The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 760 Watch The Surveillance Footage

Rufus' POV:

I sent the others away and watched the surveillance footage in the corridor outside Sylvia's ward as I sat alone in the control room.

After hesitating for some time, I finally managed to click on the video.

The video showed Blair knocking on the door and entering the ward not long after I left. About ten seconds later, he closed the door and stayed inside for 25 minutes before leaving.

Omar's eyes widened in realization. He finally knew why I was so gloomy. "W-What the hell... What was Blair doing?"

I didn't say anything.

"Maybe it's just a coincidence," Omar added, trying to defend Blair. "Maybe Sylvia woke up as soon as you left and Blair happened to come and see her during that time. He used to be Sylvia's mentor. They were probably just talking inside the ward."

What Omar said made sense. His theories dispelled some of my suspicions.

When Sylvia was still in military school, Blair had been her teacher and personally trained her, and nothing had happened between them at that time.

Maybe it really was a coincidence.

Blair treated Sylvia as his own sister, and they usually had a lot to talk about.

But no matter how hard I tried to persuade myself not to overthink, I still couldn't help but imagine things.

Although Blair had given Sylvia special training before, Flora and Harry had been with her.

They seemed so close-almost as if they were siblings-but I knew Sylvia wouldn't cross the line. She wasn't exactly introverted, but she wasn't the kind of person who would be willing to talk to other guys for a long time either because she knew I would be jealous.

"Why don't you just ask her directly? Communication is the most effective way to solve problems like these, you know?" Omar suggested.

I didn't say anything. I silently watched the computer screen for a few minutes before moving the mouse to delete the relevant surveillance footage.

As soon as I walked out of the control room, the staff immediately surrounded me and bowed in respect.

I narrowed my eyes at them and sternly said, "The investigation of the intruders is confidential. I hope you guys can keep this a secret, or else all of you will have to move away from the capital city forever if it gets leaked."

After that, I strode away from the control center.

I went back to the inpatient building and went straight to the top floor because I wanted to see Sylvia.

But just when I was about to turn the doorknob,

I hesitated again.

Even though I seemed calm and composed, I knew that I was getting even more impulsive. I wished I could catch Blair right now so I could interrogate him.

I stopped in my tracks and took a deep breath to calm myself down. Then, I sat on a bench not too far away.

The royal family had exclusive rights to the wards on the top floor. Since it wasn't open to the public, I was the only one quietly sitting by the benches while some of the nurses and doctors occasionally passed by.

They became frightened by my presence. Most of them would come and greet me, but when they talked to me, I practically felt how nervous they were.

Eventually, it came to a point where no one passed by the corridor anymore. They were probably scared of me.

I chuckled at the thought of them being terrified by my presence for no plausible reason. It wasn't like I was going to eat them. Sylvia was probably the only one who wasn't afraid of me. Thinking of that, I felt like smoking again. I reached for my pocket, but I didn't take out the cigarette.

I heaved a sigh and stood up, wanting to leave.

Just then, the door to a ward suddenly opened, and when I shifted my gaze at the door, I saw Sylvia anxiously trotting toward me with her bare feet.

She was wearing a simple white nightdress that reached below her knees, and I couldn't help but admire her. She looked beautiful-like an angel who fell into the mortal world by accident.

At that moment, the restlessness I felt in my body subsided, and I felt much calmer than before.
