The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 688

Rufus' POV:

The next morning, Sylvia and I went shopping in the city, and I bumped into Leonard on the way. He seemed tired, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Sylvia became a little worried when she saw him like that. When she went up to him, she asked, "Are you alright? You don't look too well."

Leonard's body stiffened. He didn't push away Sylvia's hand when she reached out to him. "I'm fine, I just didn't sleep well last night. I'll be alright after I take a nap later."

I quietly observed Leonard as I stood aside. He wasn't looking into Sylvia's eyes when she was talking to him. It almost seemed like he was avoiding her.

But when Sylvia wasn't looking at him, a complex look flashed in his eyes as he glanced at her.

It only prove what Edwin said last night was probably true.

"Let me walk you back so you can rest," Sylvia said.

Leonard shook his head. "I just got a letter. There is an emergency in the capital city, and I want to have a word with Prince Rufus." His gaze shifted to me. "Alone."

Sylvia looked back at me in confusion.

I helplessly sighed before dotingly smoothing my hand over her head. "You can go to the coffee shop nearby. I'll be there soon."

Sylvia obediently nodded. "Of course. Take your time."
