In reality, Frank had deliberately stalled upstairs to give the Alpha more time alone with Olivia. He knew Connor treasured every moment with her.
After receiving the properly processed documents, Olivia prepared to leave. “Thank you for handling this so quickly.”
Connor offered to escort her. “Let me walk you to your car.”
“That’s not necessary,” Olivia declined. “My driver is waiting in the parking area.”
Connor’s face showed clear reluctance to let her go. He watched her retreating figure until she disappeared from view.
Helen observed this scene with growing understanding. It seemed the Alpha was still in the process of courting his intended mate, which explained why Olivia insisted she wasn’t the Alpha’s Luna yet.
The way Connor’s shoulders slumped slightly after Olivia left revealed his vulnerability. Helen had never imagined the powerful Alpha could look so forlorn.
Meanwhile, upstairs in the Rivers Pack Headquarters Executive Floor Reception, Miranda Blackwoou had been waiting for nearly forty minutes. She had called Connor twice without receiving an answer.
Growing impatient, she approached the secretary’s office to inquire about his whereabouts. “Excuse me, where is Alpha Rivers? I’ve been waiting for our scheduled meeting.”
The secretary looked confused. “He finished his previous meeting half an hour ago. I’m not sure where he went.”
(Olivia’s POV)
Over the weekend, I took Emma Thompson to Harbor City to meet a client. The business trip had gone smoothly, and we were walking through the upscale shopping district when I spotted a familiar figure.
Sophie Parker stood outside an expensive boutique, her perfectly styled blonde hair catching the afternoon sunlight. She wore a designer dress that probably cost more than most werewolves made in a month.
My steps slowed involuntarily. Sophie had been one of the werewolves who frequently attended the same elite pack gatherings as Ethan Grey. I remembered her from those uncomfortable social events where I often felt like an outsider among the Grey pack’s inner circle.
Sophie noticed me and her face lit up with what appeared to be genuine delight. “Olivia! What a wonderful surprise!”
She approached with arms outstretched, as if we were old friends reuniting after years apart. The familiar scent of her expensive perfume brought back memories I’d rather forget.
“Hello, Sophie,” I replied politely, keeping my distance.
Emma stood beside me, sensing the tension in my posture. Her protective instincts as my assistant kicked in, though she remained silent.
“You look absolutely radiant,” Sophie gushed, her eyes scanning my appearance with the calculating gazel remembered so well. “Harbor City suits you.”
“Thank you,” I said simply.
Sophie’s smile widened. “We simply must catch up properly. There’s this amazing new restaurant that just opened – very exclusive, perfect for our kind. Let me treat you to dinner tonight.”
The invitation hung in the air between us. Part of me wanted to refuse immediately, but politeness held my tongue for a moment.
“That’s very kind of you, but I’m afraid I can’t,” I declined gently.
Sophie’s expression faltered slightly. “Oh, come now. Surely you can spare a few hours for an old friend?”
Old friend. The words stung more than they should have.
I remembered buying a platinum wolf pendant worth tens of thousands of dollars for Sophie’s birthday. It had been the latest design from a prestigious jewelry house, identical to the one Cassandra had given her.
At that same party, other pack members had ridiculed me for supposedly buying a fake neckla remained silent, tacitly agreeing with their mockery. ophie had
From that day on, I saw Sophie clearly. Like Ethan’s other friends, she looked down on me from the bottom of her heart, thinking I wasn’t worthy of being friends with werewolves in their elite circle.
“I really do have prior commitments,” I said firmly. “Perhaps another time.”
Sophie’s mask slipped for just a moment, revealing the disdain I remembered so well. But she quickly recovered, her smile returning.
“Of course, I understand. You must be terribly busy with your… legal work.”
The slight pause before “legal work” spoke volumes. Even now, she couldn’t quite hide her condescension
“Yes, very busy,” I agreed. “Emma, we should go.”
Emma nodded immediately, falling into step beside me as we walked away.
I stayed in Harbor City for three days, handling client meetings and reviewing case files. When I returned to Riverdale, it was already May 20th, Wednesday.
As I got off the plane and came out of the VIP channel of the business class, I saw Connor Rivers waiting outside at a glance.
My steps slowed involuntarily. Why is he here?
Connor was wearing a dark gray suit, his shoulder line straight, and his casual posture revealed an innate sense of nobility that marked him as an Alpha. Other werewolves in the terminal instinctively gave him space, recognizing his dominant aura.
I walked over, raised my eyes to look at the man in front of me, and said in a cold tone, “How did you know I was coming back today?”
“I checked your flight information,” Connor replied simply.
The casual admission irritated me. “My family’s driver will pick me up, there’s no need for Alpha Rivers to make this trip.”
After saying that, I didn’t stop and walked towards the parking lot. Emma followed me, dragging a suitcase.
(Connor’s POV)
I quickly caught up and snatched the suitcase from Emma’s hands. “Olivia, take my car, I have two new legal cases that need to be entrusted to you.”
Olivia stopped and turned to look at me. Her amber eyes held that familiar wariness I was trying so hard to overcome.
“I brought all the Rivers Pack Legal Case Portfolio materials, they’re in the car. Come with me to take a look,” I said seriously.
“Okay,” Olivia replied after a moment’s hesitation.
If it was work, then she really couldn’t refuse. I felt a surge of satisfaction at finding a legitimate reason to spend time with her.
My slender hands dragged the suitcase’s handle, and my superior height and commanding presence zed my attracted the attention of many passersby along the way. Other werewolves instinctively rec dominant aura.
When we arrived at the underground parking lot, I led Olivia and Emma to my black Connor’s Luxury Cullinan SUV. I personally put the suitcase into the car, taking care to ensure Olivia’s belongings were secure.
In the car, I drove while Emma and Olivia sat in the back row. The arrangement wasn’t ideal, but at least Olivia was in my vehicle.
“Are you hungry? Do you want to eat first?” I glanced at Olivia in the back row through the car’s rearview mirror.
“Not hungry yet, where are the case materials? I’ll take a look first,” Olivia replied.
“In the passenger seat,” I answered.
Hearing this, Olivia leaned forward and reached out to get the legal document case. With the sudden approach, the light floral and fruity fragrance from Olivia’s body penetrated my heightened werewolf senses.
I inhaled lightly, and my heart raced. It had been a long time since Lhad been so close to Olivia.
However, this beautiful moment was fleeting. Olivia took the case bag and returned to her seat in the back.
Disappointment welled up in my heart. I watched her in the rearview mirror as she sat in the back row, looking down with her eyes slightly lowered, focusing on the Rivers Pack Legal Case Portfolio materials.
About twenty minutes later, Olivia raised her head and asked me some questions about the cases. I answered them one by one with my characteristic patience, grateful for any excuse to engage with her.
