The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 241

Lucy's POV:

The usual indifference on Susan's face changed. She nodded and comforted me. "Have a seat first. Let me check your belly."

"My belly's just fine. I had to lie. Otherwise, they wouldn't let me see you." Sitting down, I hated Richard even more.

"No. That baby is my nephew. I will not rest until I check up on you." Susan smiled. She sighed. "It must be really hard for you and my brother."

I lowered my head, caressing my belly as bitterness filled my heart. If Kyle hadn't sent Susan over to my side, I honestly wouldn't know what to do.

Originally, Susan's name was Ashley. She was also Kyle's biological younger sister. The two siblings had always had a good relationship since their childhood. But ever since their parents separated, so were the kids. Susan left the imperial capital with her mother, while Kyle stayed with his father. It wasn't only until recently that Susan returned to the capital and found Kyle again.

Fortunately, Richard didn't know yet about her identity. The first time that Richard sent me Susan, she secretly delivered message for me.

Before that, I had just resigned to waiting for death. But with Susan, my hope for life was rekindled again.

After giving me a checkup, Susan then started to talk business. "I was able to hook up with one of Prince Richard's confidants."

"Really? Were you able to get anything?" I couldn't wait to ask.

"Only some rumors. Prince Richard apparently plans to deal with Prince Rufus tomorrow. He's going to use some drug that will make Prince Rufus act crazy. And then, he's planning to lure the crazy Prince Rufus to..." Susan's voice trailed off and she looked at me with pity.

"To what? To kill me?" My eyes widened.

Susan nodded sadly. "But I still don't know how and where the plan will take place."

"Maybe I should just run away now. I'm going to die anyway." I grabbed Susan's hand. "I'm almost certain Richard will really create a stunt tomorrow. I refuse to be used by him, even if it means I'm going to die. It's horrible!"
