Chapter 178
“Elora, go to your room and take a rest now.” Georgiana told her daughter.
“Yes, Mom. You also should go to a guest room and take some rest.” Elora said with a smile.
“Yeah.” Georgiana grinned at her.
Elora happily went upstairs. In the meantime, Goergiana turned her attention to Ryan. It appeared that Beta Max was talking about something that had to do with his pack.
Georgiana moved closer to the couch as she could hear the conversation about what they were discussing.
“I am aware that it is your responsibility to be here in this house with your family at this time. But what about our pack? You could not roam around like before because, at that time, everyone had a specific duty that you settled on. But with passing time, our pack broadened, and we can’t trust anyone right now. At the very least, not that Alpha Charles.” Beta Max said. to Ryan.
“Tell others to keep an eye on him. I won’t go back so soon. I want to stay here for quite some time.”
“But Ryan, what if-”
“Not but, and not even if. If I indicate that I will remain here, there should be no opposition to my decision.” Ryan remarked as he took another puff on his cigarette.
“Alright, I get it. I am going to give Colin a call right now. Let me convey to him your ideas on the matter.” After speaking, Beta Max stood up. He left for his room while Georgiana came to a stop beside Ryan.
She smiled at him as she bowed to him in respect.
“Alpha”
Ryan did not even bother to look in her direction. His attention was totally focused on the entrance. She gave the door a quick check before asking,
“Alpha, is someone coming? Are you waiting for someone?”
A small frown appeared on Ryan’s face, and he then responded,
“Hmm. The disaster of my enemies.”
Her eyes widened as she stepped back.
“Disaster?”
He turned to her and cocked an eyebrow in her direction. “A powerful witch like you has no reason to be afraid in this manner. I thought you were stronger.”
“A–Alpha, I’m sorry for the way I reacted to it; I didn’t mean to. The only thing that makes me nervous is any kind of danger that will affect you.”
“Danger? Me? Which dimension are you residing in?”
“I have something important to discuss with you, Alpha. I was unable to get in touch with you, but now that I have the opportunity, I want to inform you of a few things.”
Ryan kept smoking and gave her a nod of his head.
“Alpha, I can smell danger.”
The corner of Ryan’s left lip turned upward. “Really?”
“Y–Yeah, Alpha.”
She found herself choking in her breath at the sound of his chuckle.
“Oh, Georgiana. I am so excited then.”
“Alpha, be careful.”
“Leave it. Why did you choose to save Ethan?” Ryan’s question was completely out of the blue.
When he asked her the question, she was taken aback. She had a fixed gaze on him. ‘Me? I saved Ethan? He thinks I saved that man? That means he didn’t save his brother? Then who did?‘ She contemplated, and then she grew perplexed.
“Cat caught your tongue?“”
“No, Alpha. I just-”
“Did I tell your daughter to reject him so that you could save him?”
“No, Alpha. Your father contacted me, so I had to come.”
“But did you get my permission to come here and save his son? If I wanted that, I would have called you, wouldn’t I? Or have you started to think that he is better than me for your daughter?”
“No, no, Alpha. Please forgive this naive witch.” Georgiana said and kneeled in front of him. “This is my last warning. Never
etry a trick on me. Otherwise, I won’t waste much time to clench your heart out of your chest.” He cautioned her in such a collected manner, as if he had only stated a few straightforward words.
Goergiana did not know what she would reply to. She could not tell Ryan that she eventually wanted to kill Ethan. But in every way, he would scold her.
She cursed Ethan in her mind. She thought that because of him, all of this was happening.
‘I have to wait for some time. I can’t kill him right now. Alpha will start to doubt me if I do. anything now.‘
Thinking that, she began to prepare new plans in her mind while asking forgiveness to Ryan.
The next day, when Allison woke up, she proceeded straight to Ethan’s room. She saw Ella was already there.
She stood next to Ella, who was sitting on the stool that was placed close to the bed.
“Aunt”
Ella turned to Allison and smiled at her.
“I was talking with my son. I am telling him that he will have to wake up soon. Linus said he could hear us.”
Allison put her hand on Ella’s shoulder and smiled at her lightly. “Yes, Aunt. He can. He will wake soon.”
She gazed at Ethan. He looked like he was just sleeping on the bed. But in reality, he was in a
coma.
Allison stayed in the room the whole day. Everyone came to check on Ethan, with the exception of Elora and Ryan. Everyone was concerned about him.
Allison got mad at Ryan. She believed that he should at least stay closer to his parents since they were in a crucial situation.
‘When is that guy going to get some sense? He is doing nothing more than driving a wedge between himself and his family. He did not care about anyone, not even his own brother. After that, he had the audacity to threaten me by saying that he would hurt my father. How am I supposed to just be quiet without actually doing nothing? What actions should I take given the current circumstances?‘
So many different things were going through her head at once. She was trapped and had nowhere to escape. She wanted to leave after calling off the wedding with Ethan. But it was the time when the Iversen family needed to be united. How could she leave the family when Alpha Neil and Luna Ella always loved her like their own daughter? 1
Another day passed without Ethan coming back into consciousness.
It was well past midnight when the only person in Ethan’s room was a nurse.
The door of the room opened, and a woman entered the room and saw the nurse.
The nurse stood and looked at her.
“I want to talk to him privately. Can you please wait outside?”
“But Doctor Linus told me that I had to remain here.”
“You can contact Linus about it. I believe he won’t say no.”
The nurse was very loyal. She did not believe her and called Linus.
When Linus permitted her to allow the woman to stay with Ethan alone, the nurse left.
The woman walked up to the bed and sat down on the stool that was there.
She lowered her head and rested her palm on Ethan’s chest before closing her eyes. The glow began to shine as soon as she opened them. It was a pair of emerald eyes that were gleaming.
“I lied to you. I lied that I regretted meeting you. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
The truth is, I wish we could have met another time in another place. I wish we could get some time to get to know each other well. I wish I could be your first mate. I wish we could get a chance to be together.
I wish I didn’t reject you, Ethan.”
