    Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight


    Chapter 1072 A Strange Girl


    Laura’s POV:


    Naturally, I believed Crystal more. My prejudice was more or less objective, but my instinct told me


    there was more to this girl named Ad than she looked.


    I smiled at Ad kindly and pulled her to sit down. “Can you tell me why you happened to be there and


    found Rufus?”


    Ad raised her gaze at me, her plump, smooth face expressing a hint of shyness. In a low voice, she


    answered, “I’m a professional painter. When I went to the suburb to paint that day, and I came across


    King Rufus when he was injured…”


    I turned to examine the artwork and painting tools in the corner. A soldier delivered them here just now.


    ording to the people who followed Rufus, this young woman named Ad was indeed found in the


    area with her painting tools.


    That seemed usible, but when I looked at Ad, I couldn’t help but feel a peculiar connection.


    I wasn’t one to keep my doubts to myself. If there was an issue, I would always address it directly. That


    was why I went right ahead and asked Ad, “Have I met you before?”


    Ad seemed to feel an instant pang of embarrassment. She looked ufortable and replied, “I


    attended the ballst time. Maybe you saw me there.”


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    I frowned and tried to recall this girl from memory, but I came up empty. I would not deny; her face was


    utterly beautiful. Beautiful women such as this one always had a great impression on me. Every time I’d


    see them, I’d think whether or not they were deserving of Rufus.


    Even though I know Rufus wouldn’t be interested in them, my concerns remained. I knew I said didn’t


    care, but my concerns about Rufus’ marriage still persisted. After all, he was of age to get married now.


    Thinking of this, I couldn’t help but sigh. Startled, Ad said in a tearful voice, “Have I disappointed you


    in any way?”


    I was surprised. She was too timid even though she was the daughter of an Alpha. Why did she look


    like she had never seen an elephant before? From what I was seeing, her behavior didn’t match her


    identity. I couldn’t help but pull a long face. Her fearful reaction made me feel like an old witch who


    devoured people.


    This further added to my suspicions of her true identity. There would be no reason for me to stop


    looking into her, even if investigation turned up no cause for concern over her identity.


    Without changing my tone and showing no doubt, I asked “How did you meet Rufus? And how did you


    save him? I heard the cliff was steep. Why did you go down there?”


    “I saw the king fall off the cliff, so I rushed down without hesitation. Fortunately, I learned how to swim


    when I was a child. I risked my life to get him out of there.” Ad’s answer to my question was heartfelt


    and genuine. When I observed her facial expression, she didn’t flinch and just looked straight into my


    eyes.


    Was what she said true? Did this girl really save Rufus?


    Her words did make sense. People who didn’t know the truth could imagine what happened based from


    her story.


    But somehow, I just didn’t want to believe her. Perhaps I was just biased. I’d rather believe Crystal


    saved Rufus than this girl in front of me.


    At this moment, the door suddenly opened. Crystal rushed in angrily and red at Ad. “Nonsense!


    You didn’t save him at all!”


    I looked at Crystal and then at Ad in bewilderment. Suddenly, I realized something. Ad’s hairstyle,


    behavior, expression, and tone mirrored Crystal’s when thetter first entered the imperial pce!
