(Let Me Go, My Alpha Husband) Chapter 19
Menu
I didn’t know what Grant had been thinking. After our honeymoon, we
returned to Austin.
School began in early autumn. Jake stood at the entrance, and I was adjusting
my attire. He looked at me deeply.
“Why so formal? Casual attire is acceptable.” I couldn’t understand him.
He disagreed, pointing to his cheek. I kissed his cheek. He smiled, pleased.
“How else am I to showcase my
remarkable mate?”
I wanted to say something but let it go, urging him to the door.“Depart! Do
not be late.”
“Come now,
I am a superb healer. They are fortunate to have me! And I
graduated here with honors.” He boasted, then added, “I am excellent!”
I rolled my eyes.“You are great. Now depart.”
He went to school happily. There were rumors that he was always showing
off his bonding ring.
“Why so formal? My mate prefers it.”

“You mean my midday meal? My mate prepared it.”
“My plans for tomorrow? A meeting with my mate.”

I didn’t know about that. I was considering a new position when someone
knocked on the door. It was a delivery.
Inside was a bonding invitation. At the top were two names: Grant and
Wanda.
They were bonding. But why would they send me the invitation? To show
off? To announce he’d moved on?
I tossed it aside.
Jake saw it.“Whose invitation?”
I shrugged, trying to retrieve it from him.“Disregard it. It is meaningless.”
He raised it.“They invited us. Let us attend.” He wanted to know what Grant
meant.
The bonding ceremony was next month. It was rushed but still
well–prepared.
I never thought I would travel to Dallas with Jake. Many guests knew that I
used to be with Grant, and they whispered while seeing me and Jake.

“Remarkable. I believed Rosie would be Grant’s mate.”
“She is indeed a mate, but not Grant’s!”
“I believed she moved on, but she appears heartbroken.”

Another pup joined, “What transpired?”
“I heard the bonding was rushed because Wanda is with pup. It has been
three moon–turns!”
Three moon–turns? Rosie was still Grant’s mate at that time, was she not?”
“I do not know. But I recall Rosie stating on her network that she desired a new mate three moon–turns ago. Perhaps that is why.”
Their voices were low, but I still heard them. It turned out that Wanda was
pregnant.
I scoffed. No wonder I received that invitation.
Three moon–turns. It seemed they lied to me about not performing the bonding ritual.
