Ariella's POV

At the mention of the name "Alpha Matthew," I felt as if I had been struck by lightning.

"What? Alpha Matthew?" I asked in shock.

Camilla looked at me warily and asked, "You're not trying to seduce Alpha Matthew, are you?"

"No, no... I'm not interested in him."

Only then did Camilla seem to relax.

She excitedly continued, "Yeah, today we're here to discuss a partnership with Alpha Matthew. Oh my, I can't believe I'm actually going to meet him one day... Ariella, do you know how handsome Alpha Matthew is? I caught a glimpse of him from a distance at a conference once, and I was instantly stunned. I've never seen such a handsome and dashing man. And he's the most powerful Alpha right now..."

Indeed, Matthew was handsome, and I admit that. But was a man like him someone that ordinary girls like us could ever hope for?

A wave of bitterness surged in my heart.

I turned to look out the window, lost in thought as she spoke.

"Ariella, we're here."

The car quickly came to a stop

    Ariella's POVIt seemed like it had been a long time since we last met, and there was a fleeting look of longing in his eyes before he quickly hid it.He glanced at the suit on me, slightly furrowed his brow, and then gave Parker a meaningful look. I turned to look at Parker, who cleared his throat and, saying nothing, went to assist Matthew in removing his coat.I took off Parker's coat and handed it to the waiter."I apologize for being late," he said politely to the other guests."Alpha Matthew, please take a seat," the guests said, standing up and bowing slightly to him as he entered.Matthew sat at the center of the table, with Camilla and Parker on his left and right respectively, and I was seated next to Camilla.After all, Camilla and I were there to represent the hospital. Everyone knew that we were there to get close to Matthew and secure the partnership, so no one said anything."Miss Beverley, I heard you're an intern at Bayside Hospital, is that correct?" the man beside m

    Ariella's POVI had a very long dream.I dreamed of my mother and father, and my older brother.Everything was so beautiful that I was immersed in it and couldn't wake up.Suddenly, a harsh ringtone of a cellphone shattered the peace.I opened my eyes slightly, muttering to myself as I fumbled for the phone."Hello?"The next second, a gentle and familiar woman's voice came through."Matthew? Where are you?"I instantly snapped awake, looking at the phone in my hand and realizing it was Matthew's. I turned my head and saw that he too had been woken up by the ringtone, already sitting up."Sorry..." I muttered, quickly handing the phone back to him.He was still half-asleep, furrowing his brow as he took the phone, and said, "Hello."After hearing the woman's voice on the phone, he gave me a slightly uneasy glance and said, "Sorry, I don't have time."Then, he hung up.I teased him, "Who was that? Your girlfriend?"As I spoke, I was about to get up and dress, but suddenly felt a warmth

Get up!"I reached out to pull Kiley up, but she suddenly shoved me away. The next second, she scooted forward and, crying, said to my mother, "Madam, your daughter broke up with Damien a long time ago! To prevent me from being with Damien, she even tried to kill me and the child in my womb! I beg you to save me!"My mother had just come to her senses. At Kiley's words, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.She looked at me and demanded, "Ella, did you and Damien break up a long time ago?"I didn't know how to answer her. I just looked at her, tears about to fall."I see. Ella, where did you get those herbs for treating my illness? And what about all those bruises on your neck last time?"My mother was becoming more and more agitated, tears falling continuously. I knew she suspected that I had resorted to prostitution to afford the herbs and th

I felt the world spin, as if I were about to lose my hearing and sense of smell, about to faint. Not knowing what I was doing, I just wanted to escape it all, so I mechanically started running away. I ran into the forest, transformed into a wolf, and raced towards the seaside."Ella, wake up. I've given you some of my power to help you calm down. Now, slowly open your eyes."If it weren't for the gentle voice of my wolf, Lia, in my mind, I might have really lost consciousness.At that moment, I finally felt my breathing clear and felt a bit better. I slowly opened my eyes and realized that half of my body was submerged in the sea, with no one around.I had returned to human form. If I had taken two more steps into the sea, I might have drowned.Thinking about what had just happened, I covered my face and cried out loud. My tears fell into

Matthew came over and picked up the glass, bringing it to my lips."I can do it myself, thanks."I took the glass from him and took a big sip of water, finally feeling a bit better."Do you always have to be so polite with me?" He said in a low voice, seemingly a bit angry.I didn't know how to answer him. The next second, he took the glass from my hand and placed it back on the bedside table, then kissed me on the lips."I'm thirsty too." He looked at me, his eyes filled with desire.I inhaled the pleasant scent of him, thinking about everything I had gone through today, and couldn't help but cry. He asked w

I motioned for Kiley to go in alone, and I listened from outside."Jessica, I'm sorry. I want to ask you to withdraw the dismissal for Ariella," Kiley muttered, seemingly very afraid of angering Jessica."Kiley, are you insane? How could you have fooled everyone into thinking you were pregnant without me?" Jessica's tone was filled with accusation and anger. Soon, she took a deep breath and calmed down, asking Kiley, "But why have you changed your mind and want me to revoke Ariella's dismissal?"Kiley trembled and said, "She

    Ariella's POVBefore long, we arrived at the venue of the banquet.This was a private resort located on the peak of a mountain, sprawling across a vast area with especially beautiful scenery. As soon as I got out of the car, I couldn't help but marvel."How beautiful," I stood at the summit, looking down at the entire city, muttering to myself.The golden light of the setting sun enveloped the entire mountaintop. The sky slowly turned a deep blue, tinged with a faint purple, heralding the gradual arrival of night.Numerous luxury cars were parked at the entrance of the resort. The guests, dressed in opulent and elegant attire, alighted and walked together towards the interior of the resort.As I passed by others, I occasionally heard compliments about how nicely I was dressed. Each time, I turned around to smile and nod, offering my thanks."Let's go in," Parker extended his hand, indicating for me to hold onto him as we entered.I didn't refuse and politely took his arm.As we walked
