Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 614

Chapter 614: Make you a beggar

"I never lied, June," Dominick said sternly. "If anyone lied, it was you. You hid every truth about yourself behind a mask. I fought to save us. I tried to understand you when no one else would. I did everything in my power to keep this marriage from splintering into pieces."

Juniper reached up, aggressively wiping the tears from her cheeks, though her eyes remained rimmed with red. "I knew it," she murmured. "I knew you would abandon me eventually."

"Look at us, Juniper. We are beyond repair," Dominick said, his voice falling to a weary whisper, the fire of his anger replaced by a cold exhaustion. He didn’t want to fight anymore; he didn’t have the strength for it. "I don’t need your concern. You are free to move on. I will provide the alimony because it is your right, and because I want you to have a chance to survive. You should take it, especially since your family has turned their backs on you. Don’t let pride make you a beggar."

Juniper didn’t offer a rebuttal. She turned on her heels as she hurried out of the chamber, unable to look at him for a second longer.

She found Karmen still standing in the corridor like a silent sentinel. He took one look at her shattered expression and the way her shoulders were shaking, and he knew exactly how the meeting had gone.

Karmen didn’t offer any words of comfort; he simply walked ahead. Juniper followed in his wake. Lester watched them go, his brow furrowed in deep thought. He decided that the Queen needed to be informed of this encounter immediately.

When they reached the car, the sharp ring of Karmen’s phone broke the heavy silence of the courtyard. He pulled it from his pocket and checked the caller ID.

"Yes, Gabriel?"

Juniper didn’t listen. She sank into the passenger seat, leaning her head against the glass of the window, feeling utterly empty from inside.

Outside, Karmen leaned against the driver’s side doorframe, glancing toward the palace spires. "Yes, I’m at the palace," he confirmed, before briefly explaining that Juniper had insisted on seeing Dominick for a final confrontation.

On the other end of the line, Gabriel was silent for a beat, likely glancing at Amelie and little Noah on the carpet before he spoke. "Let Juniper stay in that house," Gabriel said. "Tell her she doesn’t need to worry about the rent. She can live there as long as she needs. Just... Tell her not to create any more trouble."

"I understand," Karmen replied, a hint of relief crossing his face.

"Let’s see each other in the evening," Gabriel added.

"Sure."

The call disconnected then. Karmen climbed into the driver’s seat. As they pulled away from the palace gates, he glanced at the woman beside him, who looked devastated.
