Chapter 4

This revelation hit the crowd like a bomb, and many began voicing their outrage on my behalf.

"How could someone be so shameless? This is no different from a cuckoo stealing another bird’s nest!"

"Veya has been through so much, paying off debts for a man like that!"

"They didn’t just scam her into paying off debts—they also stole her youth and a chance at happiness!"

Even Chris looked at me with sympathy in his eyes.

"Veya, let me throw them out for you."

"No need." I stopped him. "This is my personal matter. I can handle it myself."

I noticed Noah standing behind them. I approached him and cupped his face.

"Noah, will you choose them or me?" I asked calmly.

Noah glanced at Lila as if drawing strength from her, and then responded in a neutral voice.

"Mom, this will be the last time I call you that. Thank you for taking care of me all these years, but Lila’s love for me is no less than yours. In fact, she’s spent more time with me than you have.

And I’m relieved she’s my real mother because if I’d inherited your genes, I’d be stuck as the weakest Omega for life. I hope you won’t stand in the way of our family reunion."

Hearing this, Lila immediately pulled Noah into her arms.

"All my love for you over the years wasn’t in vain."

Lila then turned to mock me.

"Veya, if you want a child, you can find another man and have one yourself. But don’t cling to Noah anymore."

I gave a bitter smile. After all these years, I had only raised an ungrateful wolf cub. So be it. He was never indeed mine, to begin with.

Before I could respond, Kael couldn’t wait to add his threat.

"Back then, I saved you from being attacked and stabbed by a group of rogues. If I wouldn’t reach on time, they would have raped you. " He then turned to the crowd and raised his voice.

"After recovering from my injuries, I faked my death because I never loved Veya—I’ve always loved Lila. I only hid the truth because I didn’t want to hurt her. How was I wrong to do that?"

The crowd buzzed with mixed opinions. Some men seemed swayed by Kael’s words and acting.

Seeing fewer voices of criticism, Kael pressed me further.

"Veya, we’re even now. All I’m asking for is what rightfully belongs to me—this company. It was founded solely by me before we became mates. I’ll give you 100,000 as compensation for managing the company all these years."

He then handed me a transfer agreement.

At this, Chris could no longer hold back. He grabbed Kael by the collar and roared,

"100,000? To repay everything Veya has sacrificed? She helped you pay off 10 million in debt!"

Hearing Chris’s words, one of my business partners immediately offered to find the best lawyer to help me fight this in court.

But Kael remained unfazed by Chris’s fury. Instead, he smeared my reputation further.

"Oh, is this your lover? Looks like you’ve been living quite well since my fake death. You probably paid off those debts by sleeping with these men, didn’t you? I mean, how else could an Omega manage a company?"

Bang! Chris punched Kael square in the face, knocking him to the ground.

In all the years I’d known Chris, he’d always been gentle. It was the first time I’d seen him lose his temper.

When Chris raised his fist to hit him again, I stopped him.

"No, Chris, stop!"

I stepped forward and, to everyone’s astonishment, signed the transfer agreement.

"Fine. I’ll let you have your family reunion."

Lila and Kael were momentarily stunned as if they hadn’t expected me to agree so readily.

"But," I continued, "I have one condition."
