Chapter 155: The Truth Behind the DNA Tests

(God’s POV)

At the Crimson Rose Tavern, Marcus Blackwood sat across from Samuel Whitmore and Sandy Parker in the private dining room. The crystal chandelier cast warm light over the mahogany table laden with exquisite

dishes.

Sandy leaned forward with exaggerated charm, batting her eyelashes at Marcus. “Alpha Marcus, you’re so handsome tonight. That black suit makes you look incredibly powerful.”

Server Jake refilled their wine glasses, trying to hide his disgust at Sandy’s shameless flattery. The other servers exchanged knowing glances as they witnessed her inappropriate behavior.

“The moonlight wine pairs perfectly with your golden eyes,” Sandy continued breathlessly. “Don’t you think we make a beautiful couple?”

Samuel’s jaw tightened as he watched his supposed daughter’s display. “Sandy, young she–wolves should be

more reserved.”

Sandy giggled and touched her hair coquettishly. “But Father, I’m just being friendly. Isn’t my expression

adorable?”

Samuel could barely hide his revulsion. This crude behavior couldn’t possibly come from his and Dorothea’s bloodline. The doubt that had been gnawing at him grew stronger.

Marcus cut his venison with precise movements, his face expressionless. “Miss Parker, perhaps you should

focus on your meal.”

When Marcus mentioned establishing a branch company in Riverside City to be closer to his mate, Sandy’s

expression soured instantly.

“Your Luna wants to sever your mate bond anyway,” she said with bitter sarcasm. “She only cares about

money, not love.”

Samuel’s fork clattered against his plate. The rudeness was beyond acceptable limits.

Sandy pressed on recklessly. “You should repay my life–saving grace by marking me instead. I’d be a much

better Luna than that cold woman.”

Marcus’s golden eyes turned ice–cold. “You’re bringing your nightclub working habits into the Whitmore

family.”

The insult hit its mark. Sandy’s face flushed red with humiliation and rage.

Samuel stood abruptly, his Alpha authority filling the room. “Benjamin Hayes, take Sandy home immediately.”
