Chapter 104
“Allison, you should stay away from him. Why did you refer to him as your friend earlier? He is a bad influencer.”
She heard Alpha Neil’s voice. She wiped the corners of her eyes and turned to him.
“Alpha, he is not a bad person.”
“He is not a bad person? Did you fail to see how he was fighting with Ethan? He did not regard his own father with any kind of respect either.” Alpha Neil’s angry voice echoed throughout the whole garden once again.
“Neil, please calm down. She is right.” Luna Ella said to her husband.
“You are constantly making an effort to cover up your son’s faults. You are more concerned about your son than about your husband.” Luna Ella heaved a sigh as she realized that she was powerless to control Alpha Neil no matter how much she tried.
Allison shot an angry glare at Ethan, who was watching everything that was going on but did not come to put a stop to anything.
Previously, he was a person who was always trying to connect things in the family, but now, because he did not like Ryan any longer, he did not come to solve any problems that were occurring.
‘Everything is your fault.‘ Allison muttered in her head but did not let it out loud to create any
scene. From NôvelDrama.Org.
“Let’s put an end to this and get the party started.” Joey said as the clock struck 12 a.m.
She was only trying to calm the situation down since she did not want to ruin her husband’s special night.
Betw Glen, on the other hand, was not in the mood.
All of them heard what Ethan was saying to Ryan. As soon as they entered the garden, they were able to hear his remarks. Ethan was claiming that he and Allison had a relationship in the past, but Ryan was the reason why Allison broke up with him. It hit his mind, and after that he became furious at Ryan more than before.
“Dad, let’s cut the cake.” Allison said with a lower tone. She had no intention of spoiling her father’s birthday party or her father’s mood. She merely desired for Ryan to have a close relationship with her parents.
As a result, she had completely forgotten that everyone here was a fan of Ethan. So they could not hear anything about him and only thought of Ryan as blameworthy.
‘Who knows where he is? I should call him. But not before Dad cut the cake.‘ She thought as she removed the cake from its packaging and set it atop the shiny golden plate.
When she asked her father about cutting the cake, he did not respond to her, which startled her. She thought he would at least answer her question.
She could see he was very angry at her. She felt a deep–seated sense of dread about it.
Her mother drew her father to the table and coerced him into taking the knife from the place setting.
“Please. Don’t ruin your mood.” She requested him.
“Uncle, for us, please calm down. We are here with you. We are your family, and we always want you to be in good health and have a long life. So for us, please cut the cake. Let’s enjoy your special day.” Ethan spoke to him while standing next to him and smiled.
Allison witnessed the ease with which Ethan was able to alter her father’s disposition. She avoided looking at him and just stood there expressionless.
After cutting the cake, his father left the table without saying a word. He proceeded to walk up to the set couch and sat down.
Her mother took the cake, sliced it up into pieces, and put each one on a separate platter. After that, she distributed the platters to each person.
With the exception of Luna Ella and Allison, everyone went to sit on the couch.
“You supported Ryan a lot today, my dear.” Luna Ella said to Allison, who stood next to her.
Allison turned to Luna Ella. She was still stuck in that situation.
“You are right. He is not a bad person. But he is a stubborn boy. You were able to see his interactions with other people. It is impossible for him and his father to remain in the same location for longer than an hour.”
“Luna, he is not to blame for what happened. It was Ethan’s fault.” She had the courage to say that.
The focus of Luna Ella’s eyes moved to Ethan, who was having a conversation with others. “He loves his brother a lot. He never stops making efforts to keep him safe. However, Ryan never takes anyone else’s advice. To what extent are we able to communicate with him? Ethan also has anger issues like him. But he always kept himself calm in front of others and never showed it to them. It is entirely up to him whether or not he imitates Ryan’s behavior. However, he never does it. So maybe Ryan did something that hurt him, and that’s why he turned against him now.”
Allison was taken aback by Luna Ella’s statements. She regarded her with suspicion as she gazed at her.
‘Does she know about the relationship I had with Ethan? Did he tell his mom about it? Then why didn’t he tell her about the rejection? He should explain the sin he committed too.‘ She thought.
Luna Ella gently rubbed the back of her head. “You are like a daughter to me. Ethan is a perfect boy. He has no flaws in any shape or form. He cares for you a lot. So it would be better if you forgot all your arguments with him and broke your anger for him.”
While listening to Luna Ella, Alison kept her gaze fixed firmly on the ground in front of her. She did not provide a response to her. She saw her going to the couch to join the others.
She took the opportunity and quietly made her way out of the garden. She hurried to her bedroom and locked the door as soon as she got there.
She reached for her phone, which was resting on the bed, and dialed Ryan’s number.
One ring… Two rings… Three rings…
He was not picking up her call. She tried again and again. But Ryan did not receive one.
She walked back and forth in the room. When he left her house, she should have followed after him immediately.
However, if she had done that, her father would have been extremely furious with her. It was actually his birthday today. At that moment in time, she was unable to disobey him.
She tried for the last time. This time, Ryan cut the call. She sat on the bed and stared at her phone.
“Where are you, Ryan?
