DreameNovelChapter 0179 Chapter 0179 Ella POV My father was staring atexpectantly. I felt silly for how nervous I was, I knew that I had done nothing wrong. Facing his anger wasn't something I was used to. I took a deep breath to calm myself.
"Alexander and I spent the afternoon figuring out a use for the land we gained from David," I said. "That's why we had the maps out." "What do you mean by that?" he asked. "It's farmland; we'll farm it." "David damaged the farmland," I explained. "He salted the earth so we wouldn't be able to plant there." The look of rage on his face only grew. "That rotten cheat," he said in outrage. "So the land is useless to us? Why didn't you callimmediately?" "It's not entirely useless," I said. "We decided the best option is to create a solar farm. If we fill the space with solar panels, we can connect to the electrical grid, and with any luck, the pack could becenergy- independent." I gestured vaguely, trying to gauge his reaction. "Alexander consulted his team, and they think it will work. The notes in the notebook were from their findings, and the map was a proposed layout for the panels." The anger drained from his face almost immediately. He sighed, running a hand over his jaw. "I'm sorry. I thought you were hiding something fromagain. I was frustrated." "I'm not hiding anything," I said, my voice softening. “I actually wanted to talk to you about it earlier, but you weren't hfrom your meetings yet and I didn't want to interrupt. I promised, after what happened last time, that I'd cto you when I needed help. I haven't broken that promise." His expression shifted to one of remorse. "I'm sorry I jumped to conclusions," he said, his voice quieter now. "I just worry about you." S "I know you do," I replied with a smile. "And I'm glad. I'm lucky to have parents who care so much about my well -being." He chuckled lightly and pulledinto a hug. "Of course I worry-you're my little girl," he said, pressing a kiss to my temple.

His frustration was completely understandable after everything we'd been through in the past few months, but the fact that he was willing to listen-and to apologize -remindedof how fortunate I was to have him by my side.
Not everyone had that kind of support. Thinking of the way Diana treated Alexander, I realized how rare it truly was to have parents like mine. I would never take them for granted again.
"What had you in such a bad mood?" I asked as I pulled away from the hug.
"You haven't seen the news then?" he said, sounding worried. I shook my head and my father sighed. "David and Amanda have announced their wedding date. It's the sas yours and Alexanders." My eyes went wide as I stared at him. Of course that would upset my father. It was too late to change our date. If we did, he would have to issue a public apology for the inconvenience to the other alphas. We'd already mailed out save-the-date cards.
I shook off my surprise the best I could. “I see," I said softly. "That's unfortunate, but we'll handle it." "I thought you would be hurt,” he said in surprise.

"Of course," I replied, "we'll want our engineers to consult with his and make sure everything accurate. All we've worked out so far are our best guesses based on the information we had on hand." "If it's all right with you, I'll pass the map and notes on to them tomorrow," he said. "I have a meeting first thing in the morning."
"I think that's a great idea," I said with a nod. "The sooner we can startputting the project together, the better. I want to make sure David knows he hasn't gotten the best of us with this little stunt. П Chapter 0180 Chapter 0180
