When Michael and I finally started to walk back from the clear pond, the sun was already setting. I remembered that the sun had not yet risen when we came here. I couldn’t help but recall what an absurd day we had.
I looked at the clear pond with some nostalgia. Although it was ridiculous, I was pleased today.
Michael noticed my emotions and reached out to touch my head. “If you like this place, we can stay here forever. We don’t have to worry about anything else.”
I shook my head and smiled at Michael. “It’s good here, but it’s only because you’re here. In the future, no matter where we go, as long as you’re there, it’ll be the same.”
Michael looked at me with a surprised expression and said exaggeratedly, ” “My Little Wolf, when did you become so good at sweet talking?”
I tilted my head and glanced at Michael before shamelessly saying, “I’ve always been very good at it.”
I chatted and laughed with Michael along the way. We only saw a short-haired woman greeting Michael when we returned to our place.
I recognized her as Courtney, brother Michael’s wife and the future Queen of the royal Lycan family.
I wasn’t in a good state the last time, so I didn’t have a deep impression of her. Seeing her this time, I found her unusual. She wasn’t very beautiful, but she had a unique temperament.
Courtney exuded a confident charm from the inside out. She was not controlling, but she had a power that made people trust her. Her attitude was very kind, but it was different from Joanna’s fake friendliness. She could make one feel her sincerity, but if one wanted to get any information or secrets from her, she would never reveal them.
Courtney waved the folder in its hand at Michael, then shot me a glance. Right, I nodded my head as a form of greeting.
“What are you doing here?” Michael said in a relaxed tone.
“That’s because you quit your job and left everything to me.” Courtney patted Michael with a folder, and Michael accepted it with a smile.
“I also have a business to attend to.” Michael put his arm around my shoulder and pushed me forward. Here, my mate, Cecily. You didn’t say hello last time you met, but let me formally introduce you this time. My sister-in-law, Courtney, is currently working in the werewolf court.”
“Hello, Cecily.” Courtney sized me up and said, “It seems Michael has already marked you. I knew he should have done it earlier.”
Courtney then turned to look at Michael and said, “What are you so proud of? You should have done this a long time ago, but you dragged it out until now. Is it glorious to put down your work because of this? ”
“Alright, alright, you can leave everything to me now. Is Brandon looking for you all over the world again? He’s too dependent on you. If you’re not by his side, he won’t be able to stay for even a minute,” Michael said.
“Hmph, you little brat, you know he’s like this, and you still dare to throw all your work to me,” Courtney said.
Michael took the folder from Courtney’s hands and flipped through it briefly before saying, ” I see you’ve done most of the work. I’ll interrogate the rest of them and hand them over to the werewolf court. You can go back without worry.”
Courtney nodded and said seriously, “This time, the person behind this is involved with the internal part of the royal Lycan family. I’ll tell Brandon to pay attention to this, so you don’t have to worry. However, I’m still a little worried about the interrogation. I think I should stay here for a while.”
The werewolf hunters were not entirely a criminal organization. Many of them joined with the idea of punishing evil and promoting good. I didn’t think I could watch them be destroyed.
Michael frowned and said, “If you stay here any longer, I’m afraid Brandon will go crazy. I’ll pay attention to everything you say. You don’t have to worry about the werewolf hunters. Father has always wanted to bring them under control, not annihilate them.”
Courtney raised an eyebrow and said, “You think I’m afraid of him? I can stay here as long as I want.”
Michael sighed and helplessly said, “You’re not afraid of him, but he’s my older brother. I’ve brought Cecilia back this time, and I still need his help with many things. What if he takes his anger out on me because you don’t go back? Can’t you just help me?”
I looked at their conversation in surprise.
From their conversation, I roughly knew that this person called Brandon was Michael’s older brother, who would inherit the throne in the future. Courtney was Brandon’s wife.
However, between Brandon and Courtney, the one who wore the pants was Courtney instead, not Brandon, who would inherit the throne of the royal family’s King.
This made Michael, usually proud, appear at a disadvantage in front of Courtney.
Courtney smiled slightly and turned her gaze to me. In an amiable tone, she said, “You look very surprised by me. Is Michael always showing off in front of you?”
