Cliff's POV

I noticed Vanya's action, and I frowned slightly.

However, this subtle movement went unnoticed by the others at the table.

The family dinner finally came to an end, and Vanya and I walked out of the Thunder Pack hand in hand.

But as soon as we were outside, she quickly pulled her hand away.

I subconsciously looked at my empty palm, a strange discomfort welling up inside me.

After a while, Vanya asked, "Why did you come?"

I looked at her and countered, "Knowing that you would be wronged if you came alone, why did you still come by yourself?"

Vanya paused and said softly, "I asked you."

I pursed my lips and replied, "Today is Melinda's birthday. I have to go there."

"Melinda's birthday?" Vanya looked surprised, "Then why did you come here?"

She now seemed to accept that Melinda held a special place in my heart.

But hearing Vanya's tone, I couldn't help but frown and explained, "The Dalton family's dinner concerns the relationship between the Todd and Dalton families. For var

  • Contract With Alpha Theodore   Chapter 350

    Third Person's POVZander gripped Melinda's hand, secretly increasing the pressure, his eyes full of menace.But Melinda acted as if she didn't notice, smiling. "Yes, I finally got what I wanted, and I have you to thank—how could I have married Cliff so smoothly without you?"Melinda turned to Cyrus. "Dad, you'll have to thank Zander properly later.""Of course, Zander is like a son to me."Cyrus patted Zander's shoulder. "We have other guests to attend to. Excuse us for a moment."Cyrus's words were clearly a courtesy dismissal.Zander immediately understood the underlying meaning.He frowned. "Cyrus, are you being distant with me?"For years, Zander had treated Cyrus like his own father, and outsiders assumed Zander would be Cyrus's successor.But now that Ella was found, Cyrus was turning around and marrying his daughter off to Cliff, clearly intending to cut Zander out."How could I? Don't overthi

    Third Person's POVCliff pushed the document toward Vanya.She took it and examined the terms carefully.The terms were different from before. The Todds would give Vanya a divorce settlement, but the agreement came with conditions.To maintain the Todd family's image, the divorce had to be kept strictly confidential for six months, during which they had to publicly claim to have reconciled and renewed their vows.Furthermore, Vanya had to appropriately maintain a public image of intimacy with Cliff when in public. After the divorce, both parties were to have absolutely no financial involvement.Finally, Vanya was forbidden from using public opinion to slander the Todds. To protect both their images and prevent unnecessary speculation, neither party could marry anyone else for one year after the finalization.Vanya looked at the divorce agreement and couldn't help but feel amused. "Cliff, are you joking with me?""I've already s

    Third Person's POVNo one had ever dared to speak so wildly to Elliot before. It was utter ignorance.Elliot just smiled. "What would you like, Miss Schultz?""I want you to apologize to me in public, of course!"Winn knew Elliot worked for Cliff, so she dared not ask for too much.Others might not realize it, but Vanya knew that asking for just an apology was restrained for someone with Winn's temper.However, Winn didn't realize that Elliot was Cliff's core subordinate, and forcing him to apologize was tantamount to humiliating Cliff.Vanya said calmly, "Elliot, don't waste time with her. Let's go.""Yes, Miss Dalton."As they left, Elliot signaled to two guards near the door. The guards immediately moved to escort Winn away.Winn struggled and yelled, "Let go of me! How dare you touch me!"Everyone around them was watching Winn as if she were a joke, but Winn was completely oblivious.Trina instin

    Third Person's POVAs expected, Winn's custom-made evening gown became the focal point of the entire hall the moment she entered.She'd probably spent over a million on the dress. In a different setting, Winn might have truly caused a sensation.However, at this specific event, she would soon pay a heavy price for that expensive gown.Winn, completely oblivious to the impending trouble, was busy sipping fine wine.Trina fawned over her. "Winn, you look so beautiful in that dress. Everyone is looking at you. I just wonder where Kendrick is. If he were here, he'd be absolutely mesmerized by you."Puffed up by Trina's flattery, Winn grew more smug. "You always know what to say. If I do manage to win Kendrick's favor, I'll give you a chance to debut."Trina's eyes lit up. "Really? Winn, you're the best!"Winn was long accustomed to Trina's flattery.When she saw Vanya walk into the Todd estate, an expression of displeasure c

    Third Person's POVNo one was unaware of the relationship between Vanya and Cliff.The fact that Cliff was holding a gala to announce his engagement to Melinda, yet sent an invitation to his still-un-divorced wife, was profoundly ironic.Missing this opportunity for public humiliation wouldn't be a loss for Vanya.Vanya looked at the invitation and asked, "Is this invitation for me, or for Kendrick?""It's for you, and also... for Kendrick."Stewart placed another invitation in Vanya's hand.The outside world didn't know Vanya was Kendrick, and Cliff was unaware, too.Therefore, he had sent two invitations.The question of whether Vanya should attend as Vanya or as Kendrick became a difficult one."Alpha Cliff is getting engaged to Miss Chambers. It's a joyful occasion, and I should go.""Vanya...""But not as Vanya. As Kendrick."Vanya smiled and looked at Stewart. "Is Calvert's injury better?""Much better.""That's good." Vanya instructed, "Have Calvert get ready.""Vanya, Calvert

    Third Person's POVNow, Mr. Schultz understood everything."Vanya, just tell me! Anything I can do, I'll do it!"Vanya took a contract from her bag and handed it to Mr. Schultz. "Sign Megan.""What?"Mr. Schultz took the contract, stunned.Sign Megan?He had already fired Megan. Why would he suddenly need to sign her back?The contract clearly stated that Megan was to be signed as a trainee for the Hammond Pictures. Megan had already signed it; all it needed was Mr. Schultz's signature and the company seal to make it legal."But the trainee program has completely failed now. Even if the company signs Megan, there's no way she can debut..."The program had run out of funds, and only Winn and Trina were left.The project would be completely disbanded in a few days.Joining the trainee program now was pointless.Vanya said, "If you sign Megan, I've kept my promise to her.
