Chapter 158
Jackson clamped his mouth shut and open the back door for me like the perfect gentleman he wasn’t.
No, he was the literal big, bad wolf.
I was still feeling a little dizzy. Before getting in the car, my body swayed, and Jackson quickly held me by the waist.
“Ms. Palmer, are you all right?”
I shook my head and tried to break free from his grip, but he held my waist with one hand and helped me into the car.

Watching the Rolls Royce disappear into the distance, the man in another car put out his cigarette.
Under dim light, the cold moonlight shone through the window on the man’s stoic, hard facial features.
of his wolf’s fire.
Sitting in the back seat, Preston couldn’t see his expression
clearly. But something told him that Griffon had stopped here
to wait for Taya.
A worried expression unconsciously appeared on Preston’s
face. “Griffon, why aren’t you leaving yet?”
After a few seconds of silence, the man’s indifferent voice
spoke. “Wait for Andre.”
Andre said he had left something in the Wilton’s house and returned to get it.
However, Preston saw it for the excuse it was. Griffon would never wait for an assistant to do anything. Waiting for others
was an inconvenience for the Alpha.
The more Preston thought about it, the more uneasy he felt. “Don’t tell me you’ve fallen for that woman?”
He thought Griffon would deny it, but his response was nothing like he expected. “What if I’m really in love with her?”
Preston was shocked. He quickly sat up straight. “Griffon, you can’t. Her life would be in danger if you fall in love with her. An
Alpha can never mate a human. And although she isn’t a good person, I don’t want to see blood again.”
When Griffon heard this, the emotion in his eyes disappeared
and the stoic Alpha look was back in place.
He looked back at Preston with a smile.
“Preston, you’re still as easy to fool as when you were young.”
Preston could tell from his face that he was joking. Only then
did his tense nerves relax.
However, with a severe look, Preston reminded Griffon, “Don’t say such things in front of others in the future.”
If someone with ulterior motives heard Griffon say something
like that, the Knight pack would never be at peace, and the
rumors would be unstoppable.
Griffon looked away, his eyes filled with despair.
