As previously planned, Aaron intended to come to the orphanage and ask Edric to postpone his entire schedule for the day. However, he unexpectedly met Aland there instead.

"Who are you looking for?" Aaron asked with a sharp gaze.

"It's none of your business" Aland answered Aaron's question, he tried to remain calm even though he felt tremendous pressure from the man in front of him.

Aaron smiled a little, but there was no warmth in that smile. "Everything that happens here is my business," he said in an intimidating tone.

Aland felt his chest tighten, but he didn't want to back down. "That sounds ridiculous," he said finally.

But that didn't change Aaron's expression one bit. Although Aland didn't say it directly, but Aaron's hunch was very strong, the man must have come with the same purpose as him; looking for Ailee.

Aaron approached, and the sound of his footsteps on the ground sounded heavy and intimidating. "I suggest you stop playing around. I don't have much patience for nonsen

    Dusk began to fall by the lake. The small wooden house where Ailee was hiding looked peaceful from the outside, but inside, the owner's mood was far from calm. Ailee was busy in the kitchen preparing a simple dinner while occasionally glancing at the triplets playing happily in the living room.After last night's incident at the orphanage, she felt a little relieved to be back home, but fear still gripped her heart. She had installed the CCTVs given to her by Mrs. Lyana in several corners of the house, but she knew it wouldn't be enough if Aaron really came looking for her.While Ailee was still deep in thought, a knock on the front door startled her. The triplets turned their heads in unison, then resumed their game."Mommy, who is it?" one of them asked in an innocent voice.Ailee wiped her wet hands with a cloth before answering. "Mommy will see. You guys stay here, okay?"She walked to the door carefully, opening the door just a little to make sure who was coming. Mrs. Lyana's fac

    The morning sun broke through the large curtains in the dining room of Aaron and Tifanny's residence. The smell of fresh coffee and toast filled the air, but the usual cold atmosphere surrounding the house remained unchanged. Tifanny sat quietly in a chair, sipping coffee as she stared at her phone screen. Her expression was calm, but her mind was in turmoil.For the past few days, she had begun to smell something strange from Aaron. The man left the house more often with the excuse of work or sudden meetings. Although Aaron was a man known for being very busy, there was something different this time - like he was on a secret mission."Zoe Ailee," Tifanny muttered softly, remembering the name. She knew the name had something to do with Aaron's past, but how deep the connection was, she couldn't be sure.She realized that Aaron would never speak honestly to her. Instead, Tifanny relied on the spies she secretly hired to dig up information. She felt this was the only way to find out the

    That morning, as usual, Ailee woke up early. The air around the lake was fresh, a light dew still on the grass. She walked into the kitchen, preparing a simple breakfast for herself and her three children-Loudy, Lowly, and Lucille. The aroma of toast filled the small room, blending with the sound of birds chirping in the background of their daily lives.The three children sat at the dining table enthusiastically, as usual. Lucille, the most cheerful among them, started the conversation."Mama, are we going to the forest again today?"Ailee smiled, though her heart was a little wary. The forest was her children's favorite place, but she never let them go unsupervised."You can, but later, when Mama's work is done. You should also stay close to home. Don't go too far," she said gently.The three of them nodded in unison. Loudy, who always felt she was more mature, added, "We promise, Ma. We'll take care of each other."Ailee looked at them with mixed feelings. The fear that had haunted

    That morning, the sun shone gently on the small lake near Ailee's house. It was peaceful, just like any other morning, but to Loudy, things were different. She sat quietly by the lake, her eyes watching her two younger siblings splashing around on the shore.Lucille looked cheerful, laughing as she rolled up her trousers, playing carefree. Lowly, on the other hand, was silent. His face showed the anxiety that had not disappeared since the night before. The image of the little wolf attacking Berry continued to haunt him.He tried to recall the incident. Lucille's form that turned into a small wolf, the low growling sound, and how the white sheep suddenly lay lifeless. Everything was so real. Lowly wanted to think it was just a nightmare, but every detail was so clear in his mind.As Lucille turned to him, the wide smile on her face looked so sweet and innocent. However, instead of returning the smile, Lowly hurriedly turned his gaze to the surface of the lake."Lowly, what's wrong with

    It had been three days since the events of that night. The atmosphere in Ailee's small house was quiet and somber, different from usual. The joyful laughter of the children that usually filled the living room was no longer heard.Lowly, who was usually just a little quiet, was now completely silent. Not a single word came out of his mouth. Even when Ailee hugged him or tried to talk to him gently, Lowly just stared blankly or nodded and shook his head if asked something.Lucille, on the other hand, was getting annoyed. She didn't understand what was going on. All she knew was that Lowly had suddenly started to move away from her, not even looking at her at all. Every time she got close, Lowly would shuffle away, as if Lucille was something to be feared."What's wrong with Lowly, Mom?" Lucille asked Ailee that morning, a frown on her face. "I don't like him like this. Did I do something wrong?"Ailee smiled gently and brushed away Lucille's messy hair. "No, dear. Lowly just... needs ti

