Blake's POV
After I arrived at the company, I had several important meetings to attend, and I immediately got busy.
When I returned to the office after the first meeting, Dowen knocked on the door and came in. "King Blake, someone sent you a package."
I frowned and asked coldly, "What is it?"
"I don't know. It's not signed." Dowen looked puzzled.
"Give it to me." I rarely get delivery or anything like that. Most of the things were sent to Dowen, who would pass them to me.
Dowen placed the package on my desk, and I tore the wrappings.
A few photos fell from the package to the desk.
I picked them up at once to take a look. It was my father, Marc, and a woman in those photos.
At the sight of the woman, my eyes widened in shock. It was the woman Patricia asked me to investigate a while ago.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
What was the relationship between Olivia and Marc?
Patricia wouldn't ask me to investigate her for no reason.
I glanced at the time when the photos were taken, and I pulled a long face.
They were taken after Marc and Abigail got married.
I quickly looked at the photos. They were taken in different years. Was Marc still seeing Olivia after he married Abigail?
How could this be?
Did Marc betray Abigail?
I couldn't think straight.
The photos struck me as candid shots. They didn't know they were being photographed, which proved that they were very close to each other.
I clenched my fists and slammed them on the desk. I was certain that Richard was behind it. He wanted to distract me.
What a vicious move! I now had a better understanding of Richard. He was ambitious and despicable. He was a powerful opponent.
Just as I was looking at the photos and pondering, Leo suddenly opened the door and came in. His face was gloomy, and it seemed that he was about to snap.
He looked at the photos on my desk, and his lips were tightly pursed. "Blake, what's going on? Who sent these photos to us? And for what purpose?"
Leo didn't know we were facing a huge crisis within the company and the pack. I hoped that he could do what he liked and not burden him.
I got madder. Richard sent photos to Leo, too! Richard had gone all out. He was determined to drag everyone down.
"Leo, sit down. I have something to tell you," I looked at Leo's gloomy face and said softly. "Blake, did Marc really cheat on Abigail?" Leo was in pain. I knew how that felt.
I said in a low voice, "Yes. The photos are real."
I didn't want to accept the harsh truth, but this time, my sanity took the upper hand.
Leo trembled and slumped on the sofa. "How could this be? Why did he betray Abigail? She is his mate!"
I wanted to comfort Leo, but I didn't know what to say. I shared the same disappointment and sadness.
"Abigail must have found out about it long ago. That's why she rejected Marc. Blake, have we been getting Abigail wrong all along?" Leo blamed himself.
I nodded slightly. "Yes. We misunderstood her. Back then, she rejected Marc and then left us. She must have been more heartbroken than we were."
"By the way, you just said you have something to tell me. What is it? Do you know who sent the photos?" asked Leo abruptly.
"Yes, I do. It was Richard. He must have known about Marc's affairs," I said sarcastically.
I felt danger when Richard's cunning and treacherous face emerged in my mind. "What?" Leo was dumbfounded. "Richard? Why did he do that?"
"He wants to be the Lycan King of the pack. He wants to take control of the company," I said angrily.
"How dare he! How dare he send us photos of Marc cheating on Abigail! Blake, he must pay for what he did." Leo's face was red with rage.
I said, "Don't worry. I won't let him get his way."
After I comforted Leo, I sent him off. I was about to get busy soon.
Catherine's POV
I got a little bored staying in the villa, so I went to see Melinda with the pack guards by my side. Melinda was like an elder, who could always comfort me.
We had lunch together, and then I went back.
Arriving at the villa, I suddenly saw a black car parked at the door. I wondered if it was Patricia and Emerson's guest.
I hesitated. Maybe I would disturb them if I went in now. Yet at the same time, the driver had
already driven the car to the door of the parlor.
"Lycan Luna, we've arrived home!" The driver reminded me in a whisper.
"Thanks." I opened the car door and got out.
I was wearing a hat because of my head injuries.
I took it off after entering the parlor.
A young man was sitting on the sofa in the parlor. He had a gentle smile on his face.
Sure enough, a guest was here. I looked at him.
Patricia and Emerson were sitting next to the young man, talking to him.
"Cathy, come here!" Patricia saw me and waved at me.
I had no choice but to walk over. Patricia pointed at the young man and introduced him to
me, "This is Nick, my grandson. He is Richard's son, Blake's younger brother."
I was stunned. The young man was Richard's son? Why was he here out of the blue? "Hello, Catherine. I believe we've never met. Nice to meet you." Nick immediately stood up and politely extended his hand toward me.
I thought he would be as hateful as Richard, his father, yet he proved me wrong. He was a polite gentleman.
I nodded at him. "Likewise. Well, don't let me interrupt you. I'm going upstairs to change."
Patricia didn't stop me.
I turned around, missing the changes in Nick's eyes. All of a sudden, his eyes became deep.
As I walked, I could feel Nick staring at my back all along, which made me very uncomfortable. I quickened my pace.
I stayed upstairs for a while, constantly worrying about Nick staying with Patricia and Emerson alone.
To my surprise, Nick was still sticking around by the time I went downstairs, and he was doing a great job making Patricia and Emerson happy.
"Nick, Richard hasn't visited us since he got out of werewolf prison. Is he OK?" Patricia asked with concern.
Emerson said angrily, "Even he isn't that cheeky to come to see me! He should reflect on himself seriously after doing such nasty things."
Nick pleaded with a face full of shame, "Emerson, Patricia, believe me. Richard knows he was wrong. Please, forgive him for being impulsive back then. He is a different man now. Indeed, he felt ashamed coming to see you, but he told me that he would come to you soon."
"Whatever. I don't care!" Emerson was still angry.
Patricia immediately glared at Emerson. "What are you talking about? Nick, tell Richard to
call me. I want to hear his voice."
"Sure, Patricia!" Nick nodded with a smile.
Patricia sighed, "Nick, have you found your mate yet?"
"Not yet. I wonder how long I have to wait till I have the Moon Goddess' blessing." Nick
looked pitiful.
They kept chatting, which made me slightly relieved.
Suddenly, it occurred to me that Blake didn't know that Nick was here. I should call and
inform him.
