Chapter48.
“Heh…” I laughed coldly. “First, I don’t forgive you. I’ve already called the Pack Enforcer. Second, you’ll be disappointed. Last night, a kind person saved me, so the people you hired didn’t succeed. I won’t get sick, and I won’t die. But you! Will go to jail!”
Tanner, who had just been sincerely repentant and crying, froze instantly. The remorse, sadness, and apology on her face peeled away like wall paint, revealing the dark and ugly core within. Jason’s eyes brightened. He walked to me in a few steps.“Really? Really?”
I didn’t look at him.
Seeing Jason’s reaction, Tanner’s voice became sharp and ghostly,“That’s impossible! That hotel is notoriously private, the room was so secluded, no one would ever go there! Who could have saved you? Who would save you? Sent by the Luna Goddess, huh?”
I said, “If you insist on calling him sent by the Luna Goddess, then yes, he’s quite godlike.”
The scent of his palms, the way he gently told me I was safe – to me, he was sent by the Luna goddess, tall, handsome, and radiant.
Tanner said, “I don’t believe you. There’s no such person. You just don’t want Jason to think you’re impure.”
I scoffed coldly, “I don’t need him to think anything. If I was assaulted, the dirty, guilty ones aren’t me, but those people and you, the mastermind!”
Tanner was stunned, her expression turning furious, “Don’t say useless things. You said there was someone, right? Call him out! Summon your god! Let everyone see who this holy person is!”
I remained silent. I couldn’t mention Xander. Someone of his stature certainly wouldn’t want to be involved in this messy drama, and how could I repay kindness with treachery and cause trouble for him?
“Can’t you say it? I knew you were lying!” Seeing my silence, Tanner became even more aggressive.
The light in Jason’s eyes began to dim again. He didn’t stop Tanner’s questioning, because he also wanted to know…
“I’m not sent by the Luna Goddess, but a normal werewolf who saved her.”
A calm, deep voice came from the end of the crowd of guests.
Everyone turned their heads.
They saw a strikingly handsome man who had somehow entered, his demeanor and bearing simply exquisite. Someone recognized him and exclaimed, “It’s Xander Shaw!”
“Which Xander Shaw?”
“There aren’t many Xander Shaws in MoonCloud Pack! Are you stunid>”

“Oh
my god, the alpha Shaw Family’s Xander! The alpha of the MoonCloud Pack! Why is he here… wait, what did he just say?”

The banquet hall was abuzz.
Xander would never attend such an event; the Winter family lacked the clout to invite him. Yet, he was undeniably here, and combined with his words… everyone gasped. So, he was the one who saved Sophia? He came specifically for her? Is Sophia a natural–born magnet for powerful
men!!
The expressions and moods of the Winter and Cooper families were equally complex. Jason stared at Xander, his dark eyes filled with hostility. A man’s intuition about a rival… Tanner had never met Xander, but she knew the Shaw Family and the man’s influence. She looked at me with hatred. This woman had already hooked another big fish! The imbalance in her heart was unbearable! Tanner’s wolf was about to be mad, “WHAT A SHAMELESS BITCH, ALWAYS FLIRTING WITH ANYONE!”
“Mr. Shaw.” I was a little stunned.
“I happened to be dining here and saw the commotion, so I came in to take a look,” Xander said lightly, as if he were just a passerby who had finished his meal and was taking a stroll.
He put one hand in his pocket, surveying the room. His composure gave off an overwhelming
aura.
