Chapter 242 Each Has Their Own Motives
Richard''s POV:
"Send some men downstairs, and tell them to guard the area heavily," I said to the guards. Then I
went straight to Lucy''s room.
The big room was dark and gloomy. It was full of the smell of smoke.
I subconsciously frowned when I saw Lucy lying sickly on the bed. Her eyes were half-closed, and I
sensed that she was indifferent to my arrival. Susan was next to her, checking on her.
I walked to the window and drew the heavy curtains, letting the sunlighte in instantly.
Lucy squinted her eyes. It seemed that she was afraid of seeing the light. She groaned and
immediately turned her back to the light.
I snorted coldly, "You''re going to die soon. Why are you still making trouble?"
Since I locked Lucy up, she had been making trouble every now and then, asking for a doctor. I
knew she was just looking for an opportunity to escape. But I had already sent my men to guard the
building heavily. Even a fly couldn''t get out, let alone her, a living she-wolf.
But today, she was a little sensible. She didn''t mor for Kyle as soon as she saw me.
When I saw the cigarette butts on the floor, I felt a little amused. "It seems that you don''t care about
your baby that much."
Lucy still ignored me. She looked lifeless.
When I approached her bed, Susan stood up, bowed to me, and was about to leave.Content from N?velDr(a)ma.Org.
But I held her wrist to stop her. I wanted to ask her if Lucy was really ill or not. But before I could say
anything, she trembled, and her face instantly turned pale.
Her reaction surprised me. Why was she so afraid of me? But after thinking about it, I realized that it
was only normal for a civilian doctor to be afraid since she rarely saw a real aristocrat.
That was why I chose a doctor with a simple background to help Lucy with her pregnancy. People
like her often knew better what to say and what not to. After all, keeping her own life was more
important to her than earning money.
I let go of Susan''s wrist, smiled, and asked, "How is Lucy? And the baby in her belly?"
"Your Highness, the baby in Lady Lucy''s belly is very healthy. She just needs to pay more attention
to her diet. It''s best that she avoids eating seafood. She just had a few mouthfuls of crab roe soup
today, but she already had a stomachache," Susan said with her head down. She didn''t even dare
to look at me.
I nodded. After making sure that Lucy wasn''t ying any tricks on me, I waved Susan away.
Lucy sat up from the bed, and the cor of her robe slid down, revealing her wless and thin
shoulder. The big robe could no longer cover her thin body.
But when I thought that she had slept with another man, I felt sick and didn''t want to look at her
anymore. I picked up the clothes on the floor and threw them on her. "Put them on."
Lucy smiled mockingly and said, "It''s really kind of you toe and see the ''prince'' in my belly
every day."
"Of course, I''m looking forward to seeing Rufus personally get the baby out of your belly," I
immediately retorted. "I hope he can do it urately. I don''t want to see this hard-earned baby lose
an arm or a leg."
Lucy''s face turned pale at once. She red at me fiercely as if she wanted to kill me.
I was very satisfied with her reaction. I couldn''t help but feel at ease every time I saw her angry.
This was the only way I could vent my anger.
I stopped talking nonsense with her and waved to the two guards behind me, beckoning them to
come over. One of them approached Lucy with a syringe in his hand.
I could see from Lucy''s eyes that she was terrified. She climbed down from the other side of the bed
and fell to the floor in a panic. "Richard! What are you doing? God will punish you!"
I sneered, "Meetingyou is already my retribution." Lucy tried to escape, but she was restrained by
the other guard. She kept screaming and struggling, but her strength was no match for the two
werewolves. The guard with the syringe injected the liquid into her body. In a few seconds, she
fainted.
"Go take her away," I ordered coldly.
