Chapter 211: Betrayal

(Olivia’s POV).

“I once heard classmates talking badly about Victoria behind her back, and I even had a big fight with them. Miranda buried her face in her hands, her voice muffled by tears. “My kindness to her was genuine, not what she said just to make myself look better.”

Her shoulders trembled as she recounted the memories to me. The weight of betrayal was crushing her spirit completely.

“I defended her so many times. I thought we were real friends.” Miranda’s voice cracked with pain. “How could she do this to me?”

I listened quietly, unsure how to console the devastated woman beside me. Her pain was raw and genuine.

I gently patted Miranda’s back, feeling the tension in her muscles. “Miranda, you need to ask yourself if you made a mistake.”

She looked up at me with red–rimmed eyes. “Should I have been more considerate of Victoria’s sensitivity? Her feelings of inadequacy?”

I sighed deeply. “You need to be more cautious in choosing whom to trust in the future. Betrayal can be dangerous in our world.”

Miranda cried for a while longer as we drove through the city. When we finally arrived at her luxurious Harbor City estate, her eyes were swollen and red.

“Olivia, thank you for saving me from what could have been a devastating scandal.” She gripped my hands tightly. “I promise to return the favor whenever you need it.”

I accepted her thanks graciously. “Don’t be so formal, Miranda. I understand what you narrowly escaped.”

The gravity of the situation hung heavy between us. One wrong move could have destroyed her reputation

completely.

No sooner had I left Miranda’s estate than I received word at my law firm that Connor Rivers had arrived. My

heart skipped a beat at the unexpected news.

As I opened my office door, Connor quickly approached me. His face was etched with worry, his protective Alpha instincts on full display.

He examined me meticulously from head to toe. “Are you alright? Did you get hurt during the confrontation

last night?”

I stared back at him, puzzled by his concern. “Who told you about the incident?”

A shadow of concern crossed Connor’s eyes. “A contact from the police department informed me.”

My expression remained unreadable. “It was Miranda who was drugged and targeted. The attackers were after her specifically.”

I paused, watching his reaction carefully. “I simply helped rescue Miranda from a dangerous situation.”

Connor breathed a sigh of relief, his tense shoulders relaxing slightly. “I’m aware that Miranda is safe and the culprits have been apprehended,”

I nodded in acknowledgment. The case had been resolved quickly thanks to the evidence we’d gathered. Connor’s phone rang with an urgent pack business call. After answering it, his expression grew serious.

“I have to return to Rivers Pack headquarters immediately. The pack council is waiting for me.” He gestured to the nutritional supplements he’d brought. “I brought these for you.”

As Connor left, I stood there in a daze for a moment. I gazed at the pile of gift boxes containing various healing herbs and werewolf–specific tonics on my desk.

I was speechless. Why were so many supplements necessary when I wasn’t even injured?

“You don’t need to be hurt to benefit from these,” Connor said, reaching out to gently stroke my head. “Livvy, next time you encounter such danger, don’t put yourself at risk like that.”

His tender touch caused my heart to skip a beat. The warmth of his concern enveloped me completely.

Later that day, I received a call from Harrison. He wanted to meet me to discuss his divorce case.

More specifically, the severing of his mate bond with Margaret Grey. The legal implications were complex and emotionally charged.

Harrison, now discharged from the hospital and separated from Margaret, was living alone in a modest apartment. It was far from the elite werewolf districts he once called home.

As I arrived at the Shadowvale Tenement Complex, I saw Ethan Grey approaching the building. He looked disheveled in inexpensive clothes, his face unshaven.

He bore little resemblance to the polished Alpha heir he once was. The fall from grace had been swift and

brutal.

Ethan’s expression turned sour as he caught my scent. Emma Thompson stepped forward protectively, sensing the tension.

“What are you doing here?” Ethan angrily questioned me. “Are you representing my parents‘ bond severance

case?”

His voice was filled with accusation and desperation. “I demand that you transfer it to someone else.”

“My pack is already in ruins,” he continued bitterly. “Your actions will only tear my family apart completely.” I retorted coldly, “It wasn’t my intention to break up your family. I’m trying to prevent the bond severance from

happening.”

My voice was steady and firm. “It’s your mother Margaret who wants to sever the mate bond.”

Ethan was confused, his wolf agitated by the conflicting information. “That’s not what my mother told me.” “She said you were pushing for the divorce,” he said suspiciously. His eyes searched my face for deception.

I laughed mockingly at his blind reliance on his mother’s words. “Are you still tied to her apron strings like a pup?”

I headed towards the apartment building, ignoring his protests. His wounded pride was evident in every step

he took.

Ethan followed, his desperation overriding his wounded ego. “Please don’t let my parents sever their mate

bond.”

“I won’t let Margaret get her way in destroying what remains of your family,” I replied firmly. The determination in my voice was unmistakable.

Ethan sensed something was amiss with his mother’s story. His wolf instincts were telling him there was

more to this situation.
