Chapter 162: Family Dinner and Unexpected Revelations
(Third person’s POV)
At the Moonrise Grand Restaurant, the private dining room buzzed with warm conversation. Olivia found herself surrounded by Adrian Sinclair’s family his aunt Emma Turner, her daughter Sophie, Emma’s husband, and Adrian’s elderly grandparents from the Sinclair pack.
The grandmother’s eyes sparkled with delight as she leaned forward. “So you’re single, dear?” she asked Olivia with obvious hope.
“Yes, I am,” Olivia replied graciously, though she felt a flutter of discomfort at the woman’s obvious matchmaking intentions.
The grandfather enthusiastically pushed the menu toward her. “Please, order whatever you like! Don’t be shy
with us.”
Olivia accepted the menu with a warm smile. “Thank you so much for your kindness.”
She carefully selected several light dishes suitable for both elderly wolves and children. The grandfather beamed at her thoughtful choices, looking at her as if she were already his grandson’s potential mate.
“Such consideration,” the grandmother whispered to Emma. “She would make a wonderful addition to our
pack.”
Emma nodded eagerly, her eyes bright with matchmaking schemes. Sophie sat quietly beside her mother, occasionally touching the beautiful hair clip Olivia had given her.
Throughout the dinner, Emma’s husband remained notably quiet except for his initial words of gratitude. He observed the family’s obvious intentions with growing concern.
Unbeknownst to the others, he recognized Olivia as Connor Rivers‘ former fiancée. He had attended their engagement ceremony the previous year while Emma was away on business in Blackmoor Territory.
His mind raced as he watched Emma’s enthusiasm for pairing Adrian with Olivia. This could become a dangerous situation if the truth came out later.
He needed to inform Emma about Olivia’s relationship with Connor Rivers after the meal. The Rivers pack was not to be trifled with, especially regarding their Alpha’s personal matters.
“Adrian, tell us about your recent cases,” the grandmother encouraged, clearly hoping to showcase her grandson’s professional success.
Adrian adjusted his gold–rimmed glasses with a gentle smile. “We’ve been handling some challenging corporate disputes lately.”
“Olivia’s firm has been dealing with similar cases,” Emma interjected meaningfully. “You two have so much in common professionally.”
Olivia and Adrian exchanged amused glances at the obvious setup. “We’ve discussed establishing Moonstone Legal Partners,” Olivia said diplomatically.
“That sounds like a perfect partnership,” the grandfather declared with satisfaction.

Chapter 162 Family Dinne
The conversation flowed pleasantly as they discussed legal matters and potential business collaborations Adrian’s professional competence impressed Olivia,
while his family’s warmth reminded her of simpler times
After the meal, as the group exited the private dining room, Emma gave Adrian meaningful looks. “Adrian why don’t you drive Olivia home?” she suggested with barely concealed hope.
“Thank you, but I drove myself,” Olivia politely declined. “I didn’t drink during dinner, so I’m perfectly fine to
drive.”
Adrian nodded understandingly. “Of course. Safety first.”
As they took the elevator to the first floor, the doors opened to reveal an unexpected sight. Ethan Quinn and Lily were embracing intimately in the hallway.
The couple immediately separated upon seeing the group. Lily’s face turned bright red as she stammered,
O–Olivia!”
Olivia’s expression became serious as she took in the scene. Her amber eyes narrowed with concern and
surprise.
“Lily,” she said firmly, stepping forward. “We need to talk.”
She turned to Adrian and his family with an apologetic smile. “Please go ahead. I need to speak with my friend privately.”
The elderly grandmother cheerfully waved goodbye. “Don’t forget to visit our pack territory, dear!” Little Sophie sweetly called out, “Goodbye, Miss Winters! Thank you for the beautiful hair clip!” Adrian hesitated for a moment, his eyes showing concern. “Are you sure you’ll be alright?”
“I’ll be fine,” Olivia assured him. “Thank you for a lovely evening.”
Once the family departed, Olivia turned back to the couple with crossed arms. Her amber eyes scrutinized them both with growing sternness.
“Well?” she demanded, her voice carrying an edge of authority. “What exactly is going on here?”
Lily struggled to find words, her face still flushed with embarrassment. “Olivia, I can explain…”
“Then explain,” Olivia said curtly, her gaze shifting between them.
Ethan Quinn shifted uncomfortably under her stern look. The beta werewolf had never seen this side of Olivia
-before.
“Perhaps we should move somewhere more private,” he suggested, gesturing toward the restaurant’s upper floors. “I had reserved a private room upstairs for dinner with Lily.”
They proceeded to the room, which turned out to be a romantic couple’s suite. Rose petals were scattered across the table, candles flickered softly, and the entire atmosphere screamed intimate dinner.
Olivia’s mood darkened further as she took in the romantic setup. She sat down heavily, her expression thunderous.
“When did this start?” she demanded, her voice cold with betrayal.
Her feelings were complex and painful. She had always viewed Ethan Quinn as a close friend figure, almost like family. Watching him pursue her best friend felt like watching her own family being disrupted.
