Russell's POV

Zoey replied with a smile, "Sure."

I noticed Zoey's attention being drawn away by Abigail again, and a wave of impatience flashed through me, my brows furrowing.

Zoey sensed my mood shift and soothingly held my hand, half-jokingly saying, "Knowing you also need styling, we could have just called the stylist to Serene Manor. Caroline is there too. If she were awake, she'd surely want to look beautiful for the birthday banquet."

"Caroline?" Abigail started, surprised, "You mean?"

I lifted my eyelids and said to her, "Caroline is currently residing at Serene Manor."

"What?" Abigail was shocked.

In the spacious restaurant, Abigail's astonished voice immediately drew attention.

Many eyes turned to her at once, as she was a public figure.

She realized this and quickly raised her hand to shield her face, trying to block the curious glances.

I looked at her meaningfully and asked, "Why are you so nervous?"

Abigail quickly composed herself, forcing a smile and explain

    Zoey's POV I glanced up and noticed it was a design by Leanna. I quite liked it and happily agreed to give it a try. After putting it on, I looked at myself in the mirror and found it looked really good. At that moment, Lilah smiled at me and said, "Let me do your hair up for you." I declined, saying, "Thank you, but I'm used to wearing my hair down." Lilah, hearing this, still smiled and said it was fine. Then, I walked out of the makeup room and went straight to Russell. I was quite looking forward to his opinion, so I asked, "What do you think?" Russell looked up at me, and I clearly saw a flicker of amazement in his eyes. He said, "Nude is very suitable for you. It makes your skin look even fairer." Hearing this, I was happy. However, at that moment, Abigail also came out. She deliberately spun around in front of Russell and asked coquettishly, "Russell, do I look good?" Russell just nodded and indifferently replied, "It's fine." The evaluation was really perfunctory.

    Russell's POV My car slowly pulled up to the entrance. Abigail, seated in the passenger seat, was the first to get out. She had always been accustomed to making appearances in public and truly enjoyed the feeling of walking the red carpet. As soon as she got out, she greeted the media and reporters, her behavior instantly drawing everyone's attention. At the same time, Troy got out of the car, prepared the wheelchair, and then opened the door, carefully helping me onto the wheelchair. Next, Zoey also got out of the car. She stood behind me, holding the handles of the wheelchair, and pushed me towards the entrance of the banquet. As soon as we appeared, there were bursts of praise around us. "Wow, so beautiful!" "Yeah, and such a great figure. My goodness, look at that flowing hair." Abigail, hearing the voices, instinctively raised her neck, a standard smile on her face, and said to the crowd, "Thank you, thank you all." But in a short while, she realized something was amis

    Russell's POV At that moment, Ariana walked in and said, "Zoey, this song is so beautiful. What's it called?" Zoey replied, ""Break Up"." Ariana sat down next to her and asked, "How does it go? Zoey, could you teach me?" Zoey smiled and said, "Sure!" She sang a line, and Ariana followed suit. Although Ariana didn't go off-key, her voice lacked any distinctive quality. With such a level of singing, she couldn't be noticed by an entertainment company. The video ended there, and Zoey looked at Ariana, "So Born Beauty chose you in the video back then? Honestly, do I even need to poison you?" Ariana's face turned pale. "You just wanted to lift me up to the highest point and then brutally bring me down." Zoey spoke each word clearly, "If that was my intention, I would have revealed this evidence long ago. Why wait until after you slandered me?" Ariana choked out, "You just wanted to make a fool of me. If you really considered me your sister, why would you go out of your way to emb

    Russell's POV I could no longer suppress the rage within me. The lupine nature inside me erupted completely, radiating an intense aura that made the wheelchair tremble under the powerful force. I spoke, my voice deep and filled with a commanding presence, carrying the dignity of a wolf, "Daria, to speak so harshly to your daughter. If it weren't for the family celebration today, such an offense would be met with severe punishment." With that, I released a bit more of my lupine energy, filling the air with a sense of oppression. Everyone around instinctively took a few steps back, and Daria's face turned pale instantly. Zoey sensed the powerful aura emanating from me and knew I had been thoroughly enraged. She quickly moved to my side, holding my hand, and in a voice only the two of us could hear, she said, "Don't be angry. I'm fine. Don't let her spoil your good mood tonight." Her eyes were filled with tenderness and comfort, like a clear spring that slowly extinguished the ra

