Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 402

Chapter 402 A Man of His Word

Michael’s POV:

I knew Caden Holbrook well–he was a man of his word and never made light of his words.

If he denied being responsible, then there was no question that he was telling the truth.

That meant someone else had to be pulling the strings from the shadows.

But who?

Was it an enemy of the Wild Pack, or had Wendy provoked the wrong person?

For now, I couldn’t piece it together.

“I’ve said all I need to. I have a meeting shortly–do you have anything else?” Caden spoke calmly, making it clear he was done with the conversation.

I kept a serious expression and replied, “Apologies for the interruption.”

Back at the Wild Pack, the moment I stepped into the study, Wendy was right behind me.

“Michael, did you go see Caden? Why didn’t you take me with you? What did he say?” she asked urgently, gripping my arm in frustration.

“Wendy, have you made any enemies?” I asked, deep in thought.

She frowned in confusion. “Huh?”

“Caden denied having anything to do with leaking what happened that night,” I said in a low voice.

Her face lit up instantly. “Really? So that means he still cares about me, maybe even likes me a little, right?”

I was at a loss for words–Wendy was completely infatuated with Caden.

“Wendy, snap out of it! If he had even the slightest feelings for you, he wouldn’t have set you up with that gigolo werewolf,” I said sharply, rising to my feet. “What you should be focusing on now is whether you’ve crossed someone–and if they’re the one who exposed that night’s events online!”

“I haven’t!” Wendy shook her head, looking completely bewildered. “Who would I have offended? The worst it could be is someone envious of me.”
