Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker
Chapter 76

Lauren's

POV

What Victor said shocked everyone in the room.

"Alpha Victor has a partner? Didn't he just break off his engagement?"

"Maybe he doesn't have one yet. Alpha Victor only said it was for his partner but he didn't say who it is. Maybe he hasn't found his partner yet." "Oh my god, Michael just said that he wanted to use this tiara to propose to his fiancée. And now..."

"This is so embarrassing. His ex-fiancée is still in the room and he can't wait to propose to his new fiancée now. What they have is true love, indeed."

People started gossiping and Victor, who was the center of the conversation, ordered the servants to close the curtains. He didn't even send his people to get this tiara. Normally, if someone bought a collection at such a high price, the buyer would come out and alpha Morgan would show his gratitude. But Victor didn't give a damn about this at all and didn't look like he even liked this tiara.

And that made Michael and Janice even more embarrassed. Michael clenched his fists and wanted to flee the scene right away and Janice finally didn't have time to search for me anymore. Her face turned red and she looked like she was about to cry. But she still took Michael's hand and sat back in their seats with him.

Now, leaving would only make things worse for them. This proposal didn't go well as planned and even though there was still a diamond ring left in the auction, Michael didn't seem to be interested and they just kept their mouth shut until the auction was finally

over.

However, Mila was getting more intrigued. Her eyes sparkled when she saw those pieces of jewelry on the auction table and she said, "Woah! Lauren, check out that diamond brooch. I think that matches my blue suit perfectly."

"It's fabulous. You should buy it." It was a moon-shaped brooch and under the lights, the diamonds were shining bright on it just like moonlight.

Mila thought twice about it and shook her head, "Never mind. My bank account is telling me no."

However, Mila still couldn't resist the temptation and bought this brooch. I knew she was just kidding. Although she wasn't rich like the old money, she made quite decent money. She bid on that brooch and was finally satisfied. She really liked it but she was also doing this for charity. And then I bought a painting.

"Where are you gonna hang this painting?" asked Mila. I could see from her eyes that this wasn't a simple question.

"Where am I gonna hang it? Of course I'll hang it in..." I suddenly paused. Right now Victor and I were living together and I somehow got a sense of belonging from that estate. When Mila asked me that question, I was thinking about which wall I should hang it on in the estate and how nice it would be to have Victor admire this painting with me.

"Love really makes a difference," Mila giggled.

I didn't argue with her and said, "Then you should fall in love sometime."

"I'm in love every single day," Mila said, "and every day I'm in a brand-new relationship."

I gave her a look.

"And I'm gonna go and get my new babe," said Mila, lifting her dress excitedly.

"Go. I hope you'll find another babe on your way there." I nodded. "That would be best."

As Mila and I were walking out, a woman came up to us, looking furious. It seemed like she had been holding back her anger the entire night and couldn't take it anymore when she saw the smiles on our faces, "You're happy now? Lauren, are you enjoying the show tonight? You just sat there and watch your family, your own tribe getting humiliated, you cold-blooded bitch!"

It was Evelyn.

What a dumbass. After what happened last time, she was still easily manipulated by Janice and pointed fingers at me in my face.

"Piss off, dumbass." This time, I didn't want to be polite to her anymore.

Evelyn roared, "You stupid ass, ruthless bitch! You're the reason why there are rumors about Janice and Michael and why they and our two tribes got humiliated. You must be gloating now, right? I don't know why alpha Victor would do that but you're the reason why they had a prejudice against Janice and Michael!"

I wanted to leave but then Evelyn's words caught my attention. I asked, "Alpha Victor? What did he do?"

"Stop playing dumb! I know you're laughing at our pain right now!" Evelyn yelled angrily, "he bid on that tiara but then he donated it! He did that to mock Michael and Janice!"

...That did sound like Victor but I didn't think he did that to mock them or target them. He just probably thought that taking the tiara home was too much trouble and he didn't like it anyway.

But Evelyn and Janice didn't think so.

"Oh, is that so?" I nodded and asked, "so am I the one who forced Michael and Janice to have an affair?"

"What?"

"Am I the one who forced them to propose in the auction?"

"Did I force them to make such a high-profile display of affection at the ball?"

I kept throwing questions at her and she didn't know what to say anymore. Her face went pale and she said, "They love each other! And you got jealous! You've been setting Janice up all these times!" "You're the ones who always come at us like a bunch of flies," Mila couldn't take it anymore and speak up.

"You two are just as mean and despicable as each other!" Evelyn screamed, "you just can't let Janice and Michael be happy. And that odd alpha is just like you. What a weird cripple..."

Before she could finish her sentence, I grabbed her shoulder and threw her to the wall. I strode over, wrapped my hand around her neck and said coldly, "Don't say things you shouldn't say. Haven't you learned from the lesson I taught you last time?" I wondered if it was the look on my face or my strength that shocked Evelyn, her whole body was shaking and she couldn't utter a single word. She just glared at me with her eyes wide open. I pressed against her harder and threatened, "If you can't learn your lesson, I'll keep teaching you until you can."

Evelyn started sweating like crazy.

"Lauren!" Janice, who had been watching from afar for a long time, finally showed up and put her hand on my arm, "please leave Evelyn alone. Don't take it out on Evelyn because of me. If you're mad, just come at me. Don't do this to my friend, please." She looked pitiful and vulnerable.

And the noises caught the attention of the people around us. That was why Janice would finally show up.

"I'm begging you, Lauren," Janice pleaded. She kept her voice low but loud enough for everyone else to hear, "I'll fulfill the promise I made to father. As long as you leave, Michael and I will send you money on a regular basis."

I was annoyed and didn't want to play along anymore so I just let go of Evelyn. But seeing there were audiences around, Janice took the chance and pretended I pushed her. She even threw herself to the wall and fainted.

"Janice!" Evelyn screamed in horror, "she just lost her baby and hasn't fully recovered yet! Are you trying to kill her?! You vicious bitch! No wonder you can't find a partner!"

I couldn't remember how many times Janice had done this and I felt disgusted. So I pushed Evelyn away and took a bottle of liquid from Mila's bag, pointing it at Janice's face," A vicious bitch, you said." "What are you gonna do?" yelled Evelyn.

"The poison made by an evil witch can destroy her face," I said coldly and uncapped the bottle, wanting the pour the liquid on Janice's face.

"Lauren!"

"No!"

They screamed at the same time.

Janice, who had been "unconscious" the whole time, instantly rolled aside, terrified. She stared at the bottle of "poison" in my hand in horror and moved even faster than Evelyn who was trying to save her.

I got up calmly and dropped a drip of that so-called poison on my hand in their petrified gazes. I sneered at Janice, "A newly launched perfume. Wanna try?"

Realizing what she just did, Janice's face turned pale as paper and froze. She was completely stunned and her eyes were wide open.

"In the past, I didn't give a damn about your little tricks but now I'm sick and tired of them," I said wryly, "I don't know what Manuel promised you, but don't lay your fingers on things that don't belong to you."

I screwed the cap back on the bottle and gave it back to Mila. Then I walked past Michael and left. Michael opened his mouth and wanted to say something to me but I didn't give him a chance. I didn't even wanna look at him. "You're a badass, Lauren. Too bad that it's my perfume," said Mila.

"I'll buy you a new one..." I suddenly froze because I could feel someone watching me and that gaze made me extremely uncomfortable. It was gross and filled with desire. But when I looked back, I didn't see who it was. Was it just a delusion?

Maybe. I thought to myself.
