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.”

Professor Theodore Ashworth interjected firmly. “It’s good they severed the bond. That Alpha clearly wasn’t worthy of Elena.”

Dr. Hugo Ashworth walked to his car and drove it over to where I stood. Feeling obligated by his grandfather’s suggestion, I reluctantly sat in the passenger seat.

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

“I’m just reminding you,” he replied curtly.

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.
