The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 684

Edwin's POV:

It never occurred to me that the secret which had been buried for so many years would be discovered by Rufus.

I was in a sour mood. I thought I would be able to hide it forever.

However, Rufus was exceedingly clever and I couldn't keep it under wraps anymore.

I gulped down some cold water to calm my nerves. "You're right. Leonard is Sylvia's biological father."

Rufus' eyes widened slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. "If that's the reality, why didn't Leonard tell me? Didn't he want to recognize Sylvia as his daughter?"

There was an edge of aggressiveness to Rufus ' tone. I was worried Rufus would storm off to confront Leonard right now if I told him that he indeed didn't want to admit Sylvia was his daughter.

I smiled bitterly. "Leonard just doesn't remember. He didn't intend for any of this to happen."

Rufus' eyebrows furrowed. "He forgot? Why? What happened? Was he in an accident?"

"You've heard about the Blood Moon Battle, right? We attacked the second vampire king over a decade ago," I said calmly.

Rufus nodded. "Yes, I know. Leonard held the position of the commanding general then."

"Leonard met Sylvia's mother, Olivia, in the course of that battle." I put the cigarette back between my lips and continued to smoke. "The Moon Goddess designated them to be each other's mate. They fell in love at first sight, and were soon in a relationship."

Rufus also lit a cigarette.

While reminiscing about the past, I would inevitably need a drink. So, I stood up and poured two glasses of whiskey.

"The battle lasted for three months. They were together for that entire period. Leonard had never been as animated as he had been in those three months. He truly loved Olivia."

Leonard had always had a rigid and serious countenance. Although he was good-looking, he was notorious for being intense. As a result, no she-wolf dared to approach him.
