His Ex-Luna Is A Famous Doctor by Caroline Above Story Novel

Chapter 0034 Thats not enough , I told him .

Aria … I need more , I said .

Unless you can promise to love me , I see no other way forward for us .

Hed never be able to make that promise , and we both knew it .

Lucian had already told me he didnt know how he felt about me .

After overhearing his phone call with Sheila , I knew I wasnt the one who had his love .

Sheila did .

All I was doing was standing in the way of both of their happiness .

With me gone , theyd be free to be together .

Lucian wouldnt have to feel guilty for stringing me along anymore .

I … Lucian started , but couldnt finish .

Ill be going now , I said , and started to walk past him , having every intention of going inside , finding Jasper , and leaving this party and Lucian behind .

At the last moment , Lucian grabbed my arm , stopping me .

I turned my head and looked at him .

Too numb for hope , curiosity filled me instead .

With eyes widened slightly , he seemed surprised by his own action .

I can make it up to you , he said .

I dont know how , but Im willing to try … 10 Thats not enough , I said .

I pulled my arm forward , but his grip was firm .

Lucian .

If give me a chance … Our Luna said no , cousin , Jasper said , suddenly standing at the edge of the garden .

If hed been truthful in his promise to wait for me , he must have gotten bored .

I was glad for it , as it led to him being here now .

Youd better let the lady go .

Lucian glanced down to where his hand was on my arm , then quickly released me .

My apologies .

Its fine , I lied .

Aria , your friend Cathy called to leave a message , Jasper said .

She said Piper needed you ? I assume you know what that means .

Oh , no .

If Piper needed me , then something had gone wrong with her disguise at the hospital .

Had a difficult patient come in ? I do , I said .

I need to leave at once .

Ill drive you , Jasper offered .

Walking away from Lucian , I approached Jasper .

That would be great , thank you .

Lucians POV As I watched my wife walk away with my playboy cousin , the sense of dread that had been growing inside of me all night manifested further , stretching out to nearly every part of me .

I couldnt understand Arias attraction to Jasper .

She had always seemed like a woman with more sense than to fall for someone like Jasper .

Yes , he was popular , flirtatious , and charming in his own ways , but Aria was sensible , with a calm and steady attitude .

She should have seen straight through Jaspers antics , to the playboy beneath .

She should have realized that he only wanted her for the sake of drama and to annoy me .

No that Aria wasnt desirable , but Jasper never kept to any codes of honor .

Chapter 0034 +25 BONUS He would make Aria feel loved , and then drop her before things got serious .

Just like he always had with the women in his life previously .

With a wave of guilt , I realized I was the one who had truly pushed her to this .

Since I was unable to show her love , she searched for it somewhere else , and found it with Jasper .

If things continued this way , Aria and I would indeed divorce .

If she stopped seeing me as her mate , I could do little to convince her otherwise .

I had to find a way to turn things around and quickly .

Or I would lose her for good .
