Chapter 159 No Trust

Third–Person POV:

George started to protest, “But, Miss-”

‘This thing between him and me… if we don’t end it for good, it’s always going to be like this.”

That was exactly what Lillian couldn’t stand anymore.

She needed to be back on the Western Continent before her father’s birthday.

Which meant she had to settle things with Julian, once and for all, before then..

‘Find out who really took the pup. Look closely into Iris.”

George gave a firm nod. “On it.”

A newborn pup was missing.

Who in their right mind would snatch a pup and not even bother making demands?

t didn’t take a genius to figure it out. Iris had probably staged the whole thing herself.

Only Julian would be naïve enough to-

Lillian walked up to the line of cars and told everyone to leave, but no one moved until Julian finally showed up.

Julian stepped out of his sedan, scooped Lillian up without a word, and practically shoved her into the back seat of his car.

As his vehicle passed George’s-

Julian’s eyes locked onto George’s distinct features, and his gaze turned downright threatening.

The drive back to Laurel Manor was spent in total silence.

Once inside, Lillian sank into one of the living room couches. Julian went straight to the cabinet, pulled out a bottle of whiskey, and cracked it open.

He knocked back two glasses before pouring a third and dropping onto the couch opposite Lillian.

The moment he crossed his legs, his stare was pure ice.

“Start talking, Where’s the pup?”

He cut straight to the chase.

It was phrased as a question, but his tone made it clear he already believed Lillian was responsible

Lillian met his gaze, a mocking smile touching her lips. “You’re asking me?”

“Lillian, that pup isn’t even four weeks old.”

She said his name, then trailed off.

She held his dark, merciless stare.

She’d seen that look in his eyes before. But back then, it had been reserved for his enemies.

Now it was directed at her.

A cold, bitter smile touched Lillian’s lips. “You never really trusted me, did you?”

Julian said nothing.

Lillian went on, “Back when you were pursuing me, you believed everything I told you. But ever since we became a pair-”

She broke off, shrugged, and shook her head lightly.

“Ever since then, anytime something involved your pack, you stopped trusting me.”

Basically, whenever it came down to the Graves Pack or her, he always sided with the pack.

Lillian continued, her voice low, “When I was carrying your pup, I don’t know what they told you, but you believed I wasn’t pregnant. That I didn’t lose the pup.”

The word “miscarriage” struck Julian like a physical blow.

For a moment, the air left his lungs.

Lillian’s tone turned sardonic. “And now tris‘ pup goes missing. Somehow, you think it’s me.”

Any time something went wrong, if the pack pointed a finger at her, Julian believed it. Every single time.

And he never even gave her a chance to explain.

He trusted them, completely and utterly.

Julian bit out, “The one who took the pup was Draenei.”

He spat the word “Draenei” as if it were proof of her guilt.

Lillian let out a hollow laugh. “Draenei? Because I had Draenei company before? So my Draenei associate did it?”
