Chapter 211

I quickly covered Summer’s mouth. I practically dragged Summer into the elevator, feeling like I was about to be silenced. I glared at her, a clear warning through the bond:“Dare you blab, and I’ll strangle you!” Things were already bad enough! No more ambiguous situations! I didn’t need them!

Summer laughed internally. Her wolf chuckled,” SEEMS THINGS HAS GOTTEN “HEATED” IN THERË.” She regretted not joining the fun.

Mmm mmm…”

Summer nodded and gave a thumbs–up, indicating she wouldn’t spill the beans.,

I finally released her. The three men from outside entered the elevator.

The elevator descended. Xander’s expression was colder than before. Though outwardly unchanged, he suddenly seemed less approachable. The pressure emanating from the next alpha made the elevator ride unusually quiet.

Leaving the building, I saw that Summer was concerned, that they’d come especially. Feeling touched, she offered to treat them to a late–night snack.

Xander declined, leaving with Derek.

‘He’s angry,” Summer whispered in my ear.

‘I see. No need to tell me!” I replied through the bond. “His brain hadn’t been functioning properly since our vacation. Let him go!”

I changed the subject.“Wasn’t it a late–night snack? He’s not eating, but Ivy and I are. Are you still treating?”

Summer: “Yes, yes, yes!”

She drove Ivy and me to a hot pot restaurant. The three of us chatted while we ate.

Ivy hadn’t interacted much with Summer before. Today, she found Summer to be a genuinely frank, chic, and intelligent beauty. Though Summer was a bit affected, Ivy preferred authenticity.

So, did Summer find the evidence to indict Tanner today?“,

Mrs. Cooper is a cunning old fox,” Summer said, letting out a cold, regretful laugh.“I thought after the previous two setups and oday’s final blow, she’d crack. But no…she skillfully evaded the key questions. What a pity.”

She angrily gulped down two beers.

That’s normal,” Ivy wasn’t surprised. She daintily ate a piece of twice–rinsed vegetable with her slender fingers.

Evil people become evil because they justify their evil deeds with plausible reasons. Those heartwarming reform scenes on TV are nonsense. They don’t think they’re wrong. The only ones truly at fault are those they believe should disappear.”

Ms. Ivy, you see through human nature very well.”

Call me Ivy. Can I call you Summer with Sophia?”

‘Sure.”

Summer readily pulled out her business card. “Ivy, if you have any legal problems, you can find me. I’ll give you a 20% discount.”

Ivy was stunned, then chuckled, covering her mouth. Her wolf was amused, letting out a soft laugh, “SHE’S A CAREER–ORIENTED GIRL.” She put away the card. “No problem. I’ll introduce you to more friends.”

Summer happily said thank you.

Leaving the hot pot restaurant, Ivy’s driver was waiting. She waved goodbye and gracefully departed.

As soon as we entered, Summer pulled me onto the sofa, took out her phone, opened an app, and excitedly asked, “Know what this

is?”

‘Don’t guess, just tell me,” I urged her.

You’re so boring,” Summer grumbled, then excitedly continued, “This is the key to sending Tanner to prison.”

She opened the app.

I looked closely and smiled.“The artifact sold to Mrs. Cooper had a listening device.”

I knew this little girl’s good mood wasn’t without reason.

How…”

Summer was surprised, but immediately understood.“You were peeking next door?”

I looked up in admiration.“Summer’s skills are amazing! I’m deeply impressed. This makes me, also an omega, feel ashamed.”

Summer thought back to the scene and couldn’t help laughing.“That old hag is too cunning; she wouldn’t believe it otherwise. But I also anticipated that I might not be able to pry her mouth open this time. The timing was ripe to sell her something after the previous two setups. So, I put a listening device in the necklace with the magic weapon and sold it to her, letting her take it back to coax Tanner into wearing it.”
