Chapter 157: Chapter 157
“We didn’t get a chance to meet her, Arti,” Caroline replied, kicking her heels out of her feet in anger. “You can thank dad for that. Throughout the time, he was there hidden. Neither did he meet her, nor could we. I’m so mad at him right now.”
“Then why is Mom happy?” Artemis asked, looking at Sophia, who was smiling. “Mom, are you all right?” He asked her. The last thing either of them wanted was for her to lose her mind.
“Of course I’m. Why won’t I be?” Sophia asked, wiping her happy tears. “She achieved her dream, and now, she will enter into a new phase of her life with her mate. I don’t see any reason to stay sad.” She explained, taking everything in a positive way. All these years, Brandon had kept his eyes on Liara, keeping a recording of her, even though he stayed acting at her. And he was over the moon with the part that Theodore and Liara weren’t in touch other than by phone.
Not once Theodore visited her either to meet her or to take her with him on vacation. Liara had to spend her vacation working in the hospital as an intern, and Brandon really wished that Theodore and Liara’s relationship wouldn’t work out.
Or Theodore wasn’t in contact with Liara because he didn’t want her now after all; she didn’t have the surname of HAYSBERT and many more irrelevant things. At the same time, Sophia wished to Moon Goddess to ignore all of Brandon’s prayers and keep them together.
And today, after finally knowing that they are together and still in love. She was glad that her prayers were heard. Nothing could be more painful for Liara if Theodore wouldn’t have been there for her.
“Let my boring ass fumed in anger and burn in jealousy with Theo's presence by Lee’s side as long as my daughter is happy. I’m happy. Moreover, it will be great that now they both will spend some time together without any family issues by their side.”
“Does that mean you are okay to stay away from her?” Artemis asked, wondering how she was able to control herself. Hell, he could never stay away from his daughter by not talking to her for around two years.
“I’m not okay. But at the same time, I can’t change the fact that Lee hurt Brandon. For now, I’m thinking as Brandon’s wife, but the moment, the mother in me will lose her mind; I will kick him out of my life if he doesn’t listen to me.” Sophia said to which Artemis chuckled. Obviously, she was the head in charge of the family. “Let Lee enjoy her new phase of life.”

Brandon fumed in anger, recalling Theodore and Liara together. He believed that Theodore was just using his daughter. All this time, Theodore stayed away from her, and when she was about to become a healer, he landed there to show that she was with her. At the same time, his phone rang, and he looked at his display.
‘Mon Amore’
He took a deep breath before receiving the call, “Hey!!”
“You okay? I felt that you’re not.” Sophia said the moment he received the call.
“I’m good. It’s just that I miss you.”
“We were together in the morning, Hunter.” Sophia chuckled.
“Still, I want you beside me.”
“I miss you a lot.”
“Hmm. You miss me more when you’re loaded with a lot of emotions. What happened? Are you regretting that you didn’t go to Lee’s convocation?”
“No,” Brandon replied quickly. He wasn’t regretting it because he was there on his daughter’s special day. The only problem was that even that loser was there.
“Oh!! Our daughter became a healer today. The process was painful for that, but she handled it very well. In fact, throughout the time, she was talking about you. She said that because of you, she was in that position.”
“Don’t tell me that you went there even when I told you not to,” Brandon asked, narrowing his eyes and with a frown on his face.
“Of course not!! Everyone is congratulating Artemis, Steve, and maybe Calvin as well. In short, who are pack werewolves and are aware of Liara being in their relatives or family members.” Sophia replied, to which Brandon gritted his teeth. No one congratulated him. Maybe because in the world he lived, i,e. Between the humans, no one knew what exactly Liara had achieved.
“Oh!!” Brandon muttered. “I will talk to you later. I just received a mail that I need to check and revert it immediately.” he lied to disconnect the call. Sophia chuckled, looking at her phone after Brandon disconnected it.
Brandon received another call in the next few seconds after he disconnected Sophia’s call. “Mon Amore, I’m not lying about work.” He said without looking at the display of his phone.
“Dad, it’s me, Calvin!! Did you hear the news about Lee? I came to know about it from others.” Calvin said, expressing his happiness. “I’m so proud of her. Do you know that there were some people who tried to speak ill about you, but she shut everyone’s mouth by saying something like you are a plant? She is a gardener; no, she is a flower.”
“She didn’t say anything like this.”
“But Alpha Ambrose said….”
“She had said that a small plant could not grow under a big tree’s shade. So, a big tree needs to be cut down up to a certain level so that a small plant can also grow.” Brandon replied. “I mean, she would have said something like this.”
“Really?” Calvin asked in surprise. “How do you know that she said this?”
“Because she is my daughter. I have taught her all those quotes.”
“But dad…” Calvin was about to question him more when the call got disconnected. “Dad? Dad? Are you still there?”
“....”
