Right after I finished speaking, I felt Derek's hands on my waist tighten.I continued hastily, "I want you to back me up."In the next second, he kissed my lips.It was a fierce kiss, leaving me no room to escape.All of a sudden, Alvin's voice came from outside. "Miss Sutton, Alpha Derek is in the middle of something."She was back already? How come?She hated my guts. If she saw me with Derek, she'd definitely turn the Greenwood Group upside down.I was very clear about my goal here. Daphne mustn't stand in my way and ruin my plan.A bit panicking, I pushed Derek's chest.Too bad that he seemed no intention of letting go of me, though she was about to barge in.Outside, she said impatiently, "What? Do I need permission to see my fiancé? Move!"My heart was beating so fast, and I felt butterflies in my stomach. I tried to break free from Derek's embrace with all my might.Derek was crazy! Since h

Tabitha's POVI tried to look at Rebecca more clearly, but her back was to me, so all I could see was her thin body.She was even wearing a sun hat that covered most of her face. I meant, come on. We were indoors. Why would she need a sun hat?Soon, she finished cleaning the windows and was about to wipe the bookcase.What if she saw me?I was initially here to report on my work to Derek. If she saw me now, they wouldn't believe me no matter what I said.Distressed, I quickly picked up my phone and texted Derek.His phone buzzed on the desk, yet he didn't even raise his head. Seemed he already knew I'd text him.I bet he did this on purpose!Having no other option, I had to dial his number. Yet he simply glanced at the phone screen and then lowered his head.Shit!I was so anxious, and on the contrary, he was acting all cool as if nothing had ever happened.Even Daphne sensed something wrong. She looked at him, saying, "Der

Tabitha's POVSoon, everyone in the department knew Daphne had slapped me.Meanwhile, Derek left me in full charge of the project, and a warning was issued in all the chat groups.Those who weren't stupid sensed something off.Given that it was Alvin who had arranged for me to work here, they now suspected that instead of Alvin, Derek was the one backing me up!My colleagues in Group C were terrified the second they realized that.No one dared to compete with me for the project anymore. They were practically waiting in line to fawn me up.Emma placed the latte I had asked for respectfully on my desk with an ingratiating smile."Tabitha, here's the latte I bought for you. It's precisely how you wanted it. Easy on the sugar, no ice. Oh, and I got you an afternoon tea as well."The exquisite pastries filled my desk. Everyone else looked at her with disdain.As I glanced at her, she continued, "I was ignorant. Please forgive me. If you n

Derek's POV"I don't think it's any business competitor. After all, all the bidding projects this year are quite normal. Then... If it isn't for commercial interests, why are these cameras here?" Rolf pondered."Find out every single person who has been in my office this past year," I said."I'm on it. We can surely trace the person down.""Too late," I smiled coldly. "The cameras are here. Don't you think that person has already seen us? But..."I took out my lighter, and with a sound, a flame ignited."Someone's still here. Right?"The sky gradually darkened, and everyone in the office had already left.As I stood outside the office, I saw Tabitha. She was alone, working overtime.She stretched lazily on her seat, rubbed her stiff neck, and then turned off the lights and left.I restrained my aura and had Leo conceal his presence. Then I followed her.She walked quickly towards the elevator.I immediately followed up.

Tabitha's POVAfter I got home, I checked the trackers again. The one at the garbage disposal center was already gone, and the rest were still right where they had been.Lucian's phone was still turned off. I sighed.I was getting closer and closer to the truth, yet there was always something blocking my sight. I had no idea how to get rid of it.One good thing, though. The project went well. My plan passed the screening, and the company and I set a meeting time.I dressed up in a suit specifically. When I entered the door, I felt that my palms were perspiring.Pushing open the door, I smiled gracefully, "Hi there. I'm Tabitha Hartley, from the Greenwood Group."The good-looking young man wearing a white suit sitting smiled, too, "Hi, Tabitha. We meet again."I was stunned. "Jasper?"Only then did I realize. "The general manager of Austin Group is you actually?""Yeah." Jasper shrugged helplessly.Then I immediately asked, "Did

Tabitha's POV"Sure." I gave Jasper all of Dad's reports, and he examined them carefully.Time passed by slowly. After quite a while, he looked up at me.There was something different in his gaze."Tabitha, perhaps there's still hope for John. If Matthew's doing the surgery, chances are, John's gonna make it."I sighed, "Yeah. If Matthew is doing the surgery. Too bad that I've tried almost everything, but he's still nowhere to be found.""Don't worry. I'll help with my connections."Standing by the bed, I wiped Dad's body with a warm towel. "I don't know if Dad can wait that long.""I'm sure he can."I turned and met Jasper's eyes shimmering with an inexplicable determination.After we came out of the hospital, he was energetic and bubbly again. "Why don't you buy me some dinner? I'm starving.""Sure. What's in your mind?"I grew up wishing I had a sibling. To me, the sweet Jasper was like my little brother."There's a

