Chapter 245
Third Person’s POV
Adelaide abruptly stood up inside the room. “Quick! See if it’s Pasley and others arriving... Where's Beata?”
Beata had already rushed to the street corner. Spotting the extended Lincoln motorcade following closely behind,
she felt a mix of heartache and warmth. Those who had promised to stay away had appeared in
such a manner.
Upon hearing the list of gifts from the Ancient Moon Pack, tears finally fell from Adelaide's
eyes.
Avery, who always claimed the Ancient Moon Pack was impoverished, had gifted something so extravagant-it
must have drained the pack’s annual budget.
The most astonishing was the Crimson FlPack’s gift list. “One kilogram of Tasmanian black pearls, three
Colombian emerald display pieces, a Stradivarius violin replica, eighteen carats of pigeon’s blood rubies,
eighteen carats of blue sapphires, and ten sets of Frette custom bedding...”.
As onlookers used Google to estimate the jewelry’s value, the entire street erupted upon discovering the
Crimson FlPack’s gifts totaled over ten million dollars.
Gloria clenched her wedding gown’s hem, finally realizing those eight trucks weren't ordinary—they carried
symbols of wealth capable of upending the city’s social hierarchy.

After the Crimson FlPack cthe Digby Medical Center, which sent various precious herbs.
Following them, other packs also gifted rare treasures.
Gloria grew increasingly despondent with each announcement.
Adelaide, too, trembled with emotion, barely registering the gift lists and focusing only on the names of the
packs.
Many she had no prior dealings with-clearly, Irene had alerted them.
Finally, after six or seven more pack names, Adelaide heard Leonard's voice, “The Warscar Training Camp, in
celebration of Adelaide’s mating ceremony, presents ten buildings in the Chain Shopping Malls and two estates
beneath the Shadow Peaks.”
This declaration echoed down the long street, likely audible for miles.
The Warscar Training Camp sending a gift? Adelaide was indeed from the camp, but as a mere student.
The magnitude of this gift stunned all who heard it.
Gloria, with her makeup slightly heavy to cover a few freckles, suddenly turned pale.
“What? The Warscar Training Camp's gift?”
“Ten shopping mall buildings and two estates?”
“Impossible, it must be a hoax.”

“What happened?” she shouted hoarsely.
Back at the Frostfang Pack, Adelaide covered her mouth with one hand, tears streaming uncontrollably
Irene, playing such a trick!
After days of suspense, they announced the gift at the last minute-did they want her to ruin her makeup with
tears?
Beata, who had been following the motorcade, turned at the commotion.
Recognizing the Warscar Training Camp’s members, she sprinted back, exclaiming, “Alpha Adelaide, so many
people are here! Your mentor Irene and Klein are here too-so many guests!”
Adelaide ran out in her wedding gown. Seeing Irene, her tears fell like broken beads. She stamped her feet in
agitation, spinning in place, her diamond headpiece askew. She wiped her tears repeatedly, her vision blurred by
the endless stream.
A tall figure stopped before her, his tone brimming with fondness yet tinged with helplessness, “You used to fight
till you were bruised and bloody without shedding a tear. Why are you so tearful now? Don’t embarrassby
claiming to be my student when you go out.”
Calloused hands gently wiped her cheeks, removing the tears. Irene smiled, though sorrow lurked in her eyes.
“Stop crying. Your makeup is so beautiful today. Now look what you've done, smudging it all. Is your beauty mark
fake? Why is it smudging too?”
Adelaide, a sobbing mess, choked out, “Irene, you lied to me! You said you were coming and then you weren't.
Now you show up at the last minute. You've keptsleepless for nights on end. I'm about to leave, and you
finally arrive.”
She wiped her eyes again and again until she could finally see clearly-the people filing in were Irene, Klein,
Craig, Prunella, Leonard... even representatives from the Crimson FlPack with a group of members.

Paisley pulled funny faces, though her eyes reddened as she did so.
Representatives from the Ancient Moon Pack and many other packs she'd never met stood behind Irene, smiling
at her with tears glistening in their eyes.
The motorcade had already departed. In half an hour, she would undergo the mating ceremony.
Lance had said he would cto escort her personally, and now her smeared makeup would require the stylists
to touch it up again.
But Adelaide couldn't stop her tears. She playfully punched Irene, then Craig, but when it cto Prunella, she
couldn’t bring herself to hit her. Instead, she embraced her. “Prunella, | thought you weren't coming. I've been so
heartbroken, thinking you all didn’t wantanymore.”
