Tabitha's POV

The one walking towards me wasn't Derek. It was Jasper.

He extended his hand towards me, asking, "I saw you on my way by. What happened? You sprained your ankle?"

I waved my hand to politely refuse his kindness and got up on my own.

Smiling helplessly, I said, "I was lost in thought. I didn't even realize I stopped here."

"The Dawn Vanguard Pack is around. If you want to, you may go check on Tucker. He misses you so much."

Of course I wouldn'tsay no to such an offer. So I nodded and followed Jasper into his car.

It was very warm inside, in stark contrast to the outside. Jasper handed me a hot latte.

"I went out to get coffee from this place. It's nice. Give it a go."

I nodded and took the latte. "Thanks."

"You're thanking me? For real? Come on, Tabitha," he smiled and turned the steering wheel with one hand.

I felt a bit strange. All of a sudden, a voice in my head rang out, telling me the latte was meant for me to

    Derek's POVI knew why Holly made a scene at my company. It was all for Daphne.I didn't fire Tabitha because I wasn't afraid of Holly. I just didn't want Tabitha to become a thorn in the side of the Amber's Eye Pack, or she might be in danger.It was also my way of punishing her.After all, she had been trying to draw a line between us.A few months ago, all I wanted was to get rid of her. Yet now that she had actually stopped bothering me, I ended up the one having trouble letting go.Whenever her distant expression emerged in my mind, I felt inexplicably restless.Tugging at my tie, I said to Rolf, "Go to Mark's place."Daphne was over the moon when seeing me. She even prepared a large table of food.Meanwhile, though Holly still pulled a long face, she kept pouring me drinks.I was polite but distant, focused on dandling Kyrian.Yet no matter how I tried, Kyrian barely laughed.

    Derek's POVTabitha reached out and pulled my fingers away from her wrist one by one. "Remember? You said I'd be the only love of your life. And you failed to keep your promise.""I..."She pulled my last finger away.Then she turned around, leaving me nothing but her back. "Derek, don't come to me again. Whether I'm alive or not has nothing to do with you anymore."After saying that, she ran off into the distance.The cherry blossom petals were so many that it was like rain, engulfing her body bit by bit.I wanted to go after her, but all of a sudden, I realized that I wasn't even qualified to do so.So what if I caught up with her? What could I say?Or maybe the more pressing question was, what could I change? The end was already written.I covered my chest. Inside, my heart was beating violently. Weird. Why was I still this uneasy?Tabitha's POVI ran into the elevator, pressed the floor button, and gasped for breath.

    Tabitha's POVInside the gift box was a phone watch in the shape of a bear.I didn't need it now.More than a decade ago, I asked Holly to buy me the most popular phone watch in the shape of a bear if I topped the final exam.The day my results came out, however, I saw her leaving with that man.It had been years. I didn't know exactly how I felt when I saw the late gift.I charged it up and wore it on my wrist.That night, I fell asleep while stroking the watch, happy as a kid who had finally received the candy she had been yearning for.It was dawn, and a new day began.I had to go to the hospital early in the morning for various checkups.It was sunny today. I looked out and silently cheered myself on.I'd be fine. Definitely.I packed my things and was just about to go out when I saw a familiar number flashing on my phone screen.It was Albert.

    Tabitha's POV"Sure. I'm about to be at the entranceto your neighborhood shortly, in fact. Just a minute away," Jasper said."I'll go downstairs now," I said.After checking the surveillance to make sure it was safe outside, I went out with my things and quickly got into the elevator.There were people all the way from the elevator to the entrance of the neighborhood. I didn't think anyone would be that bold to make a move.As the elevator descended, I became more and more nervous.The eighth floor, the seventh floor, and the sixth floor...I clutched my phone tightly. Jasper texted me, telling me that he was waiting for me at the entrance.He even sent me a smiley face, saying that I could take my time. There was no need to rush.The cute emoji made me less nervous. I smiled, feeling better.However, when I looked up, I realized that the elevator didn't stop on the first floor. It was still descending.I felt utterly uneasy aga

    Tabitha's POVI was right all along. Dad was kindness personified. He would never commit such an appalling crime.As such a thought hit me, I burst into tears.'Dad's been nice to everyone. He doesn't deserve this!'"Elena was Derek's childhood sweetheart. If he finds out about it, you're dead meat!"Albert sneered disdainfully, "Use your brain. Why would you end up here if he found out about it?"He was right.Elena had always been Derek's taboo. Bringing her up was just like tearing his old wound open. So he surely wouldn't want to look into her death again."Why? Why did you do this?" I sobbed, lowering my head helplessly."You have only yourself to blame."Me? What did I do?"Your very existence is wrong."With that, Albert lifted me up, put me on his shoulder as if I were a sack, and started walking.Having been locked up for quite some time, I felt sick already.Being lifted all of a sudden made it even worse. My stomach churned.The sound of the sea breeze died down. I guessed

