The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 952

Crystal's POV:

I was stunned. I turned around slowly and met the excited gaze of the elegant-looking she-wolf.

What... What the hell? It was Flora!

It had only been five years since the last time I saw her, yet she looked like a completely different person!

I didn't dare to make a sound. I hurried to put my hat back on and pretended not to know her.

"Wait! Sylvia, is that you?" Flora grabbed my sleeve and stared at my eyes searchingly.

Pretending to be calm, I shook off her hand and asked hoarsely, "Sylvia? Who's Sylvia? You've got the wrong person."

The potion that concealed my scent should've still been in effect. It was impossible for Flora to recognize me. She had to be bluffing.

I calmed myself down and said, "Excuse me. I have to go to the banquet."

Flora snorted and blocked my way. "Drop the act, Sylvia. Your voice gave you away. And besides me and the lycan king, only you would dare to curse Warren like that."

Then Flora scratched her chin and speculated, "Let me guess. You didn't recognize me just now and thought that Warren was cheating on me. That's why you were so angry and rushed up to scold Warren."

My heart leaped to my throat. Flora was so observant now. If I had known that, I wouldn't have been so impulsive just now. I should've confirmed my suspicions before taking action!

Wincing, I scolded myself inwardly for being such a fool. I should never have come to the imperial capital! It was so much safer to hide in the border pack. It had only been a few days since I came to the capital, and yet almost all the people who knew me recognized me.
