Chapter 191: The Fallen Luna’s Desperate Plea
(Olivia’s POV)
“That woman is Margaret Grey,” I said quietly to Emma, recognizing the figure despite her drastically altered
appearance.
This was shocking. Previously, whenever I encountered Margaret Grey, she was always impeccably dressed in designer suits or luxury silk dresses. She would be adorned with matching sapphire jewelry and perfectly styled hair, radiating the unmistakable aura of a powerful former Luna.
Today, she looked exactly as Emma had described–disheveled and ordinary.
Without makeup, Margaret’s face appeared haggard and sallow. Dark circles shadowed her eyes, and she wore a plain light gray casual outfit that hung loosely on her frame.
She resembled an ordinary middle–aged woman from a modest pack rather than the former Luna of the prestigious Grey pack. It seemed the Grey pack was indeed in dire straits.
Even the once–proud and fashionable Margaret Grey had fallen to such a state. I couldn’t help but smirk, feeling a deep sense of satisfaction as I slowly approached her.
Margaret saw me and immediately rushed forward. She attempted to grab my arm, but Emma quickly pushed
her away protectively.
Margaret looked at me with desperate eyes. Having lost all her previous arrogance, she now pleaded with a humble expression that I had never seen before.
“Olivia Winters, please save the Grey pack, please help us,” she begged frantically. “Isn’t your Winters family the wealthiest in Riverdale? As long as you’re willing to invest and help us, I’ll do whatever you want!”
I chuckled coldly at her pathetic display. “You’ll do whatever I want?”
“Yes, yes,” Margaret nodded repeatedly, her voice cracking with desperation. “As long as I can do it, I’ll promise you anything. Please help our pack.”
Her hands trembled as she spoke. “I’m truly desperate this time. My mate is hospitalized from overwork, and Ethan is now drinking all day. Our pack is falling apart and can’t survive much longer.”
I looked at Margaret with a half–smile, enjoying her complete reversal of fortune. “What exactly can you do for
me?”
Margaret was stunned. What could she possibly do for Olivia Winters?
Even she didn’t know. She had been simply desperate to beg for help and said anything without thinking through the question.
“I… can you help our pack for Ethan’s sake?” Margaret pleaded, grasping at straws. “After all, you were with Ethan for three years, and you once loved each other. Are you willing to watch him become self–destructive because of our pack’s bankruptcy?”
If she hadn’t mentioned Ethan Grey, it might have been better. But as soon as Ethan was brought up, I
laughed in anger.

<Chapter 191: The Fallen L
“Mrs. Grey,” I called out, looking at Margaret’s haggard face with deliberate emphasis on her title.
Margaret’s expression turned ugly. This title now sounded deeply ironic to her, and she knew I was being deliberately sarcastic.
I curved my lips in a cold smile. “Mrs. Grey, have you forgotten what you said to me when we first met?”
Margaret’s face turned pale. Of course, she remembered.
At that time, Cassandra Evans had returned from abroad, and Margaret wanted Cassandra to mate with Ethan. But after learning that Ethan had a girlfriend of three years who was supposedly an ordinary person with no pack background, Margaret couldn’t allow such a woman to join the Grey pack.
So she had come to humiliate me severely. She believed I was only with her son for his status and wealth, thinking I was just a gold–digger dreaming of mating into a powerful pack.
Margaret recalled her harsh words with growing shame. “There’s no need for you to pretend in front of me. I know what you’re thinking. I know it’s not easy for you to meet an Alpha heir like our Ethan. He must have spent a lot on you, right?”
The memory continued to torment her. “What are you pretending for? You’re being hypocritical. I’ve seen many girls like you–you say you don’t care, but if you really didn’t care, would you have found Ethan?”

I said with amusement, “Thought I was just a penniless gold–digger, and being with Ethan was because I was after his Alpha status, right?”
Margaret lowered her head guiltily and shifted her gaze away. Her shame was written across every line of her
I continued with an indifferent expression. “Actually, I once considered bringing Ethan back to Riverdale to meet my family, and also thought about having the Winters pack invest in Grey Holdings.”
