Alpha's Regret: False Mate, True Luna novel Chapter 58

hapter 58

“Auntie.”

Liz gently tugged at my dress hem, looking up at me with her big, watery eyes, her tone soft and pleading: “Can we eat dinner together?”

1 actually didn’t want to have too much interaction with Evan.

But I couldn’t bring myself to refuse Liz’s request, so I nodded and said: “Alright, let’s eat together.”

The hot spring hotel’s restaurant was buffet–style with a rich variety, especially an abundance of desserts.

The lighting in the hall was gentle, spilling down from crystal chandeliers, warming the wooden tables and making even the dishes glow softly.

Evan went to get food for Liz, leaving just me and Liz at the table.

“Does your arm still hurt?”

Liz shook her head.

After a while, Evan returned, placing one of the plates in front of Liz and handing her a knife and fork.

Liz sat quietly and began eating in small bites.

Evan asked: “Does it taste good?”

Liz nodded.

Evan glanced at me, then said to Liz: “Auntie saved Liz earlier. Say thank you to auntie Aurora.”

Liz’s little tongue licked the cake on her fork, then looked up at me and said softly: “Thank you, auntie.”

So he had specifically brought the child over to thank me.

Hearing this, I replied warmly: “You’re welcome.”

Liz looked at Evan again. Evan said: “It’s okay, keep eating.”

iz buried her head and continued eating.

Evan shifted his attention away from his niece, took a bite of food, then asked me: “Did you come alone?”

Me: “Mm.”

le seemed somewhat surprised, and as if thinking about something, asked tentatively: “Why didn’t you come with Ferris?”

But Liz didn’t speak, though she seemed in good spirits, swimming around me in circles.

Before leaving. I said goodbye to Liz.

But Liz opened her arms toward me: “Auntie, hug.”

I had no choice but to reach out and lift her out of the water with me.

After changing into a dry bathrobe, I carried her to the elevator, thinking we’d part ways once we reached our respective floors.

But just as we were waiting for the elevator, Evan appeared.

A bright smile bloomed on Liz’s fair little face: “Uncle.”

Evan walked over and reached out to take her from me, but Liz was reluctant to let go of me while also wanting Evan to hold her, so she stretched out one arm.

Evan took her over, but when he lifted her, Liz’s other hand was still gripping my collar.

When he pulled her over like this, and with Liz gripping so tightly, my bathrobe was pulled open.

My body, clad in blue lace lingerie, was thus exposed before Evan.

My snow–white, flawless skin, my full and beautifully curved chest, and my slender waist were all strikingly eye–catching.
