Vania's POV

"I wanted you to spare the Gilbert family and compensate them at the same time."

It is impossible for Cliff to apologize now, and apologizing in this way, which only requires moving the lips without any cost, is not worth compensating for.

Cliff said coldly, "It's impossible."

"Impossible? Well then, I will show this photo to Madam and let her know that you deceived her. Even if you came out with me today, it was to continue your relationship with her." I said calmly.

Anyway, I didn't have any loss, on the contrary, it was Melinda who had all her scholarships and living expenses cut off by the old lady.

I really couldn't imagine how Melinda would be treated if this photo fell into the hands of the old lady.

Melinda's face turned pale instantly when she heard me say that.

"Did you threaten me?"

"Yes, I was the one who threatened you."

I had no intention of wasting my breath with Cliff, after all, I was

    Vanya's POVGrace pondered for a moment, seemingly unable to believe what she had just said. She then took out her phone and dialed Theodore's number.The call was hung up after just one ring.Grace was stunned. She said to me, "He, he hung up on me."I also took out my phone and called Theodore. The call was answered after just one ring.I said in confusion, "He answered.""What?"Grace seemed to be ignited with anger and shouted into the phone, "Theodore! How could you not answer my call? I'm your sister!""I'm super angry now!"There was a brief silence on the other end of the line, followed by Theodore's calm voice, "Finished?""Yeah! Finished." Grace replied."Give the phone to Vanya," Theodore said."Okay," Grace pouted and handed me the phone.I took the phone and asked, "I heard from Grace that you're planning to get back at Alpha Cliff?""Retaliation is too strong a word.

    Vanya's POVI turned around. I was about to leave this place. It made me feel agitated.However, I heard Melinda's affected and deliberately raised voice at that moment. My anger was instantly ignited.I spun around. My gaze was coldly fixed on her, and I said, "Neighbor? You must be joking."Melinda seemed to find some support for herself and straightened her back, saying, "I live in this block too. Aren't we all neighbors?""You don't really think that everyone is on the same level just because you live in this block, do you?" I gave a faint sneer, extended my finger, and pointed to the building where Melinda lived and the one where Grace and I lived, emphasizing, "There's a huge price difference between these two buildings. Didn't Cliff tell you?"Melinda's face changed slightly. A flicker of panic crossed her eyes as she asked, "Tell me what?"Grace seized the opportunity to place her hand on my shoulder, raising her voice and say

    Wilmot's POVMy face heated up uncontrollably at Vanya's words.I quickly turned my head and said, "Don't get me wrong, I just wanted to hear some news about the Silver Moon Pack from you.""I don't know more than you do," I quickly added.Seeing that Vanya had stopped teasing me, I immediately pressed on, "What exactly happened in the Silver Moon Pack? I got insider information that the Todd family has some shady accounts leaking. Several funding chains have been cut off, and all cooperation with overseas institutions has been halted. It won't be long before the Todd family has to face institutional scrutiny. Back and forth, who knows how much they'll lose."When I mentioned overseas institutions, I noticed Vanya's reaction. It seemed like she suddenly thought of something."Could it be that you know who did it?" I stared at her closely, trying to find some clues on her face.Vanya raised an eyebrow and said, "If I knew who did it, I

    Third Person's POV"Stop pretending. It's been so long since the incident, and you never once invited us out for a meal to apologize. What's the real deal? Now you're just trying to show off that your rich boyfriend bought you a house, right?"Raven's voice was just loud enough to reach the ears of those around them. The surrounding people cast odd glances their way.Raven had previously been accused of spreading rumors by the dean and had endured quite a few disdainful looks during that time.She had no patience for Melinda now.Melinda hadn't expected Raven's reaction to be so intense, nor had she anticipated that Raven would directly expose her vanity.Her face turned pale instantly. "Raven, let's talk this through. I didn't mean it like that..."Raven scoffed, "Who wants to talk this through with you?""Raven, I know I was wrong. This time, I genuinely want to apologize to you... can you just forgive me?" Tears rolled down

    Melinda's POVI deliberately lowered my voice, pretending to be at a loss.At the mere mention of Vanya, Cliff's brows furrowed. Although he didn't say anything, I could sense his impatience."Do you not want to come?" he asked."Of course not!" My cheeks flushed as I explained, "I'm just worried that people will make wild guesses about our relationship again."Cliff didn't respond to me.Soon, Cliff and I arrived at the gala venue. There weren't many people inside. Cliff greeted the people one by one.Before long, the main doors were pushed open again.Two couples walked in, followed by Fawn and Raven, who were holding hands.They came too!In an instant, my heart dropped into the abyss. How could they be at such an important occasion?Cliff noticed the change in my expression and frowned, asking, "Melinda, are you feeling unwell? Shall I have Elliot take you home first?""I..." I was about to speak

