The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 695

Leonard's POV:

Rufus and I were in a conversation in the corridor. As I watched the bustling scene outside, I was in a good mood.

Now that Alina was going to get married, she could look forward to a lifetime of happiness.

Subconsciously, I reached into my pocket and pulled out a chocolate bar. But a hand snatched it out of my fingers just as I was ready to bite into it.

"You shouldn't eat sweets." Rufus looked very serious as he tossed the candy into the bin.

I feigned a cough to cover my embarrassment. Rufus didn't treat me with any respect even though I was now his father-in-law.

"What's wrong?" He turned to me with a serious look.

Awkward, I cracked a grin. "Nothing. It's just you have been with Sylvia for a long time now, and I want to give you an anniversary gift."

As he frowned, Rufus appeared to be at a loss for words. He examined me as though there was something wrong with my brain.

"What do you and Sylvia like? Tell me." I bit the bullet and continued to ask.

Rufus kept silent for a while before saying in a cold tone, "Alpha Leonard, I know you really

mean to ask what Sylvia likes."

The second he caught me off guard, my face flushed, and I stammered, "Well, it's... it's not like that. I just want to do something to make amends to Sylvia..."

I had been worried sick these days. And I was at a loss what to do about our father-daughter relationship.

Alas...

I was hoping the ceremony would end quickly so I could see Sylvia again and tell her I was her father.

Suddenly, there was a commotion at the door. One of my subordinates hastened to tell me that the groom was on his way.

I then picked myself up and was prepared to go outside to welcome the groom.

Unexpectedly, Alina pushed the door of her lounge open and rushed out. She was disheveled and pallid from fear. "There are enemies! They took Sylvia away!"
