Chapter 9
Bella’s father, Beta Craig Turner, suddenly let go of her hand, and both of them turned their heads to see Alpha Carl Trevor standing behind them, seemingly appearing out of thin air Alpha Carl seemed surprised to see Beta Craig and exclaimed, “Beta Turner? Beta Craig awkwardly laughed and replied, “Alpha Trevor Instantly, Alpha Carl forced a smile and questioned, “Why was the Beta holding my assistant’s hand? Are you harassing her? Beta Craig looked bewildered, glancing between Alpha Carl and Bella “Bella, are you woforg for Alpha Trevor?” he asked.
Bella couldn’t help but think, “Assistant? Is that how Alpha Carl sees me? Without showing any respect towards Beta Craig, Alpha Carl pulled Bella towards him and remarked, “Beta Craig, my assistant could potentially become your daughter. Besides, she’s not exceptionally attractive. Please make the right choice and avoid getting involved in scandals.”
It dawned on Bella that Alpha Carl Trevor had misunderstood her relationship with Beta Craig. Seeing Alpha Carl’s protective gaze, Beta Craig didn’t seem angry at all; instead, he laughed. Alpha Carl was not only incredibly handsome but also the Alpha of the Trevor Pack. Bella was sure that her father was hoping that she might date Alpha Trevor, that’s why he didn’t mention their relationship. He looked at Alpha Carl with a meaningful smile and said, “Alpha Trevor, I must leave now as there are matters to attend to. Let’s arrange to meet again next time!”
Alpha Carl’s expression darkened as Beta Craig departed. He let go of Bella’s hand in disgust and scolded, “Are you a fool? Do you think it’s appropriate for people to see you being held by an older man in public?”
“No, Alpha Trevor!” Bella responded.
“No? You know that too, don’t you? Bella, have you lost your mind when it comes to men? Are you so desperate that you don’t care? To the point of hooking up with older men?” Alpha Carl’s words were filled with venom. Bella smiled bitterly and replied, “Alpha Trevor, it’s not what you think.”
“It better not be what I think. As my assistant, you have to maintain a good reputation and keep yourself clean. Otherwise, I’ll fire you!” Alpha Trevor warned Bella.
“I understand. There won’t be a next time!” Bella responded firmly.
Alpha Carl Trevor seemed much more satisfied when he saw how submissive Bella was. “You don’t have to attend the pack gathering tonight. Go back and rest early. I have something for you to do tomorrow. By the way, make an appointment with Alice.”
“Yes, Alpha Carl!” Bella replied. It was unexpectedly good news for her that Alpha Carl showed such compassion and allowed her to rest. She assisted Alpha Carl in making an appointment with Alice before returning home.
Since her uncle had been weak and sickly, Bella decided to stop by the market on her way home. She bought some fresh meat and vegetables, planning to prepare something nourishing for her uncle.

Chapter 9
As she walked out of the market, her hands full of groceries, she crossed the road and suddenly, a car came speeding out of nowhere. Before she could react, she was knocked to the ground. The pain shot through her palms and legs as they scraped against the rough surface. She tried to stand up, but the pain was
unbearable.
Suddenly, the car door opened, and the driver stepped out. ‘Are you alright?” he asked, concern evident in
his voice.
“I can’t…” she managed to say, her voice trailing off.
The driver looked at her in surprise. “Ma’am!”
“What ma’am? Alpha Xavier has long abandoned this woman. What do you think you’re doing?” a rude and arrogant voice interrupted.
Mrs. Elinor, sitting in the back seat of the car, strode over with a haughty expression on her face. She showed no sympathy as she sneered at Bella. “Bella, did you do this on purpose? Did you fail to win over Alpha Xavier, and now you’re trying to get his attention in this pathetic way? Your tactics are too low–level.”
Bella seethed with anger. “Mrs. Elinor, you’re quite skilled at talking nonsense, aren’t you?”
“Talking nonsense? Didn’t you use these kinds of tactics to seduce Alpha Xavier in the beginning? Now that you’ve heard he’s going to be engaged to Samantha, you can’t stand it anymore, can you? Are you planning to do something again?” Elinor’s disdainful gaze bore into Bella.
Bella had endured that look from Elinor countless times during her three years of marriage to Alpha Xavier. Back then, she was her daughter–in–law, and she couldn’t talk back to her. But now, after their divorce, they were nothing more than strangers. There was no reason for Bella to tolerate Elinor’s unreasonable behavior. Yes, she was the Alpha’s mother, but Bella wasn’t an Omega either! She had royal bloodline, and she was capable of going into battle against the Alpha King himself for the crown! She was skilled, and her wolf wasn’t weak. She had to hide the true her because they were not living among their kind, but they were living peacefully with humans. But they had their own lands, training spots, and warriors.

