Chapter 402
\nMarked By the Pureblood Alpha (Deanna and Luis) novel Chapter 402<\/p>\n
Deanna’s POV:<\/p>\n
Sunlight streamed through the car window as I shifted into a more comfortable position in the back seat of the Rolls-Royce.<\/p>\n
This was the car Luis had specially arranged for my daily outings.<\/p>\n
I unlocked my phone and tapped into the day’s trending headlines.<\/p>\n
Headline: “Bluestone Pack’s Heiress Arrested at Charity Gala on Suspicion of Murder.”<\/p>\n
Reporters had swarmed the entrance of the Werewolf Administration Bureau, digging for more details and updates.<\/p>\n
That very night, members of Bluestone Pack and their lawyers arrived at the Bureau one after another, offering an enormous bail in an attempt to secure Jennifer’s release.<\/p>\n
The enforcement team captain responded in an interview, “To keep this case transparent and fair, we won’t be granting Jennifer bail until we’ve got the full truth.”<\/p>\n
I casually sent a screenshot to Violet.<\/p>\n
She replied almost immediately.<\/p>\n
“Thumbs up. Your Alpha is badass!”<\/p>\n
I exited the chat and kept scrolling.<\/p>\n
Soon, another piece of news caught my eye\u2014this one related to the Mooncrown Corporation, the corporate summit.<\/p>\n
I tapped into a video.<\/p>\n
The entrance of the Mooncrown Corporation headquarters was surrounded by a dense crowd.<\/p>\n
A male reporter in a white shirt stood at the front, microphone in hand, delivering a live broadcast to the camera.<\/p>\n
“Today marks the Mooncrown Corporation’s annual corporate summit. As the only globally listed corporation run by a pureborn werewolf clan in Nordvale, Mooncrown’s financial report has implications for the global economy. Let’s look forward to this year’s figures.”<\/p>\n
The camera panned across the front of the building.<\/p>\n
Luxury cars arrived one after another like a long, gleaming procession as shareholders stepped out, their expressions solemn and restrained.<\/p>\n
Burly werewolf guards stood in precise formation, holding reporters and media well back to maintain order and security.<\/p>\n
Even through the screen, the atmosphere felt grand\u2014and tense.<\/p>\n
“Bryson, don’t worry. I won’t tell Luis.”<\/p>\n
I let go of the handle, my palm damp with sweat. Through the window, I glanced at the car that had sped past\u2014it was already gone.<\/p>\n
It was probably just an aggressive overtake … right?<\/p>\n
Hearing my words, Bryson was nearly in tears with gratitude.<\/p>\n
“Thank you, Ms. Wiley. I promise, it won’t happen again.”<\/p>\n
He restarted the car, driving far more carefully this time.<\/p>\n
I locked my phone screen.<\/p>\n
For some reason, I felt unsettled.<\/p>\n
Just then, my phone chimed softly.<\/p>\n
I unlocked the screen again, and a photo suddenly popped up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-2484","chapter","type-chapter","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter\/2484","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/chapter"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/chapter"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/icuow.top\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2484"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
