Nathan's eyes filled with confusion. As a werewolf, his heightened senses could detect a distinct change in Isabella's demeanor. The Isabella he once knew was utterly dependent on him, relying on him for every meal. Yet now, she seemed capable of taking care of herself, and there was a newfound strength in her aura that he couldn't quite place.

Inside the hospital room, Isabella, though starving to the point of feeling hollow, lost her appetite as she stared at the array of food delivered by the takeout worker. Her hand gently rested on her stomach, a secret known only to her. Her werewolf heritage gave her a naturally robust digestive system, and she knew that the nausea wasn't due to a simple cold.

Memories from three months ago resurfaced—Nathan begging her to donate a kidney to Victoria. That same night, she had foolishly pleaded for his attention. Now, it was very likely that a new life, a werewolf pup, was forming in her womb. The thought filled her with a mix of dread and resignation. A faint, bitter smile crossed her pale lips. This child couldn't have come at a worse time.

When Nathan entered, Isabella was gazing out the window, her face ashen but her voice unwavering and resolute.  

“Nathan, can you get me some mifepristone pills?”

Nathan froze in place. The timid girl who had once been cautious around him was now giving him orders? His werewolf instincts were on high alert, sensing something amiss. He masked his reaction. “What for?”

“My period started. I have cramps,” Isabella replied, turning toward him. “Please.”

His gaze fell on her hand, which was pressed against her lower abdomen. Almost involuntarily, he nodded.  

“Alright.”

Watching him leave, Isabella’s once - clear eyes grew shadowed. As a werewolf, she knew the implications of what she was about to do. The decision to end the pregnancy was not an easy one, but she couldn't bear the thought of bringing a child into a world where they might not be loved.

Nathan stepped out of the room and called his assistant.  

“Buy some mifepristone pills and deliver them to the hospital.”

Before long, Isabella received an entire bottle of pills, courtesy of the assistant.

That night, the hospital corridors were eerily quiet. In Victoria's room, Nathan comforted her tenderly.  

“Victoria, your life is hard - won. You must cherish it. No more reckless behavior.”

Victoria, pale and frail, held his hand tightly. Despite her weakened state, love radiated from her being.  

“Nathan, you know how much I love you… Without you, life is meaningless. So, you can’t leave me.”

“Alright,” he reassured her. “I’ll always stay by your side. You just need to recover quickly.”

Meanwhile, in another room, Isabella curled up on her bed, staring at the blank ceiling. She felt an emptiness within her body, an ache that mirrored her soul. As a werewolf, she was more attuned to the loss of the potential life within her. Tears, warm and silent, slipped from the corners of her eyes.

When her bedspread was stained red with blood, she closed her eyes, a solitary tear sliding down her cheek. It was not sorrow but relief. She was finally free. She and Nathan now had no further ties.

The next day, Nathan’s assistant arrived with Isabella’s luggage, her passport, and a bank card.  

“Madam,” the assistant stammered, “the president has arranged everything. Your flight is at 7 a.m.”

Isabella, weak and weary, barely managed to speak.  

“He’s not coming to see me off?”  

“Your Sis had a fit last night,” the assistant explained awkwardly. “The president couldn’t leave her.”

Isabella’s reaction was void of disappointment, as if she had expected it all along.  

“I see.”

The assistant handed her the card.  

“This is your living allowance. The president will come to bring you back in three months. He’s also arranged for a Chinese couple to take care of you abroad…”

But Isabella refused the card. Struggling to her feet, she deliberately donned the old clothes she had brought into the Hill household four years ago. Packing her new clothes and luggage into the assistant’s hands, she walked out, her spine straight, without looking back.

“Madam, what are you doing?” The assistant was dumbfounded.  

Isabella’s voice was faint but firm.  

“I don’t need anything else. Just throw it away.”

The assistant was stunned.  

“Madam, at least take the card,” he insisted.

Reluctantly, Isabella took it.

At the international airport, the assistant escorted her to the security checkpoint.  

“Madam, I can only accompany you this far. Please take care of yourself.”

Ignoring him, Isabella moved quickly, as though eager to leave everything behind. But before disappearing into the checkpoint, she did something shocking: she threw the bank card into the trash.

The assistant froze. In that moment, he realized she was severing ties. She had reached her breaking point, recognized her place in Nathan’s heart, and was resolute about leaving his world for good.

Back at the Hill family villa, Nathan returned home exhausted after spending most of the day comforting Victoria. The assistant was waiting for him, luggage in tow. The sight made Nathan’s expression darken instantly.  

“What’s going on? Didn’t I tell her to leave immediately? Why is her luggage still here?”  

“She’s already gone,” the assistant assured him.

Nathan eyed the assistant suspiciously.  

“Then what’s this?”

“She didn’t want these things,” the assistant explained nervously.

For a brief moment, Nathan felt a pang in his chest, an inexplicable discomfort. His werewolf instincts were telling him that something was different, that Isabella was truly gone. But he quickly dismissed it.  

“She didn’t take the old clothes because she plans to buy new ones with the money I gave her.” He scoffed. “Four years of luxury, and I’ve raised her into someone extravagant.”

