Chapter430.
I eyed the she–wolf warily, keeping my voice calm.
“Who are you?”
She seemed surprised by my composure, a slight smirk touching her lips.
“Huh, you don’t even know who I am?”
She scrutinized me, her eyes filled with disdain.
“It seems Alpha Grayson only sees you as a novelty.”
Her condescending tone made my eyebrows rise slightly, a cold smile–without warmth–creeping onto my face.
“Oh really? Perhaps you’re simply not important enough for my brother to bother mentioning you?”
The she–wolf’s smug expression froze, her arrogance vanishing, replaced by chilling coldness.
I raised an eyebrow.
It seemed I’d guessed correctly.
As if confirming my thoughts, a male voice, laced with amusement, sounded from behind them.
Both the she–wolf and I turned to see Alpha Grayson slowly emerging from behind a cluster of trees in the distance.
The light was dim, making it hard to see his face clearly, but his cold aura was palpable.
Everyone froze; even the air around us seemed to still.
Alpha Grayson looked terrifying, but to me, he was not frightening.
He walked to my side, checking to ensure I was unharmed, then turned his icy gaze to the she–wolf, who instantly became subdued.
The she–wolf visibly stiffened under his
gaze;
her
arrogance
vanished.
Her voice trembled, laced with cautious flattery.
“Brother… why are you here?”
Grayson’s expression remained cold, devoid of warmth.
‘Did I allow you to address me as such?”
The she–wolf’s face paled, her eyes welling up.
She looked aggrieved, yet resentful.
“We all share the Smith name! We’re family! I’m your sister!”
Grayson let out a cold chuckle.
“Family? You are unworthy.”
Without hesitation, Grayson casually draped his arm around my shoulders and turned to leave with me.
Julia’s eyes reddened.
‘Alpha Grayson, you used to care for me too!”
Grayson’s arm around my shoulders tightened momentarily, then relaxed.
He led me to a black vehicle parked nearby.
Left behind, Julia glared at my back, her eyes blazing with fury.
Grayson’s protective gesture was like a needle piercing her eyes and heart.

“Alpha Grayson, she’s manipulating you! She’s just trying to provoke the Millers!” Her voice was cut off as the vehicle door closed, her words disappearing.
Grayson leaned back, starting the engine, and sped off.
I sat quietly beside him, saying nothing.
After a while, the cold aura around him gradually dissipated.
During a pause in the journey, he looked at me through the rearview mirror, his voice hoarse.
I didn’t tell you about the Smiths before, not to hide it from you.
But you’re right; they aren’t important enough to mention.”

I nodded gently, my eyes clear and trusting, without a hint of doubt.
“I understand.”
Grayson’s tense muscles relaxed slightly, returning to his usual gentle demeanor around me.
A slight smile played on his lips as he mentioned casually, “That she–wolf… her name is Julia.
