Chapter 7
I leaned back in my chair, a smug smile playing at my lips as I delivered my ultimatum.
“Disagree? Fine. Let’s drag this out indefinitely. Alpha Joseph and I can keep playing the part of a strained couple, and your precious Omega Amanda will forever be stuck in the shadows as the ‘mistress! In the meantime, I’ll make it my personal mission to ensure your little secrets aren’t so secret anymore. How about we see how the werewolf community reacts to the scandal of a sister–in–law sleeping with her brother–in–law? Are you and Alpha Joseph ready for that kind of disgrace?”
I casually waved my hand, a smile playing at the corner of my eye, my words laced with

threat.
“Smash!”
The vase beside my father shattered into pieces as he slammed his hand down on the table.
I clucked my tongue, shaking my head in mock disappointment.
“Careful now,” I said, tilting my head. “If I’m not mistaken, that vase was part of my mother’s collection. It’s a reminder of her, and we wouldn’t want to lose something so precious. After all, I’m talking about her entire inheritance–nothing can be left out. Not even a vase.”
“You…you ungrateful child!” my father spluttered, his face turning an alarming shade of red as he clutched his chest. “What

kind of wicked daughter did I raise?!”
He staggered, and my stepmother Roxanne and Omega Amanda rushed to his side, frantically shoving a heart pill into his mouth.
My stepmother Roxanne didn’t forget to play the moral card.
“Alpha Morris is your father,‘ she accused, her tone heavy with manufactured outrage. “Do you want to drive him to his death with your cruelty?”
I scoffed, crossing my arms.
“Even if he drops dead, my terms won’t change. I won’t give up a single penny of my mother’s inheritance!”
“Or we can take it to werewolf court and see

whose name gets dragged through the mud with this little sister and brother–in–law’s affair. I honestly don’t care!”
Hearing my cold words, my father’s
condition worsened, and he took two more heart pills.
My stepmother Roxanne tried to haggle with
- me.
I shook my head firmly.
“Sorry, no room for negotiation here.”
I made sure to remind them in the most sarcastic tone possible.
“After all, who doesn’t know that Alpha Joseph will be the one in charge of the Blue Rock Pack in the future? If a husband like that doesn’t give me enough benefits, how

could I ever willingly hand him over?”
I finished my sentence and provocatively looked at Omega Amanda.
“Since you’re unwilling to part with these things, how about letting your favorite daughter marry Alpha Leonard instead? Though he’s crippled, maybe there’s still hope, huh?”
My taunt hit a nerve with Omega Amanda, and she immediately panicked, desperately shaking my father’s hand.
“Dad! I don’t care, I don’t care! I want to marry Alpha Joseph! Didn’t you always say you loved me the most? Are you really going to let Britney, this bitch, step all over me just because of a bit of money and Crystal Blood Pack?!”

Hearing her words, my father and My stepmother Roxanne both fell silent.
Omega Amanda continued to plead with them.
“Dad, Mom, Alpha Joseph said the cripple won’t last much longer. Once he’s dead, everything in the Blue Rock Pack will be ours, right?! It’s just a little bit of money, The Crystal Blood Pack is nothing compared to the Blue Rock Pack.we can’t let something so trivial cause us to lose everything!”
With Omega Amanda’s persuasive words, they finally relented.
My stepmother Roxanne didn’t miss the chance and whispered in my father’s ear, planting more ideas in his mind.
“Since you’re so heartless, then from this

day forward, I have no daughter like you,” he declared, his voice trembling with rage. “You’re no longer part of this family!”
I smiled coolly, rising to my feet.
“Finally,” I said with a mock bow. “A decision I can agree with.”
My stepmother Roxanne, clearly eager to finalize things before I changed my mind, hurriedly summoned their lawyer. Within moments, a contract was in front of me, officially severing my ties to the Howells.
I signed it without hesitation.
Then, I pulled out a prepared inventory list and waved for my assistants to begin packing.
The next hour was a whirlwind of activity.

By the time we were done, the house was practically gutted.
As I passed Roxanne, I caught the pitying look in her eyes–a feeble attempt to regain some ground.
“What are you doing?! Britney, I’m your elder. Your stepmother, and I’ve given you everything. You can’t hit me!”
I didn’t pay any attention to her begging and yanked the emerald necklace from her neck.
“If I remember correctly, this necklace was part of my mother’s dowry, right?”
My stepmother Roxanne’s face flashed with embarrassment.
Then, she pretended to be generous, waving her hand.

“Take it, take it all!”
But I wasn’t swayed. I extended my hand again.
“And the earrings and the ring, they were also my mother’s.”
My stepmother Roxanne had no more words to say. In frustration, she took off all the jewelry and handed it over to me.
Without a word, I passed it to my assistant standing nearby.
“Take these, clean them up, and disinfect them thoroughly.”
The expressions of the three of them darkened even further.
