  "Gloria, you know what? The truth is, you were protected by the old Alpha. And you weren't involved in the real battle yet." After saying this, Patrick stood up, straightened his clothes, and left the study without another word.

  Sitting on the sofa, Gloria was left alone in the study. She gawked at the desk, while Patrick's words echoed in her mind.

  Gloria had always believed that she was outstanding, and that Moonlight Group's rise was a result of her talent and hard work.

  And she still believed so.

  However, Patrick had just shown her a different angle she had never thought of in all these years. Her opponents were not all gentlemen.

  In fact, her grandfather, the old Alpha of the Silver Spring Pack, had told her about the rough waters of business from day one. Yet she was too arrogant to take his words seriously.

  Gloria was not a fool. Quite contrary, she was very smart.

  To taunt her or to teach her, Patrick was right about one thing. This video proved one point. Some

      "Really? Am I worse than you? You pretended to be pitiful and seduced me, and now you are using the same trick to hit on Patrick." When Derrick mentioned Patrick, he was more furious, and his words became harsher. He sneered, "I wonder how you managed to seduce Patrick."  He lifted Gloria's chin, leaned close, and said, "You slept with him, right? Slut!"  Gloria's chest heaved violently, and her face went ghastly pale. She never thought that she would hear such insulting words from Derrick.  "Let go," Gloria said, trying to stay calm. And her voice was trembling.  Gloria raised her eyes and looked into Derrick's eyes. She still remembered that when she first met him, he was also frivolous. After getting to know him better, she learned that was not who he really was.  "Is that what you think of me?" Gloria asked. Derrick was like a beam of light that lit up her world. If she had a choice, she would never want to come into conflict with him.  Derr

      "Derrick, you said that I lied to you and that I hid my past from you," Gloria said in a hoarse voice. "I will say it one last time. I never had the intention of hurting Gabrielle, and I swear I didn't ask any rogue to set her up. Her death was self-inflicted. It wasn't my fault."  Gloria continued, "Believe it or not, that's the truth, and I don't owe you now."  After Gloria finished speaking, she stretched out her hand and pushed Derrick away.  However, the only thing Derrick now cared about was that Gloria turned him down. Her words meant nothing to him right now, and he failed to interpret the truth behind Gloria's words.  He thought, 'She turned me down. She is OK with Patrick touching her, yet she hates me so much!'  "Don't think you can get away by simply saying that. There is no such thing in the world! Patrick can have you. Why can't I?" Derrick kissed Gloria underneath him madly.  "Derrick! Let go!" Gloria refused.  "You wish!" D

     Gloria spoke very slowly. Then she turned firmly and walked toward Patrick.  She looked at Patrick in front of her. From the second she knew that he was her mate, they were meant to get entangled for a lifetime.  No one else got to stir their fingers at anything that was going on between her and Patrick.  "Mr. Hammond, let's go to Moonlight Group," Gloria lowered her head and whispered.  She felt a hand on her shoulder, and in the next second, the world turned upside down. By the time she could see around her, she found herself being carried by Patrick. Bowing her head, she didn't resist and let Patrick carry her out without struggling.  Derrick stood stiffly there. After Patrick and Gloria disappeared, he suddenly staggered and leaned against the wall behind him.  He couldn't stop thinking about Gloria's words. He thought, 'What does she mean? Why didn't she fight back after I insulted her? Why doesn't she hate me?'  "She said I was her li

     Patrick's eyes were filled with pride. The sight of Gloria like this made him feel that his heart was beating faster. It was as if he was looking at that Gloria from three years ago. He had never thought that he missed that Gloria so much!  At night, in Christine's office at Fittro Club, Christine had just finished briefing Patrick, when someone knocked on the door.  Patrick said, "Come in."  Leonard pushed open the door and entered. He asked, "Alpha Patrick, you want to see me?"  "I want you to find out if there's something we don't know about regarding what happened three years ago," Patrick said.  "Do you mean the thing about Gabrielle three years ago?" Leonard was surprised. He asked in disbelief, "Isn't that settled already?"  "Since when do I need your permission when I do things?" Patrick said with certain Alpha pressure.  Leonard trembled in fear. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead as he said carefully, "Alpha Patrick, it has been

      Damon walked into his bedroom and locked the door.  He frowned and thought for a moment before taking out his phone and dialing a number that he had not called for a long time.  After the call was connected, a teasing voice that was filled with contempt came through the phone. "Well, well, Beta Damon. It's been a long time since we last talked."  Damon frowned deeply. He said hastily, ignoring the man's attitude on the other end of the line, "Leonard just searched in the storeroom and took Gabrielle's address book. That was weird. Do me a favor and find out what he's up to."  "Beta Damon, you know better than anyone who Leonard works for. He's just a pack guard. What does he need the address book for? The only reason is that his boss has assigned him a new task," the man said sarcastically.  In the next second, anger emerged on Damon's face as he bellowed into the phone, "Gabrielle is dead! Why do they need the address book now?"  "Enough, Beta

