The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 523

Chapter 523: CHERRY’S RETURN

Once Cherry had given Auburn her final instructions, she snapped her fingers at the driver and then the carriage resumed.

They were quiet for a while and then Coral took in a deep breath and turned to face Cherry.

"Are you sure this is going to work?" Coral asked.

"It will." Cherry insisted. "There is no room for failure."

"And what will happen to Belle?" Coral asked sensibly. "Belle is supposed to be Queen. Now that this imposter is here it’s going to contradict everything."

"It doesn’t contradict anything." Cherry answered annoyed. "It’s all still going to be the same thing. Would you rather your mother finds out that Jasmine is her grand daughter and then realizes that you killed your sister?"

"Apparently I didn’t kill her." Coral said grimly.

"And whose fault is that?" Cherry demanded.

Coral didn’t respond and turned to face the open window.

"Better."

Coral hated being reminded of her mistakes.

She had hated Scarlett her entire life and she didn’t regret killing her.

The one thing she regretted was the fact that she hadn’t succeeded in killing her.

Now this was a mess.

"Don’t you wonder how she survived? Scarlett? Survived so long that she managed to wind up as a slave in the moonlight pack and even have a child?!" Coral said horrified.

"I do. Asked everyone for information but no one has anything about her. It was like she had just appeared one day and started living there. Stupid Jasmine doesn’t even know how she got there. The only people who could tell us now, are dead." Cherry replied grimly.

"How did she even survive that drowning? Why didn’t she come back?" A distraught Coral looked. "Ever since I found out that she lived, I have had terrible thoughts. What if she came straight home and told them I pushed her."

"Well that didn’t happen did it? Imagining things that never happened wouldn’t do us any good don’t you think?" Cherry rose a brow as she picked out a flask of alcohol from her bag.

And for that Coral was grateful.

Grateful that that had never happened.

It would have been a disaster.

"The earlier we know how she came alive the better. You said it after all. A witch told mother that her grand daughter was alive." Coral sniffed. "That person could come back."

Cherry rubbed her brows seemingly annoyed by the numerous questions Coral had for her.

"That won’t happen either. I put a warding spell around the entire kingdom. Before any witch steps inside I would be informed." Cherry replied gruffly.

"What about Marie? The witch you took us to?" Coral asked.

"Good goddess! You’re like yourself as an annoying child all over again. All these questions you pose." Cherry snapped irritated.

"I can’t help it." Coral answered. "From the moment you returned things have been coming to light."

Cherry’s eyes narrowed cunningly. "Are you perhaps, blaming it on me?"

"No of course not." Coral replied hastily.

Goddess. She hoped that the ride would be over soon!

Staying overwhelmed with her aunt in the carriage drove her insane.

"I’m just a little worried." Coral admitted.

"Then find a way to stop it!" Cherry replied in disgust. "Me returning back to the kingdom was the best thing that could happen. Jasmine would still have found her way into the royal family and you would have had to deal with it all on your own. You’re so ungrateful. After everything I’ve sacrificed for you?"

Coral started to feel small.

"I’m sorry aunt." Coral apologized.

Cherry ignored the apology and went on. "As for Marie she won’t say anything. She has boundaries she can’t cross. I also can’t go to her for assistance because I believe she suspects us for killing her sister."

Coral sighed in exhaustion and leaned back in her sear.

Hours later, they began riding into the castle walls.

"I’m offended Roland." Cherry laughed. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
