Eternal Claim 842

Chapter 842 Am I Crazy? Hayley’s POV: “You don’t even have to look at me to know I’m smiling?” Truman teased, sounding playful. “Maybe because I’ve got eyes everywhere,” I shot back, all sarcasm. He laughed out loud. “You’re getting as cocky as I am.” “Guess that’s my bad luck.” I smirked, shifting my face to look meaningful. “I always figured a clueless daughter would have a clueless dad, but maybe that’s not totally true.” “Indeed.” Truman nodded, matching my tone. “Gavin heard everything, but he didn’t explode on Celine. He’s very good at hiding his emotions. “If he wants to survive around all these Betas and Alphas, he’s gotta be tactical.” I nodded, a little thrill running through me. “Honestly, that makes things more fun.” I was pretty surprised by Freya’s reaction earlier. She was also someone with strong endurance. If she’d only tried to defend herself for a second and blamed Celine instead, both of them would have been finished. No man who’d been cheated on wanted that old scandal dragged back into the gossip mill after all the years. If Gavin ever realized his daughter had set him up, he’d flip. Freya dodged a bullet this time, but my little rescue ended up being the party’s hot topic. People even joked I could bring the dead back to life. When I heard that, I couldn’t help laughing and shaking my head. But Freya wouldn’t be so lucky next time. Sooner or later, she’d pay for what she did. Freya’s POV: Celine led me out the back door, untied me, and sent the Omega house staff away. Chapter 842 Am I Crazy? Finished Once they were out of sight, she dropped the friendly act and snapped, “Freya, what’s wrong with you? “I told you that I can’t wear red in my house. Are you crazy?!” Her arrogant tone made me want to shift and tear her apart. Was I crazy? Yeah, maybe–for staying friends with this idiot! If it weren’t Celine’s dumb idea, why should I take the blame? Now look at what happened. Everyone thought I broke the rules. People would think twice before letting me join them in the future. And she had the nerve to blame me? Didn’t she ever use that dumb brain of hers? Hayley was sharp. There was no way she’d show up at a setup like that without checking first. The Waltons‘ scandal was all over the internet. Did Celine really think Hayley wouldn’t find out? If Gavin didn’t have that booming business in Winterbite Pack, I’d have tossed Celine out ages ago. But for now, I had to deal with her nonsense. “I just messed up.” I clenched my fists, swallowing anger and pretending to give in. But I couldn’t help it and snapped, “Why didn’t you tell me before Updates are released by Find1Novel.netyou did this?” Celine instantly looked guilty. She stammered, “I … I just wanted to help you get even with her. “Also, when we talked in the group chat, you didn’t respond, so I thought you were okay with it.” Group chat? Oh, right. Me, Celine, and two other girls had a group chat. But honestly, it was always just them posting boring selfies or gossiping about designer bags. I barely paid attention to it. I wasn’t like those airheads who only cared about parties and finding a destined mate. I had to work my butt off to get the old–timers in the Sander Group to back me leading the packs in their territories. noveldramaI pushed those thoughts down and lied, “Hayley set me up, and I spent a few days in lockup. I didn’t see your messages.” Truthfully, even if I hadn’t been locked up, I wouldn’t have cared to read all those pointless texts. I sneered at her when she wasn’t watching. “Hayley again!” Celine snapped. “She ruins everything! I can’t stand her!” Her anger over Hayley made me smirk. I narrowed my eyes, clenched my fists, and ground my teeth. “Looks like we need to teach her a real lesson next time!”
