“Ms. Jackson, you know not the power of hackers. Shadow Seeker, she is akin to a god in the realm of hackers. One could even deem her all-knowing. If she so desires, she can effortlessly infiltrate a company, a corporation, or even an entire nation in mere minutes! I do not exaggerate!” Fabian raved about Shadow Seeker, his gaze fanatical as if he personally witnessed her exploits.
Nelly was rendered speechless, unsure of how to respond. It should have pleased her that someone had such unwavering faith in her abilities and stood up for her. With a polite smile, she simply kept silent while gazing at Fabian.
“Never mind. You shall never comprehend!” Fabian sighed dejectedly; his words left Nelly speechless.
“What does she not comprehend?” Unexpectedly, Alpha Kilian’s voice pierced the air from behind them, startling Fabian. Instinctively, he sought refuge behind Nelly.
“M-Alpha Morris, when did you arrive?” Fabian stammered upon seeing his reaction, causing Alpha Kilian to furrow his brows.
“What troubles you? Am I unwelcome here?” “N-No, that’s not what I…”
“What are you concealing?”
“N-Nothing!” Fabian hastily glanced at Nelly, silently pleading for her not to disclose anything. Alpha Kilian narrowed his eyes. “Nothing?” His voice grew hoarse as he pressed the matter.
Alpha Kilian knew Fabian’s every nuance. From the way Fabian behaved, Alpha Kilian harbored no doubt that something was hidden from him.
Observing Alpha Kilian approaching Fabian, Nelly spoke up. “It was me. I inquired about how he injured his arm.”
Alpha Kilian halted in his tracks. It was evident that Nelly was shielding Fabian. Rolling his eyes, he quickly deduced the situation.
Nelly swiftly changed the subject, informing him, “Grandpa and Alpha Morris are present. They await inside.”
Alpha Kilian glanced at the ward’s door. “Alpha Morris appears furious,” Nelly cautioned.
A solemn expression washed over Alpha Kilian’s handsome face. “I am aware. I anticipated as much.” With that, he pushed open the door and entered the ward.
At the sight of Alpha Kilian entering, Fabian breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank you for saving my life, Ms. Jackson,” Fabian whispered.
“You are most welcome.”
Nelly followed Alpha Kilian into the ward, with Fabian trailing along. Inside, Donna managed to reassure the two elders and provide comfort.
However, upon Alpha Kilian’s arrival, Alpha King Larry couldn’t contain his wrath and started berating his grandson.
“Where have you been?”
Before Alpha Kilian could respond, Alpha King Larry continued, “Why did you not inform me when such a significant event occurred? Do you still consider me your grandfather?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Alpha Kilian remained silent.
“I tell you, this is far from over! You are the one who provoked that woman. Tell me, will you handle her yourself, or shall I?”
Donna’s heart ached witnessing the scene before her. “Great-grandpa, you promised not to blame Daddy!”
Alpha King Larry’s anger quickly subsided. “I-I am not blaming him. I am merely stating the truth!” “Then you should not scold Daddy!”
“Very well, very well, I shall not scold him!”
Alpha King Larry could find no further words for Alpha Kilian. Ultimately, all he could do was glare at him, lips pursed into a thin line.
Just then, Alpha Kilian broke the silence. “Do not fret, Grandpa. I shall resolve this!” “You have said it yourself! If you cannot, do not blame me if I take matters into my own hands!” Alpha King Larry huffed.
Alpha Kilian turned to look at Donna. “I am capable. Them laying a hand on Donna was the final straw. Fear not, I shall handle it!”
Alpha King Larry merely snorted, dropping the topic. Alpha Wade remained silent, seated by the side.
Donna, lying on the bed, gazed at Alpha Kilian with sparkling eyes. Daddy is the best!
Noticing Donna’s affectionate gaze, Alpha Kilian smiled and approached her bedside. He retrieved the breakfast he had purchased for the girl.
“Hungry? I went out early to fetch the breakfast you longed for!”
At the sight of the spread, Donna yearned to throw herself into Alpha Kilian’s embrace. Yet, with countless eyes upon her, she restrained herself. “Thank you, Daddy!”
Alpha Kilian laid out the various dishes, each appearing delectable, in front of Donna. “You are the best, Daddy!” Donna whispered into Alpha Kilian’s ear. “Shall I feed you?”
“Before everyone? No, thank you. Else they will label me a spoiled child,” Donna mumbled.
Observing Donna’s small face and shimmering eyes brimming with vitality, Alpha Kilian chuckled and patted her head.
He then turned to look at Nelly. “Let us dine together!”
