Third person's POV
What happened at the hotel got spread online at around two in the morning.In the dead of night, Olivia's words and the sudden appearance of Marsh's true love "Lily" evoked the netizens' enthusiasm.In social networks, the speed of information dissemination was as fast as lightning.Besides, Marsh was the Alpha of the Dawn Pack, who was also the influential boss of a major company in Los Angeles. Any movement of his could attract a great deal of public attention.Olivia's actions undoubtedly cause a great stir on the Internet.The discussion around this thing had never stopped. By the second day, about seven in the morning, the topic "True Love Lily" had already made it to the trending topics list.Hailey's phone was filled with questions and screenshots sent by her friends. When she woke up and saw the news, she was also confused.She couldn't help asking herself in her heart, 'Why did Marsh hit the headline again?'WhMarsh's POVWhen I arrived, Justin was already furious.Hailey kept talking incessantly, which only fueled Justin's anger further.Now I knew. She must have been badmouthing Olivia.Justin had strong opinions about Olivia to begin with, and it had taken some time for his temper to subside a little.Now, he turned his gaze towards me, ready to speak.Just then, Hailey said, "Grandpa, is Olivia deliberately clinging to our family? She is making trouble for us as the daughter of San Francisco's richest man!"Before Hailey spoke, although Justin was angry, he hadn't reached a boiling point.But once Hailey uttered those words, he flew into a rage.Not long ago, Hunter came over with a box of gold, claiming it was Olivia's living expenses for three years. That was an accusation that we mistreated Olivia. He wanted to draw a line in the sand and even mocked our pack with that gold.Justin had always valued his pride highly. After the news that Olivia was Hunter's daughter spread, countless
Marsh's POVI wanted to rebel against the arranged marriage that Justin had planned for me. It just so happened that Lily was my girlfriend, making her the perfect choice.But later, Lily got into an accident while saving me. Before going into surgery, she cried and held onto my sleeve, asking if I would wait for her.I felt a rare pang of sympathy. Facing my girlfriend who had just saved me, I couldn't bring myself to say "no."After Lily fell into a coma and became vegetative, Justin forced me to choose between two options, which sparked my rebellion.That day, as I watched the plane carrying Lily take off into the sky, it was as if I could see a string attached to it, with Justin holding the other end.And I was like that plane.Sure enough, barely half a month after Lily went abroad, Justin arranged for me to meet the daughter of another pack's Alpha, who was considered a suitable match.I resisted in many ways, but I knew that if I left recklessly, the pack would become unstable.
Marsh's POV"What did you find?" I asked.Jeffrey remained silent.I said, "Tell me. I want to know.""The investigation results are not good. Based on what I know about you, you will be angry when you see them," Jeffrey said. After setting down the documents, he tried to leave, giving me some space.This made me realize that what he said was true.He left me alone to process the information and also to avoid my anger.Just as Jeffrey was about to turn around and leave, he noticed the stomach medicine on my desk.He quickly looked at me and asked, "Alpha Marsh, are you having a stomachache?"Not many people knew about this.Generally, werewolves didn't get sick, especially an Alpha like me.But my wolf had never been completely healthy due to an accident in my childhood.So I had been suffering from stomach problems.At that time, to avoid affecting my succession as Alpha, I kept it a secret.Jeffrey and Olivia were among the few who knew.When I heard Jeffrey's words, my hands that h
Marsh's POV"What do you mean?"I let out a cold snort. "The evidence on the surface isn't against her, but how can you be sure she's not involved?"Jeffrey felt the oppressive chill and lowered his head, too intimidated to respond.I glanced at him. "Get out!""Got it, Alpha Marsh!"Jeffrey, feeling immensely relieved, quickly turned around, closed the door behind him, and left.Once again, I was alone in the office. I sat in my chair, bowing my head, my mind filled with gloom.Stomach pain and anger intertwined within me, and suddenly, I realized how despicable Olivia was!Was this intentional?Olivia deliberately denied it, waiting for this day to mock me, right?She did it on purpose, just like that bottle of stomach medicine, mocking my ignorance!Olivia's POVI slept until almost nine before slowly waking up.As I opened my eyes, I realized that the room was dimly lit, with the curtains tightly drawn, as if shutting out the entire world.I moved slightly and struggled to sit up
