Olivia's POVHunter was, after all, a CEO, and his daily schedule was packed to the brim.He said that it was hard for him to get the secretary to squeeze out a day to come to Los Angeles to visit me, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.If it weren't for the important dinner tomorrow, he would have waited for Wendy to find the source of the so-called "keeping" rumor, and then taken me to settle accounts with the initiator.But he had got an important dinner and a meeting tomorrow, so he had to go back after dinner.I had a business dinner tonight, so I couldn't send Hunter to the airport.Before leaving, Hunter repeatedly instructed that he should be informed once Wendy found out who started the rumor.I assured him over and over, and only then did he get into the waiting car at the hotel entrance.After seeing Hunter off, I got into Wendy's car and prepared for tonight's business dinner.In early March, it was still chilly in Los Angeles, and the wind at night was particular
Olivia's POVWith that, I found Wendy and said, "Wendy, please ask the driver to bring the car to the entrance. I need to use the restroom and then we can head out."Wendy nodded and quickly took out her phone to call the driver.The restroom in the banquet hall was a bit far, requiring a stroll down a long corridor to its end, followed by a left turn and a few more steps to get there.There weren't many people in the restroom, so I quickly came out and headed back towards the main hall.On my way back, there were hardly any people in the corridor, and there was a door leading to an outdoor terrace.The terrace wasn't large, maybe about 12 to 13 square meters, furnished with two coffee tables and chairs for people to rest.I could faintly hear people talking outside the terrace from about five or six meters away, but I couldn't make out what they were saying clearly. It wasn't until I reached the entrance of the terrace that I heard the two girls outside mention my name, which made me
Olivia's POVMy tone remained the same as when they apologized just now.Since Zander was here, Lucy and Rachel said nothing but glared at me with gritted teeth.Lucy muttered something, which was definitely not something nice. The two of them glanced at each other for a second and then turned around and walked away.I watched their backs and hummed lightly, "They sure ran fast."Next time, I won't just splash wine on them.I averted my gaze and noticed Zander was looking at me. I raised an eyebrow and said, "Alpha Zander, do you think that I have a bad temper?"Zander also arched his eyebrows and looked at my deep eyes with a slight smile, "No. I don't think so."I glanced at him and smiled, "I'm going back now, Alpha Zander, do as you please.""Well, I'm leaving too."So, the two of us left the small garden. Just as we got out, we ran into Marsh.Marsh looked at me and sneered coldly, "Zander, is this the kind of woman you set your eyes on?"His words were filled with malice.I look
Hunter's POVThat night, my Beta gave me feedback on the matter.I finished the call and slammed my hand on the table. "This is outrageous! The Dawn Pack had gone too far!"Luna Blanche arrived upon hearing the noise, unaware of why I had such a temper. "Alpha Hunter, why are you so mad?"We were married for thirty years, and this was the second time she saw me so angry.I looked up and glanced at my Luna, and coldly snorted, "This morning, someone sent me a photo of me and Olivia eating at a restaurant, saying that she was dating an old man! Wendy found out that it was that girl from the Dawn Pack who spread the rumor!"When Blanche was young, she never swallowed her anger. I spoiled her and she never learned to tolerate injustice. As soon as she heard about this matter, she was even angrier than me. "Book the tickets now! I'll go and settle the score with the people of the Dawn Pack tomorrow!"I had an important meeting the next day, but nothing was more important than my precious d
Olivia's POVSoon, our car entered the villa area.After half a year, I came back here again. I felt calm in my mind.Everything that I experienced here, the laughter and tears, seemed to have become a distant past. I only returned to this place with the perspective of an observer.The car arrived at the entrance of the Dawn Pack's villa, then we saw Hailey, driving a sports car, dashing at lightning speed.Hailey habitually glanced back and happened to see me getting out of the car.Her face changed slightly in an instant. A hint of panic flashed in her eyes, and she quickly drove the car into the garage.After parking the car, she almost ran out of the garage and shouted at me, "Olivia, what are you doing here?"After Hailey finished speaking, her gaze quickly fell onto the two people beside me, Hunter and Blanche.Of course, she recognized Hunter. It was the day before yesterday when she ran into us while I was having dinner with him!Blanche, on the other hand, was dressed in expe
