Chapter 3
“You’re right about one thing!” Olivia laughed arrogantly, her voice thick with smug satisfaction. “Ethan loves me deeply. He’s already promised that our first pup will take my last name. That’s the real difference between being loved and being discarded. You’ve spent years crawling at his feet, and still, you’re not even worth a single hair on my head.”
Even the guests in the room couldn’t help but snicker, as if they’d just heard the punchline of a cruel joke.
“Elena still thinks she’s like everyone else, clinging to the Alpha family like some
parasite, thinking the pup should inherit the father’s name?”

ridiculous thing in the world.
Olivia sneered, her voice oozing with disdain. “Stop putting on a show, you pathetic omega. You’ve crossed the Alpha family, and not only have you been stripped of your power, but no one in this pack will even look at you. Your good days are over.”
The onlookers shook their heads, clicking their tongues in mockery. Whispers ran through the room, saying I could have quietly walked away with a generous settlement, but now, I had nothing. I’d ruined my own future.
But I didn’t flinch. I stood taller, my spine straight, exuding an unwavering confidence.
I scanned the room, locking eyes with every guest present.

deserves to be cast out?”
They weren’t strangers to me; these were long–time partners, the ones who had built a strong, trusting relationship with the Silverfang Pack.
Ethan had always been nothing more than the Alpha’s heir, living a life of luxury and indulgence. The pack’s business had never mattered to him. It had always been his father’s responsibility. But when it was handed over, it came to me.
Many of the people here barely knew who Ethan was, but they knew me. They were familiar faces, trusted allies.
Some of their companies had once depended on me for their survival. I saw opportunities where others saw dead ends, I extended my hand when they needed it

most, and forged partnerships that had pulled them from the brink of collapse.
One of them had once told me, tears in his eyes, “You’re like a second mother to me.”
There had been others who’d looked down on me in the beginning, thinking I was just an omega climbing the social ladder through marriage. But after countless collaborations, they had no choice but to admit my worth. Many of them had even become my closest allies.
As for those who once bent over backward to please me, hoping for my support–there were too many to count.
But now, those familiar faces either looked away from me or met my gaze with open contempt.

“Elena, don’t look at me like that. If you’d just quietly leave the Silverfang Pack, maybe I’d show you some respect and throw you a bone.”
“Your abilities are impressive, but you’re way too full of yourself. There’s plenty of talent around here, and none of us are willing to cross the Alpha family. Don’t expect me to take your side. Who the hell do you think you are?”
“You’re finished in this pack. Maybe next time, try learning some humility or go suck another man dry. Seems like that’s what you’re best at, huh?”
A loud burst of mocking laughter rippled through the banquet hall, cruel and unrestrained.

“You useless parasite! Are you planning on clinging to me forever?”
Olivia finally snapped. She couldn’t hold herself back any longer. Furious, she ground her teeth and spat, “Ethan already dumped you! This is high society now, and you’re nothing but an omega!”
