<b>Chapter </b><b>47</b><b>: </b><b>Those </b><b>Who </b><b>Covet </b>His Luna Should Disappear
<b>(</b><b>Olivia’s </b>POV)
<b>Theodore’s </b>gentle gaze instantly turned murderous as he reached out to take the dark gray hair clip from Killian’s palm. “<b>Why </b>is my Luna’s hair clip in your hands<b>?</b><b>” </b>
His voice carried a dangerous edge that made my blood run cold.
However, Killian avoided Theodore’s handpletely. He walked directly toward me and ced the clip in my palm
instead.
I stared at Killian in confusion. Why was he revealing himself to be so aggressive when we were supposed to pretend we
<b>didn’t </b>know each other<b>? </b>
This Killian feltpletely different from the cautious professor I once knew. His boldness terrified me.
“I picked it up in theboratory,” Killian stated calmly.
Theodore immediately grabbed his cor with both hands. “Why did you take my Luna to theb?<b>” </b>
His amber eyes zed with Alpha fury. The veins in his neck bulged as his rage intensified.
Theodore suddenly realized something and pointed at the ruby ne around my neck. “Did you remove it using the
high–precision instruments in yourboratory?”
His voice dropped to a menacing whisper that sent chills down my spine.
Killian remainedpletely indifferent to Theodore’s anger. He didn’t answer the question at all.
Instead, he gently ced the hairpin in my palm. His fingers brushed against mine briefly.
When Theodore was about to throw another punch, Killian casually reminded him. “Many people are watching.”
His tone was almost bored, as if Theodore’s threats meant nothing to him.
Indeed, numerous reporters had gathered around us like vultures. Some held cameras broadcasting live footage.
Their confrontation was turning into entertainment about two Alphas fighting over a Luna. The crowd pressed closer,
eager for drama.
Beta Gideon Frost stepped forward quickly. “I was the one who found the hair clip.”
He handed me a thick document folder. “This is our innovative drug project proposal.”
“Despite yesterday’s unpleasantness between Alpha Theodore and our professor, the research institute still wishes to coborate with Crimson Pack.”
Only then did Theodore release Killian’s cor. He regained hisposure with visible effort.
Theodore pretended to casually straighten his wrinkled cor. In reality, the two Alphas had already exerted enough
pressure <b>on </b>each other.
They were trying to make the other unable to cope with their dominant energy.
Theodore dered coldly, “<b>Any </b>project involving Killian will not interest Crimson Pack.”
His voice carried absolute authority. “I can guarantee no pack in Stonehaven City will invest <b>in </b>his projects.”
<b>Both </b><b>Alphas </b><b>struggled </b><b>against </b><b>each other’s </b>overwhelming presence. The air crackled with tension <b>between </b><b>them</b>.
<b>Reporters</b><b>‘ </b><b>jeering </b>finally made them separate reluctantly. Theodore patted Killian’s chest threateningly.
<b>“</b>Remember my warning,” he said with deadly calm.
<b>I </b><b>didn’t </b><b>understand </b>why Killian would offend Theodore to get close to me. Hadn’t Matthew told him <b>that </b>I was about <b>to </b><b>leave </b>Theodore?
Killian showed no fear whatsoever. “The Crimson Pack will eventually beg to cooperate with our research institute.<b>” </b>
<b>When </b>we left theboratory building, therge screen on the wall was broadcasting a press conference.
The host introduced Killian enthusiastically. “A genius scientist well–known in both the human world and the supernatural realm.”
“He began studying in Europe at the age of sixteen. After twelve arduous years, he achieved outstanding discoveries in mechanics, materials science, mechanical engineering, and biomimetics.”
“He now serves as a distinguished professor at Crestwood University and director of the Sanctuary Research Institute.”
I felt genuinely happy for him. I recalled how he had faced life–threatening situations multiple times in Europe.
His journey had been incredibly difficult and dangerous. Yet he had persevered and seeded brilliantly.
Theodore saw my expression full of admiration for Killian. He turned me by the shoulder forcefully.
He looked at me with a deeply furrowed brow. “Promise me you won’t let Killian get close to you again.”
His grip on my shoulders was almost painful. I brushed his hand away and walked straight ahead.
Returning to the Redgrave Pack Tower, Evelyn intercepted us in the lobby. “Olivia, you didn’t answer my dozen phone calls!<b>” </b>
She looked frantic and desperate. Her usually perfect appearance was disheveled.
“Theodore stopped the coboration between Crimson Pack and the Croft Consortium,” she used him with zing eyes.
However, I stated coldly, “It was my decision, not his.”
My voice cut through the air like ice. “The Croft Consortium wasn’t qualified.”
Evelyn was visibly shocked. “But you encouraged me before! You said hard work would improve the Consortium’s situation.”
“After trying several projects without sess, even your efforts were useless,” I replied harshly.
“I no longer want to help those who disgust me continue to leech off me.”
When Evelyn desperately grabbed my hand, I felt only revulsion. “We’re best friends! You promised to help manage projects!”
I looked directly into her guilty eyes. “I no longer want to help.”
I forcefully removed her hand from my arm. The memory of her chatting andughing with ra made my heart ache.
Evelyn fell to the ground dramatically. She turned to Theodore for help desperately.
“We grew up together! You know me!”
Theodore ignored herpletely. He followed me and praised my decision.
“Very wise, my love.”

Evelyn shouted from behind<b>, </b><b>“</b>You’ll regret treating me this way!”
I returned to my office<b>, </b>trying to focus on work. Soon Caleb knocked on my door.
“Luna Olivia, I couldn’t reach Theodore,” he said nervously.
Caleb looked genuinely panicked. “Because of my broken engagement with Evelyn, my father is furious.”
“I need to secure other projects from Theodore. Otherwise, my father will break my legs.”
He apologized profusely. “I’m sorry for ra’s repeated offenses. Please help me mediate.”
Looking at his hypocritical apology, I tugged at the corner of my mouth. He had always exploited my kindness for his own gain, then turned around to mock me in front of Theodore. Now he was here with his fake apology. <fne136> Find the newest release on FιndNovel</fne136>
I just wonder what his expression will be when he finds out that I’m the one who canceled his project?
We went to Theodore’s office together. Through the door, I heard Eleonora’s voice clearly.
“You can be with ra and our pack can flourish thanks to Evelyn, who discovered ra and introduced her to me.”
My blood turned to ice in my veins.
“Our pack owes Evelyn a great favor. You should not only coborate with the Croft Consortium but give them major projects.”
“You’re right to treat your Luna well, but you can’t listen to everything she says.”
“Evelyn is such a good she–wolf, good to both you and her. As a best friend, instead of helping, she’s kicking her when she’s down.”
“I’m so disappointed in her.”
I couldn’t believe what I was hearing. I kicked open the ss door. It mmed against the wall stop with a deafening bang.
The sound startled all three people in the office. They turned toward me in shock.
I strode toward Evelyn with murderous intent. My hand connected with her face in a resounding p.
“How dare you face me?”
