“With that money, we wouldn’t have had to keep pretending and sweet–talking that idiot Jackson all this time.”
Laila rolled her eyes impatiently, her tone dripping with disgust as she mused, “Why hasn’t that bitch Seraphina come back yet? If she dares abort the pup, I’ll kill her myself!
“And that bastard in her belly–if it weren’t for the fact that I can’t have children, what right does she have to marry Jackson? It’s too bad that Jackson, as an Alpha, has to have his own pup, and I ruined my body with too many abortions.
“Once she gives birth, I’ll say I’m poisoned with wolfsbane and want a child but can’t conceive–then I’ll cry a little in front of Jackson and take the pup! He’ll totally believe it! Then, we’ll use Seraphina’s pup to claim the inheritance her mother left behind…”
The three of them finished airing their plots loudly and burst into laughter together.
Meanwhile, Jackson’s expression had darkened to a terrifying degree.
Father kicked the TV hard and smashed it. “Slander! All of it! Jackson, don’t believe it–this is all fake! That bitch Seraphina got someone to fake this!”
Jackson trembled with rage, and his face was pale with fury. With a frosty voice, he asked, “You’ve been lying to us this whole time? So, it really was you who killed Seraphina’s mother? And the ambush that almost got me killed back then–that was your doing too?”
Laila, Father, and Mary were stunned speechless.
Laila was so terrified that she collapsed to the floor. She forced out some tears and begged Jackson, “Jackson, you misunderstood! That video must have been faked, or maybe Seraphina hired someone to impersonate us!”
“You bitch! How dare you even mention Seraphina?” Jackson roared.
Jackson went berserk and kicked Laila over just as she was still slandering me. “So, Seraphina was innocent all along. You wench! How much have you slandered her?”

He trembled with fury as scenes from the past ten years flashed through his mind. “How many times did I hurt her because
of all this?”
Laila was scared out of her wits. She scrambled to crawl away, only to be dragged back by her hair by Jackson.
“If you want to act like you were poisoned by wolfsbane, then it’s time you felt the pain that comes with it!” he snarled.
