LOGINTabitha's POV
Joanna was a kind-hearted werewolf. Though her family was far from being well-off, she always remained optimistic.I found her optimism contagious.In her, I seemed to see my past self. She was like sunshine, happy all the time as if even the end of the world would not bring her down."Just like me, all you need to do is lift the corners of your mouth gently. Your baby inside your belly will also be happy when you're in a better mood."Joanna beamed, her smile pure and sincere.Maybe it was her warm smile, or maybe her mentioning the baby cheered me up. Unconsciously, I placed my palm on my belly, and a small smile crept onto my face without me even realizing it.Joanna, noticing it, jumped in joy."I knew it, Ms. Hartley. You look absolutely stunning when you smile. You are the most beautiful and exquisite person I've ever seen. If you were to enter showbiz, you would surely become a big star," she exclaimed, her tone dripping wTabitha suddenly twisted the acupuncture needle with force. Daphne was instantly silenced, her only sound a tormented whimper.Tabitha looked at Daphne and slowly said, "Miss Sutton, some things cannot be erased with just an 'I didn't mean it.' Just like the dead can never be brought back to life."Daphne looked into Tabitha's eyes. She felt a strangely familiar pang, yet she was certain she had never seen this face before.She said despairingly, "So what do you want me to do? The man is dead. Fine, I'll go join him! Why are you even saving me?"Tabitha replied, "Because the living should have the pain the dead suffered forever carved into their soul.""Who are you? Grandpa, I don't want her treating me anymore."Daphne felt a primal terror. She saw a hatred directed at her—and the shadow of Tabitha—in this woman's eyes.Tabitha vanished without a trace after she left. Some said she was already dead.Even if she was
If Daphne had only killed Holly, Tabitha might not be doing this right now.But killing John—the man who was Tabitha's loving father for half her life—was unforgivable.Tabitha had fought tooth and nail to save John's life. He was slowly getting better; he would have been living normally in a year or two.Daphne's utter ignorance ruined everything.Her cruel words were what finally killed him.What did John do wrong? What did Tabitha do wrong?Now, she didn't have a father anymore.John had been so excited about her twins, but he died before he ever got to see their faces.Tabitha blamed Daphne for all of it. John was lying in a cold grave. Why did Daphne get to sit here, living easy, enjoying her spoiled princess life?She was going to make Daphne pay back every single bit of suffering Tabitha endured, and multiply the pain of John's death a thousand times over.Before the needles, Tabitha tossed a tu
"This jerk! Does he not see where we are?"Tabitha was clearly annoyed, giving him a scolding look.Derek, however, deliberately licked the fingertip that Tabitha had just touched, and whispered, "That grape was pretty sweet."His move instantly reminded Tabitha of a seductive character from a classic movie. Derek was in a crisp suit, looking completely reserved, yet the action was incredibly provocative!Tabitha couldn't help it. She was biting the grape and some juice accidentally leaked from the corner of her mouth.Seeing this, Derek propped one hand on the sofa armrest, used the other to hook her chin, and leaned in for a kiss.Tabitha's eyes instantly widened. "Seriously? What is he doing?"She was here for revenge, and he was using it as an opportunity for a secret thrill?Was Derek that unrestrained beneath the surface?The kiss was soft and lingering, the sweet grape juice spreading between their lips.Ju
Derek finally remembered he was here under the pretense of visiting Daphne. He finally looked at her.After years, Daphne was noticeably thinner, her complexion sickly pale. She sat in the wheelchair, looking up at him with pitiful eyes.If this were before, Derek might have shown her some compassion for Randall's sake. But remembering all the suffering Tabitha went through, he felt no sympathy. He just asked coldly, "Long time no see. How have you been?""How have I been?"Daphne's life was bleak and miserable, with every day dragging on.But she could only choke back tears and say, word by word, "I... I'm fine.""Alpha Derek, don't worry. I'm taking care of my sister; nothing bad will happen to her," Calvin interjected, successfully drawing Derek's attention.Derek was aware of the recent changes in the Amber's Eye Pack. His memory of Calvin was from childhood—a scrawny, sickly kid. He never expected him to grow up to be the m
Tabitha wanted to cover her ears, listening to the vulgar language coming from inside the room.She saw Daphne covering her face with both hands. Tears streamed silently through her fingers. She kept whispering Derek's name, over and over.What a pair of psychos.Derek arrived quickly. Tabitha had planned to leave and come back another day.She felt it would be weird to run into Derek in this situation.But before she could say goodbye to Alpha Elliott, Derek rushed in with a couple of his people.Years ago, Daphne had done so many terrible things, causing the deaths of Mark and his wife and John. Alpha Elliott was helpless.Since the Amber's Eye Pack was clearly in the wrong, all he could do was let Derek break the engagement.For years, Daphne tried to win Derek back and make up for her mistakes, but Derek had blocked her and was unreachable.Now, getting to see Derek, even briefly, was exciting for both Daphne and Alpha Elliott.If Derek hadn't refused the inheritance, he would hav
Derek immediately hung up.Daphne's sickly face lit up instantly, like a dying person's last surge of energy.Tabitha glanced at Calvin, who intentionally looked away.But the cold glint in his eyes was caught by Tabitha."Looks like Derek isn't the only one who's crazy."Daphne's face was full of joy. She grabbed Alpha Elliott's hand. "Grandpa, did you hear that? Derek is coming to see me! This outfit is too old. I need to wear a new dress."Tabitha took the opportunity to speak up. "Since Miss Sutton is so busy, I'm leaving now."Everyone immediately panicked when they heard Tabitha was leaving."No, no! I worked so hard to find you! You can't leave! My granddaughter's leg depends on you!" Alpha Elliott pleaded anxiously."Yes, Dr. Vanessa, please check her leg first! Miss Sutton, this is Dr. Vanessa, the one I told you about. She's excellent and specializes in multiple fields! She just said she could get you back on y
