Chapter 107
Ferris didn’t know I had arrived yet.
My eyelashes lowered slightly. Whether in the past or present, I was always just fodder for conversation when Ferris and his friends were bored after meals–a “former mate” who was never truly taken to heart.
“Miss, since you’re here, aren’t you going in?”
The waiter at the door reminded me softly. Though respectful in tone, he inadvertently interrupted my momentary contemplation.
Because of his voice, the originally lively club hall instantly quieted down somewhat. Among the clinking glasses and toasts, many people cast glances my way, with expressions of surprise or snickering
Among them, Ferris sat in the most central position, his dark eyes clearly freezing when they saw me. He picked up his wine glass and took a sip, using this to mask the emotional fluctuation that flashed through his eyes.
My gaze rested on him lightly for a moment, then I turned to the waiter with a calm tone: “Never mind, I won’t go in. I wouldn’t want to disturb everyone’s refined enjoyment.
As soon as I spoke, those playboys who had been tense immediately relaxed, some even quietly touching their noses, wondering–how did she appear at this kind of place?
Seeing me “tactfully” leave, everyone resumed their relaxed postures.
“Alpha Ferris, did your mate just hear what we were saying?” someone asked half–jokingly.
Ferris didn’t respond. He just suddenly stood up, his movements swift, a trace of irritation appearing between his brows: “I have something to do, I need to leave first.”
With that, he had already strode quickly out of the club.
Not long after, someone quietly passed news of “Candy” to Ashley’s ears.
At this moment, Ashley was in a complete panic-
She never expected that the medical post she had plagiarized from a forum years ago would be dug up from discontinued data and reposted online!
Within hours, online public opinion spiraled out of control. Tags like “academic fraud” and “deceiving the public” quickly dominated trending lists, with tens of thousands sharing and discussing, angrily calling her a fraud and plagiarist.
Ashley was making calls to suppress the trending topics while her face turned pale. Just then, she learned that at

Chapter 107
Ferris’s club, an omega woman named Candy had appeared
She suddenly looked up, her eyes flashing with cold light.
“Thank you for telling me,” she replied coldly, then dialed a string of numbers.
“Give that woman named Candy at Silverridge Club–a lesson.”
Her tone was cold to the bone.
No one could steal her Ferris.
The current Ashley was no longer that low–ranking omega who could be trampled by anyone. She had climbed step by step from the mire, relying never on pity, but on her claws and fangs.
I had just walked to the stone steps outside the club entrance and hadn’t yet pressed my car key when I suddenly heard urgent footsteps behind me.
A large hand carrying a familiar scent suddenly reached from behind and grabbed my wrist.
“Aurora-”
I turned around, and it was indeed Ferris.
He was breathing heavily, his bangs disheveled by the wind, his golden–brown pupils like a predatory beast’s gleaming eyes in the night–sharp and dangerous.
After a brief silence, Ferris said: “Don’t take what you heard seriously.”
This was the first time he had said comforting words.
But I didn’t feel much better. My hand hanging at my side tightened slightly, then I forced a bitter smile.
“Mm, I know. I’m used to it.”
