s

Lance realized he had been too harsh with Priscilla and apologized, “Sorry, mom, I raised my voice just now.”

Priscilla replied, “You shouldn’t have shouted at me. If others had seen it, they would have called you unfilial.”

Lance glanced at Adelaide and said after a pause, “I understand.”

Priscilla stopped drinking coffee and returned to her room.

The sky had darkened completely. The cold of the day had subsided, and a warm breeze blew.

The couple strolled hand in hand in the yard.

Lance told Adelaide, “Sidney was buried on Spine Mountain in the Blue Ridge State, with a Luna’s funeral ceremony. In death, she finally received the dignity she deserved as a Luna.”

Due to the freezing rain disaster, neither Adelaide nor Lance attended Sidney’s funeral; they sent Caldwell in their place.

Adelaide said with a heavy heart, “It’s all just a show for others.”

Lance tightened his grip on her hand and said softly, “Don’t be sad. At least you were there for her at the end.”

Adelaide lowered her head and said nothing more.

“Caldwell mentioned that Crispin genuinely cared for Sidney and wept the most at the funeral. Liz and Carla only shed a few tears for show,” Lance added.

Adelaide pictured the sisters‘ faces.

When they had heard of Sidney’s death at the palace, they had shown no reaction at first, as if Sidney had been dead to them for a long time..

Adelaide changed the subject. “I’ve sent an invitation to the Soulrend Pack. I’m visiting Melinda tomorrow.”

“Shall I accompany you?” Lance asked.

Adelaide smiled and replied, “We sisters need to talk privately. Besides, you have work tomorrow.”

“For you, I’d gladly be a ‘negligent official‘ and skip the Ministry of Justice,” Lance said.

Adelaide responded, “No need. I’ve asked Paisley to come with me and brought along Galvin for a health check–up. Dwight’s two breeders have hurt Melinda deeply.”

Lance frowned, harboring no affection for Dwight.

Adelaide suddenly said softly, “Melinda loves Dwight deeply, but her love is unrequited

Lance embraced her and said bravely, “I love you too, and I know I haven’t loved in vain.”

Adelaide rested against his chest. Her body stiffened for a moment, then warmth slowly spread through her heart–why was his chest so warm and solid?

Lance waited for a while, but Adelaide didn’t speak.

He wasn’t disappointed, though. He knew that one day she would truly love him and say those three words.

They had a long life ahead, and he was willing to wait.

The next day, Adelaide, accompanied by Paisley and Galvin, visited the Soulrend Pack with rich gifts.

The pack’s Luna, Chloe, along with members of the Alpha family, greeted them at the door.

As the heir of the Soulrend Pack, Dwight, with his prestigious background and handsome appearance, was indeed the object of many she–wolves‘ admiration.

Adelaide, as the Luna of the Blackthorn Pack, was received with the highest honors.

It was said that Alpha Manfred had several breeders, but he did not make an appearance today.

Only the mates of the Santos family members and their children came out to receive the guests.

Luna Chloe, around forty years old and somewhat plump, exuded the shrewdness and tact of a pack Luna in her movements.

The younger members of the Soulrend Pack came out one by one to pay their respects. Adelaide personally presented gifts and chatted with them warmly before Chloe dismissed the children.

At that moment, Adelaide’s gaze fell on Melinda.

In the early stages of her pregnancy, her figure had not yet changed significantly, but she sat on the side with red eyes, looking noticeably thinner.

Adelaide felt a pang of heartache.

Chloe, noticing this, smiled and said, “Since Melinda became pregnant, she’s had a poor appetite, vomiting after everything she ate. It’s only improved a little these past few days.”

Adelaide knew that Melinda, in her pregnancy, required extra care, both physically and emotionally.

Chloe appeared shrewd, but her gaze on Melinda was somewhat gentle. However, it was unclear whether this kindness was genuine.

At this moment, a accompanying lady laughed and said, “Because Melinda is pregnant, the pack has forbidden the consumption of mutton. The smell makes her nauseous.”

This was meant to show that the entire pack was accommodating Melinda and would not neglect her.

“Yes, everyone avoids the gamey smell. But breeder Willow loves roasted mutton. Dwight dines with her daily. Afterward, citing the gamey odor on him, he avoids Melinda,” another added.

Chloe shot her a harsh glance, and she realized her indiscretion, quickly falling silent.

Adelaide glanced at Melinda, noticing her tears on the verge of falling.

She sighed inwardly but feigned ignorance of the comment.

Adelaide announced, “I’ve brought a physician today, a subordinate of Doctor Digby, to examine Melinda and check on the fetus.”

Hearing she was associated with Digby, Chloe immediately rose, bowed, and said earnestly, “Thank you, Doctor.”

Galvin returned the courtesy, sat beside Melinda, and opened her medical kit to take out a stethoscope.

She disinfected the stethoscope’s chest piece with an alcohol swab, then gently pressed it against Melinda’s abdomen to listen to the fetal heartbeat.

She then took Melinda’s blood pressure and reviewed her recent diet and sleep patterns in her medical records.

“The fetal heartbeat is slightly rapid, and her blood pressure is a bit low,” Galvin said, removing the stethoscope and tapping her fingers on the records.

“She’s clearly anxious, and these mood swings are causing an unstable pregnancy. Is she currently taking prenatal vitamins?”
