                    Freda POV
If it was the old me, I would’ve made a joke out of this in front of Allen. But right now I wasn’t in the mood for that.
I shrugged and smiled bitterly, “Your lady caretaker is too tired today and please let me have a day off, alpha Allen.”
He eyed me up and down and finally fixed his eyes on my hands. Then he suddenly became a little frigid and said, “Get in the car.”
I moved my feet and found out that they had become numb after I stood still for too long. I didn’t think I could drive under this condition so I had to say, “Fine.”
The car door opened and when I wanted to get in, my feet went weak as I moved my legs all of a sudden after standing for too long. I lost balance and fell toward the car. Unexpectedly, I didn’t fall to the ground and just fell into someone’s arms.
And that person groaned when my body hit him.
Oh! Damn it, it must’ve been a huge crash. Before I could ask Allen if he was alright, he said in a deep voice, “You really like throwing yourself at me, don’t you?”
I was pretty sure that he was teasing me! And he was mocking me for what happened in the manor that day!
Why did I keep making a fool of myself in front of this man?
“I’m sorry. Are you okay?” I blushed and got out of his embrace, straightening up hurriedly. But it got a little awkward especially when I noticed that I crumpled his shirt.
“I’ll help you…Woah,” I gasped as Allen suddenly grabbed my hand.
He frowned and said, “Are you hurt?”
“Hmm?”
Allen nodded at my hand, “Your hand.”
Then I finally noticed the blood on my wrist which reminded me of what happened just now. I choked a bit and found it hard to say anything about it, “I think it’s Natasha’s.”
Technically, this blood came from the baby that Natasha used as leverage.
Allen didn’t seem to be interested in that at all and wasn’t curious about what just happened. But he didn’t let go of my hand and took a napkin out of his pocket. I was stunned when I saw him wiping off the blood on my wrist.
He was gentle with me and softly cleaned off the blood on my hand with care.
And I was so shocked that I didn’t withdraw my hand.
I always thought that Allen was cold and didn’t have any feelings and his temper was getting worse after he lost his wolf. But I never knew that he had got this side of him.
His hands were warm and a lot bigger than mine. He could easily hold my entire wrist but he was doing that very gently. He dipped that expensive napkin in water and softly wiped off the stains on my wrist.
Somehow, the discomfort Natasha brought me was also cleared out of my head and I felt like my heart melted a little.
I didn’t have the guts to face the feelings I was having right now and tried to act cool by saying, “Alpha. Allen, I thought you hired me to be your caretaker. Now it looks like you’re my caretaker.”
Allen didn’t get upset and even smiled a bit, “You’re back on your feet now?”
“Huh?”
Allen laughed faintly, “You were standing there like a fool for so long that I thought my lady caretaker has become a little bit silly and needs other people to take care of her.”
Standing there like a fool?
Wait, what exactly did he see?
I frowned, “When did you get here?”
I didn’t know why he awkwardly looked away when I asked him that. He coughed a little and then tossed the napkin away. He changed the subject and said, “You need any help?’
“With Natasha?” I pretended that I didn’t care about that at all and shook my head, “No. That woman always pulls the same trick. But I didn’t expect that she would be so cruel that she could kill her own baby just so she could be the Luna of the Blood Moon Pack.”
Allen said coldly, “For some people, profit is what comes first.”
I paused and agreed with him, “Yeah. To trade a child that hasn’t been born yet for the position of the Luna of the Lunarko pack is a good deal for Natasha and her mother.”
But I still felt bad for that innocent child.
“Now they all think that you’re the one who killed the baby. What are you gonna do about it?” Allen asked, “that moron looked kind of creepy when he left.”
That moron referred to Carl.
Maybe Carl wasn’t that into Natasha but he really cared about his child. He was eager to have his own child as his heir and that was important leverage for him when he tried to make a deal with alpha Hunter.
Now that the baby was gone, he would never let the person who murdered their child get away with this even though he was just a wuss.
“Do you need any help?” Allen asked again but then he paused for a while, “it looks like you’re not afraid that they might come after you at all.”
I raised my eyebrows and smiled at him mysteriously, “I hope Natasha will make a big deal out of it and by the time Carl and the others come at me, I’ll give them a big surprise.”
I took out my phone and waved it in front of him.
“You recorded the whole thing?” Allen asked but he was sure that I did.
“Yeah,” I chuckled, “when she fell, I immediately took out my phone and wanted to dial 911. But then Natasha couldn’t hold it back anymore and said a lot of things to me.”
I played the recording on my phone.
“Freda, you made alpha Hunter test me if I’m threatening you with this child just so I can marry Carl. But you see, I already find a way out.”
“Did you take an abortifacient?”
“You’re smarter than I thought you are. Your mother’s company, your arranged marriage, and your father’s love for you…These will all be mine!”
I recorded everything including the engine noises in the parking lot. I didn’t expect that my nice gesture would help me get such an important recording.
Allen was impressed and then he pointed at the rearview window in the front seat and said, “Maybe this can help you even more.”
“What?”
“The automobile data recorder.”
I was stunned. That was why he asked me if I needed any help. I thought he was offering me shelter but it turned out he accidentally recorded what happened in the parking lot.
Even though Allen was a little far from us and the recorder only captured me. But we could clearly see from the video that I was very far away from her when Natasha fell and I even wanted to save her yet she grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let go.
“To be honest, I’m kinda looking forward to seeing the look on Natasha’s face when I showed them the video and the recording,” I couldn’t help but say.
If Natasha didn’t mess with me, then I probably wouldn’t show these things to the public. If Natasha asked for it, then I would just pick the perfect time to show them to everyone.
“Now let’s see what Natasha wants to do this.”
