    <b>Chapter </b><b>114</b>: <b>Unexpected </b><b>Encounters </b>


    <b>Chapter </b>114<b>: </b>Unexpected Encounters


    <b>(</b><b>Third </b>person’s POV)


    Harrison was respectful, and his tone waspletely devoid of the arrogance he <b>had </b>just <b>disyed </b><b>toward </b>Olivia. “I was <b>just </b>chatting with thiswyer about our hobbies, and I got a little excited.”


    Olivia Winters tightened her hands at her sides, her wolf instinctively recognizing the shift <b>in </b>power dynamics<b>. </b>She looked up, met Connor Rivers‘ ice–blue gaze, and called out politely and distantly<b>, </b>“Alpha


    Connor,”


    Thomas Wilson was not often at thew firm, nor did he follow entertainment news or werewolf <b>pack </b>politics closely. Although he recognized La Lawrence’s face from recent scandals, he didn’t <b>know </b><b>that </b><b>the </b><b>actress </b>was recently making headlines with Connor Rivers.


    He didn’t even know that the Alpha standing before him was Olivia’s former fiancé. Thomas usually <b>didn’t </b>have ess to people of Connor’s status, but he was very observant.


    Seeing that the president of Apex Industries was respectful to this young man, his human instincts immediately understood that the werewolf with the noble bearing must have extraordinary status within <b>the </b>supernaturalmunity. He also greeted him respectfully: “Hello, Alpha Connor.”


    Connor’s gazended on Olivia Winters, his wolf stirring restlessly at her proximity. She was wearing makeup today, and her high ponytail and sportswear made her look like a college student<b>, </b>beautiful and energetic<b>, </b><b>so </b>captivating that his chest tightened.


    No wonder the lecherous Alpha had been staring at her with such obvious interest. Connor’s eyes narrowed slightly as he looked down and saw Olivia’s slender, fair legs under her short skirt:


    Seeing her dressed so beautifully and staying with two older men, Connor suddenly felt a burst of possessive irritability in his heart, his wolf pushing forward protectively. He almost couldn’t help but take off his coat and tie it around Olivia’s waist, then drive away the two men beside her with a show of Alpha dominance. Connor suppressed the territorial anger and displeasure in his heart<b>, </b>his eyes remaining cool, and he gave a nomittal “hmm” without expression, which was considered a response. “You talk,” Connor said curtly and walked away, his wolf pacing restlessly as he forced himself to maintain distance.


    He hade to the golf course today to apany a friend who had just returned from ckmoor Territory. His friend’s name was Derek, and he had been instrumental in helping him secure the Frederick Warner situation in the Western Territory so quickly.


    After walking away, Derek, who had been following Connor and hadn’t said a word, immediately changed into an expression of discovering a new world and said, “Connor, if I’m not mistaken, wasn’t that your fiancée <b>just </b>now? Why did your reactions look like you weren’t familiar with each <b>other</b><b>?</b><b>” </b>


    Derek had immigrated to ckmoor Territory more than ten years ago. He didn’t know Olivia <b>personally</b><b>, </b><b>but </b><b>a </b>few years ago, he had seen a photo of Olivia in Connor’s overseas business office.


    At that time, Connor had mentioned that the person in the photo was the woman <b>he </b>intended <b>to </b>mate <b>with</b>. Later, Derek had made a special trip back to attend Connor and Olivia’s engagement ceremony.

    Chapter 114. <b>Unexpected</b><b>.. </b>


    <b>Seeing </b><b>that </b><b>Connor’s </b><b>Intended </b><b>mate </b>was <b>the </b><b>woman </b><b>he </b><b>had </b><b>been devoted </b><b>to for </b><b>years</b><b>, </b><b>he </b><b>had </b>congratte. <b>him </b><b>on </b><b>finally </b><b>achieving </b><b>his </b>goal. “We broke <b>up</b><b>,” </b><b>Connor said tly</b>.


    <b>“</b><b>What</b><b>?</b><b>” </b><b>Derek </b>was shocked, “Why did you suddenly break up when everything seemed <b>perfect</b><b>? </b>Didn’t <b>you </b><b>wait </b><b>years </b><b>to </b><b>finally </b>have her agree <b>to </b>the arrangement?”


    <b>A </b><b>caddie </b><b>handed </b>Connor his custom golf club set. Connor took <b>it</b><b>, </b>swung the club with <b>practiced </b><b>Alpha </b><b>precision </b>and hit a ball cleanly, “I didn’t want her to be implicated. She almost lost <b>her </b><b>life </b><b>because </b><b>of </b><b>the </b><b>threats </b>against me.”


    Derek understood immediately. During the engagement ceremony, Olivia’s young cousin <b>had </b>been <b>kidnapped</b>, <b>and </b>Connor was seriously injured by silver weapons.


    <b>The </b>engagement ceremony had to be canceled. Later, he also learned that <b>it </b>was all nned <b>by </b><b>the </b>Rivers family’s former foster daughter Vanessa, and Frederick Warner was the one who helped her behind <b>the </b>


    scenes.


