Olivia's POV
My words made Emily's face stiffen for a moment.
But she recovered quickly.
After a slight intake of breath, she spoke again, "Alright, maybe I've misunderstood you."
She continued, "Let's talk about the apology. Could you please let us off the hook this time? Lily is very unstable right now. You might not know that she became a vegetative state to save Alpha Marsh, lying in a hospital bed for nearly five years. Before she went into surgery, Alpha Marsh personally promised her that he would mate her. But now that she's back and lucid, she found out you were once Alpha Marsh's mate, which made her think wrongly and lie about you."
Emily's expression changed slightly as she went on, "Besides, why Alpha Marsh made you his mate back then, I think you know very well. The past is the past. Now, you and Alpha Marsh have separated. You don't need to be stuck in the past. Lily did wrong, but the doctor said she has depression. Please understand
Landon's POVSoon, Wendy led me upstairs."Ms. Johnson," I said.I have been Alpha Justin's Beta for over twenty years, so I couldn't help but carry a bit of his condescending pride in my voice.Olivia let out a light hum. "Landon, the honor is all mine with your visit."Alpha Justin used to look down on Olivia. That somewhat influenced me.Even though Olivia's status has changed. She's no longer the person she was before, but we were used to belittling her.So, my attitude towards her now wasn't much better.Olivia used to treat me with great respect. It was the first time she's spoken to me in such a manner.A wave of dissatisfaction welled up in my heart. But thinking of Alpha Justin's instructions, I suppressed myself. "Ms. Johnson, Alpha Justin needs you now. Go with me."Olivia looked at me. The smile on her face faded instantly. "Landon, you certainly have a way with words. You're in my company now and you
Alpha Marsh's POVI had just finished the meeting when I saw Jeffrey standing at the door, looking at me cautiously.I gave him a cold look and said, "Go ahead, what's the matter?""Mr. White just called me. Alpha Justin wants you to return to the Dawn Pack immediately."I glanced at Jeffrey, "I see."With that, I stepped over and entered the elevator.I had a pretty good idea why Alpha Justin wanted to see me.I had anticipated part of it, but not the other."So you're saying you want me to mark Olivia again and let her continue to be the Luna of the Dawn Pack?" I asked in surprise.Alpha Justin glared at me, "Why? Do you really want that Lily to become the Luna of our Dawn Pack? She doesn't even have the bloodline of a Beta."I naturally had no intention of mating Lily. But I thought it was absolutely impossible to mate with Olivia again."Let's not discuss the new Luna for now. What you said about me re-
Olivia's POVLandon's visit was nothing more than a small episode to me.I didn't take his words from Alpha Justin seriously.After all, I was Alpha Marsh's mate for three years. I could guess some of Alpha Justin's thoughts.Compared to that, I cared more about the bidding plan for the land we were bidding on tomorrow.I rejected the plan proposed in the meeting just now. Morgan didn't dare to oppose me as he used to.I was the daughter of the Alpha of the Red Moon Pack. The entire Wonder Group was affiliated with the Red Moon Pack. Alpha Hunter had only me as a daughter.That is to say, I am the future helmsman of Wonder Group.Who dared to ignore my words now?The plan was sent back, and the relevant departments immediately started working on it.I was flipping through some documents. I was originally planning to have lunch after reviewing the remade bidding plan.However, what came faster than the biddi
Alpha Marsh's POV“... Did you just see that? The people in that private room look like Alpha Zander Wells and Olivia, the ex-wife of the CEO of Walton Group. The other day, paparazzi caught them hugging together at the hospital. After it was posted online, everyone is speculating whether they're really together!”“I glanced when I left. It was indeed Olivia and Alpha Zander in the private room! Honestly, they both have outstanding looks. As someone who prefers good looks, I think they're a perfect match. It would be quite sensible if they were together. There's been a lot of noise online recently. Isn't Mr. Walton still obsessed with his old love, that Ms. Brown, what's her name, Lily? He married Olivia to avoid a contract marriage, and now that Lily is back, he's separated from Olivia. I didn't use to like Olivia very much. However, after her being alone, she's like another person. She's cool and beautiful. Have you seen her playing the drums? Oh my
