Third Person’s POV
Christine arrived with the Ironclaw Pack, beating the Bloodmoon Pack’s group to the scene.
Upon entering, she first greeted Priscilla. Seeing Germain’s family present, Christine’s face paled.
This was truly embarrassing.
Led by Beata, Christine made her way to the lounge. No sooner had she entered than she apologized to Adelaide, “I’m so sorry, Luna Adelaide. Gloria’s behavior was uncalled for. I offer my sincere apologies.
Adelaide waved off the apology. “You’re here at the right time. Take Gloria home. I’ve already informed the Bloodmoon Pack, but I doubt they’ll send anyone to the Blackthorn Pack. Do us a favor and take her back.”
Gloria looked up with her swollen, tearful eyes.
Christine glanced at her coldly before turning back to Adelaide. “Very well. I’ll take her home and apologize again later.”
Approaching Gloria, Christine asked icily, “Are you leaving on your own, or shall I have you escorted out?”
Gloria glanced at the burly maids behind Christine. Despite her anger, she stood and followed.
Adelaide coolly remarked, “First offenses are forgivable, but there won’t be a second chance. Next time, there’ll be consequences.” noveldrama
Gloria turned her head, wanting to say something to save her pride.
But under Adelaide’s cold stare, she froze. Christine gave her a push, and she left, seething with anger.
As soon as Gloria was out the door, Christine bowed to Adelaide again and apologized, “Luna Adelaide, I’m really sorry about this…”
Adelaide cut in, “Was it you who told Eugene about Gloria and Melvin?”
Christine nodded. “Yes, and I’m sorry for the trouble.”
Adelaide knew Christine’s character. She respected her ability to distinguish right from wrong, even if it meant going against family.
Having a relative like Gloria really put her in a tough spot.
She said, “No need for apologies. Just take her home. The Blackthorn Pack is strict, and today’s incident. won’t leave our walls. But you saw the guests in the meeting hall, right?”
Christine felt drained. She hadn’t expected Gloria to accuse Adelaide and cause suc

“I can’t fathom why she’d suspect me. I should’ve handled the aftermath better.”
Adelaide explained, “She saw Melvin and me at the Digby Medical Center that day. She probably thinks

Melvin told me, and I told Eugene. This isn’t your fault. You didn’t know we’d crossed paths there
“No wonder. She’s impulsive and assumes others act as she would,” Christine sighed, weary and helpless
“I’m truly sorry for involving you, Luna Adelaide.”
“Don’t worry about it. Take her home now,” Adelaide said.
Adelaide understood her plight. She’d managed the Bloodmoon Pack before, a real mess. She knew how frustrating it was to deal with unreasonable people.
“By the way,” Adelaide added, “Germain’s family witnessed today’s events. While they didn’t catch much, if anyone tries to use this to get close to you or has ulterior motives… I’ll leave it unsaid. Keep your guard up.
“Thank you for the warning. Farewell,” Christine said with a bow and left.
Christine stepped outside and felt there was a hidden meaning in Luna Adelaide’s words. What did she really mean?
Since Germain and the others hadn’t figured anything out, they were just here for the drama. But why come to her door then?
Still, she stored the comment in her memory. Some things, whether expected or not, need precaution.
As soon as Christine departed, Paisley entered.
Adelaide, massaging her temples, asked, “Weren’t you showing Maya around the garden?”
“I didn’t feel like dealing with her. I left Ivy and a few maids with her. She’s not going anywhere,” Paisley replied, sitting down.
“What’s that madwoman doing here?” she asked Adelaide.
Adelaide, ensuring no one was around, recounted Gloria’s antics.
Paisley was furious. “She’s pregnant with Ulrik’s child and still trying to cling to Eugene? How shameless! Thankfully, Christine is reasonable. Otherwise, Eugene might’ve felt obligated to take her in.”
“Enough. Eugene now knows the truth and will distance himself from her,” Adelaide said.
“Never seen such a shameless person,” Paisley huffed.
“There’s another shameless one waiting outside. I don’t even want to see her.”
Adelaide knew she meant Sadi. “That’s her choice. Don’t let it bother you. Let’s focus on our own lives.”
“Sadi isn’t stupid. Can’t she see through Germain’s intentions?” Paisley remarked.
“Perhaps she can, which is why she’s eager to mate with him, Adelaide hinted.
Paisley’s eyes widened. “Really?”
