Chapter 110: Unexpected Encounters

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

I don’t know which Alpha got lucky, but why did they sever their matet filled with genuine surprise.

Joyce Harrison asked, her voice.

She quickly accepted my situation, studying my face with maternal concern. “You’re so beautiful, radiant, fair–skinned, and well–behaved. You must be popular among the pack. You’ll never lack suitors.”

After I buckled my seatbelt, he warned me sternly. “Don’t touch anything in my car.”

I was taken aback by his bluntness. I raised my hands defensively. “I haven’t touched anything

After a moment of uncomfortable silence, I tried to initiate conversation. “I hadn’t realized you were Professor Theodore Ashworth’s grandson.”

He simply hummed in response, his eyes fixed on the road ahead.
