Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 1005

Flora’s POV:

Shocked and caught off-guard, I stammered, “What do you mean?”

How could Crystal’s photos still be in my Facebook? After what happened that year, Laura had done everything in her power to ensure that no trace of Sylvia Todd would ever exist again. Also, I double- checked it, so there was no way Rufus would find out about it.

Besides, I seldom posted her photos since she didn’t like too much attention even on the Internet.

Was Rufus bluffing? Could it be that he was just trying to pull a fast one on me?

“I mean you have known Crystal five years ago. You are lying!” Rufus said coldly.

As panic gripped my heart, I trembled internally. If Rufus got mad, not even the dead would feel safe.

“Tell me, how did you know Crystal?” Rufus persisted in asking.

I f0rced myself to answer, “We had only recently met in the capital city this time she came here.”

I was so nervous but did my best to reassure myself that Rufus was just making things up. If he had any other evidence, he would have already shown it instead of asking this same question over and over again.

The only reasonable explanation for Rufus’ line of questions was that he was also not sure about my relationship with Crystal and wanted to intimidate me into admitting it.

While I was mulling over the possibility, Rufus suddenly presented me with a screenshot proof. It was the photo I took when Crystal was trying on the dress that Rufus had given her for a ball.

The photo was so beautiful that I was so excited and posted it online, but after seeing the huge sensation it had later caused, I swiftly took it down.

Maybe it was because I deleted it by myself and it was not removed thoroughly, which explained why Rufus had no trouble restoring it.

For a brief second, I was terrified, but then I noticed that Crystal’s face wasn’t visible in this picture. Since she had her back to the moon, all that was visible was the side of her face.

Rufus was bluffing! I knew it!

“This is not Crystal.” I denied again. My tone was much firmer than before. Crystal was right. No one was better than Rufus in playing tricks. He almost had me admit the truth when he even had no solid proof. How terrible was that.

“This she-wolf also was a student of the military school, right?”

Sure enough, he was bluffing! He obviously wasn’t sure whether the person in the photo was Crystal or not. Had I not been firm just now, Rufus could have fooled me.

What a sleazy rascal he was! I couldn’t believe I was so terrified that I almost cried just a while ago!

“I don’t know,” I answered nonchalantly. Anyway, this was the only photo of Crystal on the Internet. As long as I didn’t admit, Rufus couldn’t do anything.

“Impossible,” Rufus said firmly. I continued to fool him, “I uploaded it merely because I thought the shot was quite beautiful.”

“Then tell me where you got this photo.” It seemed like Rufus wouldn’t stop questioning me until he got something from me today.

“I don’t remember. I’ve forgotten about that. It’s been so long.” I was intentionally vague.

Rufus smiled again and added, “The background of the photo suggests that it might have been taken in the dormitory. The window is facing the birch forest, which means this is the girls’ dormitory building in Area A. Judging from the height, it should be on the tenth floor. As far as I know, your room at that time was on the tenth floor in that building, and that students who resided there were mostly from the same class.”

Suddenly, Rufus stopped and gave me a stern look.

I panicked again, and I nearly lost it. I was at a loss for what to do next. A trap seemed to have been laid for me, and I knew it.

“Tell me, who is she? My patience is already running thin.” Rufus’ threatening voice made me anxious again. That was obviously his final warning to me.

At this point, my mind was in a mess and I couldn’t do anything. Even if I made up a random name, he would easily find out I was lying if he looked into it. And I also couldn’t tell him the name Crystal was using.

God, what should I do?
