Chapter 31
The man was clearly ambitious, easily controlled by those above him.
Those who worked for him, on the other hand, were doomed to suffer under his management.
And I belonged to the Latter group.
Things were really taking a turn for the worse.
Just then, I noticed that there was a werewolf sitting next to Adam.
He was well-dressed, had blond hair, dark green eyes, and a stunningly handsome face.
The werewolf was none other than Caleb.
My blood ran cold and I froze on the spot.
Why the hell was Caleb here? Wasn’t he the Alpha of the Thorn Edge Pack? Why on earth would he come to this poor rural area? Was he mad or what?

I was racking my brains, trying to look for a way to break the ice when Caleb suddenly stood up and started walking over slowly.

Wright misunderstood me once, but that’s all in the past.
I know that he is a sensible person who wouldn’t dwell on such a small thing.
”
Caleb narrowed his eyes at me with a trace of intrigue, but he didn’t deny it.
After an awkward pause, Adam seemed to understand something and suddenly burst into laughter.
“Ha-ha! I know he has had his fair share of flings, but I never thought you’d run into your ex here! What a coincidence!”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Caleb nodded.
“You’re right.
It really is a coincidence.
”
His eyes never left me as he spoke, and it made me feel very uncomfortable.
As far as I was concerned, Caleb was nothing but a ticking time bomb.
And I just knew that Caleb would compromise my investigation.
My heart tightened in my chest.