But the assistant poured cold water on his theory.  

“President, she threw the bank card into the trash after passing through the checkpoint.”

Nathan’s expression froze, his face resembling a cracked sculpture. After a long silence, he chuckled bitterly.  

“She’s throwing a tantrum? Upset that I neglected her? Hmph, when she calms down, I’ll bring her back.”

“Who gave her the courage to challenge me?”

The housekeeper, a long - time family servant, interjected with a teasing remark.  

“Sir, the madam just had surgery. Sending her abroad now might make her resent you. Aren’t you worried?”  

The housekeeper liked Isabella, finding her gentle and considerate, never causing trouble for the staff.  

Nathan’s expression remained unreadable. The housekeeper’s words echoed in his mind, and for the first time, he began to wonder if he had made a grave mistake.

    When someone unexpectedly mentioned Isabella, Nathan suddenly realized that it had been days since Isabella last contacted him. Not a single text or voice message. Finally, he sensed something was off. As a werewolf, his instincts were usually sharp, but his preoccupation with Victoria had clouded his perception. After all, that girl had always been clingy. Even if they saw each other daily, whenever she couldn’t see him, she’d find all sorts of excuses to reach out—sharing her meals, reminding him to dress warmly, or asking him to come home early because she had a surprise for him. Back then, he found her relentless attention annoying. This kind of silence from Isabella was unusual. It seemed that forcing her to go abroad this time had genuinely angered her.Even if she didn’t contact him, surely she would ask someone for her living expenses. Turning to his assistant, Nathan asked, "How’s my wife doing lately? Has she mentioned needing anything? Make sure her requests are met."The a

    Nathan's expression gradually softened as he assisted Victoria into the doctor’s office. After reviewing Victoria’s medical report, the doctor did not say much at first, but his serious demeanor shifted as he turned to Nathan.“Where is Mrs. Hill’s medical report?” the doctor inquired solemnly.Nathan Hill, who had just calmed down, felt his mood darken once again. Victoria quickly answered for him. “Oh, my Sis is abroad.”The doctor frowned. “Even though Mrs. Hill is the donor, her health cannot be neglected. Furthermore,” he continued, revealing a hidden concern, “the day she was discharged, I found her bed sheets and bedding stained with blood during my rounds. Several days post - surgery, there shouldn’t have been such heavy bleeding. This suggests a complication.”“Mr. Hill, could it be that Mrs. Hill has other health issues? You should urge her to return for a check - up to rule out potential hidden conditions. Truthfully, she was too weak to be discharged in the first place,” t

The untamed wolf that had yet to grow into its fangs was now an irresistible, doe - eyed pup in the form of Theodore. His presence was both a comfort and a temptation, but Isabella's thoughts were clouded by the memory of the dark emperor, a peerless figure of earthly beauty who reigned at the pinnacle of the werewolf pyramid, as unattainable as the lofty flower perched on the highest peak.Isabella ultimately backed down. She couldn't afford to take that risk, not in a world where the wrong move could lead to unforeseen consequences. "No need," she said lightly. "For now, I'll stick to what I know best—women's fashion."Theodore's face revealed a trace of hurt.

    In the complex tapestry of the werewolf - human world, Nathan couldn't shake an inexplicable sense of unease as he absently scrolled through his chat history with Isabella. The digital conversations, once filled with her daily musings, now seemed like a distant memory.Back in the day, Isabella, a human in a world where werewolves held significant power, would reach out to him almost daily. Her good morning and good night messages were a constant, and she'd eagerly share every little detail of her life—the scenery she witnessed, the food she tasted. To Nathan, a werewolf accustomed to a more reserved form of communication, her openness had felt annoyingly clingy. But ever since he had sent her abroad, it was as if she had vanished into the shadows, much like a human trying to hide from the werewolf gaze. She hadn't sent him a single message since then.How had he not noticed such a drastic change in her behavior until now? The depth of his neglect towards Isabella was becoming glaring

    One of Nathan’s friends playfully slapped him on the shoulder and jested, “Nathan, you’d better hustle and bring Isabella back pronto. Imagine if one day she waltzes back, pregnant and demanding a divorce. You’d be left high and dry, bawling your eyes out.” “Plus, if the great Nathan gets ditched by Isabella, it’d be a real hit to your werewolf - enhanced reputation.” Nathan gritted his teeth, muttering, “She wouldn’t dare...” Ultimately, perhaps under the mounting pressure of the impending company gala, a significant event in the werewolf - human business calendar, Nathan decided to yield. “Noah, book me a flight to the U.S. And get some top - notch gifts for my wife,” he commanded, his werewolf pride slightly bruised but his sense of duty to maintain appearances kicking in. His assistant, whose face betrayed no emotion, replied, “Yes, sir.” The next day. Nathan boarded a flight to the U.S., clutching a ragdoll cat as a gift his assistant had procured. The cat, with its

"Nathan, what will happen to your company?" Victoria asked with concern, her voice carrying the worry of a wolf cub for its leader. Nathan, who had once been so confident at the business table, was now utterly dispirited. "If Isabella doesn't withdraw from this competition, I will most likely lose.
