Chapter 57: Confrontation at the Consortium

(Elena’s POV)

Jennifer Walsh didn’t care and shouted, “I just said you wanted to hook up with Alpha Marcus, so what? Miss Rivers is right, there are always she–wolves like you who shamelessly stick themselves on-”

Before she could finish her words, I retaliated with a slap across her face. The sound echoed through the Grand Atrium like a gunshot.

Jennifer Walsh stumbled backward, her hand flying to her reddened cheek. Other Blackwood Consortium employees were attracted by the commotion, gathering around us in a growing circle.

I pulled out my phone with deliberate calm. Then I’ll call Marcus Blackwood myself.”

The front desk staff’s eyes widened in surprise. They wandered if I genuinely knew Marcus Blackwood after all.

Jennifer Walsh, however, remained confident. She believed I was bluffing since she had never seen me before.

“Go ahead and call,” she sneered. “Let’s see if Alpha Marcus even knows who you are.”

I dialed Marcus’s number, but the call went unanswered. The phone rang endlessly before going to voicemail.

I tried again, but this time I was met with busy signals. My face darkened as I realized Marcus was playing a deliberate game with me.

She turned to the security guards triumphantly. “Take her away! She’s clearly lying about everything!”
