Chapter 15 Chapter 15 She dared not answer his calls! Atlas put on his military cap and strode out. Only after he had left the military base did the others dare to speak. "What's wrong with Prince Atlas these past few days? He seems so volatile, one whispered. "By all accounts, his rut should be over, and his emotions should have stabilized." "Must be some royal family business. Best not to speculate." "Indeed." Royal affairs were forbidden to discuss. To protect themselves, they never openly discussed anything concerning the Imperial family, to avoid trouble.
Prince Atlas, with a scowl, arrived at the Imperial Academy. President Taylor, receiving the news, became incredibly anxious, as if a few more white hairs had sprouted instantly! "What in the world is he doing here?" Director Silas, standing nearby, whispered, "Actually, Prince Atlas was here a few days ago. He even stayed in a girls' dorm for a night." Davis was stunned. "Such a thing happened?" He'd only been off-world for a few days on a research trip! How could this have happened so quickly? Director Silas nodded.
"The Prince was in the middle of his rut, and Colonel Lewis instructed us not to let the news get out." The two spoke as they headed towards the College of Military dorms. They had no choice; Atlas was currently there. Today, Atlas wore his military uniform, radiating a stern, unapproachable aura. For a moment, no one recognized him as Layla's 'little pup' from just a few days ago. And naturally, no one dared to make such a connection. After all, in Prince Atlas's presence, they barely dared to lift their heads.
11:52 Wed, Jan 7 Chapter 15 Atlas emerged from the empty dorm, his face thunderous. Clearly, he'd drawn a blank; Layla was nowhere to be found. This woman is something else. Filed for divorce and then vanished? ชร 65 vouchery Davis nervously stepped forward. "Your Highness, is everything alright? Is there anything I can do?" Atlas asked with a dark expression, "Where is Layla?* Davis looked utterly confused. Who's Layla? Director Silas immediately realized.
"Layla must be at basic training!" And for freshman basic training, they had to turn off their optical computers and cut off all external communication. They suddenly understood why Prince Atlas's handsome face looked so grim. It seemed the young woman had been scared off by him. Atlas froze. He hadn't gone through freshman basic training, so he naturally wasn't aware of this rule. However, the realization that Layla wasn't intentionally avoiding him inexplicably brightened his mood slightly. Still, Atlas's expression remained as severe as ever as he turned and left.
Davis and Silas both let out a sigh of relief. 'Finally, he's gone!' Davis asked Silas, "That girl, Layla-which family does she belong to?" "It's a rather complicated story," Silas said, relaying everything he'd found out about Layla's background to Davis. Davis frowned. "By all rights, being noticed by Prince Atlas is a good thing, especially after having the honor of being with him through his rut. If Layla were truly a Sullivan heiress, she'd have a strong chance of becoming the Ninth Princess Consort. But if she's already left the Sullivan family, then it's hard to say," Silas nodded.

"Exactly. That's why Colonel Lewis told us to keep it quiet." ***** Aboard the aero-vehicle, Layla had no idea Atlas had gone to the Imperial Academy looking for her. 11:52 Wed, Jan 7 Chapter 15 After a short nap, she woke to find Annie Knight, who had been sitting beside her, gone. 'That cat is restless. Layla stretched her wrists, got up, and decided to walk around the aero-vehicle. As luck would have it, she ran into Caleb James and Leon Baker. Shifters had strong regenerative abilities, and Caleb's physical injuries had largely healed.
But the blow to his pride and the humiliation he'd suffered wouldn't heal anytime soon. The most frustrating part was that he still didn't understand how he'd lost! 82 55 youchers Leon, however, greeted Layla cheerfully. "Layla, why are you alone? Didn't your husband come for basic training?" Caleb shot Leon a speechless glare. 'Was this kid doing it on purpose?' Layla frowned slightly upon hearing this. Why was everyone so interested in her husband? She just wanted to find an excuse to brush them off.
The next moment, she heard Caleb say, "Layla, I asked the Sullivans, and none of them know about your marriage. So you're not actually married. You just found someone to help you get even. You're still mad at me for being with Xanthe, aren't you?" Caleb refused to believe that remarkable man was just an ordinary freshman. Even less did he believe that Layla, barely dumped by him, could immediately marry a man superior to him. 'It must be fake!' Layla looked at Caleb and shook her head. 'This man is truly mediocre and deluded.
If she wanted to deal with him, she wouldn't need anyone else; she could take him down herself. As for Atlas beating Caleb up, that was purely Caleb's bad luck; he'd brought it upon himself. Layla said blandly, "I am indeed married. And Xanthe actually helped me arrange it. What, didn't she tell you?" "What?" Caleb froze. Xanthe helped her get married? Caleb blurted out, "How is that possible? I know you and Xanthe don't get along. Why would she help you find 11:52 Wed, Jan 7 Chapter 15 such an incredible husband?" Layla looked at him scornfully.
"I got married through the Genetic Pairing Program." 82 55 vouchers Leon, on the other hand, looked shocked. "Could it be that Xanthe used your optical computer to match you with a spouse-oh, the same person who beat up Caleb that day?" Layla nodded approvingly. "It seems you're much smarter than Caleb." Leon scratched his head and chuckled. "Heh, thanks." Caleb was speechless. Layla found Caleb so repulsive she couldn't stand to stay, so she turned and left. Caleb, however, remained rooted to the spot for a long time. He asked incredulously, "But why would Xanthe do such a thing?" "Why else?
Xanthe clearly has feelings for you. The only way you two could naturally get married is if Layla married someone else." "Impossible! Xanthe isn't like that! Applying for marriage through the Prime AI system is too random; who knows what kind of person you'd get? Xanthe is very kind; even if she dislikes Layla, she wouldn't play with Layla's lifelong happiness!" Leon shook his head, unconvinced that Caleb's new fiancée was genuinely innocent. Caleb took out his optical computer, intending to ask Xanthe.
Seeing his optical computer disconnected, he belatedly realized they couldn't communicate with the outside world. He finally mumbled, "Xanthe would never be that kind of person!" ***** After over a dozen hours of flight, the aero-vehicle carrying the Imperial Academy's new students successfully arrived at Training Delta. Training Delta's environment was particularly suitable for the students to train, especially those from the College of Military. Four students shared a dorm. Layla was roomed with Annie Knight and two other female troopers. Annie frowned, looking at the quad dorm.
"It's so small, and four of us have to live here? We'll be squeezed to death!" The other two female troopers, whose shifter tiers and family backgrounds weren't as distinguished as Annie's, dared not speak. 11:52 Wed, Jan 7 Chapter 15 82 55 vouchers Layla, however, simply claimed the bed nearest the door, put away her belongings, kicked off her shoes, and flopped onto it. Annie sat on the edge of Layla's bed, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Layla, didn't you get enough sleep on the aero-vehicle?
Or did you and your little pup have a wild night, wearing him out so much he couldn't make basic training, and leaving you too tired to wake up?" 田 AD Comment Send gift No Ads 11:52 Wed, Jan 7 Editorial Board Editorial Board Our editorial team works behind the scenes to refine each chapter, maintain consistency, and deliver the best reading experience.
