Sylvia's POV:
While I waited for Rufus, I sat in the lobby downstairs. The maid was just about to bring me my third cup of coffee when Rufus finally came.
I quickly stood up and trotted over to him. "How's your mother? Was she able to calm down?"
"She took her medicine and fell asleep. And yes, she calmed down a lot." Rufus took my hand and we headed out together.
Hearing this, I heaved a sigh of relief. "Where are we going now? Back?"
"No. Let's see my father first."
When we caught up to Ethan, distress was written all over his face because of the issue with the post on the Internet. The ministers standing in front of him all had their heads lowered in fear, and nobody dared to speak.
When we came in, the ministers grabbed Rufus ' hands as if they had met their savior.
"Prince Rufus, please talk to the lycan king. He wants to cut off and reset the network of the empire, which means erasing all traces on the Internet today. Not only is it a huge project, but it's also an invasion of the privacy of the public. It will inevitably cause adverse reactions." The one speaking was probably the director of the network review and supervision bureau. He kept pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose and sweat dripped from his forehead to his collar, making him look a little helpless.
Rufus patted him on the shoulder and said reassuringly, "You can all go now. I need to speak with my father alone."
One by one, the ministers filed out of the room. Soon, only Ethan, Rufus, and I were left.
Ethan put down his glasses, asked us to sit down, and waved at his attendants to serve tea.
"I've punished Richard by grounding him. I offer my apologies on his behalf," Ethan said to Rufus and coughed awkwardly.
