Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 616

Chapter 616: Answerable for your own heart

Gabriel stepped out of the car, his eyes scanning the perimeter before he quickly opened the door for his mother. The royal bodyguards had already formed a discreet but impenetrable perimeter around the building, ensuring that no threat could approach the Queen.

They moved through the lobby and up to the apartment where Juniper was staying.

Gabriel allowed his mother to step in first, following her closely. Inside, Juniper was seated on a sofa. The moment she saw the Queen, she stood up instantly, bowing her head in a formal greeting.

"Your Majesty," Juniper murmured.

Gabriel walked over to Karmen, who was standing near the window. Before a word could be exchanged between the men, Mabel turned to them.

"Gabriel, Karmen... Please leave us," Mabel requested. "I would like some private space to talk with Juniper."

Both of them immediately stepped out of the door, shutting it behind them.

"Take a seat," Mabel said. She lowered herself onto the wider side of the sofa. Juniper sat across from her on the sofa chair, her back as straight, and her hands clasped tightly in her lap.

"I heard you came to the palace," Mabel began, her eyes searching Juniper’s face for any sign of the girl she used to know.

"Yes," Juniper admitted in a whisper.

"We want you to move on. I know life has been hard for you, and I know the mistakes made have left deep scars. But you need to give yourself a chance," Mabel said. She leaned forward slightly. "You and Dominick were together for seven long years before you married. Though the marriage itself didn’t last long, I understand that as the former daughter-in-law of the Sinclair Family, you deserve your share and your rights. We do not cast our own into the street."

Juniper gulped, a lump forming in her throat that made it hard to breathe.

"I—I don’t need anything, Your Majesty," Juniper murmured, her gaze fixed firmly on her own trembling hands. "I only wanted to see Dominick one last time. I heard he was seriously injured because of... Because of the witch."

She remained still, her head bowed, looking like a child waiting for a lecture she knew she deserved.

Mabel stood up from her seat. She moved across the small space and sat beside Juniper on the sofa chair, placing a comforting hand on the girl’s shaking shoulder. She allowed her to cry, knowing that the anger Juniper had been carrying was finally being washed away by grief. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞
