Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince Chapter 693

Sylvia’s POV:

Rufus always listened to me because he was my boyfriend, but why would Leonard cater my every need? What was she even talking about?

Although Leonard and I knew each other well now, he only treated me the same way an ordinary elder would treat a young person.

Alina just was just talking nonsense.

I scowled and said in a frosty voice, “Alina, today is your big day, so I don’t want to say anything that could upset you. But if you keep pushing…”

She scoffed coldly and stood up, lifting up her dress slightly. She looked down at me coldly and spat out, “My big day? It’s so easy for you to say that. My groom is just the son of the Alpha of a small pack. How could he compare with your mate, Prince Rufus? Or are you trying to mock me?”

Her outburst amused me a little. She didn’t want to let this go. She called me over just so she could vent her anger at me.

“Why don’t you say something? Am I wrong? You’re a hypocrite who always portrays yourself as a weak woman and hoodwinks everyone around.”

Alina’s voice was tight. Her usually pretty face was contorted into a furious expression.

I restrained my emotions, not wanting to argue with her. I didn’t want her to get more worked up.

Perhaps my lack of response made her give up taunting me after a short while.

My body sagged in relief and I slowly calmed down.

I truly couldn’t understand how a practical person like Leonard could have a daughter who always lost control of her emotions.

Given the fact that Alina was one year younger than me, I decided to let go. Arguing with her would actually bring me more suffering.

Alina lifted her dress slightly, walked to the dressing table, and took a box out. “I bought an item at the black market a few days ago, but haven’t been able to figure out how to use it. Can you take a look? Maybe you will know how it works?”

She then took a pendant out of the box.

I recognized it instantly. It was a light pink gem pendant, the same as what I found in Noreen’s lab.

“You’ve already rubbed b***d on it?” I was both surprised and confused. Why had Alina bought a gem that was helpful in identifying b***d relations?

She smiled and fidgeted with the pendant in her hand. “How did you know? Do you also have one?”

“I happened to procure one by chance. I know how to use it, but haven’t had an opportunity to utilize it yet.” I didn’t want to give an elaborate explanation.

Alina snorted and questioned, “Why not use it? This gem looks gorgeous.”

“This gemstone has the ability to identify b***d relatives. You can find out who is related to you if you drip b***d on it. I don’t need it and neither do you,” I said lightly.

Alina didn’t respond. She just watched me with a strange smile.

The more I considered it, the weirder I felt. Alina’s spooky smile made my scalp tingle. Why did she have this gem in her possession? How did she obtain it?

“Why did you ask me to come up here? Just so you could talk nonsense? We’re not exactly confidants, are we?”

If she had asked me to come here just so she could spout this rubbish, it would indeed be weird.

But she had the same gemstone as me and there was this weird smile on her face.

Did she know something?

No. It suddenly struck me that Alina already knew how to use this gem, since she knew she had to rub b***d on it.

I eyed the pink gem in her hand, my stomach churning with unease.

Just then, she spoke again, “Actually, I wasn’t the one who wanted to see you.”

As soon as she said this, another somber voice came from behind me.

“I was.”