    Zoey's POV Madam Madox, her face beaming with joy, extended her hand and said to me, "Zoey, come over here." I approached her, respectfully addressing her as "Madam Madox." She took my hand, gently caressing it, and remarked with a sigh, "Russell is truly blessed." Hearing this, I was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond. At the same time, the wolf within me sensed my embarrassment and softly whimpered in the depths of my consciousness, as if to comfort me not to take it too seriously. Then, Madam Madox continued, "Don't call me Madam Madox anymore. Call me 'Mom' instead." I suppressed a laugh, finding her incredibly endearing. She went on, "Russell is always so secretive and doesn't want it publicized. Just whisper it once." I leaned in close to her ear and softly called, "Mom." As soon as the word left my lips, I felt something added to my wrist. Looking down, I saw it was the jade bracelet Madam Madox always wore. The bracelet was of exquisite texture and lust

    Zoey's POV Daria's shrill and high-pitched voice instantly drew everyone's attention, with gazes focusing on me like spotlights. I looked at Madam Madox, my expression earnest as I said, "I did not plagiarize. This is my design." Daria let out a sneer, her tone filled with disdain and contempt, saying, "The design is exactly the same. Who would believe you didn't plagiarize? Ariana is a senior designer at Born Beauty! You've only been at Born Beauty for a month. What kind of decent work could you have designed? Zoey, apologize to Madam Madox right away. Madam Madox is always magnanimous and will surely forgive you." I replied, "You never trusted me in the past, and you still don't now. I did not plagiarize. This is my independent creation." Daria's eyes widened as she glared at me viciously, raising her voice to question, "If you didn't plagiarize, then did Ariana plagiarize you?" "You seem quite discerning." I said, while shifting my gaze towards Ariana. I looked her straight

    Zoey's POVIn reality, the design for this brooch was something I had created before, and I hadn't had the chance to hand it over to Ariana.It was on the eve of the engagement party that Ariana came to my office and happened upon this design draft, which was why there's now a situation where the designs were identical.However, I had already destroyed all the original drafts, and if I were to confront Ariana directly now, it wouldn't be to my advantage.So, I smiled and said to her, "Ariana, the truth will always come to light, and the innocent will be cleared."Ariana also forced a slight curve of her lips and replied, "That's right, Zoey. I hope so."I then turned to Marlene and introduced the design, "Madam Madox, the design style of this rose brooch is simple yet elegant, perfectly matching the temperament and taste of mature women. In werewolf culture, roses symbolize love, beauty, and courage. Regarding the color choice, I selected a

    Zoey's POVFortunately, the two pills we had taken earlier started to take effect. Leanna felt some strength returning to her body, and the feeling of heat subsided significantly.She leaned in close to me and whispered in a voice only the two of us could hear, "Zoey, do my steps look convincing?"I couldn't help but chuckle in response, "They're perfectly believable. It looks just like the drug is taking effect."Leanna then excitedly asked in a hushed tone, "I'm a bit nervous. When do you think we'll be taken away?"Before I could answer her, suddenly, four men approached from behind.They were rough in their actions, each grabbing one of our arms and forcibly dragging us into the adjacent lounge, then with a loud "bang", the door was locked from the inside.Leanna and I were thrown onto the sofa, and the four men stood in front of us, unfastening their belts while spewing all sorts of vulgar remarks, which made me feel extremely di

