Chapter 194
Jared also blamed himself. “It’s my fault; I was focused on the pack; I didn’t notice Emily’s emotional state. If I’d been more attentive, this wouldn’t have happened!” His wolf hung his head, heavy with regret.
Andrew looked at him, his eyes red, yelling, “Did you scold lier?”
Jared hesitated, shaking his head and finally nodding. He hadn’t scolded her; but he hadn’t comforted her like before. His wolf whimpered inwardly.
Andrew’s voice turned colder.“Because of a pack matter, you neglected Emily! If anything happens to her, I won’t forgive you!”
Jared looked at him, yelling back.“How could I know she was so fragile! If it were Isabella, she wouldn’t do this over a little setback!” His wolf bristled defensively.
Andrew pointed at Jared, yelling. “Don’t mention that ungrateful whelp! If not for her, would Emily be like this?! She’s bullied Emily; now she’s spreading rumors, ruining Emily’s reputation! She’s a menace!” His wolf was consumed by anger towards me.
Jared frowned.” Andrew, Caleb is right; you can’t blame Isabella for everything.”
“Shut up! Emily was the one lying in a pool of blood!”
Andrew’s wolf’s fury was uncontainable.
Jared frowned; it wasn’t his fault. His wolf felt unjustly accused.
Just then, Emily woke up.“Andrew, Jared, don’t argue for me.”
They stopped arguing instantly, rushing to her bedside.
Andrew bent down, his voice soft with concern.“Emily, how are you feeling?”
Her eyelashes trembled; seeing them, her eyes reddened.
Her wolf whimpered softly.

She shook her head weakly, her voice barely audible.“Andrew, Jared, I’m sorry… did I cause trouble again?” Tears streamed down her face; she looked pitiful.“I’m sorry; I worried you; I made you and Jared argue…”
Andrew felt sympathy; he wiped her tears, speaking firmly and reassuringly.“Don’t say that, Emily; you’re never a burden. It’s my fault; I didn’t take care of you; you’ve suffered. Don’t worry; I’ll handle everything; just rest; your health is most important.”
Emily nodded softly.
Once she fell asleep, Andrew left the ward. Closing the door quietly, his face darkened like a winter night. He strode down the hall, pulled out his comm–stone, and dialed.
“Release a statement immediately,” his voice was icy, each word squeezed out like a threat.“Say Isabella stole Emily’s designs at the international competition; Emily is the real creator.”
He paused; cruelty flashed in his eyes.“Add that Isabella is ungrateful, causing Emily to have depression; she must apologize!”
