Alpha's Substitute Bride - Chapter 101
Chapter 101: You Don’t Have To Leave
Page’s POV:
It was as if I had lived in Eloise’s shadow since I was young. When I was young, Soren’s eyes were always on her, so he never saw me.
I worked hard to learn Eloise’s drawing skills to catch even a glimpse of him.
I didn’t think that my drawing was worse than hers, but the fact was that she got better results than me and gained more attention. Soren’s eyes were always on her. Even though I wore the same clothes as her, he didn’t notice me.
I tried my best to get everyone’s attention, but to them, I was just an ordinary person living in this pack. I wasn’t destined to be chosen here, so no one paid attention to me.
After that, Atticus sent me to a distant city to learn the art. When I was on the other side of the earth, I wanted to come back many times, but I didn’t have the chance. I believed I’d become a better person.
However, when she appeared before Soren and me, I realized that I still couldn’t compare to her. Naturally, this made me very depressed.
Did she have some other story before that? I needed to unearth them.
Eloise’s life was straightforward, and I knew most of it. The only thing no one else knew about was her wedding to Atticus.
There was no video recording of the wedding, and it looked like a terrible wedding that was not recognized by the world. Compared to true love, it was more like a deformed product of marriage. In addition to Eloises obsession with Atticus, this could turn into a disaster because she was the one who put herself into the lives of those two people.
If other people knew how she became Atticue bride, would they still support her efforts as they did now? I couldn’t wait to see that unfold. Of course, I knew no one would like her.
I looked at the information before me and couldn’t stop thinking about it. I could feel the corners of my mouth rising. I couldn’t refuse this.
“Page?”
I looked up when I heard someone call me.
Atticus walked toward me. His expression was very gloomy. I didn’t know what had happened, but I could only smile at him. I was very satisfied with my work this time. At least, I believed I could surpass Eloise.
Would he give me the award? I didn’t expect anything else. I only hope he would praise me sincerely during the award ceremony. Besides, I knew that Atticus wasn’t as favored anymore because of his marriage. If it was possible, I could even replace him as the Alpha.
However, there was a big premise: I had to marry Soren.
“They want to build a studio for you here if you need it.” He suddenly spoke emotionlessly.
Although it sounded like a promotion, I knew how serious this was. It meant had no reason to look for Soren. So how could I accept this?
“But I can’t accept such an arrangement. I don’t think I can do so. I… ”
I knew I shouldn’t say this, but I was already very anxious. It was a rare opportunity for me. I couldn’t give it up. However, Atticus only looked at me. I couldn’t see any emotions in his eyes, but he shook his head.
“This is a joint decision of their companies, so you have no right to refuse. I’m only responsible for passing on their message. But, of course, you can also go and find out more about this.”
I couldn’t believe it and quickly sent an email. Once again, I received a positive answer.
Why was he like this?
When I was younger, my parents told me they didn’t think I had the talent for these things and would rather let me learn something else and inherit the pack’s legacy, but I didn’t think so. However, I felt that all these had returned to my mind today. They were so important that I couldn’t breathe.
It seemed that I was going to be trapped here forever..