    Tabitha's POVI had no idea what had happened between Ethan and Vilda.Judging from his reaction, he seemed to know her well."Where's her kid?""What the hell are you talking about?" he snapped."We examined her body. She had stretch marks, and her vagina showed signs of labor."Ethan shouted at me, "So what? She's dead already. She..."I was just about to find out more about Vilda when I heard Albert rush over. Sounded like he had put his arms around Ethan.Then he said, "Calm down. It's all over. What's the point of wasting time with her?"It was all over?Was Vilda's death a huge blow for Ethan?Why?If he was dying to see her dead, why would he be this troubled and distressed?Then Albert seemed to have taken him away. My world fell once again deadly silent.It was so quiet that my heartbeat was the only sound I could hear.I tried hard to call out to Crystal, yet she gave no response.The floor where my face touched was uneven, notwood or tile.

    Tabitha's POVI thought I'd be alone in here for a long time.Surprisingly, I heard something after a short while.Several people rushed in, dropped something, and left.Listening to the quiet breathing, I knew that another person had been brought here.Soon, the person woke up."What the hell is this place? Do you have any idea who I am? I am Luna of the Black Thorn Pack! You've got some balls kidnapping me! Derek ain't gonna let this slide!"Hearing Daphne's screechy voice, I couldn't help but frown.I didn't expect she would be kidnapped, too."Help! Someone! Help!""Save your strength. If shouting works, there'll be no kidnappers in the world," I couldn't help but say.Daphne instantly snapped, "Tabitha! You bitch! I knew it was you! You're jealous that I'm marrying Derek, so you pull this dirty trick to..."Her rant got me chuckling. "Seriously, are you delusional or just stupid? Till this point, you still don't have a

    Tabitha's POVThough I was lying on the ground in a totally embarrassing pose, I tried my best to hold my chin up."Why would you wanna play such a boring game? You really think it's fun?" I snapped.The person chuckled, "Of course. There's nothing more interesting to me than watching him kill his loved one with his choices."The thought of wriggling free crossed my mind several times. Yet I knew it wasn't the right time. If I did it now, I'd die on the spot."If you like him, play fair. Don't you feel ashamed by pulling such dirty tricks?" I snorted in a scornful tone.Even though the person did a good job at disguising, my gut told me it was a woman.If it was a man who bore a grudge against Derek, he'd be more direct and violent.No way he would spend so much time cooking up such an elaborate scheme and go all out to get Daphne and me here just to force Derek to choose between us.Only a woman would do such things, a ruthless psycho no

    Third person's POVAt the sound of the voice, Gloria's pupils dilated sharply, her face filled with terror and confusion. "Am I hallucinating? Why would I receive a call from heaven before I even get there?" Her body involuntarily shrank back, leaning against the bodyguard, her hands clutching his arm tightly."What heaven? Gloria, where are you? It's me. I'm not dead," Tabitha's voice carried a hint of urgency, her words spreading through the cold air with a tremor and ethereal quality.Gloria looked at the bodyguard, her eyes wide. "Did you hear what she said?" Her eyes were filled with anticipation and unease, her lips trembling slightly.The bodyguard, regardless of who was on the other end, noticed the drastic change in Gloria's expression and quickly played along, "She said she's not dead and asked where you are. What heaven?"He raised his voice a bit so that those around could hear.Gloria shot the bodyguard a fierce look, as if her

    Third person's POVThe bodyguard moved with the speed and agility of a hunting cheetah, leaping over various obstacles on the rooftop, his hair whipping wildly in the fierce wind, and his clothes flapping loudly.His arms swung forcefully, each stride carrying a powerful impact, and just in the nick of time, he extended his thick, tightly muscled arm and grabbed Gloria's slender wrist with an iron grip."Miss Bennett, please don't make things difficult for us. If anything happens to you, we won't be able to account for it to Alpha Leopold," the bodyguard said anxiously, his forehead veins bulging, and beads of sweat rolling down his cheeks."Pah, as long as I abandon my moral bottom line, you can't bind me with so-called responsibilities. I couldn't fight him while I was alive; when I get to hell, I will pray to Satan to grant me the most terrifying power. I will become the most evil demon and will definitely make Alpha Leopold and you guys pay! Hey, you

