Alpha King’s pregnant Ex-Luna

Ben knew very well that he would have to make things up in order to not reveal Nelly ‘s identity. However, Thalia hated it when people lied to her. Although she had mentioned countless times that she wouldn’t blame them, Ben still refused to get involved in such a troublesome matter.

Thus, Ben shifted his gaze from Tony to Thalia. “Tony, I think Thalia is like family to us. She has gone through a lot with us, and you still don’t trust her? Don’t try to hide it from her anymore. Just tell her!”

As soon as Ben finished his sentence, Tony looked at him in shock. Thalia also lifted her head and stared at Tony .

Ben was clearly implying that Tony had used Thalia and still didn’t trust her. “You…” Tony looked at Ben and was momentarily at a loss for words.

“What’s wrong? Isn’t that the truth?” Ben asked. His expression was innocent, but the look in his eyes was full of complacency and provocation.

Tony had sabotaged Ben a lot of times over the years. It was also Ben ‘s fault that he trusted his brother too much. However, things were different now. Ben wouldn’t necessarily jump into the trap that his big brother set up for him.

Thalia looked at Tony and narrowed her eyes. “So that’s how it is, huh?” Tony turned and stared at Thalia with horror. “No, that’s not true!”

“Then, what does Ben mean?” she asked.

“He misunderstood. I definitely don’t mean it that way!” “Misunderstanding?” she sneered.

“I’m telling the truth, I swear! I have unconditional trust in you!” he said. “Do you think that I believe you?” she asked.

“Erm… You are so smart, beautiful, and wise, so you will definitely believe me!” replied Tony .

“Do you think that I’ll believe you after you flattered me?” asked Thalia.

Tony put on a smile. “Of course not. How can a wise person like you believe me just because I said something nice? You have a brain and you will definitely be able to tell what’s true!”

He is certainly good at smooth talking his way out of trouble!

In fact, Thalia knew that Ben said that on purpose to do his brother dirty. She was just taking the opportunity to frighten Tony , and now that she had succeeded in doing so, there was nothing more she could say.

“Stop flattering me! If you really do trust me, tell me the truth!” said Thalia.

Tony instantly put on an ingratiating smile when he saw that Thalia wasn’t angry. “Of course, I will tell you even if you didn’t ask me to!”

Thalia merely glanced at him wordlessly, and he heaved a sigh of relief. Subsequently, he stared daggers at Ben , who arched an eyebrow nonchalantly.

Tony knew that his top priority was to appease Thalia, and he must not lie when he was telling her. Otherwise, Thalia would get mad when she found out in the future.

He began, “I haven’t mentioned this before because it has something to do with Nelly ‘s privacy and past trauma!”

Thalia furrowed her brows while looking at him. “Nelly is here for the sake of my granddad.” “Your granddad?”

“Which is Nelly ‘s father.”

“Of course, I know that he’s Nelly ‘s father. It’s just that you’ve never mentioned that you have a maternal grandfather!”

“That’s because he has passed away!” Tony said. Thalia was momentarily stunned. “Passed away?” Tony sighed. “Yeah!”

“If he has passed away, what is your mother doing here then?” “Because my granddad didn’t die of natural causes,” said Tony .

Thalia went speechless. She had experienced a lot throughout all these years, and her sharp instincts told her that it was a complicated matter.

“Did your grandfather stay here?” Thalia asked.

“Maybe. I’m not too sure. I only heard a little bit about my granddad from my Great-grandpa. Nelly didn’t tell me much about my granddad, and neither did she say anything when she came here this time. I only found out by accident. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have secretly followed her here,” said Tony .

Thalia nodded as she listened. “I see. Did Nelly come here to find out the truth about your grandfather’s

death?”

“I suppose so!”

“Did she receive some intel?”

Tony thought for a while and asked, “Do you remember the time when we had a birthday party?”

As that topic was brought up, Thalia remembered how she met Spencer last time. She subconsciously lowered her head and said, “Yes I do. Why?”

“You already left back then, so you might not be aware. Nelly ran into a group of people at the entrance of the hotel, and they had tattoos that were similar to Granddad’s. So, Nelly went over to them.”

