Chapter 254: The Ultimate Cheat Code

(Author’s POV)

Hearing Alpha Arthur York’s blatant flattery, Griffin Drake felt no pleasure.

Instead, a thick sense of irony washed over him.

“Is there really no one who dares to offend me?” Griffin asked coldly, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Arthur froze, his smile stiffening on his face.

“Who would have thought that a she–wolf like Amelia would dare to openly oppose me?” Griffin continued, his eyes narrowing dangerously.

Arthur quickly waved his hand, desperate to explain.

“Mr. Drake, you misunderstand,” Arthur stammered. “Amelia is nothing.”

He leaned in, lowering his voice conspiratorially.

“She is merely borrowing Theodore’s authority to intimidate others,” Arthur insisted. “Without the Crimson family behind her, she is just a toothless pup.”

Griffin leaned back, considering this.

Aside from this reason, he truly couldn’t fathom where Amelia got the audacity to provoke him repeatedly.

He had spent the last few days analyzing the situation.

He believed he finally saw through the fog.

It wasn’t that Amelia was arrogant on her own accord.

It was Theodore Crimson using that woman’s hand to humiliate him.

Griffin’s jaw tightened.

His true opponent had always been that crippled heir of the Crimson Moon Pack, Theodore.

Director Bruno, sensing an opening to prove his loyalty, stepped forward.

He had worked hard to grab onto the coattails of the Drake family.

“Mr. Drake,” Bruno said eagerly. “I give you my word.”

He puffed out his chest with bravado.

“Even if Director Liam dares to take on *The Alpha’s Ambition*, I have absolute confidence I will crush

him.”

Griffin turned his gaze to the director.

He slowly rotated the heavy Signet Ring on his finger.

“Since you have made such a guarantee, I will trust you for now,” Griffin said darkly.

His eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

“But if you fail, you will bear the consequences.”

Bruno swallowed hard but nodded vigorously.

Arthur hesitated for a moment before broaching the subject he cared about most.

“Mr. Drake, regarding your Mating Ceremony with my daughter Jade…” Arthur began tentatively.

He rubbed his hands together nervously.

“When do you plan to hold it? I worry that without it, we cannot properly secure the alliance between our

families.”

Griffin scoffed lightly.

“Let’s wait until Gale Entertainment completely destroys Starlight Entertainment,” he stated nonchalantly.

Arthur’s eyes lit up instantly.

“Consider it done!” Arthur declared, slapping his thigh. “I will use every resource to blacklist Starlight. They

will be bankrupt within the month.”

Griffin watched the greed spread across the old Alpha’s face.

He sneered internally.

Arthur was willing to sell his own daughter as a political sacrifice without a second thought.

*Jade betrayed me once,* Griffin thought, a cruel smirk touching his lips. *But as an Alpha’s daughter, her beauty is still useful.*

His mind drifted to Amelia.

Since Theodore cared so much about her, Griffin formed a vicious plan.

He would ruin her completely.

He would record a video of her destruction and send it to Theodore.

He wanted the cripple to watch his mate being destroyed, helpless to intervene.

(Theodore’s POV)

The atmosphere in my office was heavy with silence.

Beta Marcus stood before my desk, handing me a sealed confidential file.

“These are the latest leads, Alpha,” Marcus whispered.

< Chapter 254 The Ultimate Cheat Code

I opened the folder.

Inside were details regarding my long–lost younger brother–the true second son of the Crimson family.

Years ago, my father Theron had switched the babies, leaving my true brother to grow up unknown.

I had ordered Marcus to investigate this in absolute secrecy.

If Griffin or anyone else in the family found out, my brother would be in grave danger.

I carefully scanned the photos and data of potential candidates.

My finger paused over a blurry image.

“What are you looking at so intently?”

Amelia’s voice broke my concentration.

I looked up as she placed her wooden herb box on the desk.

I didn’t hide the file from her.

“I found some clues that might lead to my missing brother,” I said honestly.

Amelia leaned closer, looking at the documents.

“How do you plan to confirm it?” she asked softly. “Will you bring them all in for DNA testing?”

I nodded slowly.

“I won’t let any possibility slip through my fingers,” I replied firmly.

Amelia smiled, her blue eyes warm.

“You will find him, Theodore,” she encouraged. “I believe it.”

We set the heavy matters aside and shared a quiet lunch together.

After we finished eating, I moved to my wheelchair.

Amelia knelt beside me, her hands preparing to work.

She began using ancient healing techniques on my legs.

I watched her focused expression as she worked on the damaged nerves.

Her fingers were strong and precise.

Suddenly, a melodic ringtone shattered the peace of the room.

I withdrew my gaze and pulled out my phone.

The screen flashed “Alpha King Gideon.”

Irritation flickered in my chest.

I took a breath and answered, keeping my voice low and respectful.

“Grandfather.”

Amelia paused in her pressing.

She looked up, her sapphire eyes meeting mine.

“Is Amelia with you?” Gideon’s commanding voice came through the speaker.

“Yes,” I replied.

“Bring her back to the Crimson Moon Pack House tonight,” he ordered. “I need to see you both.”

The line went dead before I could ask why.

I put the phone away and looked at Amelia.

“Grandfather wants us to return to the main house tonight,” I told her.

Amelia nodded, though her brow furrowed in confusion.

“Why would the Alpha King summon me so suddenly?” she wondered aloud.

A sarcastic smile tugged at the corner of my mouth.

“I suspect it has something to do with my dear Cousin Vivian being poisoned,” I said dryly.

Amelia’s eyes widened in realization.

“Ah, I almost forgot about her,” she said, a mischievous glint appearing in her eyes. “I’ve been so busy with

Starlight.”

She stood up, wiping her hands.

“She must have gone crying to your grandfather, trying to force me to hand over the antidote.”

I chuckled.

“Grandfather isn’t one to listen to one–sided stories,” I pointed out. “Besides, the poison you used is

unique.”

I looked at her with admiration.

“Standard toxicology screens and modern medical equipment won’t find a trace of it. Vivian is destined to

be disappointed.”

Amelia smirked, crossing her arms.

“Good,” she said decisively. “Then I’ll just increase the punishment. Until you have full control of the family, she isn’t getting the antidote.”

She tapped her chin thoughtfully.

“Maybe I should catch that trash Derek too,” she added, half–joking. “He tried to assault Skylar. A dose of

Chapter 254: The Ultimate Cheat Code

that poison would keep him in line.”

“I agree,” I said, imagining the peace that would bring. “If they want to live, they’ll have to behave.”

I looked at the woman standing before me, feeling a surge of pride.

“Amelia,” I said, shaking my head in amusement. “Your poison is like a cheat code in a game. Any complex family struggle seems solvable just by poisoning the opponent.”
