Rejected by the Beta, Claimed by the Alpha

Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Chapter 165

It was the day of the great Alpha meeting, a day that would decide the fate of many.

Derrick was adjusting his blazer, preparing to step out, when his phone rang. He glanced at the screen, and a slight look of surprise crossed his face.

Alpha Darwin.

His expression shifted into irritation. *Why is he calling me now?* He sighed before picking up the call, forcing his voice to remain calm.

"Good morning, Alpha Darwin."

"Good morning, Derrick..." Alpha Darwin’s voice carried an urgency that Derrick did not appreciate.

"I assume you’re preparing for the meeting. I need to ask you something important."

Derrick clenched his jaw, his irritation growing. *What does he want now? *He forced himself to remain composed.

"Go ahead. I’m listening."

"Do you know what the meeting is about? Or do you have anything to do with calling such an urgent gathering?"

Derrick was silent for a moment, carefully choosing his words. He wasn’t about to reveal anything.

"I don’t think anyone should be in a hurry to know the agenda," he finally said, his voice turning cold.

"Once we’re there, all answers will come to light."

Alpha Darwin exhaled deeply. There was a pause before he spoke again, this time in a lower, warning tone.

"I suppose I have my answer then. Derrick, listen to me carefully... Be very cautious. Things do not always unfold the way we plan. Be warned."

Before Derrick could respond, the call ended.

Derrick gripped his phone tightly, his expression darkening. "Who does he think he is?" he muttered under his breath.

He let out a slow exhale, forcing himself to remain calm.

* I’ve been too merciful with him. After today’s meeting, everyone will know their place.* Derrick thought to himself angrily.

He shrugged on his blazer and stepped out of his room. As he entered the living room, he found Mona waiting for him.

He quickly composed his face, masking his frustration from the earlier call.

Mona greeted him with a bright smile. "Good morning, my Alpha King."

Derrick chuckled lightly, shaking his head. "Mona, let’s wait until everything is confirmed. There are still many obstacles in our way, and you know too well that Theo won’t sit still."
