The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 339

Rufus' POV:

The couple appeared in unison outwardly, although it did not seem to be the case inwardly. The male wolf walked fast and kept a cold face, without a hint of fear at all.

Meanwhile, the she-wolf he came with had dull and lifeless eyes, carrying a gray doll in her arms. "Those are the parents of the boy. I met them at the crematory when I was there," Sylvia whispered.

"Yes, I figured. While you were in the forbidden forest, Blair updated me all about it. He came back before you entered the forest for your test. The rescue was slightly delayed because he was still interrogating the couple. He came to our rescue as soon as he finished questioning the parents," I leaned down and whispered in Sylvia's ear.

The male wolf stood straight and confessed everything. "It was Prince Richard. He offered a great sum to buy my son's life and even asked me to slander Prince Rufus."

When the she-wolf heard this, her eyes widened with disbelief and she looked as if the world around her collapsed. She broke out into hysterical tears and grabbed the male wolf's clothes. "How could you do this? How could you? That was our baby. He was just a little boy. How could you bear to sell his life just like that?!"

Sylvia lowered her head, not having the heart to watch this scene anymore.

I put my arm around her shoulder for comfort.

It seemed that not all parents felt sorry for the death of their child. The male wolf's reaction differed greatly from his wife. Apparently, he didn't think this was such a big deal.

"What do you mean? There's nothing wrong with what I did. If we lose a child, we can just have another. What's important is that we have the money. Money is most important to me."

When my father heard this, he got even angrier and pounded the table. "Guards, take this man away! I am sentencing him to a permanent exile!"

The cold male wolf broke character and knelt down in desperation. "Please, Your Majesty! I admit I was wrong now! Just please don't exile me. I... I can make up for it. I can return the money Prince Richard gave me!"

But my father refused to hear any more from him. He simply waved his hand and gestured for the guards to drag the man away.

On the other hand, Richard was just as terrified and did not dare to say a word.

"It seems now that the truth has been brought to light." My mother stood up and walked over to my father's side. She had a calm expression on her face, which sharply contrasted the gloom on my father's face.
