Chapter 136: Olivia is Missing
Chapter 136: Olivia is Missing
(God’s POV)
Theodore’s words were spoken so softly that only the nearby Matthew Kane could hear. He didn’t want to embarrass Olivia, so naturally, he wouldn’t let more people know this secret.
Even Olivia herself shouldn’t know.
Matthew’s expression was indifferent, his tone unreadable. “It seems Alpha Redgrave hasn’t had enough of the holding
cells.”
As their gazes clashed, Theodore realized something. His dark eyes turned chillingly cold.
“You knew all along?”
Victoria Kane’s voice cut in. “Matthew, don’t disturb Alpha Redgrave’s rest.”
She feared the two Alphas would clash again. Olivia also looked over.
Theodore’s newly reattached hand clenched into a fist. His eyes filled with rage as he glared at Matthew.
But when his gaze met hers, his entire expression shifted to one of sorrowful affection. She averted her eyes, watching as
Matthew walked towards her.
As they left, Theodore seethed, grinding his teeth. He would not allow them to complete their mating bond!
No one could hurt his Olivia. Their marking ceremony was in five days, and he was certain he could find a way to stop it.
After leaving the hospital room, Matthew instructed Beta Tristan. “Destroy all the medical examination reports left at the
infirmary.”
Beta Tristan nodded and went to carry out the order.
In the back of the car, Matthew asked, “Going to try on the ceremonial gowns?”
Seeing Victoria’s high spirits, Olivia didn’t object. Sensing her low mood, Matthew gently took her hand.
She pulled it from his grasp and turned her face to the window.
“Are you angry?” Matthew’s voice was soft. “Upset that I didn’t let the person who framed you come forward to clarify
things sooner?”
Olivia remained silent, still looking away. She was upset with him.
“Doing so was to push the Mooncrest siblings into a corner, to let my mother see their true colors,” he explained. “You’ve been wronged, Olivia.”
Matthew’s large, warm hand gently rested on her slender one. “How could I not believe you?”
This time, Olivia didn’t pull away. Matthew took her hand firmly, turning her to face him.
“It is you who doesn’t trust me.”
Feeling a pang of guilt, Olivia lowered her head. She trusted her Alpha King implicitly, even with her life.
She didn’t know what had come over her this time. Doubting him based on Cynthia’s words and Caelan’s edited video without even asking.

She felt a bit chagrined.
“It won’t happen again, my King,” she promised.
A warm touch landed on her chin as her face was gently lifted. She met Matthew’s earnest gaze.
“What did you call me?” he asked, a hint of displeasure in his tone.
“Matthew,” she replied.

They were so close their breaths mingled. His faint, masculine scent enveloped her as an ambiguous warmth filled the air.
(Olivia’s POV)
Suddenly, the car door was pulled open. “Brother, we’re here!”
Seraphina’s voice broke the spell. I immediately pushed Matthew’s hand away, my warm face turning aside.
Seeing my shy reaction, a smile spread across Matthew’s lips.
“Oops! My bad!” Seraphina covered her eyes, peeking through her fingers.
We walked in hand in hand into the boutique dress store. There were many dresses here, making me feel dazzled.
“Do you have any good suggestions?” I asked Victoria, who had selected a traditional Luna ceremonial gown.
When I came out after changing, I saw Matthew’s eyes light up. “Looks great,” Victoria nodded with satisfaction.
However, the wedding dress was another matter. I tried on dress after dress, my expression growing increasingly stiff.
Matthew, who had been looking at documents, slightly curled his fingers. “Wedding dress… actually isn’t necessary.”
Victoria agreed readily. “I think so too. The traditional ceremony robe looks more solemn. Olivia, what do you think?”
I sighed softly. “The ancestral ceremonial attire is very nice.”
I had never imagined mating again or putting on a ceremonial dress. Now, I was in a difficult position and could only go through with the process.
But I didn’t want it to be too extravagant or troublesome. I felt no anticipation for the ceremony.
Victoria then brought up the topic of our new home. She presented brochures for luxurious estates, high–rise apartments, and manor houses, all starting at over a hundred million.
I was stunned. “That’s not necessary.”
Matthew interjected, “It is.” He draped his arm over the back of my chair, leaning in and flipping through the brochures.
“Where would you like to live?”
The feeling of him so close made me straighten my back. I whispered, “Your estate is fine if you just renovate it a bit.”
But Seraphina enthusiastically chimed in, analyzing the pros and cons of each option. Feeling cornered, I pointed at the cheapest option.
“The high–rise is fine.”
Seraphina immediately recommended, “Sister–in–law, Silverwood Heights is the best high–rise in the territory.”
The matter was settled. Victoria then offered a mating gift of 8.88 million, placing a black card in my hand.
The reality of a true mating ceremony, so different from just signing papers, finally sank in. I glanced at Matthew, whose waiting gaze seemed unusually gentle.
As if he were truly looking at his mate.

“The gowns are chosen, let’s go see the new home,” Victoria decided, giving me no chance to refuse.
Matthew couldn’t join us due to Alpha duties, so the three she–wolves went to Silverwood Heights. Guided by an agent, we compared a few units.
I followed behind.
As we were walking from one building to another, my elbow was suddenly seized. I was forcefully dragged into an
elevator.
My eyes met a pair of cold, sinister ones.
(God’s POV)
Halfway down the path, holding her mother’s arm, Seraphina suddenly froze. “I remember now, this complex is a property under Alpha Theodore’s name.”
Victoria was stunned and turned back to look. Her face paled in terror.
