Chapter 448 Meaningful Words
Sylvia''s POV:
Although Geoffrey was vehemently scolding the leading guard, I felt that he was implying something
else.
With a straight face, I eyed Geoffrey warily as my mind raced.
As his scolding came to a close, Geoffrey ordered his men to drag the leading guard away and
execute him.
But before they could drag him away, I put a stop to this farce.
"Forget it. It was the five of us who broke the rules in the first ce. He was just fulfilling his duty.
He''s not in the wrong."
As I spoke, I cast a cold nce at the sniveling leading guard.
He didn''t seem to expect that I would intercede for him. His eyes went wide in bewilderment, but
then he quickly nodded to me in thanks.
I looked away from him and turned to Geoffrey. "I think it''d be better to avoid bloodshed tonight." "If
that''s what Miss Todd wants, then I''ll spare his life." Geoffrey raised his eyebrows and gave me a
friendly smile. Then, to the leading guard, he growled, "Get out of my sight."
The leading guard yelped with joy and hurriedly crawled out.
Then Geoffrey asked the maids to bring us coffee and exquisite desserts. He said that he wanted to
catch up with us.Material ? N?velDrama.Org.
I held the cup of coffee in my hand and didn''t say anything. I had a gut feeling that he wanted to ask
us some questions, like where we had been tonight.
Sure enough, after asking Harry about his father, Geoffrey turned to me to ask about our
whereabouts tonight.
"Why didn''t you take anyone with you? Why did you go out alone? Our pack isn''t that big, but one
can still get lost easily if they''re not careful."
Although Geoffrey had a smile stered on his face, his tone was somewhat aggressive.
I pursed my lips and forced a polite smile. "Well, truth be told, we were a bit bored and we felt that
we''d get cabin fever if we didn''t go out for a walk. We nned to go take an evening stroll to enjoy
the night scenery, but we didn''t expect that the ce would be empty. So we grew bored once again
and came back."
"That''s right. It was so lively in the daytime, but so quiet at night!" Harry mused aloud.
With a straight face, Warren added in a very serious tone, "It looked much more interesting here
than in the imperial capital."
"I also thought there''d be more to see after the banquet." Both John and Warren tried their best to
look like they enjoyed a good nightlife.
Flora, on the other hand, was busy stuffing her cheeks with the delicious desserts. "Yes. Not only is
this pack beautiful, the werewolves are also good-looking! I just wanted to see if I could shoot my
shot tonight!"
Geoffrey smiled at all of us helplessly. "Ah, youth.
I was also restless when I was your age."
I sipped from my coffee silently.
"But you all should know that our humble pack is nowhere near as prosperous as the imperial
capital city. In the evening, almost nobody goes out on the streets. If you''re looking for some more
fun, I''ll have someone take you out tomorrow," Geoffrey offered sincerely. Then he turned to
apologize to me, but I could tell he wasn''t sorry from the look on his face. "I have to say sorry for
one more thing."
"What is it?" I frowned slightly. Somehow, I had a sinking feeling that I wouldn''t want to hear his next
words. My gut told me that it had something to do with Rufus.
Sure enough, Geoffrey sighed and said, "I didn''t know you came here with Prince Rufus. Worried
that the lycan prince would feel lonely tonight, I specially arranged for a ve to serve him. If I had
known you were here, I wouldn''t have done such a thing."
Rage surged within me as he spoke. He even had the audacity to bring that up and pretend to be
sorry. I really wanted to twist his head off.
But I had to consider the welfare of my team. Suppressing my anger, I forced a smile and shrugged
it off nonchntly. "It''s fine. Other than me, Prince Rufus wouldn''t get close to any she-wolf."
"What?" Geoffrey looked surprised. "But the ve has been in Prince Rufus'' room for more than
four hours now and hasn''te out yet."
Hearing this, I lost myposure on the spot.