Tabitha's POVI smiled when I heard Derek's words. Seeing him frown, I knew my smile must have been very ironic.I broke his fingers one by one. "Alpha Derek, I've never asked you for anything. That so-called position of the Black Thorn Pack's Luna? Now that I've let go, it means nothing to me."His eyes flickered while I continued extremely calmly, "You know, in the past, I thought you were the best thing that happened to me, and nothing in this world beat the second you smiled at me. But when I walked alone with a tired body, I realized that I was wrong. In fact, everything in this world is better than you."I gently raised my hand and used my slender fingers to gently caress his face in front of me that I had once loved with all my heart."Derek, to say that I've already forgotten you completely would be a lie. I still have feelings for you, and perhaps I still will for a long time. You'll still affect my mood. But ... I'm running outta energy to think ab

Tabitha's POV"He didn't do it, but the photos indeed came from him. Everyone knows he's a lecher, and any pretty woman can lure him easily. You know what? Maybe some woman used his phone to send them to Ms. Mendoza," Emma analyzed."You're right."The last thing the mastermind behind the scenes wanted was for me to know about his or her identity.The person was certain that I'd pin it on Henry and look into him.I had to say that the person was quite scheming.But this happened to give me a direction to work on. I'd know the whole truth as long as I knew who had approached Henry.Great! I was one step closer to the truth. Instantly, I was in a much better mood. After all, it was the only good news I had heard these few days.Yet in the next second, someone I was familiar with entered Group C's office.She was dressed decently with delicate makeup. Seeing that, the receptionist greeted her nicely."Ma'am, who are you here for?"

Tabitha's POVDerek's overwhelming Alpha aura filled the entire office.Holly swallowed and said, "I did it for your sake. I know Tabitha's been pestering you. Now that you're about to get engaged to Daphne, I wanna be of help."I was just about to open my mouth when Derek beat me to it. He said, "I think you've got one thing wrong."He placed the cup in front of her and continued, "I've been the one pestering Tabitha."His words were like a slap in Holly's face.She failed to come back to her senses even after quite a while. Then she stammered, "What? How ... could it be? You... You and Tabitha have been on bad terms, right? Besides, you've already gone through the rejection ceremony. And you have kids with Daphne already. So, I figured...""Seeing isn't always believing, not to mention it's all rumors. It's your family's affairs, so I wasn't in a place to say anything, but I'd like to remind you something. Tabitha is your daughter, and Daphne is

Rolf was so focused on escaping that he barely had time to marvel at the spectacle unfolding before him."If this isn't a nightmare, I don't know what is", he thought, sprinting for his life.He knew if he fell, he'd be bitten to death by the venomous snakes.Never in his life had Rolf run so fast. He sprinted in the direction of the sound, desperation lending him strength.Up ahead, perched in a peach tree like a guardian angel, sat Hedwig.Her tiny fingers danced over a bamboo flute, its melody ringing in the charged air.To Rolf and Misha, however, the "ding-dong" notes felt like a death knell tolling ever closer.Snakes swarmed from all directions like a rising tide. Rolf knew if this kept up, they'd both end up as snake fodder.Panic clawed at his throat. Without a word to Misha, he unceremoniously dumped her onto the ground.Misha was still disoriented when she was roughly thrown to the ground. Before she could rea

"Agreed," Alvin replied. The memory of Hedwig's earlier glare at Misha sent a shiver down his spine.He had a foreboding that Misha might already be in Hedwig's crosshairs.Given that this was Hedwig's home turf, Alvin worried their group might not stand a chance in a confrontation.This added a layer of anxiety to an already tense situation.Meanwhile, Tabitha remained fast asleep, a serene smile playing on her lips.After a short play with the fawn, a pigeon flew in from outside the cave and landed on Hedwig's shoulder, cooing softly. Hedwig paused at the sound, glancing at Tabitha still lost in slumber.With a moment of hesitation, she quietly rose and tiptoed away, not wanting to disturb Tabitha's rest.Misha, who had always sailed through life with ease, had encountered her greatest challenge in the form of unrequited love.Ever since Derek had rescued her, she had vowed to marry him when she grew up.Throughout her

Hedwig nodded understandingly, her face lighting up with innocent joy.She carefully lowered herself onto the lawn and gently pressed a sweet kiss to Tabitha's cheek, her movements as delicate as a butterfly's wings.Her movements were incredibly gentle, for fear of disturbing Tabitha.Then, she sat quietly by the pool, watching butterflies dance around them—a scene so serene it could have been plucked from a masterpiece painting.Tabitha's exhaustion overwhelmed her, her eyelids growing heavier by the second until she drifted into a deep sleep by the pool's edge.Her long, silk-like hair cascaded down, and without her mask, her porcelain skin glowed.Compared to before, she seemed even more beautiful now, like a sleeping fairy, radiating an enchanting charm.Hedwig stayed by her side without disturbing Tabitha, quietly gathering herbs nearby with focused and skillful movements.The forest creatures adored her—a faw

