Chapter 238: The Alpha’s Judgment
Chapter 238: The Alpha’s Judgment
(Connor’s POV)
I tilted my head slightly, my ice–blue eyes as cold and sharp as a blade. “Your apology lacks sincerity.”
Victoria Sterling was so frightened that tears welled up in her eyes. Crying, she said to Olivia, “I was wrong, Miss Winters, I was really wrong. Please forgive me, I shouldn’t have slandered you, I shouldn’t have publicly humiliated you. Please give me a chance to turn over a new leaf.”
Her voice cracked with desperation. The pathetic display only disgusted me further.
My wolf snarled at her weakness. True wolves faced consequences with dignity, not this sniveling performance.
Olivia’s amber eyes were icy cold. “Post a three–thousand–word apology statement on all your social media platforms, pin it to the top for a month, and compensate me with $100,000 for emotional distress.”
Victoria’s face paled. Her expression showed clear unwillingness despite her tears.
“Miss Winters, I have hundreds of thousands of followers on social media platforms like Howlr and
PackShare. I usually rely on advertising revenue to support myself. If I post this, my image will collapse…”
“So you’re unwilling?” Olivia looked at her coldly.
Victoria bit her lower lip, looking pitiful. “It’s not that I’m unwilling, but this kind of apology is really too much
to ask. You’re asking me to ruin my career.”
At this moment, someone from the crowd of elite werewolves said, “Miss Winters, her online persona is that
of a highly educated, wealthy overseas returnee.”
The revelation drew murmurs of disgust from the watching pack members. They despised false personas among their kind.
Olivia said coldly, “If you don’t want to apologize this way, you also have other options.”

Victoria’s eyes flashed with a hint of joy. “Thank you, Winters, I knew you would…”
Before she could finish, Olivia said, “Then let’s go through legal proceedings.”
Victoria’s face froze. The hope died in her eyes instantly.
The surrounding pack members started talking again. Some werewolves whispered, “The Winters pack daughter is so kind, if it were me, I would definitely publicly humiliate her back.”
“Kind?” Another person said, “I think/Miss Winters‘ move is quite ruthless, directly ruining Victoria’s career.”
“That’s not necessarily true. You don’t understand the internet enough. The internet has no memory, and you underestimate Victoria’s shamelessness. Once the heat dies down, she will definitely shamelessly come out to make money again.”
“Yes, I agree with what she said, the internet just has no memory.”
Victoria’s eyes darted around, weighing the pros and cons in her mind. If she went through legal proceedings, with the strength of the Rivers and Winters packs, she would probably not only have to issue an apology and,

pay compensation.
Cluse
She might even face pack exile or worse. Compared to losing her pack status, it would be better to let her persona collapse.
Victoria quickly made a choice. She hardened her heart and said, “Miss Winters, I agree to the apology method you mentioned.”
Brandon Cole saw that Olivia was much easier to talk to than me. He turned to Olivia and apologized
desperately.
“Miss Winters, I know I was wrong too. Like her, I will post an apology statement on social media, and I will compensate you with $200,000 for emotional distress.”
Olivia’s gaze was like a knife as she glanced at Brandon. “You?”
Olivia remembered very clearly the excessive things Brandon had said that day in the shopping center. Her wolf bristled with remembered anger.
Just then, someone from Brandon’s former circle in Shadowmere Territory spoke up. Wanting to curry favor with us, he loudly said, “Alpha Connor, Miss Winters, you must not let Brandon off so easily. He has been looking for people to investigate Miss Winters for the past few days, and he has threatened to find someone
to assault her.”
As soon as the words fell, my eyes darkened with Alpha fury. The temperature around us seemed to drop ten
degrees.
Immediately, my security enforcers stepped forward and pinned Brandon to the yacht’s deck. Their movements were swift and brutal.
“I didn’t, it’s a misunderstanding! Miss Winters, Alpha Connor, there’s a huge misunderstanding here!” Brandon’s face was pressed to the deck.
“I didn’t know you were the daughter of the Winters pack in Riverdale, if I had known, I wouldn’t have dared to
say that!”
“So you mean packless wolves deserve to be insulted by you?” Olivia’s voice was very cold.
“No, I didn’t mean that!” Brandon’s voice was muffled against the deck.
Someone in the crowd said, “That’s exactly what he meant! Brandon is a notorious second–generation heir in Shadowmere, and many female wolves have suffered at his hands.”
“Yes, Brandon loves to bully the weak, don’t let him go.”
Olivia sneered, looking down at Brandon, her eyes icy cold. “Is that so?”
Brandon said anxiously, “No! Don’t listen to their nonsense, they are all cowards kicking someone when
they’re down!”
Olivia coldly curled her lips. “I will have my pack investigators look into this thoroughly.”
Just then, my phone rang. I glanced at the caller ID and answered immediately.
The person on the other end spoke in a very serious tone. “Alpha, Brandon Cole, the disgraced heir of the Cole pack in Shadowmere, has been investigating Miss Winters. He also contacted some rogue werewolves, gave them Miss Winters‘ photo, and paid them substantial money to ‘entertain‘ Miss Winters well. The rogue pack

leader called me as soon as he saw the photo.”
The person paused, hesitating. They seemed afraid to continue speaking.
My patience ran out. “Speak.”
The person’s voice clearly lowered. “The rogue leader told me that Brandon wanted to find ten rogues… to assault her… and finally throw her into the ocean to feed the sharks…”
The person on the other end only dared to pick out the key words. Their tone trembled, afraid that if they repeated the complete words to me, they would immediately lose their lives.
Claim ?
My knuckles turned white. My Alpha presence radiated deadly menace as I looked down at Brandon on the
deck as if he were already a dead wolf.
Brandon felt the murderous intent emanating from me. His heart filled with terror, his face turned even paler
as his wolf cowered in submission.
Hanging up the phone, I coldly ordered my enforcers. “Throw him overboard.”
Three words made Brandon’s whole body go weak. Cold sweat trickled down his back like ice water.
“Alpha Connor, please, please let me go…” His voice broke with terror.
The crowd of werewolves gasped. Without another word, the enforcers dragged Brandon toward the yacht’s
railings.
My words, like a frozen Alpha
mate.
Cree, sealed Brandon’s fate. There would be no mercy for threats against my
Olivia turned to look at me, frowning slightly. “Who called just now?”
I gently pulled Olivia into my arms, embracing her with protective Alpha instincts. “It’s nothing, with me here,
nothing will happen to you.”
The enforcers dragged Brandon to the railings on the deck. They threw him into the ocean like discarded
prey.
Many pack members went out to watch. Brandon’s screams pierced the night air as he hit the dark waters
below.
The commotion was so great that Miranda Blackwood, who was still busy upstairs in her private suite, heard the disturbance. She quickly ran downstairs to investigate.
On the deck, the crowd was congested. Everyone gathered by the railings watching the struggling and flailing
Brandon in the dark waters.
Squeezing through the crowd of elite werewolves, Miranda ran over. She asked anxiously, “What happened?”
