After finishing her call with Hugo, Thora tossed her phone aside and kept her eyes on the projection screen in front of her.
It was playing a surveillance clip that Luke had recovered from the Military Hospital system.
On the screen, Laurel whispered a few words to the werewolf guards at Marlon’s hospital room door. After sending them away, she went straight to Marlon’s bedside.
There was absolutely no audio in the room, but Thora could read their lips perfectly.
“What are you doing here?” Marlon’s voice was full of disgust when he saw her.
Laurel forced a smile. “Norman’s always busy, so he can’t visit often. Since I’m his mate, I made time to come see you.”
Marlon let out a cold snort, the authority of an Alpha still strong in his eyes. Even weakened, it made Laurel shrink back a little. “You think you deserve to see me? You’re the one who killed Thora’s mother! I don’t know what kind of bad luck Norman had to be mated to a woman like you. Don’t think I don’t know, you’ll do anything for your own goals.”
His words hit Laurel like needles. The mask slipped from her face, and her voice turned sharp and full of Omega’s resentment. “Enough! You old fool! All you care about is that little bastard Thora! Isn’t Hazel your granddaughter, too? Why does Thora get everything?
“She nearly killed me last time, and you didn’t even say a word about it! What’s so special about that little bastard that makes you like her so much?”
“Shut up!” Marlon shouted, trying to lunge at her, but the effort made him cough up a mouthful of blood.
Laurel was about to call for help when she remembered what the werewolf guards had told her before they left: “Mr. Green’s health is getting worse. He mustn’t get agitated. The doctor said if he coughs up blood, you have to give him his medicine right away, or his life could be at risk.”
She paused, then walked to his bed, watching him shudder and cough violently.
“Medicine… My medicine…” Marlon tried to lift his hand toward the nightstand.
This was the same Alpha who once tore enemies apart on the battlefield, and now he couldn’t even reach his own medicine. He had to rely on a woman who hated him to save him.
Laurel crouched down, her tone sharp. “Marlon, answer a question for me, and I’ll get your medicine. Don’t glare at me like that. I’m your son’s mate, and I’ve given the Greens two kids.”

Chapter 203 Give Me The Key
Finished
Ever since Thora almost shot her in the head, she’d stopped caring about consequences. She was determined to fight for everything she and her children deserved.
“You old fool, tell me, are you hiding a special key?” she whispered urgently.
The moment he heard “key,” Marlon’s face changed. His cloudy eyes stared at her. “How… how did you know about that?”
“That’s none of your business.” Laurel leaned closer, her voice vicious. “Give me the key, and I’ll save you. If you refuse, I will let you die right here!”
Marlon’s chest heaved. Using all the strength he had left, he shoved her away. “Dream on!”
“Ah!”
Laurel hit the floor hard, rage blinding her.
She scrambled up and threw herself at Marlon, slamming him down to the ground. “I’ve had enough of you, old fool! You think you’re still the all-powerful Alpha? You’re just a useless old man, one breath away from dying! If you weren’t so obsessed with that little bastard Thora, do you think I’d do this to you?”
But suddenly, she noticed he’d gone still.
Laurel paused, leaned in to check if he was breathing, and a flicker of panic showed in her eyes.
She quickly pulled herself together, straightened her clothes, and called out, “Somebody! Mr. Green fainted!”
Nurses and werewolf guards rushed in, and in the confusion, Laurel slipped out of the room.
Thora’s brows drew together in a cold frown.
Laurel must have gone straight to the surveillance room to delete the footage after this.
She usually acted dumb, but she could be cunning in a crisis. The last incident with Wendy must have made her more cautious.
And Marlon had become a vegetable after collapsing this time.
Thora’s eyes stayed cold.
Who is pulling Laurel’s strings behind the scenes?
They aren’t just after the key-they want whatever secret about ability enhancement the key holds.
Is it tied to Samuel and Project Spirit Wolf?