Misha watched Tabitha and Alma walk away, her anger flaring up again.She glared at the back of Tabitha's head and instinctively touched her red cheek.Growing up, she had never been treated like this. The humiliation filled her heart with resentment."Once Derek's poison is neutralized, I'll make them pay", she vowed silently.Alban, seeing the hatred in Misha's eyes, felt a chill.He knew Misha's background—her family's influence was no secret. He'd brought her here out of concern for Derek's blood type.Having watched Misha and Derek grow up, he was well aware of their temperaments.Given Misha's current state, he feared she would cause more trouble.So, he tried to persuade her again, "Look, things are under control here. It's not proper for a young lady like you to stay. I'll have someone escort you out.""I'm not leaving, Dr. Weaver. I'm staying to take care of Derek!" Misha said stubbornly, turning her head

Misha's eyes welled up the moment she saw Derek awake. She lunged toward him, crying, "I've been so worried!"Derek sidestepped her embrace instinctively and said coolly, "I'm fine. I've delayed you long enough. I need to stay for treatment; you should head back."Misha's jaw dropped in shock.Misha had traveled so far and gone through so much, only to hear Derek tell her to leave as soon as he woke up."I need to care for you—your eyesight's impaired. I've already taken leave," she pleaded."You'll be fine. Rolf and Alvin are here. It's not convenient for you, a young woman, to stay," Derek insisted.Misha stamped her foot in frustration. "What's inconvenient about it? You're not married, and neither am I. Remember when we were on missions together? We took care of each other then, didn't we?"Alma happened to pass by and overhear the conversation, finally realizing that Misha had been the one making advances all along.

Derek jolted awake after an hour of sleep.In a daze, sensing someone beside him, he instinctively pulled them into his arms, exclaiming, "Tabitha, you came for me."Alvin sighed, "Alpha Derek, it's me."Derek fumbled blindly in the air, urgency lacing his voice, "Where's Tabitha? Where did she go?""You were dreaming again," Alvin explained patiently."A dream?" Derek frowned, confusion washing over him.But why did the dream feel so real? So real that he could almost feel the give of Tabitha's skin, recall the touch of her body, and even remember the warmth of her flesh. Her voice still seemed to linger in his ears."Tabitha's probably miles away. She couldn't be here," Alvin added.Derek's heart sank, the joy from moments ago replaced by emptiness. It felt as though he'd found his most precious treasure, only to realize it was just a dream.He bowed his head, a bitter smile tugging at his lips. "Right, how could I rea
Alpha's Wife Hunt Chapter 793
At Derek's words, Tabitha was suddenly reminded of his words from years ago, when he had said the person in his dreams was her.She couldn't help but wonder what exactly this scoundrel had done to her in his dreams."Tabitha, hold me," Derek pleaded like a petulant child.Tabitha recalled the early days of their marriage. Back then, Derek was reticent and self-absorbed in bed, rarely showing any emotion or expressing his feelings.She often doubted whether he even liked her, if not for the fact that his actions left her bedridden the next day.Derek had locked all his emotions in an airtight box, allowing no one to peek inside.But over the years, their dynamics had done a complete turnaround.Now, Tabitha buried her feelings deep within, becoming cold and distant, while Derek had transformed into someone unrecognizably vulnerable and open.At this moment, Derek was like an overly affectionate, enthusiastic dog, intimately fami

Tabitha was deeply focused on listening to Derek's heartbeat. Irritated by his question, she simply hushed him with a "Shh" and said, "Don't talk." Her attention was entirely on his heart rate. She had no intention of being distracted by others.After finishing with his heartbeat, Tabitha gently pried open Derek's eyelids for a closer look.His pupils were dull and lifeless, making it impossible to assess the internal damage with the naked eye.It seemed that only after administering the antidote and conducting a professional examination outside could they determine the extent of the eye damage.Tabitha silently resolved that if they could just detoxify him, there would be hope for the gradual recovery of his other organs.At Tabitha's "Shh," Derek obediently fell silent.Despite feeling as though he were in a dream, he cherished this fleeting moment, thinking that even an extra minute with Tabitha would give him more memories to hold onto i

Derek clung to Tabitha like a koala to a tree trunk, refusing to let go.His voice was urgent and filled with longing as he declared, "Tabitha, you have no idea how long I've been searching for you! Every day, every night, your image haunted my thoughts. I was such a fool. If I had known you would vanish completely, I never would have let you go."Tabitha's heart skipped a beat at his words.Recalling her departure, she realized how strange it had been—how smoothly she had left.Back then, Tabitha had barely left when someone came chasing after her. Had Derek known of her plan from the start?If he had wanted to stop her, he could have nipped her plan in the bud."Why did you let me go, then?" she asked.Derek, lost in the joy of their reunion, poured out his feelings unreservedly. "I've always felt guilty for the wrongs I did you. I wanted to make amends."Tabitha gazed into Derek's eyes, noticing the red marks on his face.Despite his usual handsomeness, these marks added an air of
