Chapter 215: The Mysterious Alpha Ethan
(God’s POV)
The apartment was empty.
Ethan Moonstone realized he had fallen into a trap.
Outside the door, a dark figure slipped in.
Ethan grabbed the intruder’s neck, but was thrown to the floor with an over–the–shoulder throw.
The moment he saw the person’s face clearly, he tucked his silver–loaded pistol back into his jacket.
“Who are you? Why are you in my mate’s apartment?” Theodore Redgrave looked down at Ethan condescendingly.
Ethan got up from the floor and studied Theodore. “As far as I know, this is Matthew Kane’s mate’s apartment.”
He immediately realized that the man in front of him was the cheating ex–mate who pretended to be deeply in
love.
“And you’re definitely not Matthew Kane.” Ethan moved past Theodore toward the exit.
His wrist was immediately grabbed by Theodore. “You’re not leaving until you explain yourself!”
After Theodore learning Olivia’s identity, especially when Jack said that many hackers had recently flooded
into the Sovereign’s Citadel, summoned by a top–level hacker from the dark web for a major operation.
He came to the Citadel for two reasons: first, he was hired by Theodore, and second, he wanted to participate in this operation.
If he could take the lead in the operation, he could make a name for himself on the dark web.
It might be targeting Olivia.
Theodore couldn’t rest easy watching from afar. He wanted to warn Olivia to be careful, to protect her.
“What? Do I need to explain my interactions with Mrs. Kane to you, an unrelated ex–mate?” Ethan sneered,
gripping Theodore’s wrist in return. “Don’t you have a beloved mistress you’ve loved for five years, and even
had a daughter with? You even deceived your own mate, cheating right under her nose. If you love her so
much, just keep loving her.”
His eyes and tone were filled with obvious contempt.
“Why won’t you leave her alone?”
“You!”
Theodore was left speechless by this stranger who had appeared out of nowhere to lecture him.
Ethan pulled out a lighter, lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and blew the smoke rings at Theodore’s angry face. His contemptuous gaze cast a shadow of gloom. “That woman lived for decades, was blind for decades, and when she was dying, she actually mated her daughter to someone like you.”

“How ridiculous.”
He suddenly pulled Theodore back, then pushed him away forcefully.
Theodore was caught off guard and crashed into the door.
Just as Theodore was about to chase after him, Ethan pulled his silver–loaded pistol from his jacket and aimed it at his forehead.
He flicked his cigarette ash to the ground, curved his lips into a smile, his voice ice–cold. “Alpha Redgrave, I’m not the assassin you hired. Bullets don’t have eyes.”
Theodore froze in place, only able to watch helplessly as this inexplicable man left.
He knew everything!
The “that woman” he just mentioned was Lyra Blackwood.
He knew Lyra!
Every word was defending Olivia!
He probably wouldn’t pose a danger to Olivia.
But if he wasn’t here to harm Olivia, why was he carrying a gun?
The moment Ethan walked out of the apartment, he put away his pistol and held his phone to his ear. “Are you already at the cinema?”
“I’m at the residential complex, planning to pick you up…”

As he walked out of the apartment, Matthew Kane’s indifferent face appeared in his line of sight.
It really was a trap.
At that moment, Theodore also followed him out.
“Why did you come here?” Matthew’s expression was calm and unreadable.
Ethan’s gaze fell on the woman in the car behind him.
She really looked like Lyra Blackwood from his memories.
So gentle, as if a breeze could blow her away.
“The elders arranged it, I couldn’t refuse. I came to pick up Seraphina for a movie.” Ethan explained his presence to Matthew and walked directly toward Olivia.
“Don’t let him get close! He has a gun!” Theodore shouted excitedly, watching Ethan approach Olivia.
But Matthew remained motionless, waiting for Ethan to approach. Red laser dots had already appeared on Ethan’s body, moving from his heart/to his temple.
Standing in front of Matthew, he pulled out his pistol and handed it over. At that moment, the sniper on the rooftop loaded his rifle.
“Don’t you trust me either?” Meeting Matthew’s oppressive, indifferent gaze, Ethan stepped back, pressed his hands on the gun grip, and instantly disassembled the pistol.
Looking at Matthew, he released his hands, and the gun parts fell to the ground. There were no bullets inside. “My father was worried and gave me one to scare someone.”

He said flatly, as an explanation.

“Did I frighten you?” Ethan looked at Olivia. “Nice to meet you. I’m Alpha Moonstone’s son, Ethan, also the match Seraphina is considering, and I grew up with Matthew.”
Ethan wore gold–rimmed glasses, and looked refined and elegant. He didn’t seem as cold as Seraphina had described, and he was quite talkative compared to Matthew.
Olivia didn’t respond to him.
Whoever had appeared in her apartment at this moment could potentially be the hacker who had just tried to infiltrate her apartment’s network.
Theodore… Olivia ruled him out directly.
He had no interest in computers whatsoever.
But Ethan…
“Olivia, he knows Lyra.”
Regardless of whether Ethan had ulterior motives, Theodore felt he had to be cautious.
“Don’t let him get close to you.”
Olivia looked surprised.
A barely perceptible sinister look flashed in Ethan’s eyes as he turned to look at Theodore. “Lyra Blackwood was the eldest daughter of the Mooncrest pack before she ran away, a genius she–wolf who emerged thirty years ago. Who wouldn’t look up to her as a role model? Is it strange that I know her?”
“You’re talking about my mother?” Olivia got out of the car and walked up to Ethan.
“Of course.”
Ethan’s gaze fixed on Olivia’s bright little face, constantly overlapping with the image of Lyra in his mind. His hands hanging at his sides trembled from suppressing his anger, veins bulging on the backs of his hands.
“Olivia, he’s not a good person.” Theodore clearly sensed that Ethan had ill intentions.
Ethan seemed angered by Theodore’s words and turned to scold him. “Alpha Redgrave is such a good person, yet he conspired with Caelan Mooncrest to blacklist Shield Chain Technology in the venture capital circle, staged a assassination to disrupt their mating ceremony. It seems your victim act has been exposed.” “What else are you planning to do?” Ethan’s tone was full of sarcasm, his gaze falling on Olivia’s arm linked with Matthew’s, sneering. “I’m afraid nothing you do will be enough now.”
