Chapter 688
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 688 He Is My Biological Father
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 b*ody stiffened. He didn’t push away Sylvia’s hand when she reached out to him. “I’m fine, I
just didn’t sleep wellst night. I’ll be alright after I take a napter.”
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, aplex look shed in his eyes as he nced at her. It only
proves what Edwin saidst 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 obed*iently nodded. “Of course. Take your time.”
After Sylvia left, Leonard looked down. He no longer concealed his gloomy look, and he also seemed
quite dispirited.
“Sylvia really is my biological daughter,” he told me, his voice somewhat hoarse. His gaze was still
glued to Sylvia’s back as she walked away. “I feel guilty that I failed her.”
“You have to say that to her in person,” I calmly stated. That was the first time a tough, male werewolf
like Leonard had shown such a helpless expression.
Leonard parted his lips before he slowly said, “I-I’m scared. I know I was wrong. No matter what
caused this mistake, I owe Sylvia a lot. She has lived her life without a father for all these years. After
her mother passed away, she became even more helpless and grew up alone. If she hadn’t been lucky
enough to meet you, she probably would still be wandering around the streets.”
I felt a pang in my chest upon hearing what he said. When I first met Sylvia, she looked vulnerable yet
vignt. I couldn’t imagine how many difficulties she had to go through.
“Since you’ve made a mistake, you should make up for it. You can’t change the past, but you can start
making it right from now on,” I told him.
Leonard heaved a sigh. “I’m not afraid of anything else. I’m just scared that Sylvia might not want to
recognize me.”
I went silent for a while. “That will mostly depend on your attitude, Leonard.”
Heughed bitterly. “Of course, I’m willing to ept her. Before I found out the truth, I had already
treated her as my own daughter. Sylvia is such an excellent, sweet, delightful girl. But the more I think
about it, the more terrified I be. I’m afraid that she will hate me if she finds out the truth. Especially
because I have Alina as my daughter.”
Alina was indeed a tough problem. From what happened yesterday, it seemed like she hated Sylvia so
much.
Even if Sylvia could recognize Leonard as her biological father, it would most likely irritate Alina. She
might even hurt Sylvia again because of it.
Now that Leonard reminded me about it, I became alert. Whether or not they could recognize each
other as family, I had to be on guard against Alina before the wedding ended.
The more I thought about it, the more I couldn’t help but feel like Alina behaved strangely yesterday. I
just didn’t know why that was the case. Nheless, I tried to reassure Leonard by looking at him and
saying, “You don’t need to worry too much about Sylvia. If you want her to recognize you as her father,
you have to talk to Alina first. I don’t think she’ll be willing to be Sylvia’s sister.”
