Chapter 19: Never Having Children with Theodore Again
(Olivia’s POV)
Eleonora’s eyes zed with fury as she stepped closer to Theodore. “Why has ra appeared at The Crimson Pup Creche despite being cast out from the pack?”
Her voice cut through the stunned silence like <b>a </b>de. “You better have a good exnation for this,
Theodore”
“Not only will Olivia be angry, but I, Isadora, ric, and Iris will never forgive you if you’ve done something
unforgivable.”
Seeing her act so righteously, if I hadn’t known that she and ra were as close as mother and daughter in

Isadora snatched the folder from the pack enforcer’s hands. Her face went pale as she flipped through the surveince images.

“Brother,” she whispered, her voice trembling. “Tell me you haven’t truly done something to betray your n
She threw the folder to the ground in disbelief. The photos scattered across the estate’s stone entrance.
Theodore’s arm was wrapped tightly around me. I struggled to break free, but the more I struggled, the tighter
he held on.
I already know who saved me. The one who called me “Junior Sister” at the creche, who altered the surveince footage–only he has that kind of ability – Kin.
Seeing my copse, he would have immediately checked the surveince footage. He discovered the truth and remotely reced the images that the pack enforcers found.
Theodore’s dark <b>eyes </b>were unfathomable. No one could tell what he was thinking behind that imprable.
gaze.
A small voice broke through the tension. “What’s happening?”
Leo climbed out of the back seat, rubbing his sleepy eyes. He had been napping during our drive back.
He saw the scattered photos on the ground and immediately bent down to collect them. “Grandma, why are you throwing away my <b>photos </b>with Aunt ra?”
His small hands gathered the printed images carefully. “Aunt ra is going abroad. These are ourst photos together“–
Tears began streaming down his face. “I’ll never see her again.”
Leo clutched the stack of photos against his chest, crying silently.
Eleonora’s expression shifted as she realized the situation<b>, </b>She quickly pulled Leo aside, her voice gentle but probing.
“Leo, sweetheart, why was your father also present in these photos?”

ra away.”
Everyone around us breathed a collective sigh of relief. The tension in the air began to dissipate.
Eleonora <b>smiled </b>warmly. “It was all a misunderstanding then.”
But Iris, Isadora’s young daughter, stepped forward with curious eyes. She pointed at one of the photos in
Leo’s hands.
“Uncle Theodore,” she said in her clear child’s voice. “In this picture, your hand and the woman’s hand <b>are </b>both holding Leo’s hands.”
Her innocent observation caused a wave of embarrassment among the gathered crowd. “It looks like how Mommy and Daddy hold my hands when we’re together as a family.”
ric quickly intervened, his voice smooth and dismissive. “Leo probably fell down, and both adults helped
him up<b>.</b>”
He examined the photos more closely. “The surveince footage seems unusually clear though, as if it had
been enhanced.”
tears had dried on my face as I looked at Theodore. His ink–ck eyes grew even deeper and more unreadable.
I knew he would soon have his pack enforcers verify the surveince photos. But I was confident they would
find no trace of maniption.
Eleonora pped her hands together decisively. “The misunderstanding is resolved. Everyone must be
hungry.”
“Let’s go to dinner,” she announced with forced cheerfulness.
Leo took fris’s hand, carelessly handing the photos he had treasured moments before to a nearby pack
servant.
“Iris, I discovered something really fun today,” he said excitedly, his earlier tears forgotten.
I <b>watched </b>their innocent, joyful figures walking ahead of us. The memory of Theodore striking Leo shed through my mind.
<b>My </b>heart filled with indescribable emotions. My five–year–old pup wasn’t truly corrupted.
He had been influenced by <b>ra’s </b>maniption. With ra <b>gone</b>, I believed Leo would learn to distinguish right from wrong as he grew up.
At dinner, Eleonore watched an Theodore carried me into the grand dining hall. He <b>gently </b>tended to my <b>Injured </b>hand with cold water
She handed Theodore a small tube of ointment. “Apply this to Olivia’s hand”

“ra is to me for all this trouble,” <b>she </b>continued firmly. “She will not be allowed back into the pack”
Theodore carefully spread the ointment across my palm. His touch was gentle.
Eleonora settled into her chair at the head of the table. The family should spend more time together.”
Her eyes focused on me with meaningful intensity. “Olivia, you should consider having another pup”
“Lyra’s death anniversary is approaching,” she continued, “Her spirit will soon bless you with a daughter.” I stared at Eleonora with a cold, sharp gaze. Her expression became slightly unnatural under my scrutiny. But she pressed on relentlessly. “Your mother would want you to have more children. She would want the Redgrave line to continue.”
I sneered. How dare she? After indulging Theodore’s mistress, she still had the audacity to think she could manipte me using my deceased mother.
I pushed away her hand with sudden force. My voice rang out clear and final across the dining hall.
“I will never have children with Theodore again,”
Eleonora and Isadora stared at me <b>in </b>shock. The entire room fell silent.
Eleonora maintained herposure, though her smile was strained. “Olivia, dear, having only Leo would be lonely for him.”
“The pack’s future would be too much burden for one heir,” she argued gently.
I calmly met her gaze, “Are you certain that Theodore only has Leo as his child?”