Olivia's POVAfter finishing the water, I felt a bit better and decided to order some takeout and fever reducers online. Then I slumped on the couch.I stared blankly at the cat-shaped clock on the wall that Hannah had given me, watching its tail swing back and forth as my thoughts drifted away.Memories of the past flashed through my mind like a slideshow, including the accident when I was fifteen years old.Marsh's former warmth and later coldness were intertwined, making my mood increasingly heavy.And now, the weakness from being sick plunged me into a powerless daze.Suddenly, the doorbell rang, and without thinking much, I assumed it was the delivery guy with my food.When I opened the door and saw Zander, I couldn't help but freeze. "Zander?""You're not dreaming. It's me," Zander said with a smile that sparkled in the sunlight, though I had no mood to appreciate it at the moment.He reached out and touched my forehead before I could dodge, forcing me to watch as he placed his
Olivia's POVWe locked eyes for a few seconds, and in the end, I backed down.At that moment, my wolf fell into a deep sleep. My head was spinning, and tears welled up in my eyes. Instantly, I gave in."I'll go get a coat."Zander straightened up, rubbed his eyelids, and smiled at me with satisfaction, saying, "Go ahead."In March, it was still a bit cold in Los Angeles.I didn't want to go back to the Red Moon Pack to see a werewolf doctor. It would make my parents worry.So Zander took me to the hospital. When we arrived, all the doctors were busy. I breathed a sigh of relief, "The doctors are going to take a break. I'll just go back and take some fever-reducing pills."My physical condition had always been good, but this time I suddenly fell ill. Most likely, I was distracted while taking a bath at home last night, and by the time I snapped out of it, the water had already turned cold.Although werewolves had a strong physique, the intense emotional fluctuations and negligence in t
Olivia's POVMarsh didn't expect to run into Zander and me here.I caught a glimpse of him in my peripheral vision. He saw me being held in Zander's arms.I was lying in Zander's arms, showing only half of my face.Noticing his gaze, Zander slightly shifted his position and blocked Marsh's sight.Emily was next to Marsh. When she saw me in Zander's arms, she was stunned, and then suddenly rushed to Zander's side.She raised her hand and pulled me, "What did you say to Lily?"Zander failed to dodge in time. I was pulled by Emily, revealing my entire face.I opened my eyes, the sunlight was blinding, and Emily's hysterical questioning echoed in my ears.I furrowed my brows and was perplexed.I moved slightly, and suddenly a familiar male voice sounded, "Enough! Lily needs to see a doctor now!"Marsh gave Emily a cold look. After speaking, his gaze swept over me as he quickly walked into the hospital while holding Lily.Emily ran after Marsh, crying all the way, towards the hospital.I t
Olivia's POVZander, however, seemed not to get my point and glanced at me, saying, "I won't disturb you. Just go have a rest."I was speechless when I just wanted to say "You should leave".We both stood still for a while, and finally, it was Zander who spoke first, "Fever can lead to serious problems. Just go back to your room and rest. Once you get better, I won't bother you anymore."After all, he took me to the hospital, so I couldn't say anything too heartless to him.
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 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
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
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 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 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-
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
Olivia's POVMy 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
Olivia's POV"Lily's got her heart set on joining the Dawn Pack. Alpha Justin is so angry that he's in the hospital now. I doubt even if she groveled, she couldn't get into the Dawn Pack!"I gave Hannah a faint smile and said, "Don't be so sure about that."People like Alpha Justin, who's all about the bottom line, might just let Lily in one day.But what does it have to do with me?Nothing. Really.I pushed my chair back, got up, and headed to my room as Hannah called after me, "Hey, Olivia. What's up?""Get changed. I'm heading to work."I'd taken a day off yesterday, missing out on hundreds of thousands of dollars.Hannah, the lady of leisure, found my words boring.She, with all her free time, couldn't grasp the joy of working.I came out dressed and saw Hannah still there, tsking, "Why are you still here?""Your guest room bed is super comfy. I'm catching some Zs before I go. Alpha Zander woke m
