The Billionaire Alpha’s Farming Luna: Too Late to Please the Herbal Queen! Chapter 08

Suspicious glances immediately turned toward Nell.

Nell’s face flushed bright red as she stammered.

“B-Because I changed clothes in the attic once. That’s my privacy, and if others see it…”

I let out a cold laugh, but before I could even retort, Bram spoke up with pure mockery.

“Do you truly believe everyone wishes to admire your vulgar figure, Miss Ashford? I only want to see last night’s footage.”

Nell’s face burned with intense humiliation. This time, her tears were born from genuine embarrassment.

“You… you…”

With a wave of Bram’s hand, two guards immediately began retrieving last night’s surveillance footage.

Calder wanted to shout in protest.

However, Bram unleashed his Alpha aura, completely terrifying Calder into absolute submission.

Within a few seconds, the high-definition screen overhead flickered to life.

Nell’s smug, malicious face appeared crystal clear.

She violently ripped off the necklace, threw it onto the floor, and shrieked.

“Maren! Mom gave this to me! How could you destroy it?”

Then came her wailing.

Next, Calder entered the frame, violently slapping my face and roaring that I wanted to steal Nell’s things.

Then Graham appeared on screen, his face dark with rage as he scolded me for being uneducated and ordered me to kneel in the garden for three hours.

The footage fast-forwarded, showing Nell throwing a pile of ragged clothes onto my face…

Bram’s eyes darkened. He turned slowly to face Graham and the others.

“What a remarkable set of rules you have here at the Ashford Pack.”

“Did you really think my Luna needed your discipline?”

“With that kind of judgment, you don’t belong in high society. If anyone should be sent back to the sticks, it’s you.”

Graham turned deathly pale, instantly realizing he was completely finished.

Thud!

He dropped to his knees.

“Honorable Alpha Bram, it was all a moment of foolishness! Please… for Maren’s sake, forgive me.”

“I promise you, I’ll make sure Nell is severely punished. She will answer to Maren for what she did!”

With that, he turned and roared fiercely.

“You ungrateful wretch! I kindly adopted you and raised you to adulthood, yet your mind is so wicked that you dared to drive away my biological daughter?”

“Guards! Drag her outside. Give her thirty lashes… no, fifty lashes! From this day forward, the Ashford Pack cuts all ties with her.”

Several warriors stepped forward expressionlessly, dragging Nell toward the exit.

Nell screamed and shrieked furiously.

“Dad! You can’t do this to me! I’m the future Luna of the Greaves Pack! Harlan will make you pay when he finds out!”

Just then, a tall, thin man stepped out from the crowd, bowing slightly to Graham.

“I had no idea Nell was such a treacherous person. The Greaves Pack has no use for someone like her.”

“From this day forward, I break all bonds with her!”

By the door, Nell panicked, screaming hysterically.

“Harlan! You can’t do this to me! You said you loved me most! You promised to protect me forever!”

Bang!

The heavy doors slammed shut, cutting off her voice completely.

Harlan walked up to me, speaking with deep respect.

“Luna Maren, I’m deeply sorry. It was my failure to properly educate my mate that caused you to suffer. The Greaves Pack is willing to accept any punishment.”

I nodded slightly. “It wasn’t your fault.”

As a gesture of apology, the Greaves Pack presented me with two boxes of rare herbs.

Perfect. I could take them back to research new formulas.

Graham remained on his knees, looking up at me pleadingly.

Calder stood there with a deathly pale face, his lips trembling.

I didn’t care to look at them any longer. Turning to Bram, I said.

“This place is disgusting. Let’s go home.”

“Alright.”

Bram tenderly took my hand and led me toward the exit.

The guests immediately swarmed around us, scrambling to curry favor.

“Alpha Bram, since you’re here, won’t you stay for a drink?”

“Alpha Bram, I’ve been dying to pick your brain about your latest research. We would be honored to host you at our pack sometime.”

Bram nodded slightly, his tone flat and even.

“My Luna is not feeling well today. Another time.”

With that, he wrapped his arm around my waist, guiding me calmly out of the house.

The moment I stepped outside, furious shouting instantly erupted from the house behind us.

“You fool! Look at what you’ve done—all because you couldn’t keep your mouth shut! You just had to go on about ‘disciplining Maren.’ Now it’s all over!”

“What are we supposed to do now?”
