Alpha's Regret: False Mate, True Luna novel Chapter 156

Ferris’s private account being hacked was the first time such thing had ever happened.

Simon was shocked when he received the call, rushing to the finance department overnight to verify, still finding it incredible.

“Have you found out who did it?” Ferris’s tone was cold as ice, but his expression remained completely calm.

“Not yet.” Simon reported honestly, “This came too suddenly, without any warning. By the time we discovered it, over seventy million had been transferred away.”

“Morning.” He lowered his head and kissed my forehead.

I was slightly stunned.

He indeed hadn’t taken what I said last night to heart.

I turned my head away, coolly avoiding his touch.

Ferris’s eyes narrowed, his thin lips pressed tight. He suddenly gripped my chin and kissed me forcefully.

No gentleness, only plunder and rough assertion of dominance.

I instinctively pushed him away, struggling, but couldn’t escape.

With Ferris right beside me, I didn’t dare say much. Cynthia had originally wanted to ask how my departure plans were progressing, but hearing me repeatedly change the subject, she realized my situation.
