Third Person's POV

Gloria's eyes widened in disbelief.

Thirty-six million eight hundred thousand dollars? And they expected her to pay without a second thought?

The attendant's smile faltered, now seeming tinged with disdain.

Humiliation and resentment surged within her. She forced back tears and said to the attendant, "We'll pass."

She braced for sarcasm, but the attendant remained polite. "Of course, feel free to browse more or visit us again."

He gestured for Sabrina to return the box.

After a long pause, Sabrina still didn't comply.

"Who said we're leaving? I want this set. Mother, make Luna Gloria pay," she insisted.

Rosemary, though internally recoiling at the price, steeled herself.

With Adelaide in the next room and onlookers gathering, she couldn't afford to lose face.

Her tone hardened. "Gloria, if you don't have enough cash, send the attendant to our home to fetch it."

Tears welled in Gloria's eyes as she pleaded, "Let's go downstairs and pick out a few more pieces there."

    Third Person's POVCaldwell glanced at her, somewhat hurt. "Don't say that. I'd never learned how to make one before. This was my first time.""The back's all burned black," Paisley said, turning the rabbit doll in her hands. "Actually, the whole doll is black. You must have touched it up with paint. Did you keep repainting it?"Caldwell said a bit embarrassedly, "It kept fading, so I had to keep repainting it. I haven't touched it up in the past two or three years, but I'm sure she'll recognize it.""Alright then," Paisley said, glancing at Adelaide.Adelaide turned her face away, only to meet Lance's passionate gaze.Without thinking, Lance blurted out, his voice tinged with joy, "It's as special as your scarf back then."Paisley snorted, "That's what I was thinking."Craig immediately came to Adelaide's defense, "No one can be good at everything. Adelaide's the most talented one in the Warscar Training Camp. Why don't you sh

    Third Person's POVCaldwell looked at Paisley with hopeful eyes. "Paisley, please."Paisley, full of brotherly loyalty, agreed without hesitation. "No problem. Caldwell, tell me about her childhood. I'll bring it up when I meet her and see her reaction. Her facial expressions will give away at least seventy to eighty percent of the truth."Caldwell stood up, but Lance quickly and firmly pressed him back down. "Sit and talk."Caldwell tried to rise again. "No……"But as soon as he moved his hand, Lance pushed him back into his seat, this time with a stern tone, "Sit!"Caldwell said helplessly, "I'll go get something of hers from her childhood. You can take it with you when you meet her, Paisley."Lance released him and said, "Go ahead."Caldwell stood up and first apologized to Paisley, "I was just so excited, I'm sorry. Forgive me.""No worries, I was startled myself," Paisley said.She was still shak

    Third Person's POVPaisley took the painting off the wall, laid it flat on the table, and examined it once more. After taking a deep breath, she confirmed that it was indeed Asa.She finally understood why she had felt a strange sense of familiarity when she saw Asa.Comparing the painting to the features of Adelaide's mother, Airella, there were a couple of similarities.She looked up at another painting that Adelaide had been staring at earlier; that one probably bore an even stronger resemblance to Airella.In her later years, Airella had become quite thin and seemed lifeless due to her blindness from weeping.Seeing that there were no outsiders in the study, Paisley said directly, "I have two things to tell you. First, the person in this painting bears a couple of similarities to Airella, Adelaide's mother. Second, the person in the painting is named Asa, also known as Astria. She was rescued by Madison and is set to mate Eugene in an attempt to manipulate him.""What?" Caldwell w

    Third Person's POVPaisley hurried back to the Blackthorn Pack and, upon hearing the door to the study open, rushed in with her crimson flame pheromones brimming with eager warmth.She had just wrapped up Caldwell's matter and was planning to have Craig assist her—her wolf claws lightly itched with anticipation.Upon entering the study, she found it filled with paintings. Lance and Adelaide were already there.The air was a blend of cedar and fir pheromones, calm and steady.Adelaide stood motionless before a painting. Her fir pheromones were as cold as ice, her eyes locked onto the image without a blink, her pupils narrowed with intense focus.Paisley approached, her crimson flame pheromones rippling with each step.Following Adelaide's gaze, she froze the moment she noticed the red mole above the lip of the person in the painting. Her pheromones halted instantly, as if frozen.She scanned the other paintings one by one, her w

    Third Person's POVOn hearing this, the three of them immediately became grave.Paisley wasn't one to speak idly. Though playful and fun-loving, she was always dependable when it came to serious matters.Her words, coupled with her presence today, likely had to do with Miss Shuman.Back at the Hutchinson's house, Paisley had all the servants leave the room.She said, "This Shuman girl isn't really Astria. Her real name is Asa. The Spectrehowl Pack has a reason for approaching Eugene. We can't agree to this mating, but we can't refuse outright either. Since I came with you to the Spectrehowl Pack today, an immediate refusal might lead to some unexplained situations and could affect Adelaide and my upcoming plans."Sibyl's heart sank, and she felt a pang of sadness. "She lied to me? We're related, how could she deceive me like this?"Paisley responded, "Asa may not be a bad person. She might even be in the dark. But we need to investiga

    Third Person's POVJust like the familiar resemblance in demeanor between Luna Cassia and Hunt.But since Luna Cassia is Hunt's mom, it's only natural they share some traits.Yet where did this sense of familiarity with Asa come from?Sibyl was pretty pleased with Asa. Her makeup was just right, she had delicate features, no garish colors, and an air of quiet dignity. Being a few years older, she came across as mature and steady.Luna Cassia, noticing Sibyl's satisfied expression, said softly, "She's been through some hard times. Engaged early, but her fiancé passed away, leaving her to face gossip and rumors. In a backwater place like Fairfax County, folks are quick to blame her for the tragedy. So she came to the capital to seek a new mate.""I never expected her to match up with Eugene. But I heard he's looking for a slightly older and more mature mate. Astria seemed like a good fit, so I recommended her.""I hope you and Eu
