Chapter 759 Discrimination

Hayley’s POV:

The party was packed. With so many people milling about, no one really noticed our arrival.

The Cyclone Pack had always looked down on outsiders, and that attitude hadn’t changed. Especially toward a low–tier Omega from another region like me.

But when Truman and Melody walked in, a turmoil had taken place.

“Mr. White has graced us with his presence! Looks like this year’s Rock Betting Auction just leveled up,” someone exclaimed, all smiles and flattery. “Didn’t expect you and Ms. Melody to still be going strong- what a lovely couple.”

Truman’s expression didn’t change. His lips curled into a polite, distant smile. “Melody is my most capable assistant. Nothing more. I hope no one gets the wrong idea and stops her from finding her true mate.”

“Oh–got it, of course! Our mistake. Come on, Mr. White, let’s talk inside!”

The man, trying to appear friendly, wrapped an arm around Truman’s shoulder and quickly led him aside, chatting away.

Melody followed obediently without a hint of discontent.

I couldn’t help but shake my head. Poor woman. Her mind had been completely bent to his will.

Truman may be an Alpha, but if he can’t even acknowledge you publicly, there’s no way he’s ever going to make you his Luna. Why cling to him like that? Walk away while you still can.

“Ms. Sander, are you alright?” Humbert asked, clearly puzzled.

I took a deep breath, but Hera was already irritated by the scent she didn’t like. I couldn’t calm her down in time, so before I knew it, I turned and smacked Humbert lightly on the forehead. “I’m Carson. Carson! Why could you be such a fool?”

Humbert rubbed his head, looking completely lost. “Right, Carson. Got it. Ms. S… Carson!”

“Sorry, that came out a little strong,” I muttered, letting out a sigh.

Then I steered us toward the least crowded corner. “Come on, let’s get some fresh air over there.

The last thing I wanted was to run into Truman again.

Even in the corner, a few small groups/gathered, chatting quietly. I didn’t know any of them. So I leaned against a stone pillar with a glass of wine, watching the crowd closely.

That’s when a group of middle–aged women wandered my way, chatting animatedly.

“This year’s event is definitely bigger than last year’s. There are so many people, one hall can’t even hold them all.”

“It’s those outsiders–Winterbite Pack sent people, and even the biggest jewelry firms from out of state are here. The hotels are all booked solid!”

“Looks like they come prepared. Probably hoping to take the best raw stones for themselves,

“As if! Our pack is full of experts. Even our kids know more about rock betting than those outsiders. Thin they can beat us at our own game? Keep dreaming”

“And even though we’re all wolfkind, their appearances are so different from us. I just don’t like them.

“They’re all the same, those outsider werewolves–nothing but brutes fighting over territory. When it comes to real rock–betting skills, they can’t hold a candle to us!”

The women snickered and chattered among themselves, every word soaked in disdain for wolves like me outsiders they didn’t even try to hide their contempt for. Now and then, they burst into laughter, shrill and irritating.

Their laughter grated on my nerves. I scoffed sharply, unable to hold back the sarcasm.

One of them wrinkled her nose and turned to me with a look of pure annoyance. “Who are you supposed to be?”

“We’re having our own conversation–mind your own business,” another woman snapped. She was a high- ranking Omega and made sure I knew she thought she was above me.

I stepped forward, my face calm but cold. “Wolf blood runs in all of us. Who exactly do you think is beneath you?”

The woman’s expression darkened.