    Third Person's POVCliff saw Vanya the moment she walked in.He also noticed Theodore, who was following behind her. That sight seemed to sting his eyes.Wilmot had been waiting inside for quite some time. Upon seeing Vanya, his eyes lit up instantly.He dropped the glass of red wine in his hand and strode quickly towards her."Why so late?"Wilmot's tone conveyed dissatisfaction, but more so, it was filled with delight.Vanya said, "Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Grace."Wilmot's expression changed slightly upon seeing Grace.Grace, however, seemed quite intrigued and said, "Wilmot? You've grown up. We've met when you were still a kid."With that, Grace reached out to tug at Wilmot's ear, but he quickly blocked her hand, exclaiming, "I'm grown up now! I'm not a kid anymore!"Vanya hadn't expected that they knew each other.Grace then explained to Vanya, "When we were kids, the Hammond fami

    Third Person's POVCliff completely ignored Vanya beside him and strode forward, swiftly picking up Melinda and holding her in his arms.He shouted, "Elliot! Go get the doctor! Hurry up!""Yes, Alpha Cliff!" Elliot glanced deeply at Melinda in Cliff's arms before rushing off.Vanya couldn't help but sneer at the sight.Melinda's fainting seemed too convenient—too perfectly timed.Anyone with even a basic understanding of the situation, including Elliot, could sense something was amiss. Only Cliff, in his concern for Melinda, failed to notice.Wilmot watched the scene with a burning heart and said to Vanya, "He just left you behind like that?""Isn't that normal?" Vanya replied, though she was genuinely surprised by Melinda's move.Raven's gaze towards Vanya grew more hostile as she watched Melinda being carried away.Vanya noticed Raven's look and raised an eyebrow.It seemed Raven and Fawn believed t

    Third Person's POVRaven was frightened by Wilmot. She retreated two steps, shrinking behind her father, Tristan Schmidt.Tristan had never seen his daughter so wronged, especially right in front of him.He immediately said, "Mr. Hammond! Raven is a girl. You should let her have the last word. How could you..."Tristan's words were cut short as Wilmot found it amusing. "Excuse me?"Everyone around them wore expressions of anticipation, as if watching a drama unfold.Who was Wilmot?From a young age, only Edwin had been able to keep him in check. No outsider had ever dared to lecture him condescendingly.Tristan's face fell as he said, "Even so, I am your elder!""Who do you think you are?"Wilmot gave Tristan no respect.In this circle, respect was only given to those who were more powerful.These were just obscure small-business owners, making a few hundred thousand a month. If it weren't for Vanya

    Third Person's POVCliff immediately pushed open the bathroom door. The room was filled with steam and a faint, sweet scent.The smell was oddly familiar to Cliff, as if he had encountered it before.But Melinda didn't give Cliff time to think. She threw herself into his arms. Feeling the smooth skin and the warm touch, Cliff shuddered and tried to push Melinda away.However, Melinda wrapped her arms around his neck. Her face was flushed with a hint of red. Her eyes were filled with desire."Alpha Cliff... I really can't live without you. Don't you like me?" Melinda's voice was unusually soft and seductive.Cliff felt an unfamiliar sensation rising within him. Just a gentle touch was enough to ignite the desire he had been suppressing."Cliff, look at me. You used to care for me the most," Melinda said, standing on her tiptoes and placing a kiss on the edge of Cliff's lips.She then teasingly ran her tongue along his lips, a mo

    Third Person's POVCalvert noticed Vanya's hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I checked. There are no cameras around here."Vanya frowned and asked, "Don't you have to go for a photoshoot?""I've finished for today, but I'll probably be around for the next few days. I still have some ads to shoot," Calvert replied."Then go ahead and get busy. I'll do the same," Vanya said, preparing to leave.But Calvert stopped her, placing the takeout bento in her hand. "It's from my grandma.""Mine?" Vanya asked, surprised.Calvert added, "She made it specially for you."Ever since Vanya had visited Calvert's home last time, his grandmother had taken a liking to her.Vanya accepted it with a bit of embarrassment. After all, it was Grandma Sutton's kind gesture."Tell her thank you for me," Vanya said, patting Calvert's shoulder as she left."Keep up the good work! Your future is bright."Calvert watched Vanya's r

    Vanya's POVGrace noticed my thoughtful expression and asked, "Did Cliff suspect you when you went back to the Silver Moon Packhouse today?""He did suspect me, but... it wasn't quite what I expected," I replied."What do you mean 'not quite what you expected'? Isn't suspicion just suspicion?" Grace hugged a pillow, her curiosity piqued as she waited for me to explain.I said, "He gave me a ring today and said... he likes me."After I finished, Grace was stunned. "Cliff?""Yes," I confirmed."This feels like something my silly brother Theo would do," Grace said, looking puzzled.I rested my chin on my hand and thought carefully before saying, "Cliff probably likes Melinda. He's saying this because of M Group. Right now, the Todd Group can't afford any more scandals. He wants to keep me stable. As long as we don't divorce or cause trouble during this period, he can avoid a lot of headaches."I repeated to myself, as if tr

