Chapter 88 Call Her Mrs. Nocturne

Eva was horrified though and gasped loudly, covering her mouth in horror.

“Eva, you have to trust me on this that I know exactly what I’m doing. I just need you

to do everything that I say, when I say it. For now, we remain silent. Not a word to

anyone. Do you understand? ” Ann said, her expression serious.

Eva nodded furiously.

“Of course! I’ll make the copy now and head home Miss Veritas.”

Adam growled suddenly and scowled at Eva, making her jump violently and the color

drain from her face.

“Don’t call her that again. She isn’t Ann Veritas anymore, and she hasn’t been for a

long time. She is my wife and Luna of the Dark Moon Pack, and as such, you will call

her Mrs. Nocturne.”

As the day of the trial rapidly approached, Ann found herself fascinated with the daily

release of sensationalist articles designed to tarnish her reputation even further.

She laughed loudly at some of the wild theories that the writers came up with,

questioning every little thing that she had done from as early as her childhood, and

making up fanciful and far-reaching explanations for every misstep she made.

The only articles that really bothered her, were the ones that questioned whether or

not she had been responsible for her mother’s death.

Adam had caught her sobbing when she first read the article and wrenched the phone

away from her before wrapping her in his arms. He had begged her to let him deal

with them personally, but she refused.
