The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 162

Richard's POV:

Just as I walked past the main gate of the imperial palace with an army squad, I saw Rufus ' car suddenly lose control. It dashed toward the gate and skidded to a halt at the last minute.

It looked strange. Rufus was an excellent driver. I wondered how he lost control.

I walked to the car in confusion. "Rufus?"

The windows of this car had one-way glass. I couldn't see what was happening inside. I waited for a while, but there was no response from him. He didn't even bother rolling down the window. I suppressed my anger and knocked on the window.

Then, the window finally rolled down, leaving only a small gap. Rufus gripped the steering wheel with both hands and glared at me. "What's the matter?"

I forced a benign smile. "What happened? Your car almost lost control now."

As I spoke, I managed to peek inside through the gap but didn't see anyone inside.

Rufus didn't answer me.

"Do you need my help?" I knocked on the window again. I wanted Rufus to roll the window further down so that I could see what was going on inside the car.

Strangely, the people I had appointed to keep an eye on Rufus reported that Sylvia had got in Rufus' car, and they had gone out together. I wondered why he came back alone.

Rufus sneered. "Anything else? If not, you can leave now."

Anger surged through my veins, but I managed to control my anger. "Father wanted to see you this afternoon, but you weren't in the palace."
