Between Silence And Truth
Between Silence And Truth
Taya didn't reply, and after a while, Johnny smiled lightly and said, "Don't worry, my uncle has always been good to me since I was a pup, he won't harm me."
However, Carson, knowing that he was the vice president of the Eurasian Union Chamber of Commerce, still wanted to help
Erebus.
If Johnny found evidence to confirm this, their positions would be hostile.
What Johnny was more concerned about was how to persuade Carson to leave Erebus and how to deal with Erebus's existence.
However, these things had nothing to do with Taya, so he didn't tell her.
Taya's main concern was still Griffon, but Johnny didn't get any information from Carson, so she didn't ask him either.
After a moment of silence, the wardrobe stylist came in with a new dress. Taya asked him to take care of Gigi and then hung up the phone. The stylist quickly helped her change into the latest dress. Taya inherited the excellent genes of the Lawrence pack, with beautiful eyes, rosy cheeks, and a graceful and elegant demeanor. was graceful and elegant, and she looked ethereal in the champagne-colored dress.
When the three Lawrence brothers saw her come out, they all stood up and walked up to her.
"The first time I saw you, I thought you were beautiful, but after dressing up, you are even more stunning," Owen exclaimed.
"It's a pity we didn't grow up together, otherwise, we would have protected you like a porcelain doll," Eugene sighed.
Dylan, on the other hand, remained silent and just watched her
quietly.
When the four siblings stood in front of the mirror, Stephanie approached and said, "Taya, if you're interested, you can work with Eugene as a spokesperson for DK." Taya admired this independent and strong woman and spoke with respect, "My dream is to have a company like yours."
Eugene, leaning casually with his arms crossed, immediately added, "Then you can hire me as a spokesperson in the future. I promise to promote your products."
Taya looked hesitant, "But I'm an architectural designer. I can't just put your picture on every construction site, can I?".
Eugene's smile froze, "I take back what I said."Taya smiled, and this was the first time she had smiled since
coming to Canada. The three Lawrence brothers couldn't help but smile as well.
After the styling was done, it was almost time for the banquet.
The three brothers took Taya back home, and Matty's house had been decorated by the two uncles.
It was all in pink, looking like a birthday party for a little girl, even though she was about to become a mother. The Lawrence pack still treated her like a little girl.
Taya knew they were trying to make up for the lack of her childhood, but as she said, the things she wanted as a pup didn't bring her joy when she finally got them as an adult. Compared to the busy Lawrence pack, she appeared much
calmer, as if she was just waiting for a ceremony to be over so she could return to her own home.
During the banquet, many important people arrived, and Matty introduced Taya to each of them.
Probably informed by Stephanie about her dream, Matty made it clear to everyone that she was an architectural designer.
As a result, many people approached Taya to do design work. was the Lawrence pack's network and resources given to her,and while she didn't plan to use them, she didn't reject them on the spot either.
After introducing her and helping her with resources, Matty took her hand and together they cut a four-tiered cake, symbolizing her successful return to the Lawrence pack. The next step was to go through the family tree.
Matty asked Dylan to go to the study to get the family tree, and after glancing at Taya, Dylan leisurely went upstairs.
He quickly took the family tree and handed it to Matty, who, in front of everyone, opened it up.
River picked up a gold-plated pen and wrote Sumasa's name on the family tree, followed by Rosalie, and then Taya.
After he finished, Matty suddenly looked at Taya, who was standing quietly beside him, and asked, "Is your sister's named Grace?"
Taya nodded without saying anything.
Matty, seeing that she didn't object, quickly asked River to write Grace's name on the family tree. After all the pups who had been away from the family were added to the family tree, Matty's face showed a few more
smiles."My daughter and granddaughters have finally returned to the Lawrence pack."
As Matty's voice fell, the whole room erupted into enthusiastic applause.
Hearing the applause, Matty was particularly pleased and invited everyone to have a drink.
Everyone surrounded Matty, congratulating him on finally finding his pups.
Only Taya took a few steps back, withdrawing from the lively crowd.
She walked to a secluded, deserted area and looked up at the starry night sky.
She had always thought that finding her family would make her very happy, but now she only felt lonely.
She thought that if Griffon were by her side, she would happily acknowledge her relatives. Having both family and a loved one by her side would be the happiest thing in the world. "Do you miss him?" Dylan, dressed in a black tailcoat,
with his hands in his pockets, strolled leisurely to her.gaze upward. "The night sky is the same everywhere, but some people can see it, and some people can't..."
For example, Griffon, who was locked up, couldn't see it, which was a bit pitiful and a bit sad.
Taya knew it was Dylan without looking at him, and continued to gaze at the starry sky, responding faintly. "Why doesn't anyone ask Griffon why he's not by my side?"
She had always been puzzled. The Lawrence pack seemed to know in advance that she was unmated, even though only a few people knew about it.
How did the Lawrence pack find out in advance?
Dylan lowered his eyes and glanced at Taya's pure and beautiful face. "If you put the family tree back in the study, you'll know the answer."
After hesitating for a long time, he handed the family tree to Taya. "Don't tell anyone that I asked you to put the family tree back in the study."
Taya, with clear eyes, glanced at the family tree and then at the strange Dylan. "What do you mean?"
Dylan didn't say anything, just placed the family tree in her hand and turned to leave. Halfway there, he stopped under a streetlight and looked at her from the side. Don't blame me."
At that time, he didn't know that Taya was his sister, nor did he know that Griffon was her mated-wolf, so she shouldn't blame him.
Since being chosen by his grandfather, he had lost the ability to choose.
His life was not his own, and he couldn't resist.
But Dylan was very clear that some things would be known sooner or later.
Watching Dylan's mysterious figure, Taya was puzzled, but somehow felt that Dylan wouldn't harm her.
Taya chose to trust Dylan, took the family tree, avoided the crowd, and walked through the side door of the courtyard, up the steps, and towards the upstairs study. She had never been to Matty's study before, and it felt unfamiliar.However, the study was not large, and she could see the bookshelf at a glance.
She found the empty space on the bookshelf, opened the glass door where the family tree was placed, and saw a small box next to it.
The books on Matty's bookshelf were all placed in glass cabinets by series, and even the family tree was placed separately, not scattered around.
Only the small box seemed to be casually thrown there. Taya knew at a glance that this was Dylan's answer to her.
After putting the family tree back, she quickly took out the box and opened it.
As the box unfolded, Taya was astonished to see a familiar golden leaf. In the light, the golden leaf sparkled, but it hurt her eyes.
Taya steadied her torn mind, reached out her fair hand, took out the leaf, and turned it over to the side with the inscription.
On it was a small set of numbers: Erebus-dominate-1-1-
Taya stared at the set of numbers and quickly realized that Matty was the founder of Erebus.
No wonder they never asked Griffon why he wasn't by her side, because they had known where Griffon was all along.It also explained why Dylan never told her what he did; it turned out he was involved in these unspeakable activities.
