Chapter 32
Sheila hastened out of the private room, retrieving her phone from her handbag to call Goldie when a force hit her, and the phone fell.
Her concern was the phone, so she ignored the person who had bumped into her and rather aimed for her phone, but before her hand reached it, a faster one beat her to it.
“I’m sorry I wasn’t watching where I was going,” a velvety voice spoke close to her ears. He smiled gently, handing the phone over to her. “Your phone. Please check for damages, if there are any, I will pay for it.”
In a grey suit, the man looked divine, and Sheila felt that the face was familiar. She forced a smile and took the phone from him. Graciously, there weren’t any damages, and even if there were, she didn’t think it would be fair to make him pay.
“It’s fine, no damages.”
The man smiled, but it was as if he rather wished there had been some damages. “In that case, I would like to buy you coffee to compensate for my rudeness.”
Sheila forced a smile. Being in the pack for six months without coming out, it was funny how she began to attract so many men like before. It was exhausting for her. “No need, sir. I equally wasn’t watching where I was going.”
At the mention of ‘sir, the man stared at her as if she was from a different world. He stretched his hand towards
her. “Alpha Ansaldo. What is your name?”
Sheila shook his hand. She remembered Alpha Ansaldo from the Riverbed pack. He was very respectable, but rumors recently revealed that his mate had been killed during a recent attack on the pack.
His mate was already known to be sickly and with a weak wolf. Sheila only heard the rumors with no facts to them. “Call me Sheila.” She neither wanted to add Alpha Nick’s surname nor her father’s.
Alpha Ansaldo withdrew his hand, but his gaze lingered on her. He was a man who knew how to flirt the right.
way.
“I guess my driver being late wasn’t a bad thing. I wouldn’t have met you here. So, where are you headed?” He wished to give her a lift so they could talk more, but Sheila knew all those tricks of the menfolk.

Neither was she ready for any of them. “I would love to stay and chat, but there is somewhere I urgently need to
be.”
A glint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, but he smiled, and it was gone. He had an irresistible charm, but was surprised that Sheila was not captivated by it.
Though one of the powerful Alphas, he has been true to his mate and never cheated on her throughout their struggles.
Now that the bond was broken, he was free to pursue whomever he wanted, unless the moon goddess gives him a second chance mate. “Can I have your contact?”
Sheila recalled what happened with Gustav, and with Alpha Nick still in the private room, it was better to not entertain this man. Even without Alpha Nick’s presence, she never wanted to be entangled with any man. “I’m
sorry, no.”
Sheila turned to leave, but he grabbed her arm. It wasn’t too tight, but it made Sheila uncomfortable. Unknown to her, Alpha Ansaldo felt humiliated at the fact that she wanted to walk away from him.
However, as he looked closely, his gaze grew curious. “Tell me why. You look familiar. Are you…”
“She’s my wife,” Alpha Nick rudely interrupted, snatching Sheila’s wrist from his hand. There was so much. violence in his eyes, it made Sheila shudder.
“Ex–wife,” she gritted her teeth and said. As the two men engaged in a staring contest, Sheila turned around and
left.
“Alpha Nick, I never saw you as one to divorce your wife,” Alpha Ansaldo spoke in a slightly mocking tone. If not for this issue, he would never have had the guts to speak to Alpha Nick in that manner.
Alpha Nick could blame no one but himself for the divorce. It was worthwhile because he was now going to settle down with his mate.
“It’s not your business. Don’t say what you don’t know.”
Alpha Ansaldo was about to say more, but Alpha Nick had already left, chasing after Sheila, but as expected, her car moved from the parking lot before he reached there.
Gritting his teeth, he sat in his car and headed to the pack house. Why did Sheila make him feel so miserable

Throughout the drive, he couldn’t get her out of his mind. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that
the
was more to Sheila than she said. Reaching for his phone, he made a call.
“I want to know everything about Sheila Thorax.”
At the end of the line, the man answered, “Yes, Alpha.”
Reaching the pack house, Charlotte was the first to meet him at the gate. She flung herself over him and leaned in to k*ss him, but Alpha Nick turned his head to the side to address a warrior.

“Inform the trainees and warriors to be at training early tomorrow. I have a surprise for them.”
Charlotte was curious. “Nick, what surprise is that?” She asked, forcing a smile. There was no trace on his face that he was upset. The assassin had confirmed that Sheila had died.
Charlotte had just transferred the last money in her account to him for a job well done, so why were things so
strange?
“It’s…” he suddenly recalled Sheila’s message and asked her, “what relationship do you have with Sheila?” His gaze at this moment had turned stern.
Charlotte shivered slightly, wondering if Sheila had mentioned her name before dying. If that was the case, then why won’t Alpha Nick bring proof?
“I don’t know what you are talking about.”
Alpha Nick sighed, not knowing whether or not to believe her and said, “She told me to pass a message.”
“She’s alive?” Charlotte paled and shivered from fright. If Sheila survived again, then she was indeed doomed.
How was it possible that she escaped every time? Charlotte was frustrated and afraid.
“What stupid question is that? Do you want her to die?” Alpha Nick was not taking it kindly this time, Charlotte clamped her palm over her lips.
Not knowing the explanation to give, she asked, “No. What is the message?”
