Charlotte quickly composed herself and rushed beside Alpha Nick. “Nick, I was merely welcoming Sheila and thanking her for making it in time, but she brushed past me, using so much speed that she almost crashed into the door when Bree vehemently pulled her back,” Charlotte narrated without catching a breath.

Sheila was shocked by the way Charlotte could lie so well without feeling guilty about it. Alpha Nick was a bit skeptical, since he saw the way Sheila was slammed against the wall.

Also, Bree’s expression betrayed her. The latter looked guilty. “Is that so?” Alpha Nick asked, his unwavering gaze on Sheila, making Charlotte grit her teeth in anger.

“Nick, how could you keep me out of a family matter?” Bree complained. How could an outsider like Sheila be allowed to see their mother and not her?

Bree was upset, but Charlotte was burning with rage. “She’s right, Nick, we should all be by ma’am’s side.”

“That is what I wanted, but you know her condition will only worsen with that option. If she wants to see Sheila, let it be so. After all, we only
