The man fixed his gaze on her for a while, then smiled and said with a hint of sarcasm, “You really are
persistent.”
“Charlie is my brother after all. Even if he is in the Sacred Grounds Prison, I hope he can safely get through those years,” Aria also stood up, looking directly at him, “I just want fairness, is that too much to
ask?”
“Fair?” Kane took a step closer to her, “It was a premeditated kidnapping. Even if no physical harm was done, a crime is a crime. Are you talking to me about fairness here?”
“No substantial harm was caused, the law can give a light sentence, but would you want Charlie to be lightly sentenced?”
“No,” he said without hesitation, cold and decisive.
Aria’s heart suddenly trembled, her face turned pale, “So is it wrong for me to ask for fairness?”
“He could touch anyone, but he shouldn’t touch her.”
His blatant defense of the words shattered Aria’s original expectations.
She thought she could reason with him. Unfortunately, she really “had high hopes“.
The Ravencrest pack was all–powerful, and Kane was ruthless to himself. How could he possibly let her have her way?
“Aria, I didn’t want you to go to Seraphina because of Charlie’s business. You have to remember, she is the victim, and what happened between us has nothing to do with her.”
Kane wanted to turn around, and Aria, with red eyes, laughed and said, “Then am I not the victim anymore?”
Can’t what Seraphina did be called bad things? Was she asking for enduring those things?
He stopped, turned around to look at her, with a complex expression on his face.
“Kane, can’t you just be soft hearted towards me once?”
Just once.

Once is enough.
“Aria,” Kane’s gaze locked onto her, expressionless, “This is something I owe her.”
He left the office without looking back.
Aria stood for a long time, with the words “what he owed her” weighing heavily on her mind, the balance of importance between them becoming clear.
Her chest was densely painful, as if she could hardly breathe.
For a long time, after the calm, she smiled bitterly.
Did he ever remember that he also owed herself?
Kane left the clinic and immediately got into the car.
After answering a phone call, Celia turned around and said, “Alpha Ravencrest, Charlie has been sentenced. His lawyer hinted to him, but he still refused to admit his mistake.”
Celia sighed. Actually, as long as Charlie is willing to admit his mistake, the lawyer has a way to ensure that Charlie only needs to be sentenced to two years, with a one–year suspension of execution.
Unfortunately, Charlie and Ms. Ashworth had similar personalities, and whenever they encountered something involving Ms. Cross, they refused to back down and insisted on confronting Alpha Ravencrest
head–on…
Kane fastened the cuffs, “He wants to go to the Sacred Grounds Prison, then let him have his wish.”
“But Alpha Ravencrest, why didn’t you tell Ms. Ashworth that actually…”
“Are you always this chatty?” Kane tapped on the dial, his face darkening. “Did I give you too little work to
do?”

At the police station.
Charlie was locked in a room with six or seven other inmates. When the police left, a man with floral

tattoos on his arms looked Charlie up and down and said, “You’re the new guy, right? Your name is Charlie, isn’t it?”
“Who are you?”
Charlie saw the other person’s unfriendly look and became a bit cautious.
The man grinned with a toothy smile, slowly got up, “There’s a boss who wants us to take good care of
you.”
Charlie pointed at them and said, “What are you doing, trying to fight? I’m telling you, there are cameras
here.”
“Cameras?” The man with the floral tattoo sneered, raising his chin. “Take a look for yourself?”
Charlie turned around.
The surveillance cameras, which were flashing red lights in the corner just now, suddenly extinguished.

The next day, Aria sat at the dining table and only took a few sips of porridge before she couldn’t eat
anymore.
Anna walked out of the kitchen with a plate of fruit and placed it on the table. “Luna, your appetite seems
to be not good these days. How about I make some spicy snacks for you tomorrow to stimulate your
appetite?”
Aria looked at her and smiled, “If only you were my mother, with a mother like you, I would definitely be
very happy.”
–“Luna, you are flattering me.”
“It’s not flattery, it’s sincere,” Aria lowered her eyes, “Although I know you are only caring for me out of duty, I don’t think I will ever forget your kindness in my life.”
Anna was stunned, feeling suddenly uneasy in her heart, “Oh, madam, your words sound like a farewell, which is not very good.”
Aria lowered her head and took a sip of porridge, smiling but not answering.
After all, they did have to part ways.