    That morning, Mrs. Lyana arrived early. She brought a small car to pick up the three children. Lucille seemed the most excited, she had even brought a small bag with her dolls."Mama, I'm ready!" Lucille said cheerfully as she ran a little toward Ailee.Loudy came next, holding Lowly's hand who still looked pale. "Lowly's ready too, Mom," Loudy said in a calm tone, trying to sound like a responsible eldest child.Ailee lowered her head, holding both of Lowly's shoulders and looking at him deeply. "Lowly, listen to Mama carefully. It's okay, okay? You'll be safe there. Loudy and Lucille will take care of you."Lowly just nodded slowly, his eyes staring down.Ailee hugged him tightly before finally leading them to the door. "Mama will be waiting at home. Don't worry."Mrs. Lyana smiled gently at Ailee. "I'll let you know how they are. You can rest easy."Ailee smiled faintly. "Thank you, ma'am."With a heavy heart, Ailee released her three children to the orphanage. She stood at the doo

    The next day the orphanage was filled with the laughter of children playing in the courtyard. Lucille was seen running around with a cloth ball, her hair waving in the wind. She laughed happily with another girl who was older than her. On a wooden bench near a large tree, Loudy sat casually, watching her younger siblings play. However, her eyes occasionally glanced at Lowly who was still sitting alone in the corner of the yard.Lowly sat hugging his knees, his face buried between his arms. The voices of the other children did not attract his attention in the slightest. In his mind, the image of that night continued to haunt him-when Lucille turned into a little wolf and attacked his favorite white sheep, Berry."Lowly," Loudy called as she approached, "why don't you play with them?"Lowly just shook his head slowly without lifting his face.Loudy let out a long breath. "You still don't want to talk?" she asked in a soft tone.Lowly remained silent, only tightening the hug on her knees

    "I'll protect you, Lucille. No matter what happens," Lowly whispered softly, barely audible.But apparently, someone was listening."What do you mean?" A low, husky voice came from the other side of the bed.Lowly was startled, his body stiffened instantly. He turned his head and found Loudy sitting on his bed, his eyes looking at Lowly sharply. His older brother's face looked serious, more serious than usual."Loudy... I..." Lowly stammered, not knowing what to say."What did you say just now?" Loudy repeated her question. "You're going to protect Lucille? From what? What really happened?"Lowly was silent, bowing his head, not daring to look his sister in the eye. But she knew Loudy wouldn't give up so easily."Lowly, I'm your big sister. If there's something, you should tell me. We're family," Loudy said more gently this time.Lowly finally lifted his face, the look in his eyes filled with indecision. But then she took a deep breath and said softly, "Loudy...

    The night at the orphanage was quieter than usual. The cold wind blew slowly through the window slits, bringing faint whispers that slipped into every corner of the room.Inside, Ailee sat in the living room, her hands wrapped around a warm mug of tea. Her mind drifted far away, filled with worries that were hard to ignore. Opposite her, Mrs. Lyana, looked at her with great concern. The old woman had known Ailee for a long time and knew very well that she was thinking about something heavy and that it must have something to do with Aaron's arrival the other day."You look tired," Mrs. Lyana said softly.Ailee gave a small smile. "I just have a lot on my mind."In the corner of the room, Lowly, and Lucille, the five-year-old triplets, were giggling as they tried to build a tower out of wooden blocks. Watching them, Ailee felt a little calm, but her anxiety remained.Edric, Beta Aaron, sat by the window in a wary manner. The man didn't say much, but his presence was enough to provide a

    "So, you want Ailee?" Tifanny finally opened her voice.Aland stared at her for a while before smiling a little. "I don't just want her, I love her."Tifanny snorted. "Funny. Then why didn't you get it a long time ago?"Aland set his cup down quietly. His eyes stared intently at Tifanny. "Because she chose to stay away, to hide. I think she sacrificed her feelings for the sake of her children and so that Aaron wouldn't find her. I respect her decision, but I can't stay silent anymore now."Tifanny crossed her arms. "So, what's your plan? To destroy Aaron? Exploit the situation?"Aland smiled faintly. "There's no need to destroy him. If I can prove to Ailee that Aaron can't protect her well, she will choose me. And you, you just need to make sure Aaron doesn't go back to Ailee."Tifanny tilted her head. "That's easy. Aaron already divorced me, but he still has a huge burden from his father, Reynard. If I can capitalize on that, I can keep him busy."Aland nodded, as if satisfied with t

    After entering the room, Ailee sat down with mixed feelings. Lady Lyana sat beside her, while Aaron stood not far from them.The atmosphere was tense.Ailee was still trying to make sense of the situation. Aaron was getting a divorce?Why now?"I don't know what to say," Ailee muttered finally.Aaron looked at her intently. "You don't have to say anything if you don't want to."Ailee bit her lip.Aaron's divorce from Tifanny... it was none of her business.But why did her heart feel uncomfortable?Mrs. Lyana interjected, "Aaron, are you aware of the consequences of your decision?"Aaron turned to her. "Of course.""Tifanny is not an ordinary person.""I know.""And her father...""I'm ready to suffer the consequences," Aaron cut in quickly.Mrs. Lyana sighed.Ailee also looked down.Aaron's divorce could cause a lot of problems.Not only within the Louvin family, but also among the Alphas."Then what are your plans now?" asked Mrs. Lyana finally.Aaron turned his gaze to Ailee."Pick

