THE CURSED LUNA

Chapter 37



Amira pov

I have no interest in engaging with your company if your wife, Sheelah, poses an obstacle to us pursuing our agreement elsewhere, I stated, my gaze fixed on the booklet presented to me, a wave of discomfort washing over me. The atmosphere was thick with the tension of my anger directed at Alpha Christian's family. The expressions on the faces of the three individuals, who appeared both foolish and dangerous, were so intense that Luna Viviana had to shift in her seat. "Emily, we do not comprehend the threat; could you please clarify?" she inquired, attempting to maintain a casual demeanor despite the circumstances.

I adjusted my posture, leaning back. "There is nothing to clarify. Your family's dealings with my company will cease if you persist with the Amira identity in relation to me. I am utterly exhausted, particularly due to Sheelah's outrageous interference in my business. It is intolerable," I replied calmly, maintaining my gaze on Sheelah, who was equally unyielding in her stare.

"Please, Emily, do not take this course of action; it would not be wise. We apologize for any inconvenience; I would prefer to resolve our differences," Alpha Christian murmured, his voice barely above a whisper yet filled with sincerity. I remained indifferent. Luna Viviana, Sheelah, and Arian are the most irritating and malevolent individuals I have ever encountered.

"Alpha Christian, I cannot even entertain the thought."

Alpha Christian's eyes widened, revealing a blend of astonishment and worry. "Emily, I urge you to reconsider. We can navigate through this. Sheelah, perhaps you could-"

Sheelah interrupted him, her tone laced with hostility. "I refuse to be silenced, Christian. Emily's threats do not frighten me."

I rose from my seat, the chair scraping against the floor. "I am not attempting to frighten you, Sheelah. I am merely presenting the facts. Your interference has cost me valuable time and resources. I will not endure it any longer." Luna Viviana placed a gentle hand on Sheelah's arm, her voice calm yet insistent. "Sheelah, let us not escalate this situation. We can discover a resolution that benefits all parties."

However, Sheelah shrugged her off, her eyes fixed on mine. "You are making a grave error, Emily. You will come to regret this."

I turned to Alpha Christian, my tone resolute. "I expect to receive a written confirmation of the termination of our agreement by the end of the day. Should I fail to receive it, I will pursue legal action."This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

Luna Viviana's voice rang out, filled with indignation, "Just imagine the audacity in Emily's tone; she is nothing but a sycophant."

I shifted my gaze towards her, but Tris interjected. "Please, let us discuss this." He continued, "Alpha, we truly apologize..." I interrupted Tris as he began his apology.

"What is the matter with you? Why would you suggest that I apologize to them when I am the owner of the company and they are merely my business associates? I have the authority to terminate the contract at any time, understood?" Tris's expression shifted to one of surprise, clearly taken aback by my sudden outburst. "Emily, I was merely attempting to-"

"No, Tris," I interrupted, maintaining a steady yet assertive tone. "I refuse to be influenced by their hollow apologies and feigned friendliness. They have had more than enough chances to rectify their mistakes, and they have failed." Alpha Christian's complexion darkened, his jaw tightening in irritation. "Emily, your stance is unreasonable. We have committed substantial resources to this collaboration." "Unreasonable?" I echoed, my laughter devoid of warmth. "You are entirely unaware of what true unreasonableness entails, Alpha. Should you persist, I will demonstrate it to you."

Sheelah's expression twisted into a sneer, her voice laced with venom. "You are making a grave error, Emily. We possess powerful allies. You will come to regret opposing us."

I leaned in closer, my gaze unwavering as I met Sheelah's eyes. "I am trembling in fear. Bring it on, Sheelah. I will dismantle you effortlessly."

The atmosphere in the room grew heavy with silence, the tension palpable. Tris shifted uneasily in his chair, his gaze flitting between us. Luna Viviana maintained a neutral demeanor, though a hint of concern flickered in her eyes. The frustration of being pregnant with Alpha Christian and concealing it was consuming me. I contemplated my options, yet I resolved to maintain the secrecy while also terminating the contract with them, which must be executed. I faced them and expressed my discontent. "Tris, the contract needs to be terminated. I cannot continue to disregard straightforward instructions while they persist in accusing me of being their long-lost Amira."

Tris's eyes widened, revealing a blend of shock and concern on his face. "Emily, are you absolutely sure? Ending the contract will lead to serious repercussions for both sides."

I nodded, my jaw clenched. "I understand the consequences, Tris. However, I refuse to tolerate disrespect and manipulation any longer. They have crossed the line."

Alpha Christian's face flushed with anger, his voice escalating. "You cannot simply terminate the contract! We have responsibilities and commitments-"

"I can and I will," I interjected, my tone resolute. "You have not fulfilled your responsibilities, and I will not be a prisoner to your incompetence. Tris, please prepare the necessary paperwork. I want this contract dissolved by the end of the week." Luna Viviana's gaze sharpened, her voice laced with venom. "You will come to regret this, Emily. We will ensure it."

I responded with a cold, calculated smile. "Your threats do not intimidate me. You have attempted to bully me for the last time."

Sheelah scoffed, her expression filled with disdain. "Do you really believe you hold any power, Emily? You are unaware of what we are capable of."

I leaned in closer, my gaze fixed on Sheelah's. "I am not afraid of you, Sheelah. Nor am I intimidated by your secrets. In fact, I possess secrets of my own-secrets that could obliterate everything you cherish."

The room fell into a heavy silence, the tension palpable. Alpha Christian's eyes narrowed, his expression calculating. "What are you implying, Emily?"
