Chapter 571
“I love you,” I told her, hugging her back as more tears spilled down my cheeks.
It was Nan’s turn to hug me so tightly like she was afraid I’d disappear at any moment.
“Call me as soon as you land,” she whispered before pulling back
“I will,” 1 assured her.
She blinked away the tears and stepped back just as my section was called.
“Tell Irene I’m sorry,” I told her. I hadn’t told anyone that I was leaving, other than my parents and Nan. I’m sure Chester was already aware by now as well, but I didn’t have the heart to actually say goodbye to anyone.
With my graduation, my contract as Matt’s tutor had come to an end. It stated that I would remain his tutor until I graduate, now the contract doesn’t apply to me. I didn’t have the heart to say goodbye to him either. I knew he’d be gutted to find me gone… but it was better this way. A silent goodbye.
I turned on my heel and headed towards the gates. I looked back once more, smiling at my family and giving them a short wave before I turned for the final time and headed off to start my new life.
Third Person POV
“She’s on her way here as we speak,” Alpha Levi said into the phone. “You’ve done well, Lila. Pretty soon, we will be able to take over the company completely. Gavin will be so distracted by everything going on around him, he won’t even see it coming.”
Rachel, aka Lila, laughed bitterly into the phone.
“He’s so stupid. He doesn’t expect a single thing. You should have seen the look on Judy’s face when I told her we were getting married. She was gutted. I’m glad she’s out of the picture now, though. It’ll make things much easier with Gavin.”
“Remember what I said, he’s not allowed to touch you. I won’t allow it,” Levi said, his tone dark on the phone.
“Baby, you know I’d never let another man, other than a human, touch me. I hate that I’m pregnant with someone else’s baby,” Rachel said, scowling. “But thankfully, it was only a human, so it doesn’t mean anything.”
Levi growled lightly.
“I still don’t like that his hands were on you. I’ve already sent someone to kill him.”
Rachel chuckled.
“You didn’t have to do that. I could have done that myself,” she replied simply.
“You should have done that after you fucked him.”
“I didn’t want to leave a trail,” she muttered. “So, tell me, my darling, what’s your plan for Judy? I can’t imagine you are going to be treating her well while she’s residing with you. Will you?”
“We got a condo for her to live in. We’ll let her get settled in, have her be preoccupied with work and responsibilities, and then we will slowly chip away at her. We will break her and eventually she will spill even more secrets to us,” he explai “I already have some inside men on the ready for when she arrives. She’s not even going to know what hit her.”
Rachel laughed with glee.
“I can’t wait. Please keep me updated-‘

Just then, the door of the hospital room slammed open, leaving a crack on the wall as Gavin stood before her. Rachel’s eyes widened in shock, and her heart leaped into her throat.
“What’s that?” Levi asked. “What just happened?”
“Let me call you back,” Rachel said as she hung up the phone. “Gavin, what’s wrong?”
Gavin looked furious, and it was clear his wolf was on the surface, ready to be ripped free from his human form, Rachel’s heart was racing rapidly in her chest, ‘and her hands trembled as she clutched the thin blanket that covered her.
“You lying bitch,” Gavin seethed, making Rache’s jaw drop.
“W…what?” she asked, panic striking.
Did he somehow find out about her plan?
“That baby isn’t mine,” he growled, nearly shaking the entire hospital room. “And you drugged me.”
“I… I…” She was at a loss for words. How the fuck did he find out this information? She made sure any traces of evidence were
gone.
Before she could even fully reply, he was standing over her, his hand wrapped around her throat as he fought to keep control of himself.
“What the fuck did you say to her??” Gavin growled.
“W…what?” Rachel croaked, trying desperately to draw breath as she struggled against his hold.
‘At the hotel suite. I saw you talking to Judy in the doorway,” Gavin said, his temper past the point of no return. “What did you say to her to make her leave? What did you say to hurt her??”
