Chapter 30: Public Confrontation

(Elena’s POV)

William Cross’s face turned ugly as he stepped closer to me. “Elena, you don’t want your reputation, but the institute still needs its reputation!”

I fired back with cold sarcasm. “Senior William, do you think the Northern Territory Central Healing Institute is your personal property to stage such a drama?”

Before Cross could respond, Heidi Cross pointed at me angrily. Her face was twisted with rage.

“You little she–wolf!” she screamed. “How dare you seduce my mate!”

She waved her finger accusingly. “Your mated status on the records is fake! No one has ever seen your mate!”

The surrounding pack healers began whispering among themselves. They knew I was mated but had never

met Marcus.

“William admitted it himself,” Heidi continued triumphantly. “Your so–called mate is actually him!”

The whispers grew louder. Some healers nodded, believing her accusations made sense.

I watched Sophia from the corner of my eye. She stood with barely concealed satisfaction, anticipating my

scandal would stick.

I defended myself calmly. “I don’t even have Senior William’s private phone number or personal contact.”

My voice remained steady despite the hostile crowd. “How could an affair be conducted using only institute

communications?”

Sophia tried to cover quickly. “Perhaps Elena deleted the contacts to hide evidence.”