Olivia's POVWhen he looked at me like that, his deep eyes held a touch of pampering tenderness that made me feel somewhat at a loss.It was as if something gently touched me, causing a slight tremor in my heart.I put down the straw in my hand, pulled out a napkin, and lowered my head to wipe the corners of my mouth.For a moment, no one spoke. The private room was silent, with only the faint sound of the breeze blowing through the olive tree leaves outside the half-open floor-to-ceiling windows.The surroundings were peaceful, but my heart was far from calm.After a while, I put down the napkin and said, "I'm done eating.""I'll take you back to the office."I nodded politely, "Thank you."Alpha Zander glanced at me, seemingly oblivious to the sudden distance I had created. He picked up my bag beside me and said, "Let's go."I glanced at my bag but ultimately didn't speak.We had just left when I remember
Olivia's POVMy mind was blank. My legs mechanically moved forward, with only one thought - to distance myself from this place.But after just a few steps, I stumbled.As I was annoyed that I couldn't leave gracefully, my wrist was suddenly tightly grasped.I was stunned for a moment as if waking up from a dream.The next second, I was pulled into Alpha Zander's arms.The faint scent of him instantly surrounded me. I looked up at him. "He's too cruel, Alpha Zander."I was biting my teeth. My body was shaking uncontrollably.Alpha Zander raised his hand to the back of my head and pressed me to his chest. "Then you can rest assured that my breast is very soft. Just touch it if you don't believe."I was pressed by him. My face was tightly against his chest. In my ears was his steady and powerful heartbeat.Smelling the fragrance on him and listening to his heartbeat, my wolf gradually calmed down.This is a co
Emily's POVAlpha Justin arrived with such haste. His hurried footsteps were echoing in the corridor outside the ward as if carrying an undeniable sense of pressure.He stormed in and left just as quickly. The whole visit lasted no more than five minutes.The ward was once again only Lily and me.The soft "click" of the door closing in that silent space was jarring. My heart tightened."Emily, what should we do?" Lily's voice trembled slightly.Her already pale face was now devoid of color. She looked at me helplessly. Her eyes were filled with confusion and fear.My own thoughts were a chaotic mess. A tangle of thoughts was running wild in my mind.My gaze inadvertently fell on the card on the table. I noticed the edge of it reflecting a faint cold light under the light.A mix of feelings welled up in my heart.50 million was a minuscule amount for the Dawn Pack.Alpha Justin wanted to get rid of us but wa
Olivia's POVThe meeting finally came to an end. I felt my mood had completely settled.Compared to those trivial people and matters, the auction of that piece of land tomorrow was the top priority.It was something I had to go all out to deal with.I turned to Wendy and asked, "What's the situation with Cedric?" Cedric was my strongest competitor in the competition for that piece of land. I had Wendy keep a close eye on his movements.Wendy briefly reported Cedric's situation to me, "……So far, no unusual conditions have been detected."I nodded slightly, "I see."Back in the office, I quickly dealt with two urgent documents before packing up and preparing to leave Wonder Group.When I stepped out of the building, I realized it had started to rain outside.There was actually an umbrella in the office, but I was too lazy to run back up and get it at that time.Fortunately, the rain wasn't heavy, so I
Olivia's POVAfter all the procedures were completed, I immediately called Hannah.I asked her to tell Tom to withdraw those trending topics and block some keywords.Hearing this, Hannah immediately became anxious. "No way, Olivia. You're not getting mixed up with Alpha Marsh again, are you? What does it matter if Lily's actions hang out online for a few days?"I knew Hannah had misunderstood, so I quickly clarified. "No, I received a gag payment."Hannah became even more excited. "How much of it? Are you short on money? Didn't Alpha Marsh just give you three hundred million? Is that not enough? If you really need it, hold on, I'll call my mom right now. We can't just swallow this insult."I patiently waited for Hannah to finish speaking before slowly saying, "Over nine billion. If you can give me that much, then I won't swallow this insult."Hannah thought she had heard it wrong and couldn't believe it. She asked doubtfully, "Olivia,
Cedric's POVI was just about to leave when I heard Olivia's voice. My steps instinctively halted.I turned my head and watched Olivia walk towards me. I asked, "Is there anything I can do for you?"Olivia's lips curled up slightly and then she smiled, "I do need a favor from you."I raised my eyebrows, signaling her to continue."I'd like you to pass a message to Alpha Marsh for me," she said. "I have plenty of money. If he's willing to give me a few billion for free, I'll gladly accept it. That way, what's between us will be settled. As for Lily's matter, considering Alpha Marsh's generosity, I'm not inclined to dwell on it."After Olivia finished speaking, she turned and walked straight towards the transaction area.I watched Olivia's retreating figure. My mood unconsciously changed.Warwick was beside me, looking very confused.He said, "I heard every word Olivia said. I understand each one individually, but when put
