I got up early. After washing up, I went downstairs. Breakfast was already set in the dining room. Grandpa sat at the head of the table, and Alan and Josh were already there.
“Grandpa, I’ve got something else to take care of, so I won’t be attending the board meeting,” Alan said first.
Josh quickly followed along. “I won’t go either. Finals are coming up, and I need to study.”
Grandpa didn’t push them. He smiled and nodded. “Alright, take care of your own things. The company matters will be handled by Samson.”
I didn’t say anything. I quietly reached for some bread, but my eyes drifted toward the staircase without thinking. I wondered if Amanda was up yet.
Just then, I saw her come around the corner. She had changed into a more formal outfit, which made her slim figure stand out even more.
“Good morning, Hugh,” she said as she walked over to the table and greeted Grandpa.
Grandpa waved at her with a warm smile. “Amanda, come eat breakfast. Come to the company with me later.”
“Okay, Hugh,” she replied and sat down beside me.
Alan had just finished eating. He stood up and said, “Grandpa, I’ll head out first. Take your time.” With that, he left the dining room.
I glanced at the empty plate in front of her and, without thinking too much, picked up a slice of bread spread with strawberry jam and handed it to her. “Try this.” I remembered overhearing her tell one of the maids that she liked strawberry jam.
She froze for a second, then took the bread. “Thanks,” she said softly. After taking a bite, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She looked up at me, studying me closely.
I knew she was wondering how I knew what she liked. A small sense of pride stirred in my chest.
Grandpa noticed the exchange. The smile on his face deepened, his eyes filled with quiet

I knew exactly what he was thinking. But when I thought about the fact that Læm was my destined mate, my mood immediately soured.
“Samson,” Grandpa suddenly said, “why don’t you take Amanda to the Operations Department first? I’ll head over a bit later.”
I didn’t quite understand what he was getting at, so I answered honestly. “Grandpa, I still have some important matters to report to you.”
The issue about changes in pack decision-making authority was no small thing. I needed to discuss it with him beforehand.
Grandpa could only say, “There’s no rush. We can talk once we get to the Operations Department.”
“No, this is important,” I insisted. “Grandpa, I’ll explain it to you on the way.”
I could feel Amanda glance up slightly beside me, clearly curious about what we were discussing, but she didn’t ask. She just kept eating quietly.
I looked at her calm profile, and the conflict in my heart grew heavier. If I told her that my destined mate was someone else, would she be hurt?
Amanda’s POV:
When I heard Hugh and Samson talking, I spoke up right away. “It’s fine. You two go ahead. I’ll head over later.”
For me, attending the pack elders’ meeting was just a formality anyway. I was only there to accompany Hugh, nothing more than a background presence.
Hugh smiled and nodded. Samson glanced at me as well, a trace of apology flickering in his eyes before he stood up and left with Hugh.
In the blink of an eye, the large dining room was empty except for me. I took my time finishing breakfast. Just as I set down my fork, a maid came over with my bag. “Ms. Lamb, your bag is ready.”
“Thank you,” I said as I took it, then turned and walked out of Ortega Castle.
The driver was already waiting outside. When he saw me, he quickly opened the car door.
