Chapter 4

I stayed near the Wolf Pack Hospital, wanting to accompany my grandmother to complete the last journey of her life.

The following morning, Vincent called me and asked if I needed him to prepare today.

I told him not to prepare anything, just come, but he still brought many generous gifts.

I planned to take him to see my grandmother. So, before going to the hospital, Vincent and I colluded on the words to deal with my grandmother.

Because I had brought Caleb to see my grandmother before, she knew that Caleb was my boyfriend.

Now, not to worry, my grandmother, I had to make up a sweet love story with Vincent.

But I didn't expect that she would not question me why I changed my boyfriend?

She and Vincent got along very well, from tribal history to inter-tribal trade, there was no topic that Vincent couldn't pick up.

Before leaving, my grandmother was even a little reluctant to let Vincent .go

She took my hand, looked at me with gentle and gratified eyes, and said, "He is good, He is much better than the previous one."

I was a little embarrassed. I didn't want my grandmother to think that I was someone who sacrificed marriage for tribal transactions, so I blushed and said,

"We fell in love at first sight, we both like each other's faces..."

"Only like the face? Don't joke, Maria. Your grandmother is not so naive that she can't tell whether he loves your face or you as a person. It's clear that he loves you from how he looks at you. I just don't know if I can hold on until the day of your wedding."

How could Vincent love me? We are just in a contractual relationship.

I didn't take my grandmother's words seriously, and quickly showed the mark on my neck and told her.

"Grandma, don't worry, he has marked me, and we will hold the wedding soon. He will announce in public that I am his mate, and you will definitely catch up."

Grandma looked at the mark on my neck and smiled slyly.

"Well, your mate is very powerful, and the smell is a bit familiar. He is the eldest son of the alpha of the Stormclaw tribe next door, right? Don't try to hide it from me."

I covered my face shyly. How did I think my grandmother would not recognize Vincent's identity? She used to be a powerful warrior, and no one is more sensitive to smell than her!

My secret was exposed. I glared at my grandmother coquettishly and left the ward with her teasing expression.

Vincent was waiting for me outside, but he seemed to be arguing with someone.

I walked closer and found that the subject of Vincent's argument was actually Caleb and Susan.

What happened? I frowned and just wanted to ask, but I heard Caleb saying something that made me heartbroken!

"If my girlfriend did something wrong, I apologize to you on her behalf. But you are such a powerful adult male wolf, can't you let her go? She will be scared of you!"

What does this mean? In Caleb's heart, Susan is his girlfriend?

Then what am I? A plaything to relieve his loneliness when Susan is not around?

Vincent's voice rang out mercilessly. "If you do something wrong, you must admit your punishment. Does she have the right to do whatever bad things she does without taking responsibility? What is the meaning of tribal laws? What you said is too ridiculous."

Caleb and Susan were refuted and speechless.

They always asked me to sacrifice my interests to take care of Susan, but others would not spoil her.

Caleb looked around, as if he was looking for an opportunity to avoid Vincent.

At this moment, he saw me. He showed a guilty and uneasy look, worried whether I had heard what he just said.

But Caleb quickly suppressed these emotions and rushed over to pull me as if nothing had happened.

"Maria, you came at the right time. Susan accidentally spilled the potion on this man's clothes just now, but he is saying that she destroyed the amulet on his clothes and is now askingus to pay hundreds of thousands! Isn't he blackmailing us?"

"Your father is an alpha, and the law enforcement team will definitely listen to your orders. Please help call the law enforcement team over and sentence this man to extortion!"

Susan kept nodding beside her, not feeling a bit guilty.

"Just those few broken lines, and he dared to ask for hundreds of thousands? Not only should he be sued for extortion, but he should also be asked to compensate me for mental damages!"

Vincent didn't seem to be in a hurry. He raised his eyebrows and asked me with a smile:. "Are they your friends?"

Vincent's smile was fascinating, but I didn't have time to appreciate it. I immediately distanced myself from Caleb. "No longer."

"I see. If it was your friend, I wouldn't pursue it. But since it's not..."

Caleb's face showed a confused expression. He didn't understand why I answered like this.

But I didn’t care what he thought, and I didn’t want to deal with all the troubles caused by Susan anymore.

"The runes on Vincent's clothes are indeed worth millions,” I told Caleb, my voice nonchalant.

"They are defensive runes carved by the most powerful wizard. As for what you said about hiring a law enforcement team? If you really wanna hire a law enforcement team, your ending will be worse than paying the money. I'm serious."

Saying, I left the hospital and never let Caleb continue to use any of my resources.

My attitude was so clear that I believed Vincent would show no mercy when asking them for compensation.

Would they come up with the money? It had nothing to do with me.

In the following days, Vincent had been busy arranging our wedding. I just wanted to buy and show a wedding dress to my grandmother.

But Vincent said his mate must look the best, and only the grandest wedding was worthy of me.

I couldn’t understand his insistence as an alpha heir, so I had to cooperate with him. Caleb, on the other hand, called me every day to ask when I would go back.

Maybe he found that I had been contacting him less and less recently, and I was making it hard to talk to him. o he started asking me about the marking and wanted to arrange the time himself. Unfortunately, now, I didn’t need him anymore.

Every time he called, I sounded busy and hung up.

Busy times always passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the day of my wedding to Vincent arrived.

I appeared at the wedding scene in a custom-made luxurious wedding dress, accompanied by the exclamations of the crowd.

A familiar voice came from behind me, with surprise and some panic.

"Maria, didn't you go to the next tribe to discuss the contract? Why are you here, and wearing a wedding dress?!"