Olivia's POVI woke up early in the morning.The rain from last night was still falling. The sky outside the window was dark.I pushed open the balcony door a bit. The cold, piercing wind blew in. The chill woke me up quite a bit.It was the important day for the auction of the land in the north of the city today.For this piece of land, I have put in a lot of effort over the past two months. I did a lot of preparatory work.I was determined to get it today.Perhaps because I slept well last night, I found my mood to be quite good after getting up.I carefully applied nice makeup and put on a long skirt with a blouse. I draped a camel trench coat and wore high heels on my feet.When I walked out of my home, the cold wind blew. The trench coat fluttered, making me feel particularly imposing.Wendy was also wearing a skirt today. When we walked into the auction venue in high heels, many people looked at us.T
Alpha Marsh's POVThe noise outside the door finally ceased. I stared at the empty wine glass in front of me as if my soul had been sucked out. I was dazed for a long time.Then, as if driven by some invisible force, I leaned over to pick up the decanter nearby.I poured the remaining wine into the glass like a burst flood. Then, I tilted my head back, letting the spicy liquid ravage my throat like fire. I drained it in one go.The words Olivia spoke at noon were like an extremely sharp silver blade.They were more lethal than the slap she gave me. They were deeply engraved in my mind.Even now, those words still lingered in my ears as clearly as if it was etched deep into my soul."Alpha Marsh, you make me sick!""Everyone makes mistakes when they are young. I had a naive youth, as well. So I also strayed. I admit that I once had deep feelings for you, Alpha Marsh. But that does not mean I still harbor any affection for you no
Olivia's POVThinking back now, I was really foolish."How do you know Alpha Marsh found the painting? Didn't you say you threw it in the trash?" Hannah pressed on.Actually, I didn't want to mention those annoying things that happened at noon. But since Hannah asked, I hesitated for a while and decided to tell her. "I happened to run into him at noon. He mentioned the painting.""Damn it! Alpha Marsh is such a jerk! Where does he get off? He's always doing things that make people look down on him!" Hannah was so angry that her voice trembled slightly.I could almost imagine her on the other end of the phone. She must be so angry that her hair stood on end.It seemed like she wished she could run to Alpha Marsh right now and slap him to relieve her anger.At noon, I was indeed furious and felt terrible. I almost lost control and cried in front of Alpha Marsh.But now, listening to Hannah scolding Alpha Marsh on the phone, I was
Olivia's POVIn the somewhat private space of the car, I turned my head to look at Alpha Zander.Finally, I couldn't suppress my curiosity and asked softly, "Are you curious?"Hearing my words, Alpha Zander's lips curled up slightly. It outlined a faintly charming arc, "Curious about what?""Whether Leigh is me or not?" I didn't beat around the bush anymore and directly brought up the question in my heart.Just as we approached a red light, the car slowly decelerated until it came to a stop.Alpha Zander slightly turned his head with his gaze falling directly on me. "Does it matter?"Does it matter?This sudden question left me a bit at a loss for a moment.After a brief stupor, I inexplicably laughed. "It doesn't matter."And as soon as my voice dissipated in the quiet car, Alpha Zander's deep and magnetic voice rang out again in my ear. "I'm more curious about when you plan to start a relationship."This
Olivia's POVI didn't refuse, as it was indeed inconvenient to go out in the rain without a car.I was particularly curious about what bet Hannah had made that required me to go to ONE.If Mina knew about this, she would probably argue with Hannah. After all, ONE's boss is a competitor of hers.When I arrived at ONE, it was only a little past eight in the evening. The bar wasn't too crowded yet, but the music was deafening.As soon as I entered, I couldn't help but frown.Hannah saw me from the booth and waved at me from afar. "Olivia, over here! Over here!"I glanced back at Alpha Zander and jokingly said, "Alpha Zander, do you want to play here by yourself for a while?"Alpha Zander glanced at me and replied, "You're really cruel to me."I smiled and explained, "I'm just afraid it will affect your enjoyment here."As soon as I finished speaking, Alpha Zander suddenly approached me. He almost whispered in my ear,
