Rejected and Pregnant Claimed By The Dark Alpha Prince novel Chapter 778

Chapter 778: Sight of a happy family

Juniper regained her composure, dabbing her eyes with a handkerchief before turning her gaze toward Gabriel.

"Gabriel, I apologize to you as well. I know you still see me as a villain, but I truly don’t carry any hatred for Noah, you, or Amelie. I’ve learned my lesson. And please... don’t punish Denzel because of me. That is the last request I wanted to make."

The room fell silent as every eye turned toward Gabriel, waiting for the Alpha Prince’s verdict.

"Denzel made a mistake, but he is clearly remorseful," Amelie added. "I trust that in the future, he won’t bypass your authority on any matter."

Gabriel didn’t look at Amelie. Instead, his sharp gaze remained fixed on Denzel. "You had too much confidence that I would save you even if things went wrong, didn’t you?"

Denzel hesitated, his palms sweating under the weight of Gabriel’s scrutiny. After a long moment, he gave a brief, stiff nod. "Yes," he admitted.

Amelie glanced at Denzel, prompting him to continue.

"I was too arrogant about my own judgment," Denzel spoke up, his voice quivering slightly. "I really believed that not informing Prince Gabriel wouldn’t be an issue and that Prince Dominick would simply listen to me. Even Juniper told me not to interfere, but I did anyway. I overstepped."

Gabriel leaned back, still contemplating.

"Fine, I forgive you, Denzel," Gabriel said, his voice dropping to an authoritative tone. "But this is the last time. I didn’t give so much freedom to my Beta and Gamma for them to act without thinking of the consequences."

Denzel bowed low, listening quietly to the Alpha Prince’s warning.

"Don’t involve yourself in the matters of others again," Gabriel stated.

Denzel nodded, keeping his hands clasped firmly in front of him. "I understand, Your Highness."

Gabriel then turned his attention to Juniper. "Since Amelie has chosen to forgive you, I will do the same. I truly hope you live a life without any more regrets from now on," he asserted, the edge in his voice finally softening.

Juniper smiled, a genuine look of relief crossing her tired features. "Thank you. I shall take my leave now."

"June, at least stay for refreshments," Amelie offered, gesturing toward the tea service the maids were bringing in.

"Not today. Thank you for allowing me to see you both," Juniper pronounced, standing up from the couch. She looked around the living room one last time, as if finally closing a Chapter of her life that had been left open for far too long.

Rising to her feet, Juniper began walking toward the door, her shoulders finally losing their rigid tension.

Amelie stood up and followed her. As they descended the staircase, Amelie called out, stopping Juniper in the center of the foyer.

Juniper turned around, her gaze bewildered and soft. Amelie quickly approached her, slightly breathless.

"June, life is tough for everyone," Amelie said. "It is all about how you choose to handle it. I truly wish you happiness and a life of fulfillment. I know you will find them."

Without waiting for a response, Amelie pulled Juniper into a warm hug, offering a gentle, sisterly pat on her back.

Juniper froze for a split second before melting into the embrace. She didn’t pull away; instead, she placed her own hands on Amelie’s back, closing her eyes as the last of the bitterness from their shared past finally evaporated.

"Thank you, Amelie," Juniper whispered. "For everything."
