Chapter 4

To maintain our public image of a harmonious relationship, I posted a photo of us together on social media.

When it was time to sleep, he really did sleep in the big bed, leaving me alone on the sofa.

He really didn't know how to be considerate. Well, I should be content.

The next morning, I was woken by the sound of Caleb's morning workout.

Early in the morning he was listening to music while doing high-intensity training.

Sweat had already soaked his black tank top, outlining his clearly defined abs and bulging arm muscles. His movements were fluid and full of explosive power, each punch and kick accompanied by the sound of cutting through air.

He had so much more strength than Lucas's thin frame.

"Stop staring. I'm not interested in you."

He suddenly spoke, ending his training.

"Get dressed. Come with me for breakfast."

His subtext was clear: appear together, put on a show for everyone.

Actually, I felt he was quite reasonable. Why did he have such conflict with Violet in the past life?

After getting ready, I went out with Caleb.

As soon as we left, I saw Violet and Lucas walking toward us hand in hand.

Violet wore an overly revealing dress, with marks all over her collarbone and shoulders. She deliberately leaned close to show me.

Her face was full of pride as she looked me up and down.

Seeing that I wore a long-sleeved dress that completely covered my arms and legs, she thought to herself, then smiled smugly.

[Wrapped up so tightly, she must have been beaten and is deliberately hiding the wounds.]

"Lily, how was last night? You didn't..." she deliberately inquired.

I noticed that Luna Anderson was approaching from the other end of the corridor at that moment.

This stern and serious noblewoman most detested improper dress and discussing private matters in public.

But I had no intention of warning her.

I just smiled.

"Violet, according to Pack hierarchy, you should give the Alpha heir's wife proper respect, not casually inquire about my private affairs."

Her face immediately darkened, and she bit her teeth in defiance. "Caleb never made such demands. What right do you have to demand this of me?"

Then she looked at Caleb.

"Caleb, say something."

I could feel the powerful, cold pressure from Caleb beside me spreading bit by bit.

Lucas cursed in his mind: [Damn idiot, see if I don't deal with you tonight!]

Then he tugged Violet's hand, signaling her to stop talking.

But she remained completely unaware of how serious the situation was.

Until Caleb spoke.
