PRESENT

Arabella tried her best not to cry in front of him after learning that he was getting married to that model. She was already getting frustrated with the coincidence that she observed after drawing a 3D star. She wanted to destroy his whole room in anger, but instead, she walked out only to hear his parents discussing when to tell Wylder about his marriage with Tiara.
The next thing she knew, she ran back to the room and destroyed every single thing that she felt would be useless or could be fixed.
She was fuming in anger to hide her tears, but all her emotions evaporated like thin air when he touched her. The realization hit her in the next second, so she walked away from there as soon as possible.

"Where is Tee? Is she still sleeping?" Eden asked, settling at the breakfast table with Arya. Everyone greeted them, to which they nodded their heads in acknowledgment. Her eyes landed on Arabella, who resumed eating her breakfast after greeting them with chopsticks.
"She is in the hospital. She got her shoulder dislocated because of a catfight." Wylder replied so casually as if he didn’t give a damn whether she broke her hand or broke her head. Eden didn’t comment on his behavior.
She was there with Sophia when she and Brandon had been separated, but the moment she learned about his sick condition, She was there for him.
"I hope she would have given tough competition to that cat; after all, Tiara is good at fighting." Arya chuckled, looking at the nail marks on Arabella’s neck.
Wylder didn’t reply to his mother because he didn’t have anything to say. Instead of breaking Arabella’s neck or hand, Tiara was crying to get his sympathy.
"How is she now?" Eden asked him. "Did you inform Brandon about her condition?"
"She is not doing great. Lee can cure her within seconds, but she doesn’t want to take her sister’s help, so within 4-6 weeks, she will be fine at human recovery speed." Wylder responded to her first question. "And I didn’t get a chance to inform Uncle last night. I will do that after breakfast."
Arabella didn’t like the topic that they were discussing at the breakfast table, but she didn’t have another option but to listen to them.
After finishing breakfast, Arabella went to the library to start her work and also to keep her mind off the Alpha. She spent an hour taking a tour of the library to remember all the book departments that Ms. Amiee Haris had told her last night.
Thankfully, most of the people in the library were teenagers or pups who knew where they could find the books they required. So, her work was to arrange the books, assign or reassign the books, and check the books in stock.
