Lillian gave a bleak smile. “So that means… if I really break the mate bond with Shawn, you won’t allow me to come home.”
Ruby answered sternly. “It’s not that I won’t let you come home. I simply won’t allow you to break the mate bond. And if you keep talking like this, I’ll go to the Silvermoon Pack tomorrow and demand an explanation from Laila. I don’t believe she didn’t put these ideas into your head.”
Panicked, Lillian hurriedly pushed herself upright. “Please don’t go looking for her. She didn’t instigate me. This is what I want.”
“You’ve always been obedient and sensible since childhood. How could you possibly think of something like this on your own?” Ruby knew exactly where her daughter’s weakness lay. Her tone hardened. “Let me make this clear. If you dare mention breaking the mate bond again, I will blame Laila no matter what. It must have been her encouraging you, filling your head with these irrational thoughts.”
Lillian slowly lay back down. There was no life left in her eyes anymore, only a deathly stillness. For some reason, she suddenly wanted to laugh. And she did. A faint, hollow smile touched her lips as she quietly wiped away the tears sliding down her cheeks. She murmured, “Alright, I understand.”
Hearing her daughter become obedient again, Ruby finally relaxed in satisfaction. “It’s good that you understand. Focus on taking care of the baby. I’ll come visit whenever I have time. And don’t worry, your father and I will properly reprimand Shawn and make him restrain himself.”
But Lillian’s eyes remained utterly motionless. Not even the faintest ripple stirred within them
anymore.
Her parents had been her final source of support. Yet her mother’s words had extinguished the very last of her hope.
After the Whitmore couple left, the servants of the Thunder Pack began cleaning up the mess throughout the estate.
Meanwhile, Shawn and Tiffany were summoned into the study.
The Alpha was away from home, so all matters were currently handled by Luna Evelyn.

She stared at Tiffany, who was hiding in Shawn’s arms and sobbing endlessly, then at her son, who was gently patting the omega’s back and comforting her in a soft voice. The sight irritated her to no end.
If she didn’t have only this one son, she truly would have wanted to give up on him entirely.
For the sake of a woman, an omega, he had offended both Prince Vance and Laila Conlay. It was utterly foolish.
But he was her only son. One day, the Thunder Pack would still have to be handed over to him.
Suppressing her frustration, Evelyn snapped, “What are you crying for? If you hadn’t gone provoking Lillian tonight, would any of this have happened?”
Yet Shawn still shielded Tiffany protectively. “Mom, how can you blame Tiffany for this? Haven’t you seen how vicious the people around Lillian are? They even dared to hit me.”
“Shut your mouth!”
Evelyn shot Tiffany another furious glare and snapped, “You. Go kneel outside. Without my permission, you are not allowed to get up.”
Shawn immediately stepped in front of Tiffany. “She can’t kneel. That vicious woman already injured her. Look at her face…”
Evelyn finally snapped. A loud slap landed across Shawn’s face. She roared, “You idiot! Don’t you realize disaster is already upon us?!”
Having been slapped repeatedly today, Shawn’s fury finally exploded completely. “Fine! Fine! Since all of you hate Tiffany and me so much, we’ll leave the Thunder Pack! I won’t be the Alpha heir anymore either. Whoever wants the position can have it!”
For once, he truly acted with conviction. He immediately stormed back to his room and began packing his things.
Evelyn sat stiffly in her chair. When a servant later came to report that Shawn had genuinely left after packing, her face turned colder than ice.
After a long silence, she finally asked, “Did Tiffany try to stop him?”
“N–No, Luna… She packed her things and left with him.”
Evelyn closed her eyes and let out a heavy sigh.

Shawn brought Tiffany to a hotel.
After settling her in, he immediately contacted his friends, intending to gather them together to deal with Prince Vance and Laila.
However, when the appointed time arrived, only 5 people showed up.
And the moment they heard the people he intended to oppose were Prince Vance and Laila, every single one of them widened their eyes in disbelief.
Those two were now celebrated heroes of the Rydar Kingdom.
Go against them? Did he have a death wish?
3 people immediately turned around and left on the spot. The remaining 2 at least stayed long enough to hear him finish venting his grievances before exchanging helpless glances. “Shawn, from our perspective, you’re the one in the wrong here. Their methods may have been extreme, but their intentions were good.”
“What?” Shawn exploded furiously. “You’re actually speaking up for them? Are you even my friends?!”
“We are your friends. That’s why we’re willing to tell you the truth.”
“Bullshit! You’re just afraid of their status! You don’t dare oppose them!”
The friends were rendered completely speechless.
Seeing there was no reasoning with him, the two men simply stopped talking and left as well.
Shawn was left alone, stomping around in fury.
“Damn it! Every single one of them is a cowardly opportunist!”
Still, the situation did sober him up slightly.
Without anyone backing him, it would be difficult for him to make this matter bigger on his own. Instead, he would only end up offending Samuel and Laila even further.
But no matter what, he simply could not swallow this humiliation.
At that moment, a strange glint flashed through Tiffany’s eyes. She wrapped her arms around Shawn’s arm and gazed up at him admiringly. “Shawn, Laila and Samuel are clearly using their

power to bully others. Other people may be afraid of them, but I know you’re not. You’re a hero. You’ll definitely stand up for powerless ordinary people like us, right?”
Under Tiffany’s admiring gaze, Shawn instantly became intoxicated with himself.
He nodded firmly. “That’s right. Exactly. I’ll fight them to the very end! So what if he’s a prince and she’s a duchess? I’m not afraid of them!”
He wasn’t wrong. He was fighting evil to the bitter end.
