Chapter 21: Your Brother Also Has A Mistress
(Olivia’s POV)
Eleonora’s face darkened the moment I spoke. Her eyes narrowed, her gaze a mixture of anger and suspici
I red at her without hesitation, and she realized that I had heard herment about my mother. But instead of feeling sorry, her face was filled with an expression of displeasure.
As the former Luna, she would never allow anyone to interfere with her decisions. Nor would she tolerate anyone defying her.
“Olivia, this has nothing to do with you. You’re not feeling well, go back to your room and rest.”
I ignored herpletely. My gaze remained fixed on Isadora, waiting for her decision.
Seeing my cold attitude toward her, Eleonora had no choice but topromise under Isadora’s stubborn gaze. But her tone was impatient.
“I’ll help you take care of this, okay? Don’t make Oli worry about you, and don’t tell your brother.”
Eleonora’s voice took on that dismissive, patronizing tone I’d grown to hate. “I’ll make ric break up with that woman. If you don’t want to see that pup, I will also have him take responsibility for putting the pup in
foster care.
She waved her hand as if swatting away a fly. “Stop talking about severing the mate bond.”
Her attitude made Isadora even more upset, and her tears began to fall.
“Mom, I’m your biological daughter, not a decoration you’ve ced in the Drake pack to upy territory.” Her voice shook with emotion. “I have the right to choose my own life. I want to sever my mate bond!”
With a sharp c***k, Eleonora moved in front of her and <b>pped </b>her across the face. Her face contorted with <b>rage </b>
“If you dare <b>sever </b>the bond with ric, I won’t acknowledge you as my daughter.” Her words cut like silver daggers. “Don’t expect to return to the Crimson Pack as a youngdy: The Redgrave family will never produce rejected Lunas.”
Isadora covered her face, and I could see the dawning realization on it: when it came to the pack’s interests. the was not her mother’s first choice.
She remained defiant. “Finel From <b>now </b>on, I’m <b>not </b>your daughter<b>, </b>and Iris isn’t your granddaughter.”

Chapter 21 Your Brother
Iris threw herself into Isadora’s arms, sobbing. “Mama, hurry and make uncle stop hitting Papa. Papa’s
bleeding so much.”
Inside the teahouse, ric was being held down by two gang enforcers and whipped with a silversh.
His face was swollen beyond recognition, covered in welts and blood.
Theodore sat across from ric with cold, emotionless amber eyes. His Alpha aura was so powerful and
intimidating that even I felt its weight.
When ric weakly called out Theo… Isadora, save me,” Theodore’s voice was ice. “What right do you have to call my sister’s name?”
The pack enforcers hit him harder. ric’s pained groans filled the room.
Eleonora tried to intervene. “Theodore, the Drake pack may be in decline, but you can’t treat an Alpha this
way<b>.</b>”
Despite being <b>hit</b>, ric’s eyes remained arrogant.
“What’s wrong with having a mistress? It’s normal for an Alpha to attract a few she–wolves.” He spat a mouthful of bloody foam at Theodore and gave a cold smirk
“Honorable Alpha Theodore, don’t you have one too? Why are you pretending to be so righteous now?”
Hearing this, I released Isadora’s hand.
Since ric already knows about Theodore, what about Isadora? Is she helping them deceive me too?
Isadora pped ric hard across his already battered face. “You’ve done despicable things, but you dare nder my brother. My brother would never do anything to betray my sister–inw.”
She turned to Theodore, her eyes full of hatred for her mate. Her voice shook as she detailed ric’s crimes.
“Brother, he’s been unfaithful to me. He has more than one mistress. He openly brought one of them into the pack, allowing her to call herself the ‘future Luna Drake.” Her voice broke. “And he even got her pregnant.”
Tears streamed down her face. ‘Brother<b>, </b>I never want to see him again. I will never forgive him!”
I
Listening to Isadora’s tearful usations, I felt the same <b>pain</b>. I recognized my own situation in her words, heard my own inner voice.
I can’t take it anymore. I’m afraid of what ric might say next.
I’m <b>not </b>Isadora, I don’t have a brother like Theodore, and I’m not ready yet. I can’t reveal everything I know, I <b>don’t </b>have the strength to fight back.

<b>After </b>the car left, Isadora <b>buried </b>herself in Theodore’s arms and cried bitterly.
In the bedroom, Iris had cried herself to sleep. Leo stayed by her side, gently wiping tears from her eyes.
I watched this scene, lost in thought. My son’s kindness touched something deep in my chest.
Leo looked up at me with confused eyes. “Mom, why would uncle be with another woman and hurt aunt so
much?<b>” </b>
His young voice <b>was </b>filled with genuine bewilderment. “I’ll never call him uncle again.”
He naturally embraced my neck, seekingfort as he used to after nightmares. His empathy for Iris made my heart tremble.
I naturally hugged him back, feeling his small body against mine.
I <b>decided </b>to test him. Leo, what would you do if your father became like your uncle? Being with another woman and making me sad like your aunt?”
Leo’s innocent eyes widened. “Would that make you as sad as Aunt Isa?”
Remembering how harmoniously Leo got along with ra, I released him. My heart felt like it was being carved by a razor.
“Maybe I would be even sadder.” <fna483> The rightful source is find?novel</fna483>
Sensing my low mood, Leo said softly. “Then I won’t call him daddy anymore<b>.</b><b>” </b>
This made my tears fall again, perhaps my son could still be saved.
Finally, I asked him the question that had been burning in my mind. “Leo, about the little girl with short hair in
the photo – what’s her name?”
