Reclaimed

The crowd hadn’t fully dispersed yet.

Many people heard Hellen’s accusation. They stopped in their tracks and looked over.

Aurora was in no mood to argue with them. She darted them a cold glare and turned around, walking away hastily.

“Stop her! That fraud is getting away!” Hellen shrieked.

John jumped at Aurora reaching out an arm to grab her shoulder. Aurora shook him off with one move and shoved him.

aside.

John s**d backwards and tripped himself, falling to the ground.

He clenched his chest and cried out hysterically, “The G**a from Ever Moon Pack is bullying the civilians! Help! Somebody helps us!”

Aurora clenched her fists in anger.

As much as she wanted to avoid these clowns, they didn’t allow her a single moment of peace.

“I didn’t bully you. You tripped yourself. Everyone here could be my witness

Aurora said icily.

“And fine, let’s talk if you insist. Should I remind you of how you tortured me over the years? When I was a child living under your roof, I never had a full meal! I spent my entire childhood doing hard labors. Kids like Owen beat me up whenever they wanted to. There were broken ribs and bruises on my body during my entire upbringing. I haven’t asked you for the medical bills yet!”

The Ravenwood lapsed into silence, an embarrassed look on their face.

“Plus!” Aurora raised her voice, “You took away all my money when I got expelled. I could have used that my money to buy myself freedom from the rogues. But NO! You stole it from me. 100 million in total! That is enough money to keep a normal family going for more than 10 years! How dare you ask me for money now?!”

But the Ravenwood was no normal family.

They lived the most extravagant lifestyle. The 100 million that they stole from Aurora was long gone by now. And without anybody in court to help them out with their finance, they would so go bankrupt.

They needed money. And Aurora must give them the money. She owed it to them!

Hellen took out a large handkerchief and sobbed into it, “You made that 100 million using the capital that we gave you! We simply claimed back what was ours. Nothing wrong with that.”

“And of course you owe us money!” Paul held Hellen’s waist and snapped at Aurora. “You are not our child you expect us to treat you like one of our own? You are a freeloader, Aurora, hovering over our house and s**g food

anyway. How can from my children! We won’t leave until you pay us back what you owel”

Aurora felt a furious feeling at heart.

The Ravenwood were even more barefaced than she expected.

She couldn’t get violent with them with everyone watching. She couldn’t walk away either-John and Owen were blocking her way.

“Cut to the chase” Damen said icily, “I don’t care who you are

Now we simply ask her to give the money back to It sounds fair, right? But Aurora refused us and shoved my little brother violently Alpha please you most dus justore

Aurora looked at Damien briefly.

He probably wouldn’t take her side.

She wouldn’t be surprised if he stood with the Ravenwood and demanded her to hand over the money.

“So you said that Aurora shoved you?” Damien asked John

John nodded eagerly

“I doubt it.” Damien said with a snort, “Aurora is a G**a If she really did push you on purpose, you would end up with two broken ribs and a concussion. It seems more likely to me that you tripped younelf”

up

The crowd burst into a gale of laughter. And John’s face turned red.

Aurora raised an eyebrow in surprised.

Damien was taking her side this time?

How odd

“And about the money you talked about-” Damien turned to Hellen and Paul and asked, “Give me a figure. How much does she owe you?”

The couple exchanged a greedy look with each other.

“She did spend a lot of our money” Paul said, “So she owes us at least 100 million-

500 million!” Hellen cried, talking over her husband, “I haven’t even counted in the jewelries we bought her over the years!”

500 million?!

Were they crazy?

Chisper 35

The entire Ravenwood family didn’t even have a worth of 100 million. How could they have spent 500 million on her!

They were ripping her off, blatantly!

You never bought me a single piece of jewelry!” Aurora snarled And I wore the boys hand-me-downs growing up! I didn’t rven have any

*Then what about the food you are? The school we put you in Hellen cried.

“Wah?” John agreed with his mother loudly, “500 million! We are not asking for muchTMTM

Damien raised a hand and silenced their quarrel.

Tine 300 million it is” He said.

Aurora jerked around glaring at him in disbelief, “What are you talking about? I am not paying them a penny!”

Damien gave her a comforting look and said to the Ravenwood, This 500 million will be coming from my account.”

Everyone was taken aback by his words.

“Damien, don’t be ridiculous.” Aurora said hastily, “I can’t let you pay for this.”

Damien looked at her softly, “You were my Luna. This is the least I can do for you now,”

Autora lapsed into silence as a mixed feeling surged up in her. He was being nice to her now. But where was he when she needed him the most 6 months ago?

Damien tumed to the Ravenwood again and said, “But let’s do the math first. I let Chloe manage the packhouse after Aurora Jeft. Yet Chlor not only squandered the wealth-that Aurora accumulated for the pack, but also accrued significant debts. Just yesterday, I found out that Chloe’s debts amount to over 200 million. You adopted Chloe as your daughter a few months back. So shouldn’t you be responsible for covering the losses that she caused me?

Paul’s jaw dropped, “Wait what…NO! That Chloe has nothing to do with us! She is adopted! We disowned her already!”

Damien let out a cold sneer and continued. “And I was going through your company’s accounts the other day and noticed some missed tax bills…In fact, your company hadn’t paid any tax in almost 10 years.”

He lifted the corner of his lips into a sarcastic smile and looked around the Ravenwood’s panicked faces.

“Do the math, Mr. and Mrs. Ravenwood. Subtract what Chloe owed me and your missed tax bill from that 500 million and I am happy to pay for the rest. But I am afraid that you will end up owing me instead.”

He turned away from the Ravenwood and nodded at Aurora, “Shall we go now, G**a Aurora?”

Aurora smiled and followed him walking away.

Damien walked her all the way to her car and got the door for her.

Yet Aurora didn’t get into the car right away.

She looked at Damien and said to him sincerely, “Thank you, really, for today.”

If it weren’t for him, she wouldn’t know how to get rid of the Ravenwood.

*1,was nothing. I am happy to do this for you,” Damien said.

“And you think I am a better Luna than Chloe? Aurora asked hastily.

She knew that she shouldn’t care about what Damien thought.

But she still couldn’t help but wonder.

“Of course.” Damien said with a nod, “You are a great Luna. Having you by my side is the Moon Goddess’s bless. But I blew it myself. I regret expelling you. And I also regret…rejecting you when you needed me the most.”

Aurora didn’t know what to say to this.

A strong wave of emotions washed over her.

“I know it is probably too late but-” Damien looked down at her and said in a h***e voice, “-Can you give us a second chance, Aurora?”
