Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

Seeing her reaction, Tony asked, “Why don’t you copy Nelly?”

“I want to, but I didn’t get any chance. Besides, it’s hard to find a man with good genes. You’ll get upset if I give birth to fools.”

Something glinted across Tony’s eyes as he muttered, “Actually, Spencer has great genes. He is a medical volunteer. Nelly says he’s capable of resurrecting the dead. I think you can try having a baby with him. Maybe your baby will be good at medicine.”

His reply rendered Thalia speechless. Her face turned dark as she snapped, “Why did you even bring him up?”

“I’m just giving a suggestion. You can ignore me if you don’t like it,” Thalia glared at him. “Come on, time to get out of the car.”

Tony and Ben grinned when they realized how impatient she was.

When the door clicked shut, Thalia turned to them. “When will I receive the money? I thought you’re going to be generous and fork out your money!”

Thalia threw him a glare and snickered. “It’s rare for you to offer your money, so I’ll definitely give you the chance to do that.”

Pulling his phone out, Tony typed something on it. “I’ve transferred the money to you.”

As he spoke, Thalia’s phone beeped. She took it out and glanced at it. Arching a brow, she whistled. “You’re quite generous, huh? Good for you.”

“Really? It’s nothing much.”

“You inherited your boasting skills from Alpha Kilian, I see.”

Tony was at a loss for words.

Ben also fished his phone out to transfer some money to Thalia.

After realizing how much he gave her, Thalia exclaimed, “Ben, this is a lot.” “It’s a little something from me,” Ben said.

“A little something? You’re practically spending all the money you have!” Thalia declared. “I’m not really in need of money, so it’s worth it to spend it on them,” Ben replied.

Thalia gazed at him adoringly. “Ben, why are you so kind? Your future wife is so lucky!”

Hearing that, Tony interjected, “Are you sure she isn’t unlucky? After all, she’ll get herself a husband who spends all his money in the blink of an eye.”

Thalia glowered at him. She was about to reprimand him when she belatedly realized his words made sense.

Even though her heart was convinced, she insisted, “That only happens to incapable men. It’s different for Ben. He’s rich.”

Thalia was full of praises for Ben. At that, Tony rolled his eyes.

“Ben, don’t you worry. I’ll make sure to introduce you to a great young woman who you can spend the rest of your life with!” Thalia promised.

“It depends on fate,” came Ben’s calm answer. “Oh, what a good boy.”

Thalia only had eyes for Ben. Sticking his head out, Tony glanced at the amount on Ben’s screen. Furrowing his brows, he questioned, “Thalia, how could you have double standards? We donated almost the same amount of money!”

“Really?”

“Yeah!”

“Then perhaps I just don’t like you.” Thalia did not bother mincing her words.

Tony had no words to retort. What else could he say?

“All right. You may go upstairs now. I need to leave,” Thalia urged. “Be careful,” Ben reminded her.

“Got it.”

Tony added, “If possible, get someone else to do it on your behalf. Don’t act on your own.” “I know. Don’t worry!” Thalia assured them.

Hearing that, Tony slammed the door shut.

Thalia started the engine and was about to leave when she recalled something. “When I’m not around, stay in the hotel and don’t go anywhere, all right?”

“Yeah.”

“All right!”

After they both agreed to stay in the hotel, Thalia stepped on the gas and drove the car away. As Thalia drove, she could not help but recall Tony’s previous suggestion.

It sounds great to have a baby who’s a medical genius, right? Should I copy Nelly? Her imagination went wild.

In the meantime, Tony and Ben were about to head back to their room when the former’s phone rang.

He fished it out and saw that it was a call from Nelly. At once, his eyes lit up. After answering the call, he greeted, “Nelly, you’re finally calling me back!”

“Where did you get the information?” Nelly went straight to the topic.

Tony thought about it before replying, “Thalia saved a man when she was on a mission a few years ago. He used to be a member of Midnight Fang Pack. When we paid him a visit, he told us he never heard of Granddad. However, his father knew who Granddad was and had met him previously.”

His words were met with silence from the other end of the line.

“What’s wrong?” Ben asked Tony anxiously.

“I can’t get through again!” Tony cried anxiously. “What did Nelly say?” Ben asked.

With a frown, Tony muttered, “There’s something in my head telling me that Nelly’s message means something else. It’s as if she’s trying to inform us about something…”

Although he did not finish his sentence, Ben understood what he was trying to say. Both boys paled, and Ben asked, “Were we too hasty to tell Nelly the news?”