    Vanya's POV"Enough! Cliff, bickering with a woman like this isn't like you. What do you really want by calling me back? Don't tell me it's because you're jealous that I was at Wilmot's birthday. I won't believe such a ridiculous thing coming out of your mouth," I said.Cliff opened his mouth but couldn't find any words."About Melinda, I was wrong about you," Cliff suddenly said.I thought I had misheard."Are you... apologizing to me?"Cliff's expression froze.I looked at him and asked again, "You didn't call me back just to apologize, did you?"Cliff was silent."I knew it was for the apology," I couldn't help but say."Vanya, you..." Cliff's face turned a bit sour.He was used to being in control and having others submit to him. Admitting he was wrong was a big step for him.Cliff tried to stay calm and said, "I was wrong about this. I shouldn't have accused you. But Melinda didn't deserve to go

    Vanya's POV"Sorry, Mr. Hammond, but Alpha Cliff sent me to bring Luna Vanya home," Elliot said, looking at me. "Luna Vanya, Alpha Cliff is very concerned about you. Please come back with us.""What if I don't want to go back?" I asked.Elliot paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'm afraid we'll have to insist."The bodyguards behind Elliot immediately stepped forward. Wilmot tightly shielded me, saying, "Don't worry, I'm here!"I wasn't actually scared. I knew that even if Elliot couldn't take me away, he wouldn't dare cause a scene at the Hammond residence.However, the fact that the Todd family could so easily enter the Hammond residence was quite surprising.It seemed that Cliff's position as the top businessman in Los Angeles was well-deserved.If things really escalated, no one would come out unscathed."Wait." I gently patted Wilmot's back and stepped in front of him. "Today is Wilmot's birthday party. Bringing

    Vanya's POVGrace, holding the skirt of her Lolita dress, ran over and said, "Wilmot's been looking for you everywhere. He's frantic. You should change out of that costume quickly. We'll head back soon!""Alright," I replied, thinking to myself that Cliff would probably send Elliot to find me any minute now.I glanced at Theodore one last time before following Grace back to the dressing room.After quickly changing and removing my makeup, I followed Grace out of the dressing room, only to bump into Wilmot, who had come to find me."What are you two doing here?" Wilmot frowned. "I couldn't find you after we entered. Where did you go?""I suddenly needed to use the restroom," I said, using the first excuse that came to mind.Hearing this, Wilmot's face seemed to flush slightly.He turned his head and said, "Let's go. There's nothing fun here anymore.""Good! Let's get out of here. I don't think there's anything fun here ei

    Third Person's POV"Unsure?" Vanya turned around in surprise at Theodore's words and said, "If he doesn't come today, then all my efforts would be in vain.""Whether he comes or not doesn't matter. As long as he knows that the M Group's masked ball is packed with guests, that's enough," Theodore replied.Vanya sensed a hint of jealousy in his tone."That's true...""But you just want to annoy him, don't you?"Vanya couldn't deny it, but she wasn't that naive."If he comes and sees that Kendrick doesn't look anything like me, he won't suspect me anymore," she said.To create the Kendrick persona, she had put in a lot of effort. This time, she planned to wear flats, don a clown outfit, and appear in front of Cliff, making him completely drop his suspicions about her."Vanya? Vanya? Are you ready?" Grace's voice called from outside the door.Vanya, now dressed as a clown, opened the door to see Grace in a Lolita outf

    Vanya's POVIn the afternoon, the Hammond family's lobby was decorated exceptionally lively.Wilmot usually surrounded himself with friends who were more like troublemakers, rarely hosting a proper birthday party.Tonight, many rich second-generation heirs and socialites had shown up, but Wilmot was completely uninterested in them.These people had simply heard that the second son of the Hammond family was celebrating his birthday and had brought gifts to get close. In reality, Wilmot couldn't even remember most of their names.I sat to one side, occasionally glancing at the clock.The masked ball had already started, and I was racking my brain for a good excuse to take Wilmot away.Just then, Edwin's personal bodyguard approached us."Alpha Edwin says there's a masked ball tonight. He wants you to attend on his behalf, but under no circumstances should you reveal your identity or let anyone know that someone from the Hammond f

    Vanya's POV"Vanya!" From a distance, Wilmot, dressed in workout clothes, ran over. He must have just finished his morning exercise.His bright red hair was particularly eye-catching, and I spotted him from far away."Up so early. Have you had breakfast yet?" he asked."Not yet," I replied, pointing to the people going in and out of the second-floor study. "Is it always like this at your place every morning?""Not usually. Things have just been busier lately," Wilmot said, taking my hand. "Come on, let's go eat.""Grace hasn't woken up yet. I should wake her up," I said."No need. Grace loves to sleep in. I'll have them make it when she gets up." Wilmot insisted.I was about to agree when he added, "Besides, Edwin should be eating too. His private chef is really good.""N-no, that's okay," I tried to decline, but Wilmot said, "What's there to be afraid of? We're all family here!"I reluctantly followed Wilmot to t
