Colin, possibly not having had enough sleep, lay back down. "I have a share in this matter, but I'll handle it. I'm sorry."Eranthe didn't know what to say. "Is she crazy? "How could someone do something so outrageous?Setting aside her relationship with Colin, why would Zora target her like this?Insults and intentional harm were two completely different things. Even questioning her drug involvement was beyond belief, and it was a blatant contempt for justice.She couldn't fathom how an adult could commit such lawless acts."Last night I just found out, and I'm still dealing with it. So, whether you go to work or meet with clients, my people will be with you. Don't refuse," Colin said.Eranthe wouldn't refuse. At the moment, all she wanted was for him to take Zora straight to the police station.Perhaps overwhelmed by the sudden news, Eranthe remained silent.Colin didn't force her to speak, and with matters to attend to, after having someone take Eranthe to the company, he instruct
Eranthe was not someone to be pushed around. She had never actively harmed anyone. The Peterson's was unlucky, and she was almost tempted to celebrate with a bottle of wine. As for the eventual fate of the Miller's and the Peterson's, she believed that the law would provide a fair judgment.At the same time, she suddenly remembered a comment Dylan made about Colin: ruthless and definitely not the gentleman he appeared to be. People who offended him had a miserable fate.Eranthe recalled her recent temper with Colin, and an inexplicable chill ran down her spine.Today, after smoothly signing the contract and receiving news of Alice's arrest, when Eranthe returned home, she was still in a relaxed and pleasant mood.Colin hadn't contacted her all day, and she naturally wouldn't take the initiative to ask if he was coming.After removing her makeup, applying a face mask, and choosing a movie to watch, she picked up her phone for a casual browse.Acacia, after yesterday's scare, was back t
He couldn't hear what the man opposite her was saying, but he seemed to be making her laugh in a way she had never done before.Eranthe was sharing childhood anecdotes when Colin, unexpectedly, asked such a question. Ignoring his tone, she casually replied, "I volunteered for overtime."Colin couldn't help but laugh genuinely and angrily.Alright, she's quite something.She's even lying now!Eranthe glanced at her phone and saw that Colin didn't reply. She put the phone aside. "Want to drink?"Jayden was surprised. "You want to drink?""I occasionally drink. It helps me sleep better at night. Besides, I didn't drive today."Jayden ordered two bottles of wine, and Eranthe asked him about his life in Miami."It's just okay. I'm not used to the food there. I still prefer the food here.""Home is always the best," Eranthe sighed."You haven't been back to Tivette City for many years, right?""I go back every year. My parents are still there. I just come back on the same day."Jayden knew
In an instant, she felt herself enveloped in an embrace. Shivering all over, her vision blurred as if she had returned to sitting on the balcony railing. She couldn't stop trembling, unable to comprehend what had just happened."Where did the neighbor's little brother come from?" Colin coldly inquired, seemingly enjoying her fear.Eranthe stammered, "Former neighbor's little brother. I tutored him..."She was genuinely frightened. Was Colin a devil? What had he done to her? What did she see just now?She clung tightly to Colin's shoulders, her pupils dilated, accusing him with a mix of fear and anger."You, you're going to kill me! You're plotting murder! You devil!"Realizing that she was genuinely terrified, Colin's anger dissipated, and he resumed his gentlemanly demeanor, and reverted to a charming smile.He raised his eyebrows, "You and your neighbor's little brother got drunk? You must have been hallucinating. How could I bear to kill you?"His words were ambiguous and enticing,
As usual, every weekend, he had to go back home to accompany his elderly grandfather, the old wolf king, Luke Rodriguez.Today was no exception.As soon as he arrived home, the butler approached, "Young master, the Peterson family is here, talking to Mr. Old Rodriguez."Colin didn't stop, only saying, "Got it."He had completely blocked the Peterson family from this side, and he expected these people to come bother his grandfather.As soon as he entered the hall, people from the Peterson family saw Colin.Colin returned, and Samuel Peterson chuckled, "Colin is back."Oscar also stood up, saying, "Colin."With that, he pulled Zora, who was sitting with her head down, who had just been released on bail from the police station.Colin looked at Old Rodriguez, who was sitting nearby, and sat down, "Grandpa, how are you feeling today?"Old Rodriguez smiled, "Very good. The chef made Panellets in the kitchen today, just the way you like it, very authentic."Of course, the Rodriguez family's
"Since you've put it this way, let me be clear. Your mind might not grasp subtleties. What am I to you? You call me brother. Since I took over the Rodriguez family, have I not helped elevate the Peterson family in the human world and among various supernatural communities? Have I not made the Peterson family influential among werewolves? Have I ever mistreated your family?"Oscar hurriedly interjected, "Of course, you've never mistreated us."The Peterson family was originally in a declining state, and if it weren't for the support of the Rodriguez family, they wouldn't have the prosperity they enjoy today."Alright then. Since I haven't wronged you, what concern is it of yours who I associate with, whom I look at? What does it have to do with you? What Luna status are you trying to assert?"Zora was left speechless by his straightforward question."She bullied me, and I couldn't tolerate it.""Is resorting to framing and scheming an appropriate response? In the human world, what you
Acacia planned to chat with every handsome guy, following the principle of "better kill by mistake than let it pass."Eranthe choked, "What else can I do when you've said everything?"Leaving with three sets of sexy lingerie and swimsuits, Eranthe felt the packaging bags were a bit hot in her hands."Cheer up, babes! Sleep early tonight, then put on beautiful makeup! Tomorrow, we'll conquer the whole place!"Of course, Acacia was full of fighting spirit. "Of course, if I don't find a partner, I'll have to go on a blind date this weekend. It's better to get to know a few handsome guys. Are you sure there will be handsome guys? Otherwise, it's a waste of the accoutrement I bought with my salary.""Don't worry. If you don't like someone from our company, there are also team-building events from other companies there. We've invited quite a few partners this time." Oriel guaranteed.Then she frowned at Eranthe. "Speaking of which, baby, you're acting weird."Eranthe was suddenly called out
He wanted to tear away the layer of calmness on her face.Thinking about it, he did it."Stay back!" Eranthe suddenly said, hiding behind the wardrobe. Her head was still poking out, and she looked a bit awkward. "It's inconvenient; wait for me in the living room."Colin's face darkened. "Hiding a man? What can't I see?"Before she could angrily retort that he had a foul mouth, Colin had already stood in front of her. In this small room, everything was visible at a glance.He couldn't possibly stoop so low as to check if there was a man hiding under the bed. Glancing around, he noticed the pile of clothes on the bed and shifted his gaze back to her.She was wearing a blue and white school uniform, with slightly curled long hair tied into a ponytail.As she turned her head, her hair drew an elegant curve. The school uniform's skirt quietly and obediently hugged her legs. The loose-fitting top was not tailored, and on the blue collar, two buttons were unfastened, revealing her gracefull