Olivia's POVWe followed Moira into the Dawn Pack's Packhouse.Moira asked an Omega to get some coffee for us, but Hunter raised his hand and refused, "No need. We're here to settle some scores with the Dawn Pack. Forget about the coffee. After today, our two wolf packs won't be enemies or friends."People from the Dawn Pack and the Red Moon Pack were well-respected figures and had high status in society.After all, the Dawn Pack ranked first among the four wolf packs in Los Angeles, while my dad's company was the largest one in San Francisco.But I'd say the Red Moon Pack still had the upper hand.At this moment, I noticed the disdainful look on Hailey's face.I knew that Hailey was a spoiled rich girl who lived a life of luxury. She had heard about the wealthiest person in San Francisco, but she had no idea what he looked like.Thus, Hailey only felt Hunter's words were funny. When she was about to burst into laughter, she somehow turned her head slightly and noticed the look in Mar
Olivia's POVBlanche, who was standing aside, also snorted and spoke up, "Even ordinary families can treat their daughters-in-law well. Olivia is our precious daughter. But after she married into your Dawn Pack, her life turned miserable like hell!"Since you didn't like Olivia in the first place, why did you let Marsh marry her? You even watched Emily, an outsider, bully her! That day, both Olivia and Emily fell down the stairs, but you only locked Olivia up in the basement for the whole night!"What right do you have to punish her like that? Why did you constantly harm her? What did she do wrong? She has been mistreated at your Dawn Pack. You must apologize and make amends today! Otherwise, we'll make sure your shamelessness and viciousness will soon be known to everyone!"The words from Olivia's parents made Alpha Justin's face turn pale.Today, my parents and I were here to settle scores. Emily, Marsh, and his family's sins were indefensible.I looked at Justin and laughed coldly
Olivia's POVThe Hailey I knew would never apologize to me.As expected, I saw her open her mouth, ready to refuse.However, before she could say the word "no", Marsh's sharp gaze made her hold back.Though unwilling, Hailey had no choice but to reluctantly walk in front of me and my parents.Silent, I gave Hunter a glance, letting him handle it.Hunter directly raised his hand and said to Hailey sternly, "No need to apologize, Miss Walton. Even if you say 'sorry' to us, I still doubt your sincerity. About the two bad things you did to hurt Olivia. Well, Olivia has been Marsh's mate for three years after all, and you're Marsh's sister. So, my wife and I have shown some mercy and came here in person to demand your apology."Marsh furrowed his brows slightly and asked, "Alpha Hunter, what do you mean?""I hope Miss Walton can publicly apologize and admit that she has deliberately spread the rumor of Olivia being someone's mistress. If she refuses to apologize, then we'll have to let the
Third person's POVOlivia was taken aback for a moment, then she said, "That's a good thing. It's like free publicity."However, Wendy's face showed no trace of a smile, and she worriedly said, "But there are quite a few people discussing how you got that piece of land. The current talk outside is that Alpha Marsh made up a project for Mr. Barkley, and that's why he gave you the land."Olivia clicked her tongue, saying, "What they're saying is also the truth. No need to pay attention to it."She thought to herself, these gossip reporters were incredibly boring, not tracking down celebrity scandals but instead digging into her affairs.But no matter how much they dug, she would just consider it as publicity for the project. Once the project was completed and launched, it would naturally bring its own traffic, saving a sum on publicity costs.Seeing Olivia unconcerned, Wendy could not say anything more.She suspected that the Dawn Pack
Third person's POVA smug smile crept onto Justin's face as he continued, "By the way, contact the media and spread the word about Marsh seeking Cedric's help to give land to Olivia. If that boy from the Blackthorn Pack can create public opinion, so can we, right?"Landon nodded in agreement, "Yes, Alpha Justin. I'll get it done right away."Justin waved his hand again, confident that Olivia would eventually become part of the Dawn Pack.Justin's understanding and control of human nature were indeed quite precise.After returning to her room from the study, Moira sat on the edge of her bed, staring intently at the small vial Justin had given her.She seemed restless and uneasy.The fact that Justin had asked her to drug Olivia filled Moira with both fear and reluctance.However, the resolute look on Justin's face made it clear that he was determined for her to carry out this task.Torn between her feelings, Moira eventua
Third person's POVJustin glanced up at her, nodding with a tone that was still wild, "Take a seat."Once Moira had settled, Justin spoke up slowly, handing her a box from beside him as he said."As Marsh's mother, you would want him to live a happy and fulfilling life. I hold Olivia in high regard, and you've had a harmonious relationship with her in the past. Marsh has always been too proud to humble himself for reconciliation. This is when you, as his mother, need to step up and do something for him."Moira listened, her face showing a puzzled expression. "Alpha Justin, what do you mean...?"Seeing that Moira still didn't grasp his intentions, Justin felt a hint of disdain within.But considering he needed her to carry out this task, he suppressed his dissatisfaction. "No matter what, you and Olivia have been families for three years. Take the initiative to reconnect with her, to foster the bond between you two."Only then did Moir
