Preston threw the golf club to the side and forwarded the video to Griffon.
[Look at this bullshit.]
Griffon was distracted by his phone vibrating in the middle of a meeting.
When he picked it up and saw the video, his jaw clenched and he glowered at the phone.
Was Taya trying to provoke him, or did she like Jackson so much that she couldn’t leave him alone?
That she dared to ignore his warning and was with Jackson made his blood boil.
Her disobedience was completely unacceptable, and there was no way his wolf would allow him to let it go unchecked.
Without a word, he picked up his phone, got up, and left.
The people in the conference room were stunned when they saw the Alpha suddenly leave, and with a terrifying expression on his face on top of it.
Then, they all looked sympathetic at the shifter presenting his report.
Everyone felt that Mr. Chilton must have offended Alpha Knight due to negligence in his work.
Mr. Chilton, covered in a cold sweat, thought, “I’m done. I’m going to be fired! Or even worse, banished from the pack.
Th Wilton pack banquet was held in the pack manor mainly to celebrate the return of the youngest daughter of the Wilton pack Alpha after finishing her studies.
Jackson typically would not have attended an event like this.

He asked her to hold his arm, and he led her into the manor.
The people who came in were all rich and about the same as the Wilton pack.
The older ones drank wine and talked business in the banquet hall.
The younger ones held glasses of wine laced with wolfsbane and gathered outside in small groups.
After Jackson and Taya entered, they drew the stares of
everyone.
Those who knew and those who didn’t all cast amazed looks at
them.
The next Alpha of the Wilton pack, Henry Wilton, was chatting with a few young she-wolves when he heard quite a commotion outside. Only then did he realize that Jackson was here, and he hurriedly
greeted his friend.
“Jackson, you’re here,” he said with a warm smile. When Henry’s gaze landed on Taya, he paused for a moment. “Who is this?”
“This is Ms. Taya Palmer.”
Henry seemed to be deep in thought. He glanced at Ta
