Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 459

Sylvia’s POV:

By the time we climbed out of the bathtub, it was almost dawn. I put on my clothes and cuddled with Rufus for a while longer. Then, I had to leave, albeit reluctantly.

Before I left, we put on a dramatic act.

I violently opened the door and Rufus followed me, apologizing to me humbly.

“Sylvia, can you give me one more chance? Please! I beg of you!”

“F**k off, you cheating piece of shit! I loved you and trusted you, yet you had the audacity to do this!” I cursed loudly and even shed tears.

Rufus didn’t expect me to act so exaggeratedly. For a moment, he seemed stunned and didn’t respond. Finally, he stepped forward and whispered, “You don’t have to act so real. Just be casual.”

I quickly pushed his face away and hissed, “Only by being more real will Geoffrey believe it.”

Then, there came the footsteps of servants downstairs. I hurried to strike while the iron was hot and continued to curse at Rufus, “You f*****g liar! You said that I was the only woman in your life. Yet you hooked up with someone else right when I turned my back! You scumbag! I’ll never forgive you!”

My loud curses soon attracted many servants and soldiers.

“Will you drop it already? People are staring!” Rufus also joined in on the acting. With a cold face and a domineering aura, he said arrogantly, “I’m a prince, God damn it! I deserve more than one woman!”

“Why, you dirty— Shame on you! I was blind and couldn’t see through your lies! Get out of my sight!” Then I slammed the door and left in a huff.

When there was no one around, my angry expression was immediately replaced with a smile. I walked to my accommodations in high spirits.

Rufus and I had put on a good show. Now, we could only wait for the prey to take the bait.

I had secretly left Rufus a small gift in his room. Chuckling to myself, I hoped that he wouldn’t be too angry when he saw it.

But then I felt a little guilty. When I made it to my room, I pushed the matter to the back of my mind and quickly changed my clothes.

Today, Rufus ordered to gather all the troops together. He, the consulate beside him, and Geoffrey were supposed to check on the matter of missing werewolves, while the others would go help with the post-earthquake reconstruction.

But, in fact, the damages in the city were not too serious. We just needed to clean up some debris from collapsed public facilities.

Flora and I were assigned to the disaster area. At this time, the leading guard we had met last night suddenly showed up and greeted us.

“What’s the matter?” I frowned. His smile was unsettling.

“Miss Todd, I just wanted to thank you for helping me last night. My name is Barlow.”

“It was no big deal,” I said lightly.

“No. You saved my life.” Barlow smiled. There was a long scar that ran along the corner of his mouth. I didn’t notice it last night. Now, under the sunlight, I could see it clearly. It was like a ferocious centipede clinging to his face.

“Was there anything else?” I asked hesitantly.

“Yes!” Barlow was very hospitable today. He was a head taller than me, but he squatted slightly so that we were eye level while speaking.

“What is it?”

“The Alpha ordered me to take you and your friends out for sightseeing today,” Barlow said respectfully.

I frowned and thought for a while. Last night, we did talk about sightseeing. I thought Geoffrey was just being polite, but he had actually taken us seriously.

Anyway, now that the fact that I was Rufus’ mate had been exposed, I’d better make good use of it.

I turned to Flora and asked, “Wanna come?”

“Yes!” Flora lit up like a firecracker. “But Harry and the others went on ahead. They might have arrived at the disaster area now.”

“It doesn’t matter. We can go first.” I linked arms with Flora and said to Barlow, “Lead the way.”
