Semua Bab Contract With Alpha Theodore: Bab 241 - Bab 250

Third Person's POV"The Graves family was highly respected overseas back in the day. Theodore was spotted by Mr. Graves and got the chance to make a name for himself there. So, in a way, Mr. Graves was a mentor to Theodore.""After Theodore struck out on his own, the Graves family fell on hard times. When Mr. Graves passed away, Theodore acquired the Graves family business.""So now the Graves family company is actually Theodore's?"Grace nodded. "Gillian is Mr. Graves' only daughter. He wanted Theodore to honor his memory and take care of her, basically just financially support her. But Gillian sees it differently. She insists she's Theodore's fiancée."As she spoke, Grace tapped her temple. "I think she's a bit off up here."At that moment, a weak voice called out from nearby, "Theo..."Vanya turned around and saw Gillian, pale-faced and in a hospital gown, emerging from a room.Theodore glanced back, his brow furrowin

Third Person's POVVanya laughed and said, "I've got someone keeping an eye on Melinda's mom 24/7. She's dodging creditors daily—no cash for bail.""I've launched an investigation, but Melinda headed straight to the Todd villa upon release and's now under Veronica's protection. This might slow things down," Stewart added."No worries. Take your time. This isn't urgent," Vanya said."Not urgent?" Stewart questioned."If Melinda's out, she's resourceful. And with Veronica shielding her, who's going to touch her?" Vanya explained.Stewart fell silent for a moment, then said, "Understood.""Be thorough. The intel we gather now will come in handy sooner or later," Vanya said."Yes," Stewart agreed.After Stewart left, he hesitated again.Vanya noticed and asked, "What else is on your mind?""Vanya, there's another thing..."Stewart winced and said, "Today, Todd Media reached out. They want Gillian a

Third Person's POVVanya squinted against the flashbulbs, her brows knitting in annoyance.Calvert noticed and stepped in. He released her hand and strode over to the photographers, his broad palm covering a lens as he murmured a few words.The photographer paled and fled.When Calvert returned, Vanya frowned. "What did you say to him?"Calvert's lips curled into a cryptic smile. "I told him if he kept snapping, I might smash his camera and let rival media splash the story on the front page. His gear would be ruined, and he'd lose his scoop—not a great way to stay in journalism."Vanya was left speechless.She'd pegged Calvert as sly and strategic, and this only confirmed it.Cliff, spotting Vanya and Calvert's closeness, furrowed his brow.Elliot, alerted by security, rushed in, flustered. "Alpha Cliff! Miss Coleman and Madam Todd are here!""Who invited them?" Cliff snapped."Jenny couldn't stop Ver

Third Person's POV"What does that mean?"Veronica asked blankly, turning to Melinda beside her. "Why would Cliff say that?""I don't know either," Melinda said, her face pale.She continued, "It can't be that the Dalton Group is now more powerful than us, can it?"The Todd Group was the dominant force in Los Angeles—everyone knew that.The Dalton Group was supposed to be on its last legs. Why would Cliff say something like that?"Veronica, you've disrupted Alpha Cliff's entire plan today!" Elliot could hold back no longer. He said no more and turned to find Cliff."Veronica, don't take it to heart. It's all..." Melinda began, but Veronica suddenly struck her with a slap.Melinda's face changed in an instant.Veronica glanced at her coldly and said, "This is all because of you, you slut, seducing Cliff! No wonder the Todd Group has such a scandal!"Melinda was seething with anger but dared not retort.

Third Person's POVThe butler, drenched in sweat, ushered Vanya out. It was the first time anyone had dared to broach such a topic with Edwin.Vanya followed the butler out, gazing at the vast Hammond estate. She couldn't help but marvel at its sheer scale. She wondered how Edwin had managed to bear the immense pressure of leading the family.On the balcony, Theodore leaned against the wall, hidden behind the curtains."You've been suffering from severe depression, and yet I didn't notice, but she did," he mused, his tone laced with amusement.His expression seemed to say, "She's truly remarkable."Turning to Edwin, Theodore said, "As your close friend, shouldn't you tell me what's really been troubling you?""Is it the Hammond family?" Theodore thought to himself. "But the family's trivial matters are mere trifles to someone as astute as Edwin.""Or is it his legs? No, Edwin would never be so preoccupied with something like th