    Third person's POVAt the top of the Empire Building, a man furiously smashed the coffee utensils in front of him to smithereens."The estimated loss this time is 18.7 billion dollars," his assistant reported, his body trembling with fear.The cost of the massive luxury cruise ship, along with its luxurious decorations, had consumed several billion, and the various weapons, medical equipment, cargo, antiques, and treasures on board were worth nearly 20 billion dollars in fixed assets."In addition to the huge financial loss, we have also lost customers," the assistant continued."Where is Matilda?" the man asked coldly."Matilda's body was not found on the ship. She must have been taken away. Many guests are now demanding compensation, and the amount has reached several billion. Boss, how should we respond?"The man roared in anger, "Ignore them.""But if we don't compensate, won't we anger everyone?" the assistant cautiously i

    Third person's POVThe smile on Rolf's face vanished instantly, his expression becoming solemn as he asked, "Alpha Derek, are you worried he will retaliate against you?""He has deduced my identity through Tabitha. I have touched on his core interests this time. Do you think he will tolerate it easily? Just as a snake would strike at the most vulnerable part of its enemy, he will surely seize my weakness," Derek said in a deep tone."Alpha Derek, your weakness is Tabitha. He is very likely to target her," Rolf warned with concern.Derek's eyes were deep and complex, as if containing endless thoughts. He spoke slowly, "When I married her and chose to keep it a secret, it was out of concern that if my identity were ever revealed, it might bring her a lot of trouble and danger. But after so many twists and turns, she was still exposed and seized by others. Now, in addition to her enemies, my identity may become the biggest threat she faces.""What sho

Orson, I truly appreciate all your help over the past year," Tabitha expressed her gratitude.Without him, she would not have been able to reach this point, nor would she have been able to reunite with her daughter.Compared to her previous life, which was hopeless and bleak, she had now gained surprises and happiness.Orson was at a loss for words, not knowing how to explain everything to her, so he accepted her thanks. "You don't need to thank me. I haven't done anything particularly special. In any case, you must be careful in everything you do."After hanging up the phone, Orson realized that his palm was already soaked with sweat.Theodora hurriedly leaned over, her face full of concern as she asked, "How is it? Tabitha didn't suspect you, did she?"

    Third person's POVForrest's account seemed flawless at first glance, but Tabitha's heart was filled with doubts.This was not a small sum. It was three hundred million dollars, not three thousand or thirty thousand.Moreover, before the auction, no one could predict the final price, so the amount Wilmot would need to borrow would certainly far exceed three hundred million.Orson, though well-off, could hardly come up with hundreds of millions in liquid funds.Besides, she and he were merely friends, not lovers.And how could he have access to mercenaries?It wasn't that Orson couldn't do these things, but everything seemed unlikely for him.Yet, aside from Orson, who else could have lent a helping hand?It couldn't be Derek... As soon as she thought of him, Tabitha shook her head.Derek was supposedly still in Africa. He couldn't have rushed over so quickly.Even if it were him, he would have taken her awa

    Third person's POVTabitha wasn't sure how long she had been asleep, but she gradually woke from her slumber in a daze.She moved her fingers, and the numbness and weakness spread throughout her body as if every muscle was silently protesting the previous ordeal.Before even opening her eyes, her body felt as if it was being pricked by fine needles, with waves of soreness following one after another.However, a strange coolness emanated from a certain part of her body, which instantly brought her back to her senses.She slowly lifted the covers and, upon seeing the unfamiliar yet soft and comfortable pajamas, was taken aback before a blush crept onto her cheeks.She subconsciously clenched her legs, her mind involuntarily recalling the previous ambiguous scenes, thinking to herself, "He was so meticulous..."The bed was filled with a faint scent, a mix of some cleaning products and a masculine aroma, suggesting that the man had meticu

    Third person's POVAfter the mercenaries had plundered the ship's wealth, they swaggered away without a care.As dawn approached, Tabitha, still in the throes of sleep, was quietly transferred amidst the chaos.Derek, freshly groomed and composed, gently opened the door to a burst of invigorating sea breeze, the wind's caress gradually dispersing the gloom that had long lingered in his heart.The entire ship, except for the level they occupied, was in disarray. Ninety percent of the passengers had already disembarked, and the remaining ten percent were their own people. Over a hundred enforcers, tightly bound with ropes, huddled on the ground in disarray.Matilda, released from her restraints by Alvin, rushed downstairs with urgency. The restaurant, dance floor, luxury boutiques, and entertainment venues were all reduced to chaotic ruins.Stumbling and falling into the wreckage, Matilda's tears flowed as she lamented, "It's gone.
