The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 1091 Waiting For The Right Time

Crystal's POV:

When I heard Laura, my temper flared.

I furiously punched the bench I was sitting on and said with gritted teeth, "Rufus has no memory of me. What's the point of Adela imitating me? She's just a pathetic imposter, and it won't work!" Laura sighed and smiled helplessly, as if she was witnessing a child throwing a tantrum.

I stopped, scratched my nose, and looked away sheepishly. Every time I dealt with some matter related to Rufus, I couldn't stay calm and easily lost my cool. Laura must be laughing at me inwardly. "I'm a little confused about one thing. When you arrived at the imperial palace, Adela was only thirteen. At that time, she must have been residing in her pack, and even if she was visiting the capital, she wouldn't have had an opportunity to encounter you. But now she can impersonate you. Not only did she perfectly imitate your appearance and behavior, but also the way you speak," Laura analyzed with furrowed eyebrows.

Another possibility instantly struck me, making my heart skip a beat. I turned to Laura and asked, "Do you mean to imply that someone is secretly helping Adela?"

With a nod, Laura answered, "Probably."

"Who?"

I was a little astonished. As soon as Adela entered the palace, someone helped her behind the scenes. I tried to recall the most obvious suspect, but my mind was muddled up. I couldn't figure out who had the reason to do this.

Who would benefit from Adela's marriage to Rufus?

Laura pondered for a while with a serious expression, and then said, "I also don't have an answer yet. I can't think of anyone with such motives for the time being. Since Rufus became the lycan king, no one has had the Courage to play dirty tricks on him, Alina is the most likely suspect. But she is imprisoned in the dungeon and has no means of contacting the outside world, so we can rule her out. The only fact we are certain about is that the person helping Adela is someone close to us, otherwise, that person wouldn't know your behavior so well. We have to be on our guard in the next few days. If necessary, it will be wise to find an opportunity to remind Rufus as well."

I nodded to indicate that I would treat this matter with great importance, and then said, "I will keep a close eye on Adela. I'm sure she will keep a low profile in the imperial palace until she gets what she wants. Rufus is what we should really worry about."

Love was unpredictable. Sometimes falling in love needed only a specific opportunity. For a person with Rufus' personality, I know the guidance of the Moon Goddess was not enough to make him fall in love with someone.

But I didn't have the courage to bet on this. Even if the odds of Rufus falling in love with Adela were low to none, I was still terrified that it could happen.

Laura noticed my worried

expression and try to comfort me. "Don't overthink this. I'll also appoint a person to keep an eye on Adela. do my best to delay the wedding as well. Just as you have pointed out,

we

see the results after a month.

Even if some unexpected event

takes place, I won't let this marriage succeed. I won't allow someone with evil intentions to ruin the royal family."

Laura's eyes were murderous when she made her declaration.

"Yes! I don't want Rufus to marry a liar."

I curled my fingers into fists and decided firmly that no matter what happened, I had to keep Adela under surveillance this month.

Regardless of the tricks she played, I would watch her closely and wouldn't let her ploys succeed.

Even if Rufus wanted a new mate, he deserved to marry a kind and decent she-wolf, not one who depended on playing tricks to be noticed by him.
