Chapter 9

Author: Sun Keeper
This time, no matter how Vivian cried, apologized, or desperately begged for forgiveness, none of them budged.

Harlow personally threw her out of the house.

Soon afterward, they watched the rest of the surveillance footage.

On the screen, I was carrying my old, battered suitcase as I quietly walked out the front door.

The timestamp overlapped with the time they had just arrived home.

They realized that I had most likely overheard what they said after getting out of the car. It was about how

  • They'll Miss Me When I'm Gone    Chapter 10

    The Alpha King approached us.It turned out he hadn't left. He had been silently watching from a distance.Everyone immediately knelt respectfully.The Alpha King walked to my side and reached out to steady me. He stood protectively beside me.Looking down at Damian, who was kneeling on the ground, he spoke with unquestionable authority."Ophelia is treasured by the entire werewolf kingdom. No one is permitted to disrespect her."Under the crushing pressure, Damian struggled to raise his head.Clenching his jaw, he tried to defend himself despite his pale face."Your Majesty, I am her mate! We only had a minor disagreement. I never intended to hurt her."The Alpha King ignored him. Instead, he turned to face me with a questioning look.I stepped forward and calmly looked at Damian."Without completing the marking ceremony, we were never truly mates."Damian, I don't love you anymore."We have no relationship now."Damian looked horrified."How can you say that? Ophelia,

It was about how they couldn't bear the thought of Vivian being marked by Damian.Mom covered her face and began to cry. Meanwhile, Harlow and Dad slumped weakly against the sofa.Damian had no idea what had happened, but he could tell that something else had gone terribly wrong, so he didn't dare ask.They were eager to find me.After checking the flights that had departed since then, they discovered that there had been only one flight to Royal City.Convinced that I had gone there, they quickly bought th

    "Let's try calling her first."After saying that, Harlow retrieved his phone.But when he called, he discovered that my number was no longer in service. All of my social media accounts had also been deleted.Damian thought for a moment."Who was the last person to see Ophelia that day?"Mom hesitated."Perhaps the maid."She immediately called the maid into the dining room."Did Ophelia say anything to you before she left? Did you notice anything unusual?"The maid lowered her head while nervously fidgeting with her fingers."Ophelia was knocked to the floor that day. You all took Vivian to the healer's den. I wanted to help Ophelia get up, but I noticed that her hands were severely swollen. It looked like a serious allergic reaction."She refused my help and went back to her room by herself. I never saw her again after that.""An allergic reaction?"Mom froze. The color gradually drained from her face.She vaguely recalled that, a long time ago, I had mentioned being all

    Meanwhile, my work at the Royal Werewolf Research Institute quickly settled into a routine.I was very patient. To verify a single hypothesis, I could stay in the laboratory for two weeks without leaving.I didn't find it exhausting. This simple yet fulfilling life gave me a sense of peace and stability.Before long, I earned the appreciation of the chief researcher.My colleagues were also very kind and often invited me to afternoon tea.My own family couldn't remember my favorite food or the things I was allergic to, but my colleagues could.Occasionally, in the quiet of the night, I would still think about the family and memories I had left behind, but I realized that they could no longer stir any emotions within me.They had chosen Vivian, and I had chosen myself.I assumed that without me, the werewolf they found so unpleasant, getting in their way, they were probably living together happily.But I was only half right.At first, they truly believed that I would eventuall

    The lock turned with a click.Harlow pushed the door open.He expected to see me lying there, barely alive, and perhaps crying bitterly in remorse, but that wasn't the case at all.The room was empty, and the bed was perfectly made. There wasn't a single crease to suggest that anyone had slept in it.Harlow froze in the doorway."What are you standing there for?"Dad, whose view was blocked by Harlow's broad back, frowned impatiently."Did that wretched girl go crazy in there and trash the whole room?"Harlow turned around in bewilderment. "No. There's no one in the room. Ophelia isn't here," he said with a tone of disbelief."How's that possible?" Mom asked confusedly.Dad snorted and stepped forward before pushing Harlow aside.As he walked into the room, he said with certainty, "Harlow, you're being foolish. Don't let her little tricks fool you. She must have heard us coming and gotten scared, so she's hiding somewhere."Dad looked around the dimly lit room. His tone w

    I boarded a plane bound for Royal City.Meanwhile, my parents and Harlow pushed open the doors of the villa."Damn it. Why is it so dark? Ophelia? Ophelia!"Harlow's angry voice echoed through the empty living room."Come out and explain yourself!"When no one answered, Dad frowned deeply.The maid stepped out of her room, keeping her eyes lowered."Mr. Perry, Harlow, Ophelia went back to her room earlier. Perhaps she's already sleeping and didn't hear you.""Didn't hear us? I think she's just feeling guilty."Harlow's expression darkened as he moved toward my door. He clearly intended to kick it open.Mom stepped forward and stopped him. "Ophelia is an adult now. You shouldn't just barge into her room. Talk to her properly."Harlow reluctantly stopped and pounded hard on my door."Ophelia, stop hiding in there and pretending not to hear me. I know you're in there!"There was nothing but silence.His patience quickly ran out.He sneered."Mom, do you really think she wa
