Olivia was about to slip away through a side door when Elder Richard’s words reached her ears. She stopped abruptly, immediately understanding his intentions.
He feared Ethan would ignore his objections and publicly acknowledge Victoria and Emma anyway. By pushing Olivia forward first, he had preempted his son’s defiance.
A cold sneer curled Olivia’s lips. She had no intention of participating in this charade, but as
she turned to leave, members of the Silvercrest Security Detail blocked her path.
“Luna Winters, you can’t leave yet, please!” one of them said firmly.
With Matriarch Evelyn absent and no allies among the Stone family, Olivia had no choice but to return, her emerald eyes flashing with defiance.
Victoria Frost watched Olivia walk back, Elder Richard’s words still ringing in her ears. She
nearly ground her teeth to dust with rage.
That damned old wolf! Her body trembled uncontrollably with emotional turmoil, her lowered
eyelids barely concealing the malice in her eyes.
If Ethan weren’t present, she would have rushed at Olivia and slapped her hard across the
face. This b***h! Victoria hadn’t expected Olivia to be so calculating, waiting until today to expose Emma’s true parentage in front of Ethan and Elder Richard.
All her painstaking planning had ultimately benefited Olivia. How could she not hate her?
“Ethan…” Victoria quickly suppressed the malice in her heart. She absolutely couldn’t let Ethan publicly acknowledge Olivia. Today’s ceremony belonged to her and Ethan.
If Ethan appeared with Olivia in front of everyone, she would become a laughingstock. She
wouldn’t allow it.
Victoria raised her head, tears welling up in her eyes. She stumbled toward Ethan and threw
herself into his arms, looking up at him pitifully.
“Ethan, five years ago, we were forced to separate because of that one night of accidental mating between you and Olivia,” she whimpered. “We missed each other for five years. I waited for you for five years, and finally, today has arrived.”

Her voice broke perfectly as she continued, “If you publicly acknowledge Olivia today… what about me and Emma? You promised me that I would be your only Luna…”
Ethan was her source of confidence. She possessed not only his love and the kindness she
had shown him, but also his guilt toward her.
And Olivia? What did she have? Even the only daughter she had that could tie her to Ethan
was already buried underground. What could she use to compete?
Victoria leaned against Ethan, glancing at Olivia with a look of provocation. She was certain
that Ethan would defy his father for her and wouldn’t fulfill Olivia’s wish.
But Victoria never imagined that Ethan not only didn’t comply with her wishes but also pulled
her away from his embrace. He strode toward Olivia, who was a few steps away, and grabbed
her wrist firmly.
“Ethan…” Victoria’s pupils constricted sharply. She couldn’t believe her eyes.
Ethan’s action clearly indicated his intention to appear in front of the media with his father
