Chapter 4
Before the engagement party started, I had just finished my makeup when Lily came looking for me.
She looked at me with resentment, her eyes full of hatred:
"Nova, why? I refuse to accept it! Why were you born with high status while I can only be a despised Omega!"
"Even Liam, the one I like, has to be forced to be engaged to you because of your father's power!"
Hearing this, I sneered and looked at her disdainfully,
"Lily, hasn't my father treated you well all these years?"
"My father saw your family was poor and funded your education. After your parents died, he even took you into our home to raise you."
"Although you're nominally a maid in our house, neither my father nor I have ever made you do any dirty or tiring work. But instead of being grateful, you constantly stir up trouble!"
"As for Liam, if he truly loves you, he would give up everything to be with you! Not cling to my family's power!"
My words made Lily stagger back a few steps,
"No... that's not true... Liam loves me! He said you forced him. If he doesn't marry you, your father will kill him."
I scoffed. "What kind of person is my father? Don't you know? He's kind to everyone in the pack. How could he force Liam to marry me?"
Lily's expression suddenly changed, her eyes turning vicious:
"You're lying! I'll prove Liam's love for me!"
With that, she pulled a dagger from her pocket and stabbed her own arm, then let out a piercing scream.
I watched, dumbfounded.
Again? How long was she going to keep playing this framing game?!
If it weren't for the fact that her father had once been a werewolf warrior who sacrificed himself for our pack, I would have expelled her from the pack long ago!
Several werewolf warriors rushed in upon hearing the sound. Lily stared at me intently, her voice weak:
"Nova, why are you doing this to me!"
Seeing this scene, Liam immediately flew into a rage and slapped me across the face.
But the next second, he was pinned to the ground by the other werewolf warriors.
"Liam, are you crazy? You actually hit Nova! If Alpha Bruce sees this, you're finished!"
Lily was sent to the hospital, and Liam also regained his sanity after the others' persuasion.
The banquet began. The hall was packed with people.
My father took my hand and went on stage. "Today, I've gathered everyone here to announce some good news. Tonight, my daughter Nova will be engaged to one of the werewolf warriors present!"
"Her fiancé is..."
"Wait!"
Just as everyone held their breath in anticipation, Liam interrupted my father.
Everyone turned their gaze to Liam. My father's face was full of anger.
But Liam remained unfazed: "Alpha Bruce, I don't like Nova at all. Even if you punish me today, I won't be engaged to her!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a commotion arose in the hall.
"What's going on here?"
"Alpha Bruce's daughter is being rejected in public!"
......
My father laughed coldly, and the air instantly filled with a chill:
"My daughter's chosen fiancé was never you, Liam, but Sawyer!"
At these words, the entire hall fell silent.
No one expected that the fiancé I chose was actually Sawyer!