    That morning, the atmosphere at Mrs. Lyana's orphanage was warmer than ever. The children were busy playing with the triplets, while Sunny sat in a wooden chair on the porch, watching them with a small smile on her face.Sunny decided to stay longer-at least until she could make sure Ailee and the children were okay.She knew Ailee wasn't the type to ask for help easily, but given her condition yesterday, Sunny couldn't stay silent.Then, the stillness of her morning was disturbed.From a distance, the roar of a car could be heard approaching.When it stopped in the courtyard of the orphanage, Sunny knew immediately who was coming.She rolled her eyes and chuckled softly.Aaron and Edric.Damn it.Sunny wasn't ready to face them again, especially Aaron.Aaron got out of the car first, followed by Edric, who kept his usual flat expression. Aaron's eyes swept the grounds, looking for someone.Looking for Ailee.Sunny got up from her seat and walked toward them in a defensive manner."No

    Aaron stepped into the Reynard residence with a dark aura emanating from his body. Without preamble, without formality, he stood tall before his father and spoke the sentence he had decided on from the start."I just rejected Tifanny."The room was immediately engulfed in an eerie silence.Reynard, who sat in his main chair, did not react immediately. He remained calm, too calm. His expression showed neither anger nor surprise. He just stared at Aaron with piercing eyes that were difficult to translate.Aaron began to feel uncomfortable. He had prepared for his father's wrath - yelling, threats, or even physical attacks. But all he got was an oppressive silence.Reynard should have been angry.But he didn't show it.The tension between them intensified as Reynard finally took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly.In truth, he was angry.He just didn't let it out when he remembered the reason Aaron had left this house in the first place.The woman named Ailee.And more importantly Aaron'

    That afternoon, the car Edric was driving finally arrived at Mrs. Lyana's orphanage. The building still looked the same as Ailee remembered-simple but full of warmth.As soon as Ailee got out of the car with her three children, they were greeted by an unexpected sight.On the front porch, a woman stood with her arms folded across her chest, her face showing surprise that later turned into happiness."Ailee?!"Ailee raised her face, her eyes widening when she recognized the figure. "Sunny...?"It didn't take long for the two of them to run over and hug each other tightly.Sunny patted Ailee's back with emotion, hardly believing that her best friend had finally appeared in front of her after years of disappearance."Oh my God, Ailee! I was so worried when I found out your children were missing!" she said in a shaky voice. "I wanted to find you, but I didn't know where to go either!"Ailee smiled faintly, her eyes welling up with tears. "I'm fine, Sunny. I found them... they're safe."Su

    Edric walked a few steps behind Ailee and her children, allowing them time to compose themselves after the incident at Madame Lia Louvin's house.Ailee remained silent all the way to the car parked outside the yard. She didn't object when Edric opened the door for her, didn't say a word, just stepped inside with a flat face.Her heart felt heavy.This was what she had been afraid of.She knew that she and Aaron would never be together, and today's events only emphasized that fact.All this time, she had tried so hard to stay away. She was even willing to leave the glittering entertainment world that once made her name, choosing a quieter and simpler life to raise her children alone.She did all that so that Aaron wouldn't find her.Her children were raised away from the outside world, without much interaction with other people. They often asked about the world out there, about the city, about people, but Ailee always tried to distract them.She didn't want them to be in danger.Howeve

    It was late at night when Aaron arrived at the place Edric had mentioned. It was an empty warehouse on the outskirts of the city, far away from the settlements, a perfect place to conduct interrogations without attracting attention.Apparently, Edric's men had caught them before Aaron got there. Aaron was always satisfied with the results of his beta work.Inside, three previously suspicious men were now tied to chairs with their hands tied behind their backs. Their faces were covered in bruises, proof that they didn't just give up when Aaron's men caught them. However, now they could only bow their heads, panting, as they awaited their fate.Aaron entered with heavy steps. Cold air filled the room, but the anger in his eyes was enough to make anyone feel a much more oppressive air."Who sent you?"No one answered. One of the men only raised his head slightly, looking at Aaron with a hateful look in his eyes.Aaron stepped closer, grabbing the man roughly by the hair, forcing him to l

    Aland was standing in the shade of the production crew's tent, putting on his costume for the next scene. Today's set was quite busy, with the crew passing by and some of his fellow actors practicing their lines. However, his mind is not entirely on this place. As she picked up her phone and saw the name appear on the screen, her heart sank.Daran Cam.Aland's hand tightened slightly, but he still answered the call in a flat tone. "What do you want?"On the other side, there was a small chuckle from the man. "Relax, Aland. I just want to chat."Aland snorted. "I don't have time for your games.""Don't be like that. I just wanted to tell you that Aaron still doesn't know that you were involved in the kidnapping of his children."Aland's heart beat faster. He didn't like the way Daran Cam spoke, as if the man still had control over him."I've made up my mind. I won't interfere anymore," Aland said firmly. "I did want to bring Aaron down, but I never agreed to the kidnapping of his child
