Rise Of The Hidden Heiress 165. Drunk amongst Wolves
Lumino Lounge is so serene and exotic as usual.Allister had made a reservation for us, but, surprisingly, he hasn’t shown up yet.A waiter brings forward a bottle of expensive red wine, but before he can open it, I stop him and tell him to come back as I need to urgently use the restroom.Lumino Lounge is so spacious, and they adopted the same spacious pattern for their restrooms.It runs a large span of space.I push inside one of the stalls only to overhear a phone conversation that is on speaker.The person on the other end of the line is dishing out instructions, but the instructions sound very worrisome.“You breathe as she breathes. Always be a step ahead of your game, and don’t mess tonight up. I’m counting on you.”I don’t get the receiver's reply, as she chose that moment to flush the toilet before she heads out of the stall.A few moments later, I push my stall open only to meet Stephanie about to head out.“Steph?” I call, surprised to see her here.“Oh, my goddess, Dr. Wh

I’m so absorbed in my work that I completely forget about my dinner plans with Allister until my phone’s notification beeped.“Hello, love of my life, just checking that you haven’t forgotten dinner tonight. Lumino lounge, in half an hour. Still coming, Bloom?”I close my eyes, guilt washing over me. “Alli, I’m so sorry, I completely lost track of time.” I quickly reply.Agreeing to help Gracie Melvin with her case meant running several tests on her and noting, especially her viral markers. Some of the test results came out early enough, so I compiled their results with clear explanations and forwarded them to Lawyer Calista.Then I plunged into making findings about Pelton the lawyer. Her full name is Pelton Oxad, and she's just thirty-three, working at one of the other law firms in Ashmere city.I’ve combed the internet thoroughly about her, but every single news report out there about her is impeccable.She is good at her job. Highly praised.Even without being told, I just knew s

“How many months ago did your upkeep money stop coming?” Calista, the lawyer Allister recommended, asks Gracie.We’ve settled at the meeting spot, with Calista jotting down stuff in a notepad.“Three months ago.”“How was the payment arrangement?”“They made a five percent upfront payment with the agreement that sixty percent will be spread out each month and the remaining 40% will come after delivery.”Calista’s lips drop down in shock, just like mine. “I’m sorry, Miss Gracie,” Calista calls, ‘how much is your fee in total?”“$2000,” Gracie replies, shocking everyone.“Two thousand what?!” I scream.Calista smiles awkwardly, “You’re joking, right?”Gracie shakes her head, “That was how much Miss Pelton told me I was going to be paid. She said lots of Omegas are venturing into surrogacy, so they are being paid so little. That I’m among the very few getting paid reasonably well because she put in a word for me.”“How much were you paid at the beginning of the process?”“I was paid $10

Twenty minutes later, I pull into the parking lot of Silver Valley Medical Center. I hurry past the reception area and take the elevator instead.Stephanie is in the waiting area, her arm around a young, heavily pregnant lady who can’t be more than twenty or twenty-one. Seated beside them is another lady, who is staring forward like she’s oblivious of the two people beside her.The pregnant girl’s shoulders are hunched protectively, her body language screaming vulnerability.Stephanie looks up with relief when she sees me. “Dr. White, thank you for coming so quickly.”I approach them hurriedly, my eyes filled with concern. All thoughts of my earlier embarrassment disappear as my professional instincts take over.“Hello, I say gently to the pregnant lady. “I’m Dr. White. Would you like to talk somewhere more private?”The girl looks up, her tired eyes taking me in for a moment. My wolf bristles protectively at the sight of how tired and worn out she looks.Has she even eaten? If yes,

~Jess~Agnes’s apartment is the true definition of luxury.One wouldn’t expect less, knowing the type of family she comes from and the fact that she is damn good at interior decoration.She decorated my current apartment when I was still in Uni, and when I got back to Silver Valley, I didn’t see the need to change the decoration because it‘s still perfect to me, and it does remind me of several old memories.We’re lounging beside her outdoor swimming pool, watching the vast landscape that towers above the land her house is built on.“Gosh, your home is a dream, Aggy,” I groan, adjusting my glasses. “If I ever want to get an apartment that lets me escape the bustle of Ashmere city, I will definitely look toward this area.”“So true,” Ursula agrees. “It’s like an easy escape from reality.”“But it’s quite far from Blemn. I was thinking of renting a small studio apartment at Blemn, and visit this one during weekends. But I don’t want to, anymore,” She says, looking sad.“Why not?” I ask

Our Mother’s shoe flies across the room and hits Collins square in the chest.The absurdity of the Luna throwing her shoe at her own son would have been a funny sight if the room weren’t already suffocating with grief.“Are you stupid?” My mother’s voice sounds. “Why would you say that about Julie?”Collins screams back at her. “Why would you throw a shoe at me?!” He kicks at the fallen shoe, sending it skidding across the floor.“Were we not all just here? Did we not hear him say his wife is going to die? I am asking a simple question! He wants to take her to an island to die. So does that mean he is giving up being Alpha?”Edmenan smiles and waves his hands to dismiss the brewing conflict. “Colly’s question is okay,” he says in a tired but calm voice. “It’s fine.”He looks down at his hands and shakes his head, “I have no plan of becoming Alpha again,” he says quietly. “Not after Julie passes. I won’t be able to take on the role.”“Edmenan, don’t say that,” I tell him. “You are dest

Allister’s lips curl with undisguised disdain. His eyes are cold as he looks down at me.“Fool,” he mutters.The humiliation burns through me. Never in my entire life would I have thought that I would be hurting this much just because of a mere Omega, who is, by all ramifications, way below my feet

~Jess~It doesn’t look like Agnes will forgive me soon for going shopping for Luna Celine’s gala with only Allister without inviting her.It took a verbal intervention from a soft-spoken Julian to finally get her to agree that she has an outfit worthy of the Luna’s gala.“When we finally settled fo

~Rhea~Celine Blackwaters voice reaches me where I stand eavesdropping on her conversation with Grandma Regi.“I do not know what else you want from me when the person involved already made his choice.” She tells Grandma.“She is not the right woman for him,” Grandma Regi insists. “Celine, look aro

~Rosie~ Gideon looks tired of me. I can see it in the way he rubs his forehead like I’m a migraine that won’t go away. “I’ve introduced you to four lawyers, Rosie,” he says slowly, like he’s explaining arithmetic to a child. “Four. The best in the region.” I cross my arms, pacing his office. “An
