The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 102

Sylvia's POV:

It was the first time I heard Warren say so much, and he looked serious. Every word he said made me angry but also sobered me up.

I had to admit that every word he said was right. I then realized I was being too selfish. It would be such a grand ball. Richard would attend it with Lucy, who was noble. If Rufus brought a slave with him, he would only be laughed at by everyone.

Maybe the aloof and arrogant Rufus didn't care about what other people thought. But I was different. I didn't want to become his weakness.

I didn't want him to become a laughingstock because of me.

It was enough for me to bear such malicious gossip alone.

I stayed awake all night. The heavy thoughts made me toss and turn on the bed. As soon as the sun rose, I got up. I picked up the quilt that Flora had kicked on the floor, tucked her in, and walked out of the room quietly.

Yana yawned and complained, "I sang lullabies for you the whole night. Why couldn't you fall asleep?"

I held the horizontal bar for a while, couldn't bear to tell her the truth. Actually, since Yana was not really good at singing, I automatically blocked her voice as soon as she began to sing.

"You're not answering me," Yana said aggrievedly.

I coughed and pretended to be very distressed. "Maybe I can fall asleep next time if you try bel canto."

"Then I'll give you a bel canto right now."