I guess you don't have much confidence in Ariana's design drafts, so let's just forget it."Jayleen knew Roland was trying to provoke her, but she wasn't the type to be easily agitated.However, this time, she was extremely confident in Ariana's design drafts, so she haughtily raised her head, "Sure! But if Zoey doesn't beat Ariana, she must apologize to me as well. Conversely, I'll apologize to her!"Roland was naturally full of confidence in Zoey, "Remember what you said. Everyone here, remember their words, so they can't go back on their promises later."At that moment, a male voice rang out, "Just apology? If you're going to bet, make it kowtow!"Everyone turned to look, and saw the newcomer dressed in a suit and tie, with a nonchalant attitude, it was Nelson.Nelson directly put his arm around Ariana's waist, "Sorr

    Third Person's POVLeanna was dressed in a white off-shoulder maxi dress, revealing her fair and flat shoulders. A belt was tied around her waist, giving her an elegant and graceful appearance.She smiled and spoke calmly, "When Star signed with Galaxy Studio, she explicitly stated that she needed absolute time and space, which means absolute freedom. She doesn't like to participate in such events, so she never makes an appearance, and I can't force her. As a top designer, how could Star give her sketches to someone else? I don't know where you've heard these messages from, but if you can find the source, I, on behalf of the design studio, will send a legal letter. Such rumors are an insult to designers. The sketches this time were designed by Zoey and have been recognized by all the designers in the studio. Therefore, whether it's Star or Zoey, I hope everyone focuses on the work itself, not these baseless rumors."The reporters then poi

Someone contacted me, offering me two hundred thousand to observe whether Mr. Madox is disabled, and I was bewitched."Brent conducted a search and retrieved Priscilla's phone, handing it over to Zoey.Russell watched Priscilla coldly, a suppressed low pressure filling the entire living room."Brent, have her taken to Snake Forest."Snake Forest?Priscilla was terrified, "I only sent one message to them, and I haven't sent anything since."Zoey asked, "What did you send?"Priscilla answered, "When I was washing the bedsheet last time, I saw bloodstains on it.

Zoey is just slandering me! She's the one plagiarizing!"Nelson smiled, "Don't be upset. As long as you say no, I believe you. Baby, I miss you. Come over tonight, okay?"Ariana listened, her mouth twitching as she looked at the whip marks on her body, feeling a shiver run through her, "I still have to work on the finished products. How about after the launch is over? I'll keep you company, alright?"Nelson gritted his teeth, "Fine, I'll wait for you."After hanging up the phone, his gaze turned gloomy and profound.

He was standing in front of the French window, talking on the phone.Dressed in dark blue pajamas that blended with the curtains of the same hue, he turned his head upon hearing her approach, his pale face appearing colder.After ending the call, he walked up to Zoey.Zoey lowered her eyes, her teeth biting her lower lip.Russell used his fingertip to lift her chin, asking, "Afraid to look at me?"Zoey responded vaguely, "How could I be?"Russell took a step forward, his toes touching hers, "I'm sorry. I lost control a bit today.""It's okay. I understand. After all, you were drugged.""What if I hadn't been drugged?"Zoey swallowed hard. If that were the case, she was indeed a little scared.Russell chuckled, picked her up horizontally, and said, "Let's get some sleep, okay?"&

If we continue like this, your wolf will keep spiraling out of control, and you won't tire all night, but it would be too harmful to your body."She pursed her lips, "I wanted to tell you this just now, but you wouldn't listen."Russell fell silent for a moment, then asked again, "So, can I or can't I?"Zoey bit her lower lip, feeling her face burning hot."You can, you're very capable, you're the best!"Russell chuckled, "When does your period end?""In about two days.""Okay."What did "okay" mean?Zoey lowered her head and s

Russell, it's Zoey. I'm here."Hearing the sound of water from the bathroom, Zoey quickly walked over and pushed the door, but it wouldn't budge."Russell? Are you in there? It's Zoey."She knocked on the door and then pressed her cheek against it to listen for any movement inside.Suddenly, th

I am acting responsibly towards her."Daria's voice became piercing, "Zoey, are you recording right now? Turn off the recording!""Should I do as you say?" Zoey said, while leisurely stirring her coffee. After tasting it and finding it not sweet enough, she added another sugar cube."Matteo hasn't been eating well these days.
