the last time and came here.

“You little dummy.” Jenson patted her head affectionately while she was looking at him doe eyes.

“You should've told me.” He smiled, too delighted to be cold.

The three looked like a family whereas I was an outsider. Taking a chance of their family time, I stretched the document for his signature.

“Jenson, you need to sign here. This needs your approval.”

I deliberately covered the Abortion part and showed him the papers.

Ave still clung to Jenson and he didn't have the time to notice and signed hastily.

“Okay, I am leaving.” I took paper and put it inside the bag.

“You are done here?” He narrowed his eyes.

“Yeah. Enjoy your time.” I smiled, pulling myself together.

“Attend a meeting for me.” He asked to show the foreign company’s client.

“Okay.” We entered a private room together leaving Ashley behind whose eyes darkened.

Charlie's POV

When I was leaving with Jenson, I intentionally got close to Jenson to watch Ashley’s reaction. Her eyes were fierce, she couldn't almost keep her fang inside her mouth. If she ever got the chance, she would devour me. I enjoyed the drama while holding Jenson close to me.

We entered in a suit where Jenson prepared everything for the meeting.

“Charlie, this is vital for us.” He murmured.

“Don't worry, we get this.” Seeing the determination in my eyes, Jenson smiled.

“I know I can rely on you.” He smiled, opening the laptop.

Yes, Jenson knew he could rely on me because there was no one better than me in the pack when it came to business. Since this was the last opportunity, I wanted to bang it, leaving Jenson in regret of losing me. I knew that being petty didn't change the situation, but it soothed my mind.

When the meeting ended, it was very late. We had a little talk while having food.

“It turned out well, let’s take a break.” he said at first, “You wanted to visit the scenery of the west coast earlier, let me accompany you there.”

I wanted to visit there on our anniversary, but Jenson didn't come that day. Thinking back, I got to know from Fedrick that it was the time when Ashley divorced. So, Jenson accompanied her that day.

“It's okay.” I chewed some food, “It's not as beautiful as before.”

“Still, Let's go together.” He forced me.

Looking at his intense gaze, I guessed that there was no place for argument. Since the Alpha of the pack, who was always busy, wanted to take me out.

“Well, okay.” Yeah! Let's go together and ended everything for once and all.

The next morning, Jenson woke me up like before when Ashley didn't come.

“It's eleven already.” He passed me a glass of hot water.

“The car is ready, go and get fresh.” He said before leaving.

If Ashley didn't come between us, I didn't need to abort my child. Jenson was not so indifferent to me, I would be thrilled to accompany him but now I didn't feel pleasure anymore. Accompanying him anywhere suffocated me now.

I got down from the bed and pulled out a bodycon. Even after putting on the make up, I still couldn't hide my fragile self.

I caressed my tummy from time to time. Nowadays it had become my habit. But it felt too different knowing I had to let it go.

When I came out, I found Jenson waiting for me.

“Hop in.” He patted the seat beside him. Probably this was the first time, I hesitated for a moment before getting on it.

The ride was smooth and the scenery was healing.

When we reached near the west coast everything was heavenly.

Leaning on a rock, I looked at the water for a long time as if I was lost there.

Jenson, sitting beside me, had his indifferent state.

“Enjoying this?” He looked at me.

“Yeah.” I nodded. Even if the view was nice, the gentle breeze was soothing our body, somehow I couldn't feel any joy.

When I was watching the view, my phone buzzed.

“Who is it?” Jenson looked at me, warily.

“Telecom service.” I mumbled while hanging up the call from the Healer.

“Jenson, I need to use the washroom.” I made an excuse to get away from him.

After a while, when I was alone, I called back.

“Healer Penelope,” I greeted her.

“Luna, did you get the signature? Come tomorrow.” She said in her usual gentle voice.

“Yes, I got it.” My voice was exceptionally firm, “But can I come today?”

“Yeah. But you should think again. Luna, after this I'm afraid you can never conceive again.” Her voice sounded dreadful.

“Don't worry.” I comforted her, “I already think through.”

“Please prepare everything, I will come today.”

Behind me, Jenson stood, hinting his existence with his sandalwood pheromone, “Where will you go?”

Charlie's POV

My eyes widened in shock as I gulped hard.

“Jenson,” my eyes widened slightly as I quickly hung up the call.

I forced out a smile and got close to him, “We were planning for a girl’s trip.”

“Okay.” Thanks to Moon goddess, he did not pursue the topic anymore.

I lied smoothly with a smile on my face.

“Go back, I will come quickly.” I pushed him to go back.

I sent a message to Penelope to let me know the time. Looking at the abortion related conversation, my heart ached.

When I reached the previous point, I was stunned to see Ashley and her son were there too.

Ashley was still giggling like a young girl, with a beaming face, she was holding Jenson’s hand whereas Ave called him “Papa.”

“Ave!” His voice was gentle like water when he picked him up, “Do you like this place?”

“Yes, papa. It's so fun.” He smiled, “Can we come here again?”

“Yes, you can come here whenever you want.” Looking at Ave, Jenson’s eyes softened. I had never seen him like this.

Then again, they made me an outsider. When Jenson noticed me, his expression changed into cold and indifferent as he put down Ave.

“You!” He mumbled, “You are still here.”

Yeah! It was a surprise that I, the legal mate, was getting ignored, whereas the mistress and her son were treated like a bigshot.

“Charlie!” Her voice was sugary as ever, “You won't think that we are invading your personal time with Jenson right?”

“No, enjoy all you want.” I smiled, mockery was visible in my tone.

But Ashley chose to be shameless as if she didn't give a fuck about me.

I also turned back and became distant from them.

But suddenly there was an earthquake. The commotion broke out.

“Jenson!” I screamed in fear looking for Jenson but unfortunately he picked up Ave and Ashely leaving me all alone.

Looking at their back, my tears rolled down.

“So you finally show me your priority.” I mumbled the last sentence before running away from there.

I left that place and hailed a taxi directly to the hospital. Penelope ran to me.

“Is everything alright?” Her voice was mixed with concern and anxiety.

“Yeah, hurry up and perform the surgery.” I didn't want to stay here for another day.

After the abortion was done, I took a picture of my abortion certificate and uploaded it on social media.

“Finally done with the cheaters!” #get_back_my_freedom.

I hopped on the flight and pulled out the sim card before throwing it out on a trash can.

Ashely, Jenson no one concerned me anymore.

Before leaving I already drafted our mate-bond breaking certificate, maybe the attorney already sent it to Jenson.

I already put a note with that too.

“Jenson, we are done once and all.”
