It wasn’t until then that I noticed that there was someone else inside the car.
Before I could think any further, Warren opened the door and bent over to get the person out of the car.
My eyes widened when I saw who the person was. It was Flora!
Sylvia’s POV
I was surprised that Warren actually brought Flora here. Then I soon noticed there was something wrong. Flora struggled in Warren’s arms. It seemed that she didn’t come here out of her own desire. “Put me down! I can walk by myself, you know!”
However, Warren did not act so gentle and obedient as he would have before. He continued to grip Flora’s arms tightly and did not budge.
Everyone stood there, stunned. No one seemed to have any idea as to what on earth was happening.
Owen was the first to react. Anger registered clear on his face as he shouted, “What are you doing? Put her down! Have you no decorum? We’re in public!”
It was only upon hearing those words when Warren put Flora down. Flora, cunning as she was, made a run for it the moment she was placed down. There was something in her that couldn’t stand being at such close distance to Warren.
Warren, expecting Flora would run away, quickly made a tight grab at her wrist.
“And where are you going?”
Flora struggled to free herself and glared at Warren. “Let me go!”
“I would if you stop running away all the time!”
“If you let go of me now, I swear I won’t run away.”
“Well, I don’t believe that so I won’t.” Warren instead held Flora back in his arms and did not let go of her as he said.
Flora’s face had turned red from her intense anger. She however could not create an even bigger commotion, so she resorted to looking at me for help.
As I stepped forward to help my friend, Warren gave me a threatening look and I stopped. I stood there rooted and stunned like everyone again.
I could feel the shivers of fear going down my neck. I had never seen Warren give such a menacing look up until that moment. I had no choice anymore, so I just looked over at Flora with a desperate and helpless expression. I felt awful, but there was truly nothing I could do to help her anymore.
Flora seemed so mad at me, the look on her face could only mean she wanted to end our friendship.
I was still helpless, so I settled for giving her a strained smile.
Someone cleared their throat to interrupt the silent conversation Flora and I were having. It was Owen.
To those who were from the younger generations, Owen had always been this revered figure. After all, anyone who had come face to face with his deadly, expressionless stare had always ended up terrified.
Flora wouldn’t dare to speak a word then and instead she just stood still.
“What on earth is going on here, Warren?” Looking at Warren directly, Owen asked with a commanding tone. “This girl looks… familiar. Is she from our pack?”
Leonard was surprised at this question at first. After taking a moment to examine Flora, something seemed to click in his mind. “Yes, I have seen you before. Wasn’t your family the ones that sold the rat jerky?”
Flora was similarly shocked and her head shot up. “Do you remember my family, Sir?”
Leonard responded with a nod and a smile. He continued to speak with a kinder tone, “Of course, I remember. One of our pack’s most famous specialties is our rat jerky. And if I remember correctly, your family’s rat jerky is the most delicious kind.”
The moment Flora heard those words, her eyes lit up. “Wow, Sir! I didn’t expect that you knew of us at all! It’s an ambition of mine to make our family’s rat jerky famous among all the packs, but not everyone seems to be accepting of it.”
“That’s normal. Only a select amount of people enjoy rat jerky, after all. Since the Internet is very developed now, I suggest you start selling it online.”
“It’s something that I have thought about, but right now I have my study to focus on.”
Leonard nodded in agreement. “Yes, you put your study first. It’s very important. In the future, you can start thinking about it then I hope.”
Warren was displeased at the sight of Flora and Leonard engaging in such a light conversation.
He cleared his throat loudly, purposefully getting everyone’s attention again. He held Flora’s hand even tighter as he began to speak. “Allow me to introduce to you all…”
Before Warren could go on his whole spiel, Flora abruptly interrupted him. “You don’t need to introduce me anymore. Everyone here knows now that I’m just an ordinary Omega. There’s no need for that speech anymore.”
Leonard smiled while keeping quiet, but he gave a humored look towards Flora.
On the other hand, Owen had appeared more impatient. He showed an annoyed look and asked Warren again to explain himself.
Flora bowed her head, even if she looked like she wanted to say more of her piece. There was a side to Flora that was brave and unyielding to f0rce, but there was also a side to her that was sometimes cowardly.
Warren finally announced who Flora was, with pride. “Everyone, this woman is my mate!”
Owen could not believe the words he had just heard. His usually composed exterior snapped, his face now twitching with shock.
I, too, stood there astounded. That was very bold of Warren to do. From the looks of it, it seemed like he couldn’t hold it in for another moment.
Warren began to speak again, whether or not we recovered from our shock irrelevant to him. Warren looked directly at Owen and said with confidence, “And she is pregnant with my child. Dad, you’re going to be a grandfather.”
Flora’s POV
As soon as Warren finished speaking, the entire crowd gasped in astonishment.
I was so enraged that I aggressively grabbed Warren’s arm and scolded, “What nonsense are you talking about? Who is your mate?”
Silence reigned. Warren’s announcement seemed to have sent everyone into shock.
I cast a fearful glance in Owen’s direction. I was scared that he wouldn’t be able to accept the news and that the stress would make him faint. After all, I was just a mere Omega. Warren was way out of my league. Contrary to my expectations, Owen was overjoyed and looked at me with ecstasy.
“You… You are pregnant?”
It was rare for such a calm serious man to display such a rapturous expression. I was a little embarrassed and at a loss on how to answer him. I reflexively nodded.
To my surprise, Owen laughed loudly and happily exclaimed, “Oh my God! I’m going to be a grandfather!”
