FAZER LOGINTabitha's POV
Widening her eyes, Sonia stared at me, finding my words hard to believe. "Tabitha, are you here to work or to study? You're kinda pretty, which is why I'm still standing here teaching you instead of leaving. We're in sales, and flexibility is what we need. You despise the chance? You know what? Countless people would fight for it. I'll be straight with you. Mr. Watson came here because of you tonight. Spend the night with him and get us the contract. If so, we get to surpasAlgernon's voice trembled with uncontrollable excitement. "I'm sorry you've suffered so much out there all these years."So the little boy in that photo had actually been her father.She had yet to find her parents, but fate had led her to her grandfather first.After all these years, she had finally found her first real family member.She asked hesitantly, "Are you...are you really my grandfather?""Absolutely," Algernon replied.She slowly embraced Algernon and gently patted him. "Take it easy.""I'm just happy. Shana actually gave me a son, and now such a clever and capable granddaughter."Algernon didn't even bother to wipe away his tears. He grabbed Tabitha's hand and looked at Cyrus. "That makes him your uncle now."Cyrus just stared at Tabitha. He never expected that the first woman he'd ever fallen for would turn out to be his own relative.Fate had a twisted sense of humor indeed.Tabitha also felt
That was all he knew. As for where or who that woman was, he had no idea.Now, looking at the samples in his hand, he realized if Tabitha was truly related to his father by blood, he would have to let go of his feelings for her.***The wait felt unbearably long. Algernon said nothing more about Shana's past. Instead, he looked up at Tabitha and Derek. "Are you two still together?"Derek took off his apron as he came out of the kitchen, looking every bit like the steady, dependable mate everyone could trust. "To be precise, I'm still trying to win Tabitha back."He casually accepted the glass of water Tabitha handed him, took a sip, and sat down across from Algernon."I used to do a lot of stupid things to hurt her...""I've heard about it."Algernon, for the first time, commented on his subordinate's love life. "You really went too far."Derek was left speechless.He sensed that Algernon's attitude toward him had changed.In the past, although Algernon was both his mentor and superio
Tabitha made coffee for Algernon and Cyrus before sitting down across from them, her expression serious. "It's getting late, so I'll get straight to the point. That day in the media room, I accidentally came across one of Lycan Algernon's paintings. The one in the painting is Shana, isn't she?"At the mention of that name, Algernon's expression suddenly changed.He grabbed Tabitha's hand, barely able to suppress his excitement. "You know her? What's she to you?!"Had all his suspicions over the years been wrong?Tabitha shook her head. "Actually, I don't really know who she is.""Then you..." Algernon paused."A few years ago, I found out by chance that I wasn't my father's biological daughter. I don't know anything about my real parents. Then I happened to meet an Omega who said I looked a lot like someone she used to know. That's when I first heard the name Shana.""And then?"Algernon took a quick step forward, hope and desp
Heavy snow fell outside, covering everything in a thick layer of white. Cyrus drove the car himself, with a convoy escorting them from both the front and rear.Cyrus glanced at Algernon through the rearview mirror. The alpha stared out at the falling snow, his expression grim and unreadable, as if lost in deep thought."Dad, do you know Ms. Hartley?" Cyrus began.Algernon let out a quiet sigh but did not answer directly.Cyrus tightened his grip on the steering wheel, an uneasy feeling slowly settling over him.He had a feeling that something major was about to happen within the pack.***After returning to the villa, Tabitha changed into comfortable lounge clothes. The moment Derek stepped inside, he wrapped his arms around her from behind and held her like he never wanted to let go."Alright, we haven't even had dinner yet. I'll make something quick. Let go for now," Tabitha said.Like an oversized puppy begging for af
"I've given her chance after chance, but she has never once learned from her mistakes. Instead, she only became more reckless, hiding behind the family name while hurting others whenever she wants. I know exactly what she did at the hospital on the day of my surgery! If that doctor hadn't been kind enough to let it go and chosen not to stoop to her level, I would have died on that operating table!"That doctor saved my life, yet neither of you has shown even the slightest gratitude. Instead, you keep pulling these disgraceful schemes behind everyone's backs. If you look down on her so much, then prove you're better than her with your own abilities! The truth is, you only act this way because you're my daughter!"I want to see how you'll continue acting so high and mighty once you no longer have my name or the family's protection behind you."Misha was completely terrified. Bonnie quickly nudged her, signaling her to kneel and apologize to Algernon."Dad,
Algernon's tightly controlled emotions finally boiled over. He had managed to keep his temper in check until Misha's name came up. The instant he heard it, he hurled the delicate cup to the ground.It had been his favorite tableware set, but now it lay shattered, the broken pieces scattered at Bonnie's feet.He had no patience left for his daughter."What do you mean by that? Did she do it out of kindness? No. She wanted the whole world to laugh at our family! I've let her mistakes slide over and over because she was still young. But this keeps happening. How many more messes is she going to cause?""This wasn't something Misha could have come up with on her own. It has to be Bentley. He wants to use this incident to go after Derek," Bonnie shot back."If she hadn't agreed to it, could something this ridiculous have happened today? The truth is, she never thinks for herself. She does whatever other people tell her to do!"Algernon let out a
