Chapter 61: The Confrontation of Two Alphas

(God’s POV)

Olivia was startled by Theodore’s sudden appearance and watched helplessly as he struck Killian.

The sound of flesh hitting flesh echoed through the laboratory. Killian staggered back, blood trickling from the corner of

his mouth.

But ignoring the pain, he immediately threw a fist back at Theodore’s face. His military training kicked in as his knuckles connected with Theodore’s jaw.

Killian, trained in military combat techniques, faced off against Theodore, a martial arts expert. Both were skilled fighters, and neither was willing to back down.

They grappled fiercely, overturning equipment and sending papers flying. Theodore’s Alpha strength clashed against

Killian’s precise technique.

The researchers and pack enforcers rushed to pull them apart, finally stopping the chaos. Multiple hands grabbed at the

two Alphas, forcing them to separate.

“Professor Vance, are you alright?” Olivia asked, noticing the blood on the corner of Killian’s mouth and quickly offering

him a tissue.

Just as Killian reached for it, Theodore snatched it away. “My love, I’m bleeding too,” he said, grabbing her hand and

pulling her, along with the tissue, into his embrace.

“You deserved it!” Olivia struggled but couldn’t break free from her mate’s strong arms. “Who told you to hit someone without reason! Apologize to Professor Vance right now.”

Seeing Olivia’s distress made him relent. Unwilling to see Olivia upset, Theodore gave in.

“Fine, I’ll apologize.” He turned to Killian, his voice dripping with false sincerity. “I’m sorry, Professor Vance. I

misunderstood that you had improper intentions towards my mate.”

His gaze was sharp and piercing, promising future retribution. The researchers began to whisper among themselves, sensing the underlying tension.

Hearing this, Killian’s jaw tightened. “Alpha Redgrave, you shouldn’t think of me that way, nor should you distrust your mate,” he replied calmly.

“Our friendly interaction is only about the development of scientific research.” His ice–blue eyes remained steady despite the accusation.

Olivia’s face flushed with anger and embarrassment. Her mate’s own depravity made him see filth everywhere.

“I’m sorry, Professor Vance. My mate must have misunderstood. I’ll be leaving for today.”

As Olivia was about to leave, Theodore stepped closer to Killian. His voice dropped to a low, cold threat only the two of

them could hear.

“You’ve known my mate for a while. I will find out why you’re pretending to be a stranger to get close to her.”

“But no matter how you try to win her over, she won’t give you a second glance.”

Killian’s voice equally low, “You should be glad that when I met her, you were already in her heart.”

*However, latecomers often surpass the old. The day she is no longer your mate…”

Enraged, Theodore instantly grabbed Killian by the collar. “You dare!”

Olivia rushed forward to pry them apart again.

“Let go. Theodore, you’re going too far,” she said, her voice laced with frustration. “If you mess around again, I’ll ignore

you.”

With that, she turned and walked away, her heels clicking sharply against the floor.

Theodore shoved Killian and ordered his pack enforcer, “See how much compensation Professor Vance wants and pay him,” before chasing after Olivia. He pulled her into his arms to coax and placate her.

Through the glass window, Killian watched them, his heart feeling as if it were being hammered. Theodore’s arms wrapped possessively around Olivia’s waist.

A pack enforcer placed a stack of cash and a business card on the table. “Professor Vance, if this isn’t enough, you can contact me.”

Gina Frost, one of the researchers, bristled at the dismissive gesture. “Having money is no big deal, our Professor Vance’s assets are not inferior…”

Killian stopped her with a raised hand. As he watched Theodore and Olivia leave together, an arm around each other, he

sank into his chair.

“Professor, I’ll take you to the pack infirmary for a check–up,” a researcher offered. “You and Cipher are innocent. Alpha Redgrave is just making baseless accusations and bullying people. It’s too much.”

“No need, you all get back to work,” Killian said, not wanting them to discuss Olivia any further. His voice carried quiet

authority despite his injury.

He turned to his assistant. “Gina, Theodore finding out I know Olivia is likely because of my high–profile return. Lock down all my past information immediately.”

He couldn’t risk exposing her. Her identity as ‘Cipher,‘ a legendary former operative, was a dangerous secret that could

destroy everything.

Gina quickly found a single photo of them together from six years ago on the secure servers. “It was a mission,” Killian

explained softly, his hand touching the image of a distraught Olivia on the screen.

“She saved me, but couldn’t save my assistant. She was devastated.” It was the first time she had faced such

powerlessness in the field.

“Destroy the photo. I don’t want her to see it or remember these things.” His voice was heavy with old pain.

Gina complied, her fingers hovering over the delete key. “Professor, Olivia will surely feel your kindness.”

Killian gave a bitter smile. “She… is quite heartless. She has no eyes for me.”

Meanwhile, In Theodore’s car, he looked seriously at Olivia, “My love, did you quit your job to go to the institute?” he asked.

Olivia paused, choosing her words carefully. “Gina’s programming skills are incredible, a true genius. I want to learn from

her.”

Relieved, Theodore pulled her into a possessive hug. “I’ll hire Gina to teach you at our manor. You don’t need to leave the pack territory.”