Third person's POVPaparazzi had photographed Zander's late-night stay at Olivia's apartment. Although Zander's secretary intercepted the photos, the news still spread within their social circles.Upon hearing this, Hailey couldn't help but say during breakfast, "Alpha Justin, I think Olivia doesn't want to reconcile with Marsh anymore. She's with Alpha Zander now!""Nonsense, how can they be together? Didn't that boy from the Blackthorn Pack just have a new lover?" Justin said, frowning.Hailey scoffed disdainfully, "Who knows? They're good at playing games. They spent the night together. What else could it be?"Thinking Hailey was making things up again, Justin's face darkened, and he scolded, "Are you talking nonsense again?""I'm not! Alpha Justin, if you don't believe me, look, there are photos! My friend sent them to me!" Hailey defended herself hastily, handing her phone to Justin.Justin took the phone and saw a photo of Zande
Third person's POVHis actions, as if coaxing a child, left Olivia feeling helpless.Her lower abdomen was indeed aching badly, and after a moment of resistance, she could no longer hold on.With a hint of exhaustion in her voice, she said, "I have an early meeting tomorrow. I need to rest. Do as you please."She thought to herself, 'let him do whatever he wants.' She truly didn't have the energy to deal with him tonight.As she stood up, a hand on her waist stopped her, and in the next instant, she was pulled back onto the sofa by Zander."What are you afraid of, Olivia?"He put down the spoon and looked up at her, "Are you afraid I've put wolfsbane in this drink, or that by drinking it, you'll have to marry me?"Hearing this, Olivia's face turned even colder, and her voice hardened, "Zander, do you know that the cheapest thing in the world is being good to someone without limits?""Oh, are you saying I'm being pathetic
Third person's POVOlivia's face was pale due to menstrual cramps, and her tone was impatient."Do you have a stomachache?" Zander asked with concern.Olivia didn't answer his question but coldly said, "Is there anything else?"As soon as she finished speaking, Zander suddenly picked her up. Her body tensed instantly, filled with surprise, but at the same time, a sharp pain in her lower abdomen made her consciousness a bit dazed.She clenched her teeth, her hands unconsciously grabbing Zander's shirt, her fingers turning white from the effort."Does it hurt a lot?" Zander asked while carrying her to the sofa, looking down at her with a furrowed brow and eyes full of worry.Olivia weakly leaned on the armrest of the sofa and softly said, "Could you please get me a glass of water?""Sure." Zander let go without hesitation, placed her on the sofa, and then walked to the water dispenser, pouring a cup of warm water and bringing it
Third person's POVZander lowered his head, gazing intently at her, his long eyelashes casting a small patch of shadow under his eyes. Between the interplay of light and shadow, his eyes sparkled with a gentle smile as he said, "I used underhanded methods, just to make you stand on my side.""..."His blunt honesty left Olivia at a loss for words.Marsh, who had just followed and was about to speak, suddenly found himself as if choked by something, unable to utter a single word upon hearing Zander's words.What could he say?Could he apologize for his impulsiveness last night?But if he questioned the reason for his impulsiveness, wasn't it because Zander was kissing Olivia?Every sentence seemed like a harsh slap to his own face. Marsh stood there stupefied, and suddenly, Warwick's words from last night surfaced in his mind. "In matters of love, you really can't compete with Alpha Zander."How had he responded at the ti
Third person's POV"Indeed, I've wanted to beat you up for a long time, Alpha Marsh. We didn't finish last night. Let's continue now!"Zander was not the least bit intimidated, and in an instant, a glimmer of emerald green flashed through his eyes, a sign that his wolf was about to be unleashed.He took a fierce step forward, and with it, a powerful Alpha aura surged towards Marsh like a tidal wave.The entire space seemed to tremble under the force of this aura.Marsh was equally unyielding. His eyes narrowed into dangerous slits, and a low growl rumbled from his throat, like a battle song from the ancient wilderness.His muscles tensed, and beneath his clothes, fur seemed to be trying to break through his skin, and veins bulged on his arms.He also released his Alpha aura, clashing and pressing against Zander's power in the air, forming an invisible vortex of energy.Zander moved like lightning, rushing towards Marsh. His arm
Third person's POVAfter finishing eating, Zander got out of the car and walked around to the other side to open the door for Olivia. He then proceeded to the trunk and lifted her suitcase out with ease.Instead of handing it over, he tilted his lips into a slight smile, his eyes conveying an unyielding determination, "I'll walk you up."Seeing this, Olivia reached for her suitcase, but Zander blocked her, transferring the luggage to his other hand while leaning in slightly, emphasizing his insistence.Hearing his words, Olivia raised her delicate eyebrows, a teasing glint in her eyes, "And then for a cup of coffee?""No coffee tonight, of course. If you insist on inviting me, I'll get one," Zander raised his eyebrows, a faint, playful smile appearing on his face.The originally ambiguous atmosphere in the car, as if shrouded in a veil of gauze, seemed to be dispersed slightly by a gentle breeze.Olivia's lips curled into a polite smi
