All Chapters of Too Late To Take Me Back Alpha : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Killian’s POVI stormed into my office and shut the door hard behind me.The sound echoed. But it did nothing to calm the storm inside me.Nothing.I sat down heavily in my chair, but I couldn’t even think straight.My mind was everywhere at once. Investors, contracts, scarlett, tiffany, and the council.Everything was collapsing at the same time.I groaned loudly and grabbed the file on my table.Then I threw it across the room. Papers scattered everywhere.“Fuck…”I ran a hand through my hair, breathing heavily.How was I supposed to become Alpha like this?How?Everything I worked for was slipping through my fingers.And the worst part… Scarlett chose this exact moment to misbehave. To ignore me, to disappear.I slammed my fist lightly on the table.What did she even want from me?I already gave her everything she asked for.Everything.The laboratory funding she demanded. Even though it was outrageous. Even though the board complained.I still approved it without hesitation.So wh

Scarlett’s POV The convoy drove smoothly toward the hotel, and the closer we got, the more the atmosphere changed. Expensive cars lined the streets. Security guards stood at every corner. People dressed in luxury suits and gowns walked in groups, their presence alone screaming wealth and power. This wasn’t just an event. It was a gathering of the highest-ranking Alphas, CEOs, investors, and influential figures across the country. A summit for the untouchable. My fingers lightly tapped the window as I watched everything outside. Would Alpha Dominic be here too? The thought came suddenly. And my heart reacted before I could stop it. A small, strange skip. I frowned slightly at myself. Why did my heart keep doing that whenever I thought about him? It made no sense. I hadn’t seen or heard from him since the day of my father’s funeral. That was three days ago. No calls. No messages. Nothing. Not that I should expect anything. I mean, he was Alpha Domini

Scarlett Julie looked like she wanted the ground to swallow her whole. Before she could respond, a familiar voice spoke. "Julie." Alpha Raymond called her. The older Alpha had walked over during the confrontation. His expression was cold. Julie immediately paled. "F-Father." Ah. Right. I had almost forgotten. Julie was his daughter. Alpha Raymond looked utterly embarrassed. "Apologize." Julie's eyes widened. "What?" "You heard me." She stared at him. Surely expecting him to defend her. He didn't. Instead his expression hardened. "You embarrassed yourself." Her face turned red again. "But she..." "Apologize." His voice left no room for argument. Julie's fists clenched. She looked ready to explode. For a moment, I thought she would refuse. Then she noticed everyone watching. Reluctantly, she turned toward me. "I'm sorry." The words clearly hurt her. I smiled politely. "It's alright." It wasn't. But I wasn't interested in dragging it further. Al

Scarlett The applause continued for several seconds after I finished my presentation. I smiled politely and thanked everyone once again before stepping down from the stage. My heart was still beating fast. Not because I was nervous anymore. But because I had actually done it. I had stood before some of the most powerful people in the country and spoken confidently. And they had listened..Not only listened, they applauded, they respected my opinions, and they acknowledged my knowledge. For the first time in my life, I felt truly proud of myself. As I walked back toward my seat, many people nodded at me approvingly. Some even raised their glasses in my direction. I returned their greetings with a smile. When I finally reached my table, Dominic stood up. A small smile appeared on his handsome face. "You were impressive." I sat down and smiled. "Thank you." "I mean it." His voice was calm but sincere. "You spoke with confidence. Most people would have been terrifi

Scarlett's POV The moment the meeting ended, the elders slowly began leaving the council hall. Some looked worried, some looked impressed. Others looked completely shocked by my decision. I could still feel Luna Christine's gaze on my back as I walked toward the door. There had been satisfaction in her eyes. The kind of satisfaction people felt when they believed they had already won. Unfortunately for her, she had underestimated me. Again. Usher quickly caught up with me outside the hall. The large wooden doors closed behind us. For several seconds, neither of us spoke. The palace corridors were quiet. Only the sound of our footsteps echoed against the polished marble floor. Finally, Usher broke the silence. "My Lady." I looked at him. His expression was troubled. Very troubled. "Why did you accept?" I smiled slightly. "I expected that question." He stopped walking. "Then answer me honestly." I turned toward him. Usher rarely questioned my decisions.