      Ellison gave a mocking smile and thought, 'Patrick, it turns out you can't say no to the Moon Goddess' arrangement either. If you had known this was going to happen, would you have been so cruel?'  Ellison was very smart. He had figured out from Leonard's behavior that Patrick had changed his attitude toward Gloria.  He muttered to himself, "I was wrong to think Gabrielle was Patrick's soft spot. Behind her angelic face, she was actually a vicious woman. No wonder Patrick didn't do anything about Gabrielle's terrible death." His eyes sparkled with excitement, and he was thrilled because of the upcoming challenge.  Ellison dialed a number at once. With a nasty smile on his face, he said to Damon, "I got it. Patrick has already accepted Gloria as his mate."  As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of something falling to the ground through the phone.  Damon, who was on the other end of the line, lost his grip on his phone and it fell to the

      Their lips molded together. Gloria couldn't move her jaw at all, so she could only let the drool drip down the corner of her mouth.  It was not an affectionate kiss, but a complete torture.  Gloria closed her eyes and refused to shed a single tear. The man in front of her made it utterly clear to her that her tears were worthless.  Patrick had gone mad the moment he learned that Gloria had got herself a new driver's license.  He thought, 'I'm sorry, Gloria. I fell in love with you, and I hurt you. If the pain is enough to make you remember the lesson and too scared to leave me, then it's worth it.  Because I can never let go of you again.'  Patrick kissed the woman under him madly.  He only pushed Gloria's dislocated jaw back when the car stopped steadily. His technique was swift and skilled.  Leo was blaming him for hurting Gloria. However, he ignored Leo completely. Right now, he saw nothing but Gloria in his eyes.  "Gloria,

      Patrick opened the door, got into the car, and drove off without Hank. Hank immediately got in another car and went after Patrick's car.  Patrick was driving so fast that Hank could only follow him from a far distance.  Hank watched as Patrick braked abruptly and walked into a building.  "Miss Carter, here is your new driver's license."  "Thank you." Before Gloria could finish her words, someone suddenly snatched the driver's license from the service staff.  Gloria turned around and was about to say something, but when she saw the man's face, her pale lips trembled. "Why are you here?"  "Are you trying to run away from me?" Patrick's face was as cold as ice.  "No, I'm not," Gloria denied in fear.  "No?" Patrick shook the driver's license in his hand. "Then what is this for? Explain it to me."  Patrick was furious. He kept Gloria's license, and now she came here to get a new one, which could only mean that she wanted to get away

      Gloria looked at the sky. "Christine, you know that I hate him and am afraid of him. Six years ago, he sent me to the werewolf prison. There were iron bars everywhere.  "Not long ago, I woke up in the morning and found myself locked in a space full of iron bars again. He put bars on all the windows. In my opinion, it was no different from my life in prison.  "He tried all means to imprison me. He was now so sick that he finally let go. He said that he didn't want to continue the game. He was tired of me and I believed it. But isn't that ridiculous? He lets go only when he's dying. Does this mean that he cares about me?  "You are right. When I was at the airport, I kept thinking about how you scolded me. I was running all the time. I didn't just run from him, but from my family as well.  "Patrick imprisoned my body. As for me, I imprisoned my heart.  "Alright, let's get in. It's a bit cold outside." Gloria felt relaxed after saying that. She stood up.

      Gloria picked up the apple from the stable and quietly peeled it. Not long after, the peeled apple was handed to Patrick.  The apple emitted a fragrance. Patrick didn't believe what was happening. He didn't dare to take the apple.  He didn't know if the apple would disappear the moment he took it.  "When will the operation be carried out?" Gloria went straight to the point. She held the peeled apple in her hand.  Patrick immediately became alert. He was a little nervous. "Who told you?"  "Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?" She asked again, ignoring his nagging.  "The day after tomorrow." He stared at Gloria. In fact, she was more stubborn than him. If she didn't get an answer, she wouldn't give up.  Gloria nodded and stuffed Patrick. "Are you not eating it? I peeled it for you."  Patrick felt warm in his heart. He had never shown his weaknesses, but now felt tears well up in his eyes. One could even see that his eyes turned red. He

      "Look, you're hesitating." Christine was like an invader. She pursued further and didn't let Gloria go. "I just asked you if you still loved him, but you hesitated. Do you really know yourself?  "Gloria, in my opinion, you are running away from him. Three years ago, you tried everything you could to escape. Now, you have made no progress at all. You are still escaping. Will you really be at peace at Waikiki Beach? I will be blunt. If you can only remain calm on Waikiki Beach, it means that you have never been calm."  Gloria trembled, and her face paled. "Stop it! Enough!"  Christine's words echoed in her mind. She wanted to press the pause button but there was simply none.  "Gloria, Waikiki Beach is not a pure land. The peace you think is just your escape," Christine said seriously.  Christine should not have said this, but she saw some things that the people in the police station did not see.  She saw Gloria's hesitation.  During the thre

