I came here to tell you something.
Iâm not satisfied with the people you sent to do business with the Silver Ridge Pack.
â
Debraâs POV:
Just as my fatherâs words concluded, a group of people, brought in by his subordinates, entered the room.
Their disheveled appearances and downcast expressions spoke volumes about their distress.
As those people stood before us, Luis wore a look of astonishment.
His expressions held a complexity that was hard to decipher, a mix of emotions swirling within him.
He asked in disbelief, âMr.
Clarkson, what do you mean?â
âLiterally.
â My fatherâs voice was like a blade of ice, sharp and cold.
âLuis, the Barton family will no longer find my cooperation favorable.
I intend to sever all ties between the Barton family and the Silver Ridge Pack, swiftly and definitively.
â
âWhat?â Luisâs reaction was nothing short of stunned.
The color drained from his face, leaving him a ghastly shade of pale, and his entire frame quivered with shock.
His eyes blazed with a fiery anger as he retorted, âEduardo Clarkson, this is a far cry from our initial agreement! Youâve broken your vow!â
In a room heavy with tension, my fatherâs gaze bore into him with an air of calm confidence.
âI knew.
But really, what does it matter?â
Luis choked, struggling to respond.
In a moment of quiet contemplation, he shut his eyes, inhaling a deep breath to steady himself.
Gritting his teeth, he asked, âHave you truly thought this through? Think carefully.
The Silver Ridge Pack stands to lose significantly if you proceed with this plan!â
My father maintained his tightlipped silence, his calm demeanor unwavering as he continued to observe Luis closely.
With a glimmer of hope, Luis embarked on a last-ditch effort to sway my father, meticulously dissecting the advantages and disadvantages.
âYou must recognize that the Barton familyâs business prowess reigns supreme among all the packs.
A partnership between the Silver Ridge Pack and us would yield mutual gains, sans any drawbacks!â
But my father dispelled his hopes with a single, succinct retort, shattering the illusion.
âIt holds no significance to me.
I donât care.

Luis froze in disbelief, his mind grappling with the enigma of my fatherâs decision-a choice that seemed to hurt Luis more than it benefited my father.
Without lifting so much as an eyelid, my father added, âLuis, I heard youâve been making things difficult for Debra at Thorn Edge Pack.
The news has circulated widely.
â
âSo what?â Luis scratched his head, a confused expression etched across his features.
âHey, didnât you and your daughter split up ages ago? What I did didnât affect you.
â
My fatherâs voice was flat and emotionless, but there was an unwavering conviction behind it.
âNo matter whatâs happened, sheâs still my daughter.
I attended her engagement ceremony, hoping sheâd be treated with all the respect a Luna should get.
Itâs tough seeing her targeted and mistreated.
