Chapter 109: Scheduled Termination Surgery Arranged

(Aria’s POV)

Because Dr. Nathan Lewis had the call on speaker, the voices from the other end of the line came through with startling clarity. The hospital sounds created a chaotic backdrop of medical equipment beeping and hurried footsteps echoing through corridors.

Amidst the clamor, I keenly picked up Richard Reed’s anxious and questioning tone, obviously directed at Alexander with accusatory fury.

“You clearly knew she had depression and couldn’t handle stimulation, yet you still pressured her like that. Isn’t that asking for her life?” Richard’s voice cracked with what sounded like genuine desperation.

Alexander’s response came swift and cold, cutting through his father’s dramatics.

“Instead of pointing fingers, shouldn’t we contact the media to control this situation? The damage to our pack’s reputation-”

“You feel sorry for Claire now? Richard interrupted, his voice dripping with bitter irony.

Alexander’s silence spoke volumes. Even through the phone, I could sense his confusion and conflicted

emotions.

Richard, clearly flustered, tried to justify his obvious panic.

“I’m

simply concerned as an elder caring for a junior, particularly for my intended daughter–in–law,” he stammered, his voice lacking any conviction.

Olivia and I exchanged knowing glances, both thinking the same word: shameless.

His affair with Claire was basically public knowledge after tonight’s recording, yet he still had the audacity to deny it. Did he need Alexander to literally catch them in bed together to admit the truth?

No, given their thick skin, they’d probably claim they were just innocently chatting under the covers even then. “You never showed such care for Aria,” Alexander’s voice cut through the tension like a blade, cold and

accusing.

This comment seemed to ignite Richard’s fury like a match to dry kindling.

“How dare you mention that she–wolf?” Richard’s roar echoed through the phone speaker, making both Olivia and me flinch.

“If it weren’t for her, how would things have come to this? It’s all because you marked such a worthless she–wolf and brought nothing but unrest to our pack house!”

Olivia’s face turned red with rage. She started rolling up her sleeves, clearly preparing to curse Richard through the phone.

I quickly covered her mouth with my hand, shaking my head frantically.

We were eavesdropping on Dr. Lewis’s phone call, and we couldn’t cause him trouble by making noise. But honestly, I was just as infuriated as Olivia.

couldn’t believe Richard had the sheer audacity to blame me for his shameless affair with his soon–to–be daughter–in–law.

I

Was I holding silver claws to their throats, forcing them to commit a******y? The man’s delusion knew no bounds.

Alexander’s cold laugh then echoed through the phone, sharp and mocking.

“Oh, was it Aria who forced you to have an affair with Claire? Did she tie you down and make you cheat on your own mate?*

Richard was cle phone.

clearly about to launch into another tirade when a clear, resounding slap rang out through the

The sound was so sharp and decisive that both Olivia and I jumped slightly.

Then, my former mother–in–law Elizabeth’s furious voice cut through the chaos like a whip.

“Richard Reed, you shameless old wolf! You have no shame, but we still do!”

Her voice carried a strength I hadn’t heard in years, filled with righteous indignation and long–suppressed fury.

Perhaps too engrossed in the unfolding drama, Dr. Lewis on the other end gasped audibly at Elizabeth’s unexpected intervention.

“Who is it?“–Alexander roared immediately.

His voice carried the dangerous edge of a cornered predator, ready to strike at any perceived threat.

Olivia and I exchanged quick, panicked glances. We’d been discovered!

Our hearts raced as we realized we might have just compromised Dr. Lewis’s position.

Just then, Dr. Lewis’s remarkably calm voice emerged through the chaos.

“It’s me,” he said with professional composure, as if he’d simply walked into the room.

Alexander sounded genuinely surprised by his appearance.

“Nathan? What are you doing here?”

Dr. Lewis replied with casual nonchalance, as if the answer should be obvious.

“I came to check on Claire after hearing about her incident. Professional courtesy, you understand.*

His tone was so matter–of–fact that I almost believed he hadn’t been deliberately spying.

Alexander’s response was cold and suspicious.

“You just wanted to watch the show, didn’t you?”

Dr. Lewis feigned mild offense at the accusation.

“Well, if I’m not welcome, I can certainly leave,” he said with wounded dignity, preparing to make his exit.

But Elizabeth quickly intervened, her voice softening with genuine appreciation.

“Please don’t mind Alexander, Dr. Lewis. He’s under tremendous stress right now. We’re grateful you came to check on Claire.”

Dr. Lewis seemed genuinely touched by her consideration

“Of course, Luna Reed. I completely understand the circumstances, he replied with respectful warmth. Elizabeth sighed deeply, the sound carrying the weight of her family’s mounting troubles

“Our pack is going through such difficult times right now, she admitted with obvious exhaustion.

Then, with a note of pleading desperation in her voice, she continued.

Dr Lewis, I must ask a favor. Please don’t spread what you’ve heard tonight. This concerns the Reed family’s reputation, and we’re already facing so much scrutiny”

Dr. Lewis readily agreed, his voice carrying professional reassurance.

“Luna Reed, this is clearly a family matter. I would never interfere or spread such private information”

As Olivia continued listening to their conversation, she kept pursing her lips in obvious frustration,

I couldn’t help but smile wryly at her expression. I knew she was feeling indignant on my behalf

I had often told her wonderful stories about how well my former mother–in–law treated me, describing her as loving me like her own daughter.

But Elizabeth’s current actions clearly contradicted everything I’d shared about our relationship.

Of course, I had already seen through my former mother–in–law’s true nature long ago. Her behavior no longer stirred any emotional waves in my heart.

Her loyalty had always been to her family’s reputation first. I had simply been naive enough to believe otherwise.

As I was lost in these bitter thoughts, Dr. Lewis’s voice suddenly broke through the phone.

“Hello, Miss Summers?”

I quickly snapped back to reality, realizing he was addressing me directly.

“Dr. Lewis, I’m here…”

“So, how was it? Did you enjoy the show?” His voice carried a hint of mischievous satisfaction.

I couldn’t help but chuckle despite everything.

“Thank you, Dr. Lewis. That was quite enlightening.”

“Don’t thank me too quickly,” he said with sudden seriousness. “Actually, I have a favor to ask you, Miss

Summers.

“Of course, Dr. Lewis. What can I do for you?”

“Well…” Dr. Lewis struggled to find the right words, clearly uncomfortable with what he was al
