Chapter 42
It has been a long time since she stepped out of this Mansion. Maybe it’s time that she actually started to live her life again.
Although her parents death have hurt her a lot, she can’t possibly shut herself from the rest of the world forever, righ
She pushed the door open and walked out of her room.
As usual, Matthew was standing guard outside her room.
He looked at Acella with shock in his eyes. Obviously, he wasn’t expecting this at all.
“Miss Acella….is everything alright?” Matthew asked.
Ever since he started guarding Acella, he had never seen her dressed like this before. He had also never seen her so…..full of life. It’s the first time.
And he really didn’t know how he was supposed to react to it.
Acella looked down at herself. She suddenly felt insecure. Has she gone too far in dressing herself up?
She hasn’t done this in a long time….maybe her skills have gone out of touch?
“What is wrong? Do I look weird?” Acella asked softly.
Matthew immediately shook his head. “No, no, you don’t look weird at all! You look different. A lot happier” Matthew said. truthfully.
Acella blushed at the compliment.
“Are you going somewhere, Miss?” Mathew asked. It’s his duty to protect Acella so it means that if she’s going on then he’s
going out too.
“Ah…yes. I haven’t gone out since….since my parents died. I can’t keep staying inside forever, right?” Acella asked.
Mathew smiled happily and nodded. He knows that the alpha is worried about Acella. He felt happy now that she was finally willing to stop shutting herself in.
“Of course! You are still young. Miss Acella! You should go out more and meet friends! You can’t keep locking yourself up inside! Mathew said.
Acella nodded her head. She tried to bypass Matthew and leave but she saw that he was ready to follow her.
She turned to him. “What are you doing?” She asked.
Mathew gave an embarrassed smile. “Following you Miss. I can’t let you go on your own” Matthew said. As Acella’s b*dyguard, he knows that she has suicidal tendencies. He can’t just let her go off on her own.
Even if she looks happy now, who knows what she will do when she’s all alone? He can’t take the risk at all.
“I’m just going out. Strolling around the pack and seeing what has changed in the past few months. You really are not going to let me go on my own?” Acella asked.
She was starting to get upset. For the past few months, she had been trapped in this place. She just wanted to experience freedom and breath in fresh air for a few hours. Why will she let some b*dyguard go with her? Isn’t it just going to spoil her fun then?

Mathew bowed his head. He too felt that Acella was starting to get upset but he just can’t let her go on her own. Not after everything that’s been going on for the past few days. He needs to be responsible for her at all costs.
“I’m really sorry Miss but no. I can’t do that. I have to be by your side at all times. After everything that has happened to you…I just can’t take any risks” Mathew said.
Acella pouted her l*ps as the reality of what her life is like right now dawned on her. Everyone thinks that she is crazy and that she is going to hurt herself any chance that she gets.
No one wants to listen to her. They just brand her as a crazy wolf!
“You also think that I’m crazy right?” Acella asked.
Matthew was taken aback by this question. He never expected it.
“What?! Of course not, Miss Acella! I would never think that you are crazy!” Mathew said. He knows that she has some issues. and he had heard her crying herself to sleep most nights.
Maybe her parents death affected her a lot and she’s depressed. But she’s far from crazy!
“No? I think that you are just afraid to admit it! You don’t want to get in trouble with my brother! I’m telling you, I’m not crazy! I’m not crazy at all! Can all of you please stop treating me like some mentally deranged woman who will do something to hurt herself and everyone else around her immediately she gets the chance to?!” Acella asked. She was starting to get frustrated.
Maybe her parents death affected her a lot and maybe she went off track for a while. But all of this is no reason for them to treat her the way they are all treating her right now!
Mathew didn’t know what to say after she said this. It’s true that she isn’t crazy. It’s also true that she won’t go around hurting random people. But he is scared that she will hurt herself.
Last time, she had almost drowned herself

Matthew can see that the alpha really cares about his sister. He didn’t want another tragedy to befall them immediately after they lost their parents.
“I’m really sorry Miss Acella but there’s nothing that I can do besides following you. I know that you won’t hurt anyone else. I’m just worried that…. you’ll end up hurting yourself. I don’t want that to happen to you” Mathew said.
Acella had a shocked look on her face. She was pale. “what?”
“The last time….you had almost drowned yourself in the bathtub. If the alpha and I didn’t come then you…. Your brother won’t be able to take it if anything happens to you. He really cares about you. That is why I just can’t let you run off on your own!” Mathew said.
“I never….I never wanted to drown myself that day! I had just

Mathew was still unfazed. He couldn’t take the risk. Not even if she wasn’t trying to hurt herself that day.
He had seen that she isn’t alright. She needs help. But she doesn’t want to admit it. She doesn’t want to seek the help she
needs.
All that they can do for now is make sure that she is never left unattended.
“I’m really sorry but I just can’t do that Miss Acella. I need to keep an eye on you at all times. I can’t let you go on your own. 1 won’t get in your way. You won’t even know that I’m here. I just need to watch you” Mathew said.
“My brother is the one who put you up to it right? He’s the one who Acella asked.

Her eyes were red and she seemed like she was about to burst out crying any second now.