“We were, but at the very least, Nelly will be mentally prepared. If we didn’t do that, I’m afraid she might end up too trusting with others!” Tony stated.

“Now what?” Ben mumbled.

“Let’s go back to the room and think about it before anything else.” Thus, the two boys returned to the room and began pacing.

A while later, Ben chirped, “What we should do right now is to look for Nelly first.”

Sitting in front of the computer, Tony solemnly replied, “That’s easier said than done. Do you think Nelly’s that easy to find?”

Ben frowned. “What about Daddy? Has he heard anything about Nelly yet?”

Narrowing his eyes at the mention of Alpha Kilian, Tony shook his head. “I don’t know, but probably not.”

“Why don’t we call him and ask him about it?” the other boy suggested. Tony mulled over that for a while before replying, “You do it.”

Drawing his brows together, Ben remarked after a while, “Fine.” With that, he took the phone and went to the side.

Ben felt as though he had some kind of communication disorder as he stared at Alpha Kilian’s number; he kept constructing and deconstructing the sentences he was about to say to Alpha Kilian.

Meanwhile, Alpha Kilian was sitting in front of the computer with Dave as they watched Miguel work. His eyes were narrowed as he asked, “How is it?”

“I can’t find it. I’ve been searching on both routes, but I can’t find anything.” “Are you sure?” Alpha Kilian questioned.

Miguel never stopped typing as he replied, “I’m sure. I’ve looked through each and every one of them, and I haven’t missed out on anything…”

Right then, Miguel paused and began frowning at the computer. “What’s wrong?”

“I think I’ve found out the reason,” Miguel stated. “Which is?”

Miguel’s fingers flew across the keyboard again. Things popped up and disappeared on the screen. Soon, a window appeared in front of them.

“Look here. There is a gap between the surveillance footage’s time, and it’s about fifteen seconds. That means someone has done something to the footage before we accessed it,” Miguel explained.

Alpha Kilian studied the footage for a while before realizing that Miguel was right. The frames did not quite link up, and there was a fifteen-second gap.

“So you mean to say that someone has deleted fifteen seconds of the footage?” Alpha Kilian asked. Miguel nodded. “That’s right.”

Alpha Kilian then narrowed his eyes and mulled over something.

Just then, Dave came over to look at him. “J, the men have reported that they’ve combed through the spot you’ve said. They found nothing.”

A grim look flashed past Alpha Kilian’s face when he heard that. He could not bring himself to believe that Nelly would disappear just like that.

To his knowledge of Nelly’s character, she was bound to be living in the area where she had appeared twice. However, he had failed to find her.

Alpha Kilian continued to stare at the computer screen as he thought about those things. At that moment, a thought popped into his head. “Say, do both routes have dozens of seconds of a gap, or is it just this footage?”

Miguel quickly pulled up another footage. Ten minutes later, he replied, “The rest are fine. It’s just this one footage.”

“Does that mean she has gone in this direction, and that’s why the footage is missing a section?” Alpha Kilian analyzed.

Dave inclined his head. “Yes, that’s correct.”

Miguel then leaned forward and rapidly typed away. “I’ll continue to search this route and see if I find out anything else.”

A glint flashed past Alpha Kilian’s eyes as he watched Miguel work.

Dave was right beside Alpha Kilian, so he could see the anxious look the latter had on his face. Right then, Alpha Kilian’s phone rang.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

He promptly took out his phone. When he saw it was a call from Ben, he stood up and moved to the side to pick up the call.

“Hello?”

“Daddy,” Ben started. “What’s wrong?”

Despite having mentally prepared himself for the call, Ben found his mind going completely blank. “What’s wrong?” Alpha Kilian repeated when he heard no sounds from the other end of the line.

In the end, Ben straightforwardly said, “I-I just wanted to ask if you’ve found Nelly.” Alpha Kilian was quiet for a while before he answered, “Not yet.”

“No news at all?”

“Not exactly. There’s something we’re working on. Soon, I’ll be able to find her,” Alpha Kilian informed.

“Really?”

“I almost met her at a place I ate the other day, but I missed her by just a while. Nevertheless, I know she’s near me. I’ll be able to find her soon!”

Ben was thrilled to hear that. “You saw Nelly?” “My friend did,” Alpha Kilian corrected.

“And?”

“And Nelly disappeared. She’s quite wary, and I think she’s just protecting herself. But don’t worry, I’ll find her soon,” Alpha Kilian reassured.

“Daddy, remember to tell us when you find Nelly,” Ben uttered. “Okay.”