“What a coincidence!” said Thalia.

At that moment, both Tony and Ben looked at her simultaneously. “What does that mean?” Tony questioned.

Ben also kept his eyes trained on Thalia with puzzlement and anticipation.

Thalia pondered for a moment and slowly said, “I know someone from Midnight fang pack . I can try and see if I can get some info.”

The two brothers were excited to hear that. “You know someone there?”

“Kind of. I rescued him when I was on a mission a few years ago. He is very grateful to me and even insisted on getting my contact information. I can’t say no, so I gave him my number… But I haven’t been in contact with him for a long time, so I don’t know if I can still reach him.” Thalia took out her phone and scrolled through her contacts.

Tony and Ben watched expectantly.

After a while, Thalia narrowed her eyes at one of the contact numbers. “I found it.” The two brothers stared at her quietly.

Thalia looked at the number. “It should be this one. I’ll make a call first and see if I can get through!” When Thalia was about to make the call, Tony suddenly grabbed her hand.

“What’s wrong?” Thalia asked.

Tony stared at the woman, wondering what he should say.

Then, he asked, “Thalia, are you sure you want to be a part of this?”

Although they were members of the same organization, they had only known each other for a while. Thalia had already helped him a lot, but the situation this time was different. Their opponent was not just any typical bad guy, but a group of vicious villains.

If something happened, Thalia will definitely get into trouble, and even… Thalia’s lips curved to form a smile. “What do you mean?”

“You have helped us a lot, but this time, our opponents are people from Midnight fang pack . You know the stakes better than I do,” said Tony .

“So you’re saying that I’m only capable of defeating ordinary people and not the powerful ones?” Thalia asked.

“This isn’t what I meant!” “If it isn’t, then shut up!”

“Thalia, I just want you to think clearly because I’m afraid that you will… regret it,” said Tony . “Regret? How would I know I’d regret it if I haven’t even done it?”

“That’s why I want you to think it through!” Tony said. “Then I’m done thinking!” said Thalia.

Tony was speechless and confused.

“So, can I make the call now?” asked Thalia. Tony said, “You’re too rash!”

“Tony Jackson , since when have you become such a coward?” “I’m not a coward!”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

“Of course you are!” said Thalia. She then suddenly thought of something and questioned, “What’s

wrong? Are you moved by my kindness and feel guilty for the way you treated me?”

Tony was dumbstruck for a moment before a hint of embarrassment flashed across his immature face. “No. I just don’t think it has anything to do with you, and I’m afraid that you’ll get into trouble because of us…”

At that moment, Thalia saw a word written all over his face. Duplicity.

She leaned over and stared at him. “Oh, really?” “Of course!”

“Get into trouble? Ha, I eat trouble for breakfast since the day I met you, so you don’t have to worry about that. Don’t you think it’s a little too late for you to be saying that?” she asked.

Tony said, “You can’t put it like that…” “Then how should I put it?”

Tony looked at her and suddenly had no idea what to say. Nevertheless, he knew that Thalia was just saying that to shut him up.

Thalia said with a smile, “Also, if you’re really touched, then treat me nicely. When I’m old, the three of you must look after me.”

Even though he was really moved, Tony was a stubborn person. “If the three of us are going to look after you, then what about your child? What should he or she do?”

“Who said I’ll have a child?” Thalia asked.

A bitter smile appeared on Thalia’s face as she continued, “How can I have a child if I can’t even find a man right now?”

While Tony was thinking about how he should reply to that, Thalia looked at him and said, “Okay, stop dilly-dallying. Are you letting me make the phone call or not? If not, then I really don’t care anymore!”

Tony stared at her and finally let go of her after moments of hesitation. Thalia smiled and made the call.

Tony and Ben watched while holding their breaths in anticipation. A series of beeping sounds came from the phone.

“I can still get through!” said Thalia.

The two brothers’ eyes flashed with joy.

They then continued to wait until the phone was connected after three to four beeps. “Hello? Is this my savior?”

Thalia smiled when she heard someone speaking. “That’s me.”
