Toby smiled at Gloria's words. He thought that Gloria was indeed much more interesting than Lillian.
"I've heard that you love money very much." Gloria lowered her head without any reply. Everyone knew she loved money very much. Gloria curled her lips into an unfathomable smile. She looked up and said, "Yes, and that's why I agreed to risk my life to do it." "Alright! Four hundred thousand dollars! Deal!" Toby smiled, his eyes shining. Gloria was ugly but indeed very special. Gloria was thrown into the container. She wrapped herself tightly in her clothes and wouldn't take them off. The water was already above her head. Her clothes, soaked to the skin, grew heavier and dragged her down further. In the beginning, Gloria could still open her eyes and watch the werewolves standing in front of the transparent container and staring at her amusingly. Toby looked gentle with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. But at this mLillian looked at the scene in horror. She was shocked and terrified. Lillian fell to the floor in a panic. Her limbs were cold as she looked in horror at Gloria, who was in the rectangular container. She didn't know whether Gloria was still alive or not. Patrick would occasionally show up at Fittro Club. She did not know who he was before. However, she knew from Toby's plea to Patrick that Patrick was the mysterious Mr. Hammond, the man behind Fittro Club. After finding out who Patrick was, Lillian was overwhelmed by fear. She hoped that nothing would happen to Gloria. In such a case, she would not be punished. Yet at the same time, she also hoped that Gloria could just die. What if Gloria woke up and told Patrick, the owner of Fittro Club? Seeing that Patrick was so anxious, Lillian immediately struggled to get up. Then she stumbled to Patrick's side. She pretended to be concerned and said to Patrick, "Mr. Hammond, your hand is bleeding. You must do something about i
Patrick held Gloria's hand. His anger was soothed, and he became calm. For some reason, he felt warm. He didn't know how long had passed. Finally, she coughed a few times. As she spat out water, she coughed again. Gloria opened her eyes, which were both sore and painful. Her vision was blurry, and she couldn't see the face of the person in front of her. She moved her lips and said, "Money." Patrick looked indescribably excited. Seeing her lips move, he quickly asked, "What did you say?" Gloria's pale lips moved slightly. She said with difficulty, "Mr. Terry, my money." All of a sudden, the air froze. It was as if someone hit the pause button. The excitement in Patrick's eyes vanished in an instant, replaced by indifference. He said, "How much?" His voice regained its usual coldness. "Mr. Terry, you promised that you would pay me 400 thousand dollars for my performance." Gloria did not see the person in front of her clearly. Yet, the sense of being near him s
Patrick's words were like a poisonous arrow that shot straight into her heart. She felt a pain she had never felt before. Gloria subconsciously wanted to raise her hand to cover her chest. Her hand went up into the air, but it dropped again to her thigh. She managed to stay rational. "Mr. Hammond, you're right. My life is worthless." He was the one who said that her life was worthless and that she should go to hell. However, when she repeated his words, Patrick felt a sudden irritation for no reason. Patrick shouted roughly, "Follow me!" He turned around and left. Gloria followed him in silence. Patrick walked fast. Gloria tried her best to keep up with him. Gloria felt as if her bones were cracking and the pain was unbearable. A cold sweat broke out on her forehead, but as her body was wet from head to toe, it was impossible to tell whether it was sweat or water, although she was drenched in a cold sweat. Patric
Patrick looked at Gloria, who was lying on the bed. The expression on her face showed that she had given up her life. Even though Patrick was grabbing her neck, she did not resist. Patrick felt a sharp pain in his heart. Leo roared angrily in his mind. Leo began to fight for control of his body. It wanted to take over Patrick's body. It could not allow Patrick to hurt their mate. Patrick endured the pain and continued to pinch Gloria's neck. He shouted angrily, "Why don't you fight back! Why!" Did she want to die so badly? No! She cared so much about Mike. Would she rather die than beg for mercy? Patrick didn't realize that he was jealous of Mike. He went mad, like a boy desperately trying to get his favorite toy. Even though hurting Gloria made him feel agonized, he seemed to want her to give in. He did not realize that he didn't want Gloria to struggle, or beg for mercy. What he wanted was her loyalty. Patrick wanted
"I deserve this punishment," Gloria said calmly. She did not doubt it because of Sean's words. It was as if she had accepted her fate. Sean was very shocked. He had known Gloria since he was a child. Black Thorn Pack and Silver Spring Pack were adjacent to each other, and Silver Spring Pack was also very powerful. As the daughter of Alpha, Gloria had every reason to be proud. She was once flamboyant and happy. She had completed the shift at the age of fifteen, and her wolf was a silvery-white female wolf. Sean remembered that she was confident. The current Gloria, however, seems to have reached the end of her days. She was lifeless and spoke like an old lady over a hundred years old. Sean had seen her kneel to Patrick, but when he was facing this woman, he felt even more shocked. He could feel humbleness in her words. "Do you really think that you deserve all of this, Gloria?" Sean could not help but ask. Gloria
Patrick stood in front of the sofa, pondering over things related to Gloria. Suddenly, he heard light footsteps behind him. Patrick was a werewolf, and he had a keen sense of hearing and smell. Thus, he knew at once that it was Gloria. Patrick turned his head. Seeing how tentative Gloria was, he began to get furious again. His wolf always emphasized that Gloria was their mate, but he never wanted to admit it. He hated to admit that the cowardly, humble woman in front of him was his mate. However, Patrick couldn't manage to ignore the fact that she was standing right there. Also, she could always affect his mood easily. "Stop right there. Where are you going?" said Patrick. "I'm going to work, Mr. Hammond," Gloria replied calmly. She sounded respectful, but Patrick could still sense her stubbornness. "Work? With your current condition? Do you know you almost died just now?" Patrick shouted in anger, again at Glor
Christine immediately sensed something from Leonard's words. After all, she had managed to take a place in Fittro Club for years. Her delicate brows furrowed as she asked, "Hold on. A dangerous job? What are you referring to?" Christine thought, 'Gloria must have lost her mind. She hasn't fully recovered yet, and she has already come back here, asking me for a job. However, I'm not insane or stupid. Who says I'm going to give her what she wants?' Christine said seriously, "I'm not that heartless, OK? She came back before she recovered, but I never gave her any work to do. Well, the only exception is that unfamiliar guest a few days ago. But he didn't give her a hard time." Leonard didn't think Christine was lying. He probed, "You know Toby, from Blue Moon Pack, right?" "Toby? The Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack? Yes, I know him. What about him?" Christine asked in confusion. "He was a guest here today. He was in Room 3 on the third floor." Leo
Christine walked very fast. She soon reached the Public Relations Department's lounge and walked past it toward the manager's office. Her stilettos tapped against the marble tiles, and she looked angry. The staff trembled in fear as they watched Christine walk straight toward her destination. She kicked the office door open, making a huge noise. Christine roared furiously, "Emily, I want an explanation!" Emily was startled. She looked at Christine, who appeared out of the blue, and asked, "Christine, what's going on?" Christine walked into the office and slammed the door shut, blocking those probing gazes. She stood at the door with her arms crossed. Looking at Emily coldly, she said, "Who said you could arrange work for Gloria? Don't you know that she is still sick? Did you have my permission?" Emily felt relieved and dissatisfied when she heard that Christine was here for Gloria. Emily said, "Christine, I'm the manager of t
