Filed to story: The Luna is Secret Heiress Book PDF Free by Sylvia

A few years ago, after graduating from a top ten world-renowned university, she refused to go home and inherit the family business. Instead, she chose to start her own business and create her own fashion brand.

In recent years, her company had developed well overseas and had already gone public. Now, she was confident enough, excellent enough, and enough of a match for Connor Rivers.

She had inquired about Olivia’s recent situation as soon as she returned to the territory. When she learned that Olivia was just a small lawyer with no fame, Miranda breathed a sigh of relief.

At least in terms of ability and career, she had a competitive advantage.

Seeing that I couldn’t persuade her, I stopped trying. Some battles had to be fought, even if the outcome seemed predetermined.

Back home, I looked worried as I paced around our living room.

Gabriel looked up from his tablet and asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Gabriel, do you know that Miranda likes Connor?” I asked directly.

“Miranda likes Connor?” Gabriel raised his eyebrows in surprise. “I really didn’t know that. When did that happen?”

There were too many she-wolves who liked Connor Rivers. Someone like Connor wouldn’t bring up things that others confessed to him as conversation starters.

Miranda had found a private place to confess, so it was normal that Gabriel didn’t know about it.

I only knew because I had a close friend who knew Miranda’s best friend at the time. Once, when we were having afternoon tea, that friend accidentally let it slip.

That friend then begged us not to tell anyone, otherwise Miranda would break off their friendship.

Miranda was very proud. She was the daughter of the prestigious Silverridge pack, a she-wolf that many alphas couldn’t win even if they loved her.

She didn’t want people to know that her confession had been rejected.

I wasn’t the type to spread gossip. I had promised Miranda’s friend not to tell anyone, so even though I knew about it, I had never told anyone, including Lily and Olivia.

At that time, I only knew that Miranda had been rejected. But I didn’t know the reason why Connor had rejected Miranda.

In other words, didn’t know that the she-wolf Connor cared for was my best friend, Olivia.

Later, when Olivia and Connor formed their mate bond, Miranda had already been abroad for several years. I thought that Miranda might have forgotten Connor long ago, so there was even less need to mention it,

Now that Miranda had returned to the territory, I thought that since Miranda was planning to openly pursue. Connor, it wouldn’t count as breaking my promise if I told others now.

So I honestly replied, “She confessed before she went abroad, but Connor rejected her.”

Gabriel raised his eyebrows. “Is that so? I never heard Connor mention it.”

“There’s nothing to say about this kind of thing,” I pouted. “She asked me to meet today and said she still can’t let go of Connor and plans to openly pursue him.”

“Ah?” Gabriel was genuinely surprised. “I remember she went abroad a long time ago, right? Hasn’t she let go after all this time?”

“Yeah,” I said with a worried face. “I see that Olivia hasn’t let go either. Who do you think Connor will choose?”

“Is there even a need to say?” Gabriel smiled confidently. “In Connor’s eyes, as long as Olivia is there, it won’t be a multiple-choice question.”

My furrowed brows relaxed, and I smiled. “I feel relieved now that you say that. After all, you are his closest friend and should know him best.”

Gabriel nodded. “Connor secretly loved Olivia for many years. He would never let go easily.”

Speaking of this, Gabriel suddenly asked, “What’s the situation with that Adrian Sinclair? There’s no multiple-choice question with Connor, but what about Olivia’s side?”

“This…” I shook my head uncertainly. “I really don’t know. When Olivia was hospitalized before, Adrian even went to the ancient shrine and climbed three thousand steps to pray for a protection charm for Olivia.”

I paused, considering. “His devotion is also very impressive. If I had to choose…”

I thought about it and found it difficult to make a choice myself. “They both love Olivia very much, and both their looks and pack backgrounds are very well-matched with Olivia. It’s hard to say.”

Gabriel lightly raised his eyebrows. “Originally, Connor and Olivia formed their mate bond naturally through a pack alliance, with no one pursuing anyone.”

He continued with growing interest. “Now, if he still wants to be with Olivia, he’ll have to do some pursuing. To be honest, I’m quite looking forward to seeing Connor pursuing someone.”

Gabriel’s eyes sparkled with amusement. “It’s a rare thing. I’ve never seen it in the past twenty-odd years.”

I grinned at the thought. “Now that you mention it, I’m looking forward to it too.”

(Olivia’s POV)

The weather was pleasant with bright sunshine streaming through the hospital windows. After Dr. Marcus Thornfield confirmed my wounds were healing well and that I would be discharged in a week, I felt well enough to visit the Silverridge Medical Gardens.

Emma Thompson and I left the hospital building together. The afternoon air was crisp and refreshing after being confined indoors for so long.

As we walked toward the gardens, I spotted a familiar figure near the main entrance. My steps slowed as recognition dawned.

Cassandra Evans stood by the hospital’s information desk, looking lost and distressed. What was she doing here?

I was surprised to see her at this particular hospital. Given our history and the ongoing legal battle stemming from her online defamation campaign against me, this seemed like an odd place for her to appear.

I recalled that Cassandra had been convicted of defamation and sentenced to one year in prison, suspended for one year. She was currently appealing the case through her lawyers.

What Cassandra didn’t know was that this hospital was owned by Silverridge Holdings under the Winters pack. She had no idea she was on my family’s territory.

Curiosity got the better of me. I decided to approach her and see what brought her here.

As I got closer, I noticed Cassandra’s pale face and red-rimmed eyes. She had clearly been crying recently.

This was a stark contrast to the last time we met. Back then, she had been proudly flaunting her pregnancy with Ethan Grey’s child and her impending mating into the Grey pack.

Now she looked broken and defeated. Her usual confident demeanor had completely vanished.

Cassandra saw me approaching and froze like a deer caught in headlights. Her green-gold eyes widened with panic.

“Cassandra,” I said with a bright smile, “aren’t you about to mate with Ethan Grey and become the Luna of the Grey pack?”

I tilted my head innocently. “Why haven’t I heard any news about your mating ceremony or upcoming bond ritual? Has the plan changed?”

Knowing that Grey Holdings was failing financially, I had a strong suspicion about why she was really here. The timing was too convenient to be coincidental.

Cassandra’s face flushed with anger. “What’s it to you?” she snapped defensively.

I feigned disappointment, placing a hand over my heart dramatically. “Since we’re acquaintances, I was thinking of giving you two a mating gift when you completed your bond.”

I sighed theatrically. “But it looks like that’s not going to happen. What a pity.”

“You’re being deliberately malicious!” Cassandra accused, her voice rising with frustration.

I smiled sweetly at her. “You’re absolutely right. I am.”

My expression grew more serious as I studied her appearance. “Are you here for an abortion, Cassandra?”

Cassandra’s green-gold eyes widened in shock. She almost blurted out the truth before catching herself.