Her words hit Elinor hard, and unable to bear it, she slapped Bella across the face. Bella struggled to stand up, but the force of the slap sent her tumbling back to the ground.
The bystanders, unable to witness Elinor bullying Bella any longer, began to criticize her. “How can she be so arrogant after hitting someone? We should call the police!”
As the crowd voiced their disapproval, Elinor’s arrogance wavered, and she quickly retreated to her car, leaving Bella lying on the ground, bruised and battered.

“It better not be what I think. As my assistant, you have to maintain a good reputation and keep yourself clean. Otherwise, I’ll fire you!” Alpha Trevor warned Bella.
“I understand. There won’t be a next time!” Bella responded firmly.
Alpha Carl Trevor seemed much more satisfied when he saw how submissive Bella was. “You don’t have to attend the pack gathering tonight. Go back and rest early. I have something for you to do tomorrow. By the way, make an appointment with Alice.”
“Yes, Alpha Carl!” Bella replied. It was unexpectedly good news for her that Alpha Carl showed such compassion and allowed her to rest. She assisted Alpha Carl in making an appointment with Alice before returning home.
Since her uncle had been weak and sickly, Bella decided to stop by the market on her way home. She bought some fresh meat and vegetables, planning to prepare something nourishing for her uncle.

Chapter 9
As she walked out of the market, her hands full of groceries, she crossed the road and suddenly, a car came speeding out of nowhere. Before she could react, she was knocked to the ground. The pain shot through her palms and legs as they scraped against the rough surface. She tried to stand up, but the pain was
unbearable.
Suddenly, the car door opened, and the driver stepped out. ‘Are you alright?” he asked, concern evident in
his voice.
“I can’t…” she managed to say, her voice trailing off.
The driver looked at her in surprise. “Ma’am!”
“What ma’am? Alpha Xavier has long abandoned this woman. What do you think you’re doing?” a rude and arrogant voice interrupted.
Mrs. Elinor, sitting in the back seat of the car, strode over with a haughty expression on her face. She showed no sympathy as she sneered at Bella. “Bella, did you do this on purpose? Did you fail to win over Alpha Xavier, and now you’re trying to get his attention in this pathetic way? Your tactics are too low–level.”
Bella seethed with anger. “Mrs. Elinor, you’re quite skilled at talking nonsense, aren’t you?”
“Talking nonsense? Didn’t you use these kinds of tactics to seduce Alpha Xavier in the beginning? Now that you’ve heard he’s going to be engaged to Samantha, you can’t stand it anymore, can you? Are you planning to do something again?” Elinor’s disdainful gaze bore into Bella.
Bella had endured that look from Elinor countless times during her three years of marriage to Alpha Xavier. Back then, she was her daughter–in–law, and she couldn’t talk back to her. But now, after their divorce, they were nothing more than strangers. There was no reason for Bella to tolerate Elinor’s unreasonable behavior. Yes, she was the Alpha’s mother, but Bella wasn’t an Omega either! She had royal bloodline, and she was capable of going into battle against the Alpha King himself for the crown! She was skilled, and her wolf wasn’t weak. She had to hide the true her because they were not living among their kind, but they were living peacefully with humans. But they had their own lands, training spots, and warriors.
She sneered at Elinor. “Don’t worry. Mating a cheating scumbag like Alpha Xavier once was enough for me. If I wanted to have anything to do with him, I must be out of my mind!”
Her words hit Elinor hard, and unable to bear it, she slapped Bella across the face. Bella struggled to stand up, but the force of the slap sent her tumbling back to the ground.
The bystanders, unable to witness Elinor bullying Bella any longer, began to criticize her. “How can she be so arrogant after hitting someone? We should call the police!”
As the crowd voiced their disapproval, Elinor’s arrogance wavered, and she quickly retreated to her car, leaving Bella lying on the ground, bruised and battered.