      Outside a VIP ward in the hospital, an unexpected figure appeared.  "Let him in." In the ward, Patrick nodded.  The door opened, and Ellison walked in.  "You're really well-informed," Patrick said coldly, his lips pale.  "I have my sources. No matter how well you hide it, you can't guarantee that your subordinates won't give themselves away," Ellison said calmly.  Patrick smiled, "You don't have to be in such a hurry even though you covet the Hammond Group. After I die, it will be all yours."  "Come on." Ellison sat down on a chair. "If you die, all your assets will be given to her."  Although he didn't say who she was, Patrick, who was lying on the bed, had a glint in his eyes. "You know me well."  "No." Ellison waved his index finger. "It just so happened that I saw a lawyer walk out of the hospital. That lawyer was hired by you personally to serve you and the Hammond Group."  "Did you find me just like that?" Patrick asked.

      "Don't move. I just want to look at you," Patrick whispered. Gloria only felt that it was strange. When did he learn to be gentle?  When she raised her eyes to look at him, she was seized by his eyes. His eyes were like black holes as if swallowing her up. Intense affection seemed to be about to burst out of his eyes in a second.  She had never experienced this before.  She had never seen Patrick like this before.  Before she ran out of patience, he released her.  He took a step back, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and handed it to her. "Don't you want to leave? I'll let you go."  She took the paper and found it was a divorce agreement.  As her gaze slid down, Patrick had already signed his name.  For a moment, she became even more confused.  He had done everything he could to force her to be with him, but now he had taken out the divorce agreement.  She didn't understand.  Gloria looked at Patrick, her

      Half a month had passed. Patrick didn't appear in front of her again. Occasionally, Hank would come back to take a change of clothes and then leave in a hurry.  Apart from being confused, the guards in the pack became increasingly serious.  Gloria didn't know what had happened.  One day, the dark iron gate of Alpha's villa opened again. She saw the familiar Bentley driving in from the second floor from a distance.  She looked at the car and fell into a daze.  Finally, he came back.  She retracted her gaze and did not know how to face him.  Just as she was lost in thought, Kevin went to her door and invited her to meet Alpha respectfully.  She wanted to ask if she could refuse.  However, Kevin turned around and left directly.  It was no use delaying. She still went downstairs.  Gloria gave a self-mockery chuckle. However, her smile faded quickly. As she got thinner, her face seemed to be sunken.  She noticed a

      Smoke came out from the gap in the door.  Instantly, Hank's expression changed. He shook off Mandy, who was pulling him, took out his key, and opened the door. "Luna Gloria! What is going on?"  Before he finished speaking, he choked on the thick smoke and coughed violently.  Mandy rushed in. "Gloria, don't scare me! Don't tell me that you want to kill yourself!"  Unfortunately, the smoke was too thick, and the flames were everywhere.  Hank immediately called the police and tried to rush in.  A figure passed him quickly and rushed in.  In the blink of an eye, the figure had already rushed into the thick smoke.  "Alpha Patrick! You can't go inside!  "It's too dangerous!"  Hank shouted, but Patrick turned a deaf ear. He looked around the room through the smoke, but Gloria was nowhere to be seen.  He immediately rushed to the bedroom door, but the door could not be opened.  "Gloria! Open the door! Gloria! Open the

      In the ward, Patrick took a chair and sat down. Opposite him was Harry.  "She lied to me and came to donate her bone marrow to you."  Patrick said, breaking the silence.  Harry turned pale and gradually despaired. He said, "I'll go find her! I won't force her to donate her bone marrow!" He stood up and was about to leave.  "Gloria was injecting G-CSF. I took her home."  Harry calmed down after hearing that.  "The donor?" Harry was puzzled.  "Your brother."  Harry did not know what to say for a moment.  "Your brother's match result was a fake. I've known this for a long time. But Gloria doesn't care about it, so I do nothing."  Harry wanted to say something. He found that Patrick was so indifferent. Patrick knew the truth, yet he chose to stand aside and watch the farce.  "You know Gloria went to the bone marrow bank. Ever since she found out about your condition, she's been asking around to find a suitable donor. I

      Patrick paused. The next second, he reached out to cover her eyes and then kissed the back of his hand over them. "You mean a lot to me," he said silently.  "Gloria, don't think about running away again. For the rest of your life, you're bound to be with me. You can't get away without my permission."  He had already lost his mind.  He felt bad for her, yet such a feeling was surpassed by his longing to keep her with him.  After everything was over, she said, "I hate you."  He closed his eyes. When he opened them, he suppressed the pain in them and said, pretending that he didn't care, "Whatever."  He thought, 'You can hate me. Even though you want to hate me, I'm the only one you are going to hate.  I don't care about anything else, as long as I'm the only one in your world. You may choose to love me or hate me as you want.'  It was just that the moment she said she hated him, he felt his heartache killing him.  The day of Harr
