Chapter199
Ethan said, “I won’t be polite.
He chuckled, lightly clapped Xander on the shoulder, and left.
There were two doors in the room; the person he’d sent someone to find was inside. He didn’t ask why; the only thing he knew was that it had something to do with the Cooper Family.
Xander went in.
Inside sat a middle–aged woman with snow–white hair and a gaunt face. Seeing Xander, her gaze was vacant and dazed for a long time before she mumbled, “My son is as handsome as you.”
Xander responded with a gentle and polite smile, “Thank you for the compliment.”
On the terrace.
I weakly propped my head up, having listened to my own “legend” for over ten minutes. It was told vividly and realistically.
The most repeated point was that my “sex skills” were incredibly impressive. The most unbelievable claim was that I possessed a long–lost boudoir secret technique, specifically used to seduce male werewolves.
Ivy initially tried to comfort me, but by the end… she seemed eager to hear more.
Ivy, leaning softly against my shoulder, purred, “Honey, are you really hiding your talents? You can’t keep good things to yourself, you know.” She was as seductive as a little green snake that’s had too much realgar wine. She was wearing a vibrant green dress that showed off her skin beautifully, too.
I was speechless. My wolf covered her face, “THE MISUNDERSTANDING IS GETTING DEEPER AND DEEPER.”
I drained my glass of wine.
Standing up, I went downstairs, my expression serious as I approached the group. I raised my hand, adorned with a bracelet featuring the eight trigrams, and began to perform some kind of palmistry.
The group was initially embarrassed.
Then they looked at each other in astonishment: What’s she doing?

I finished my “reading,” sighed deeply, and said to them, “Within a week, you will all suffer a bloody disaster.”
Then I left.
Leaving the group dumbfounded, speechless, their expressions gradually turning to fear.

[vy almost laughed herself to death. Following me back inside, she said, “Honey, you’re too good at making things up.”
My expression was solemn, “Who says I’m making things up?”
[vy was almost taken aback by my seriousness:“… Really?”
I replied through the pack bond, “I fake it.”
…You little rascal!”
Ivy playfully shoved me.
All joking aside, I was genuinely frustrated. I couldn’t actually do anything in this situation. I had come with Xander as his female companion, and now I was pulling hair and fighting at a party… was that appropriate?
Looking around the room, I noticed Ethan had come out, but Xander was nowhere to be seen. He must be meeting the person he really wanted to see.
Chat:199
Some mysterious big shot.
“Ivy, do you know what mysterious figure Mr. Chou invited today?”
“Isn’t it your Xander?”
I didn’t bother correcting her. Besides him?”
That’s it. The only person Mr. Chou would consider an important figure is your…”
“Okay, okay, I get it.”
‘Oh, oh, oh, you’re shy.”

I was panicking, okay!
I sighed. Even I didn’t know; apparently, today’s mysterious guest was a big shot who couldn’t show their face.
