“I think you might have heard some rumors, but I’ve been recuperating in the villa.” When she said the second half of the sentence, she turned around and saw me.

My heart rate rose, and my ears rang.

But soon, she turned back to the paintings.

She kept standing before that one piece and introducing it to others. Was it because her friend produced this piece, or was she working here?

But I didn’t think she had the energy to do that here. After all, it was very difficult for her to come here from that manor without help unless someone picked her up.

A man approached her and got into her social bubble. Then, they hugged each other.

He must be the one who got Eloise out of that place. Had they already met before? The relationship between them must have reached a very intimate stage. I felt even worse when I thought of this.

‘See, I told you that you still care about her. You just don’t want to think that way.’ My wolf snickered in my mind. Of course, I disagreed with what he said, but he was right to a certain extent.

I was thinking about Eloise, but not in the way he claimed.

‘That is Soren.’ My wolf added.

Of course, I knew him. He was one of the people who had dealings with Eloise. But why was he here now?

He should have left. If they didn’t separate immediately, I would go over and ask them.

I couldn’t tolerate betrayal.

“What are you looking at?” Lisa’s voice rang in my ears.

She looked very happy. I think she must be having a good time with her friends. She looked much better than before.

However, her breathing was still a little shallow.

“It’s nothing. Let’s go back. If you stay here any longer, you might feel worse. ‘

When the weather became colder, her body would indeed get weaker. She didn’t look too happy, but she followed me out of the exhibition hall anyway.

“There are some things that I don’t know if I should say… ‘ Lisa wrapped herself in her coat and looked hesitant.

“You can tell me anything,” I consoled her.

“I just met Eloise.” She looked at me and took a deep breath.

“She didn’t notice me. She was chatting with a few people from a pack who don’t belong to ours. So I didn’t bother her.” She sighed. “She looked very mysterious. ”

What secrets did Eloise have?

It must be because she had done something she could not tell anyone.

But I didn’t think it mattered. No matter what, she was already living in the manor, which meant she had no chance to cause trouble.

‘Your heart is beating faster. You’re nervous.’ My wolf was laughing at me.

‘This might make you miss an opportunity with her.’

I didn’t want to give my wolf any attention. I already understood that arguing with him was pointless. The only thing on his mind was Eloise!

“Look at this!” Lisa had brought over a snow-white toy. She handed it over as if she had found a great treasure.

“Atticus, this feels very strange!”

I touched the toy that Lisa passed to me. It was very soft and cute, but strangely, I couldn’t help but think of Eloise’s wolf form.

This was too frightening..
