On the way to the hospital, Janiya was crying pitifully in my arms. Her face was twisted in pain, which made me feel sorry for her.
She looked terrible. The wedding dress she was wearing was stained red with blood.
“What happened exactly?” I asked, looking at the gash on her arm. “It’s all Debra’s fault. She pushed me on purpose!” Janiya pouted, looking up at me with grievance in her eyes. “I just wanted to patch things up with her, so I invited her to come with me to the bridal shop. But when I told her that we were getting married, she suddenly pushed me!”
Janiya’s eyes were filled with hatred and anger as she recounted what happened. Recalling what I saw when I entered the bridal shop just now, I pictured a different story. Debra’s face was full of panic and worry, and she looked very pitiful. It made me want to hug her and tell her that everything was going to be okay.
“Caleb, don’t Listen to her bullshit!” Damien, my wolf, couldn’t stand it anymore. “Debra would never do such a thing! She is your mate. Moon Goddess chose her for you! It’s obvious that Janiya’s making things up!”
Indeed, I didn’t believe that Debra would hurt anyone for no reason. So when Janiya was finished talking, I replied perfunctorily, “I see.” “Debra’s so mean. You have to punish her for me!” Janiya spat angrily. Damien was fed up with her. “Janiya always slanders others to manipulate you. Don’t listen to her!”
I found the whole situation ridiculous, but I pretended to be serious and found an excuse to refuse Janiya. “Debra works for Adam, and I need this cooperation with him. We can’t afford to offend him.”

“What are so you afraid of?” Janiya sneered. “My family has already reached an agreement with Adam. He wouldn’t go back on his word for a stupid secretary. Don’t worry, honey.”
My expression darkened. I was keenly aware of the Barton family’s ambition.
I looked at Janiya coldly. “Your family and Adam already have an agreement? That’s interesting. It sounds Like that your family already planned this whole thing just so I could marry you. Is it so that there will be a Luna in the Barton family? After all, that’d make your family even more powerful.”
ALL the color drained from Janiya’s face. “What? That’s not true!” “Really?”
I smiled at her calmly. Janiya’s flustered reaction confirmed my suspicion. It seemed that I had to be more careful moving forward.
When we arrived at the hospital, I let the doctor treat her wound.
“It’s just a minor cut, so it won’t scar. Just be careful not to aggravate the pain,” the doctor said.
However, Janiya Looked dissatisfied with this prognosis. She seemed to be worried that I’d Leave as soon as she was patched up, so she kept crying, “Honey, it hurts so much! Can you stay here with me?”
Janiya was a terrible actress, but I didn’t bother to expose her. It was kind of fun to watch her try to put on an act.
“Okay, I’UL stay.”
I sat down in the Lounge chair in the ward. From time to time, I’d yawn in extreme boredom.
After a while, Carlos showed up. He glanced at Janiya, and then said to me, “Can we speak in private? There’s something I have to tell you.”
“can’t you say it here?” Janiya asked, Looking at me with an aggrieved expression.
Carlos looked at her, a flicker of annoyance flashing in his eyes. “Caleb and I need to talk about something confidential. Worry about your recovery and quit prying.”
Although Janiya was very unhappy, she didn’t seem to want to provoke
