Upon hearing this, Samuel furrowed his thick eyebrows but didn’t say anything. He put down his coat and sat across from
Gigi.
“As long as you mate him and develop a good relationship with Dylan, the Lawrence pack will gradually provide resources for you, out of respect for you.”
“Dylan may seem easygoing, but he has a stubborn and untamed nature. He won’t make concessions for a woman.”
“You think you know what kind of person he is just by meeting him once?”
Gigi let out a deep sigh.
“Dad, I want to help you, but it’s clear that Dylan isn’t interested in me.”
If Dylan were interested in her, he wouldn’t have been so blunt.
Samuel wanted to say something else, but he stopped when he saw the exhaustion on Gigi’s face.
This daughter of his has always listened to him and never disobeyed him.
Plus, he had arranged so many wealthy suitors for her, but none of them found her appealing. It’s even less likely for Dylan from the Lawrence pack to be an exception.
Thinking of this, Samuel sighed, “You, you’re not ugly, just a bit strong, why can’t anyone see your worth?”
Johnny, who entered from the door, sneered, “If no one sees her worth, she can just stay at home. I can afford to take care of my sister.”
This attempt at consolation was better left unsaid. “Brother,
aren’t you in the same situation…”
One with bipolar disorder, the other with a bad temper, the two of them, no one can criticize anyone.
Samuel thought about his son and daughter, one unable to mfind a she-wolf, the other unable to mate, and it gave him a headache.
“Handle your own affairs yourselves.”
He picked up his coat and went upstairs.
Seeing Samuel go back to his room, Johnny sat down and asked, “That ba stard didn’t come?”
Gigi shook her head and nodded, “He came, but he didn’t dare to come out and see me.”
Johnny scoffed at the coward and glanced at Gigi, “Since you like bodyguards so much, why not switch to someone else?
Nick is not bad.”
Gigi sighed in exasperation, “Brother, you should first understand what it means to like someone before consoling me.”
She put the pillow aside, got up, went to her room, washed up, and lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling in a daze. In the middle of the night, after all the lights in the Brook pack’s house had gone out, Zack climbed onto the windowsill, pushed open the window, and walked silently to Gigi’s bedside.
Bathed in the moonlight that spilled into the room, Zack gazed at the peacefully sleeping Gigi for a while before reaching out to gently touch her cheek.
As his hand made contact with her face, Gigi’s hand, which was tucked under the blanket, trembled slightly. It seemed like she knew who it was, but she didn’t open her eyes.
Zack let go, then leaned down to kiss her forehead. The gesture was tender and reluctant, but also felt like a final goodbye, as if he was kissing her one last time before leaving.
“I’m sorry.”
Zack whispered softly, released Gigi, and turned towards the windowsill.
Just as he was about to jump down, Gigi’s voice came from behind him –
“If you leave like this, never come find me again…”
Zack’s body froze, and he turned around to see Gigi uncovering herself and walking towards him.
Zack thought she would come over and slap him hard, but he didn’t expect her expression to be so calm, without a trace of resentment in her eyes.
This was a side of Gigi that Zack had never seen before, as if she had already let go of him. Realizing this, Zack suddenly felt his heart in turmoil.
“Gigi, I…”
“Did you come to find me so late just to steal a kiss from me?”
Gigi interrupted him, taking a step forward and looking up at Zack who sat on the windowsill.
“Are you still obsessed with my body, so you came to hara*s me in the middle of the night?”
“No…”
Zack should not have come again, but he couldn’t control himself. What did it mean?
It could only mean that he liked Gigi, but not in the crazy way Griffon loved Taya. Zack still had some sense left, enough to not do anything reckless.
He came just to silently bid farewell, not to win Gigi back. But he didn’t expect to be discovered by her. Zack was at a loss for words, unable to say anything.
“Then why did you come to find me?”
“I came to say goodbye.”
Upon hearing these words, Gigi laughed.
“So that’s it. Well, now that you’ve said your goodbyes, you can , leave.”
She lifted her chin in the direction of the windowsill, urging Zack to go quickly.
Zack’s heart was torn with conflicting emotions. He should leave at this moment, but his feet wouldn’t obey.
“What about you and Dylan from the Lawrence pack?”
“He’s not bad. We’re getting mated in a few days.”
Zack stood there, dumbfounded, then jumped off the windowsill and grabbed Gigi’s shoulders, speaking with a hint of urgency:
“You’ve only met him once, and you’re already getting mated so quickly. At least date for six months, get to know what kind of person he really is before getting mated…”
“What’s it to you?”
A calm retort made Zack suddenly fall silent.
He stared into Gigi’s eyes for a while, gathered his courage, and pulled her into his arms.
“Don’t mate him.”
