The Despised Luna's Comeback
Caden's POV: When Candice accused Rosaline of having an improper relationship with Jasper, I could barely contain my anger. Because I had indeed heard rumors that Jasper and Candice had a marriage agreement. But for some reason, the Thunderune Pack never mentioned it again after that. Now, out of nowhere, Candice suddenly appeared, publicly denouncing Rosaline as the third party in her engagement with Jasper and even claiming they were living together. There's no smoke without fire. If there wasn't something suspicious going on between Rosaline and Jasper, why would Candice be this jealous? The more I listened, the more irritated I became. But when I saw that Rosaline was about to be slapped, I instinctively stepped in to protect her. Just then, someone suddenly shouted, "Jasper is here!" I frowned and turned my head, only to see Jasper walking through the entrance. Hmph. Coming to the rescue, is he? When the reporters saw Jasper, they swarmed toward him like sharks smelling blood. "Jasper, is it true that the internationally renowned pianist Candice is your fiancée?" "Jasper, was your engagement with Ms. Reese an arranged marriage between your families? Why has there never been any news about it before?" "Jasper, is it true that you and Rosaline are living together, as rumored online? Are you serious about her? Will you break off your engagement with Ms. Reese for her?" The flood of questions made me quite pleased. I decided to step back and watch how he would handle this mess. Jasper's POV: "Step aside!" I pushed through the crowd and walked straight to Rosaline. "Rosaline, are you alright?" I had only learned about the situation after seeing the news online. What I didn't expect was that Candice would be here, too.Rosaline shook her head and said, "Jasper, you came at the right time. There's a woman here claiming to be your fiancée. Don't you think you owe your fans an explanation?" Candice's beautiful eyes dimmed slightly. She took a deep breath, then maintained a composed and elegant smile as she looked at me. "Jasper, long time no see." I shot her a cold glance, my tone sharp and distant. "Apologize to Rosaline." Candice's expression stiffened. "Why should I apologize to her? She shamelessly seduced my fiancé, and you expect me to apologize? What a joke!" "When did I ever become your fiancé?" I asked icily. Candice's face darkened. "Jasper, do you dare to swear that we were never engaged?" I frowned. "Candice, our engagement was annulled a long time ago. Stop making a scene." It was true that we once had an arranged engagement. The Thunderune Pack and Candice's Phantom Pack had been close allies for generations. When we were children, the Alphas of our packs had arranged our engagement. But when the Thunderune Pack fell into decline, when I was at my lowest, Candice left me without a word and followed another man overseas. I never had much affection for Candice to begin with. But having my supposed fiancée run off with someone else without a single word was an unbearable humiliation for any werewolf. From that moment on, I never mentioned her name again. Later, I met Rosaline. Rosaline encouraged me, gave me hope, and helped me crawl out of that darkest moment. She was the one who helped me rebuild the Thunderune Pack. To me, Candice was nothing more than a stranger. Not a fiancée, not even a friend. After hearing my words, a reporter immediately said, "Jasper, you just said that your engagement with Ms. Reese was annulled. Does that mean there was indeed an engagement in the past?" Before I could answer, Candice cut in. "Of course! And our engagement has never been annulled! It's still in effect! Rosaline is just a shameless mistress!" I pursed my lips and spoke with quiet authority, "Candice, let me say this one more time. I have nothing to do with you. Please do not call yourself my fiancée ever again."Candice's face paled. Her voice trembled slightly as she asked, "Jasper, why are you being so heartless? Is it because of Rosaline?" She stepped closer, reaching out to grab my arm. "I know you have some misunderstandings about me, but back then—" Before she could finish, I calmly pulled my arm away and coldly cut her off. "I don't want to talk about the past. Please don't bring it up again. From now on, watch yourself. Stop slandering or harming Rosaline. That's all I have to say." After finishing my piece, I turned to Rosaline, my voice softening. "Rosaline, let's go." Rosaline clearly had no desire to stay and argue any further. She gave a small nod. I looked at her beautiful face and smiled gently. "Let's go." Turning, I walked toward the entrance with Rosaline following behind me. But just as we were leaving, I heard a cold voice call out from behind us. "Rosaline!" Rosaline paused in her steps and turned to see Caden approaching. She looked at him and said softly, "Thank you for today."
