Escaping my arranged marriage with Alpha Prescott

Chapter 142



Chapter 142 Prescott D56% 10:59 #5 It was the sixth time I had caught him staring at Camilla. It was really ticking me off, seeing my father act like this at his age. And that too, for my mate’s mother. He didn’t marry anyone after my mother’s death but now, he had completely forgotten about her. I bet if Alpha Sheldon wouldn’t have returned, he would have asked Camilla to marry him. Had his love for my mother ended? How easily did he move on from Mom after his first love returned? It hurt and angered me to see him falling for Camilla all over again and forgetting about my Mom. Tila left to sleep as she felt exhausted after the gender reveal and I was also going to join her soon, but after talking to my Dad. He had to give up on Camilla. She was my mate’s mother and still in love with Sheldon. They both were happily living with each other and enjoying each other’s company. “Stop staring at her,” I snarled, standing behind me. “Goddess, you startled me,” Dad sighed and I stood beside him, pulling my hands behind my back. “If you’ll not stop staring at her like a lovestruck puppy, soon they will know it, too,” I told him coldly. “What are you talking about?” He kept his head lowered and didn’t dare to meet my eyes. “You know precisely what I’m talking about,” I narrowed my eyes at him. Dad shook his head and peeked at me, looking into my eyes deeply. “I can’t help it, Prescott. I force myself not to look at her whenever I’m around her but I fucking can’t control myself.” “What the fuck are you saying?” I restrained the urge to growl. There were still people around us, not everyone had left yet. I had to make sure that no one heard us so I was talking in a very low voice though they were farther from us.

“I love her. She was my first love,” Dad admitted defeatedly. 1/4 Emergency calls onlyOr Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Chapter 142 056% 10:59 +5 I clenched my jaw after hearing his confession. It wouldn’t feel good listening that your father loved someone else. All the love that he had for Mom vanished or maybe he never loved her, he might have pretended to love her because there was no way that I would feel for any woman what I felt for Matilda. I loved her which meant that I didn’t give a f uck about any other woman. No woman could ever replace her and I wouldn’t even want to look at anyone other than Matilda. For me, it was love and how it should be. “Did you ever love Mom?” I asked him and his lips parted as his face paled. He hadn’t expected me to ask that question. “I didn’t take a chosen mate ever after she died,” he spoke, looking at the sky. “Of course, I loved her and I still love her. How could you question that?” I scoffed, “It was you who told me that I couldn’t love two women at the same time and now, you’re telling me that you love Mom and Camilla both which makes me wonder whom you actually love but the truth is in front of my eyes. No matter how much I want to deny it or avoid it, the fact is that you love only Camilla.” He covered his face with his hands before wiping it and sighing loudly. “You didn’t see me with your Mom or else you wouldn’t have asked me that.” “Exactly. Who knows how you treated her?” I spat icily. “Prescott,” he growled. “Don’t cross your limits. All the pack members know how I treated your mother. I know that at this point, you don’t trust what I say but you may ask anyone how I treated her and how I was with her.” He was offended by my accusation but I knew that one could always pretend so I didn’t need to ask anyone. “I couldn’t withstand the sight of any man hitting on her though she didn’t pay any heed to them. I could die for her and kill for her. I was completely obsessed with her but that’s not how I feel for Camilla. She

is someone! want to admire from a distance. I do care about her but I can’t kill Sheldon to be with her. I’m happy that she is happy with him. I don’t want to be with her, I just want to see her happy with her mate. I’m not jealous of Sheldon anymore because I know what I had with your mother was once in a lifetime kind of love. That’s why I didn’t marry someone else though you needed a mother. F uck, it’s been years and she is not anymore yet I can’t imagine her with someone else. It makes my blood boil and I want to shred that person to pieces,” he explained calmly. “Maybe what I feel for Camilla is not love. It’s just the guilt of believing Beatrice and not being able to recognize that it wasn’t Camilla,” he added with a sad smile. “Yes, it’s not love. I’m not jealous anymore. I’m happy for her and you don’t need to worry. I know my boundaries.” 2/4 Emergency calls onlyDO Chapter 142 56% 10:59 +5 I couldn’t say anything so I walked away from him and headed straight to my apartment. Tila had already fallen asleep. I kissed her forehead and took a shower before joining her in the bed. I wrapped my arm around her belly as usual and she moaned in sleep, turning her face in my direction. “When did you come?” She asked in her sleepy voice, sounding so cute. “Half an hour ago. Now, sleep. We need to leave in the early morning for the town.” I kissed the tip of her nose and closed my eyes. “Can you just put everything in order? We don’t have much time left, Laura shouted at one of her colleagues who was looking at her in fear. Laura was in stress. She wanted everything perfectly organized and in place, just like how I had instructed her. I was glad that she had followed all of my instructions and prepared everything accordingly. I had come to the venue earlier, leaving Tila in our penthouse and assigning a stylist to help her dress for tonight’s event. I would send Caleb to bring her here.

“CEO is here,” I heard someone whispering and suddenly, all the eyes turned to me, everyone’s mouth shut. “Sir, you’re here,” Laura said nervously. “When will be the media here?” I asked as my main target was to get the attention of the media so they would help me advertise my brand and new launch. “Within an hour,” she replied. “Al… Sir,” Caleb’s voice made me tilt my head at him. “The guests have started to come. I think you should go and start receiving them.” I had invited many celebrities and my friends from mafia groups also joined as they were my investors and I had a good relationship with them. Sonya had her launch tonight, too, but she couldn’t make it as big as mine. “Sir, there is a problem,” the general manager of my company whispered in my ear. “What is it?” I muttered through gritted teeth. 3/4 Emergency calls only- Chapter 142 D 56% 10.59 “The person who shared our method of making the perfume has attempted suicide. He has been sent to the hospital immediately,” he reported. “Make sure that the word doesn’t get out,” I warned him and he nodded his head in approval. Why did I have the feeling that it was a werewolf, not a human?. I headed toward the entry gate and stood there with a few of my men around me. I smiled at them and did a handshake with a few of them whom I had known personally. “Al… Sir, should we start the event? The majority of the guests and media are already here,” Caleb asked.

‘Stu pid Beta. Stop calling me Alpha here and we have the mind-linking powers for a reason. Do you forget that when you’re in the town?” I reprimanded him, ‘Sorry, Alpha. It slipped my mind. Should we start the event?” He asked again. ‘No. Go and get Tila here. Then, we will begin.’ I commanded him and he nodded his head before leaving. “Sir, we have served the refreshments to the guests and the models soon will be ready for the fashion show,” Laura informed me. “Make sure that all the products are displayed on the screen behind them as they start their walk,” I told her before mingling with my guests and conversing with them about the launching products. 4/4