    From then on, Frederick had begun his campaign of revenge against the Rivers pack. Derek <b>asked</b><b>, </b>“<b>Did </b>Frederick attack her againter?<b>” </b>


    Connor’s eyes turned cold, his wolf growling internally, and he told Derek about Frederick sending mercenaries to hunt him and Olivia, as well as Richard Winters being pushed down the stairs by hired <b>thugs</b>. Derek’s expression darkened, “He actually used military–grade weapons against pack members<b>? </b>This is Northern Territory–how dare that rogue Frederick operate so boldly here!”


    “He covered his tracks well. The authorities can’t trace it back to him.”


    “Then you have to be careful. That rogue Frederick will do anything when he’s cornered, especially since he has no pack bonds to restrain him.”


    Derek sighed, reached out and patted Connor’s shoulder, “It was right to break the engagement for her safety<b>, </b>but it’s hard on both of you–loving each other but not being able to be together.” Connor lowered his eyes, his heart stirring withplex emotions.


    Loving each other but not being able to be together? No, his wolf insisted fiercely. This is only temporary. Once Frederick’s threat is eliminated, he will definitely pursue Olivia again andplete their mating bond. Meanwhile, Harrison edged closer to Olivia, his Alpha posture bing more predatory, “Does Lawyer Winters usually like to y golf?<b>” </b>Olivia moved to the side, putting some distance between herself and Harrison while her wolf bristled with difort, and replied politely, “I know a little, but I don’t y often.” Harrison didn’t know about Olivia’s prominent family background within werewolf society, and assumed she was just an ordinarywyer from a smaller pack, relying on her modest monthly ie. Such an amount was nothing in <i>his </i>eyes–barely enough for one of his business dinners.


    Harrison smiled, his expression quite condescending, “That’s understandable. Buying a set <i>of </i>quality equipment would cost a month’s sry for someone in your position, not to mention <b>the </b>course fees <b>and </b>coaching expenses.”


    “The annual membership fee for a course like this costs more than three million yuan. <b>There’s </b><b>really </b><b>no </b><b>point </b>in spending everything you earn working so hard on such luxuries.”


    <b>Olivia </b>pretended not to hear the contempt in Harrison’s words, her <b>wolf </b>maintaining <b>careful </b><b>control</b><b>, </b><b>and </b>smiled brightly, “You’re absolutely right.”


    Chapter 114: Unexpected.


    This smile made Harrison’s pulse quicken, and he could hardly control his predatory instincts. He had <b>always </b>been ustomed to using his wealth and Alpha status to his advantage, and he had nevercked female


    His mated bond at home was purely political, while he maintained numerous affairs outside. Over the years, he had financially supported quite a few young women from lesser packs.


    Harrison was immediately filled with confidence, “Lawyer Winters, why don’t I get you a membership here? How about you keep mepany when you’re free<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    Olivia sneered internally, her wolf recognizing the threat immediately. She could see through Harrison’s disgusting intentions at a nce.


    He imed to be offering golfpanionship, but if she really agreed, it wouldn’t be as simple as just ying golf. Three million yuan for a membership and he thinks he can im a female werewolf–judging by his age and scent, he was definitely mated at home.


    How shameless. Olivia didn’t show the contempt and revulsion in her heart<b>, </b>she just curved her lips in a slight smile, “I’m sorry, Alpha Harrison, I can enjoy ying with you today, but I really don’t have much free time usually.”


    Thomas Wilson frantically tried to catch Olivia’s attention with meaningful looks, clearly wondering why she was rejecting such a lucrative opportunity, but Olivia pretended not to notice.


    Harrison wasn’t annoyed by the rejection, his wolf interpreting it as typical female coyness. He had encountered all kinds of situations in his predatory pursuits, and he assumed that Olivia was just a woman being appropriately reserved and ying hard to get.


    He thought he had seen many females like this before–they all pretended to be aloof at first, acting uninterested in his wealth and status, taking it step by step and making him work for it. What werewolvesmonly called “gold–diggers seeking powerful mates.”


    But in his eyes, what these ambitious females were seeking was nothing significant to an Alpha of his standing. The woman before him was a rare beauty, more stunning than those female influencers and minor celebrities he had bedded before.


    If he could im her, he would be willing to spend considerably more. Harrison was determined to seed, maintaining a gentle smile, “That’s perfectly fine. I understandwyers are very busy with their caseloads<i>.</i>”


    “We’ll arrange something when <i>your </i>schedule permits. Let’s just enjoy today’s game.”


    Olivia smiled and replied, “Of course, Alpha Harrison.” Harrison was so captivated by Olivia’s smile that he couldn’t help but be reckless and said, “How about this–I’ll make a wager with you, Lawyer Winters.”


    “If you can hit a ball onto the green within <i>ten </i>strokes, I’ll transfer 100,000 yuan to your ount. Every stroke under that, I’ll add another 100,000 yuan.”


    Olivia asked with a sweet smile that <i>didn’t </i>reach her amber eyes, “What if I lose? What if I can’t <b>reach </b>the green within ten strokes<b>?</b><b>” </b>


    Harrison’s face flushed with anticipation, his wolf practically salivating, “Then Lawyer Winters, how about you do me the honor of having dinner with me tonight? Just the two of us, somewhere… private.”
