Chapter 451 About To Catch Them In The Act
Sylvia''s POV:
The room Geoffrey had prepared for Rufus was in a vi in the western wing. Red roses were lined
the path.

I walked behind Geoffrey with a straight face. I just wanted him to tell me where Rufus was located,
but he insisted on taking me to his room in person.
It was obvious that he wanted to catch a good show.
I had driven Flora and the others away because I didn''t want them to see such a scene. Although I
didn''t want to believe that Rufus would really cheat on me, it was difficult for me to figure out why he
and Ashley had stayed in the same room for over four hours.
"How far is it?" I couldn''t help but ask.
Geoffrey gave me a smile and said, "We''re almost there. Rx. Just a couple more galleries."
Growing more and more irritable, I didn''t reply to him.
"Sylvia, I think you''re overthinking. Rufus wouldn''t do that to you," Yana said in my mind in an effort
tofort me.
"I know he wouldn''t, but I can''t help but wonder. It has been four hours, Yana, but they haven''te
out. Don''t tell me they''ve just been chatting for four hours straight." I was on the verge of breaking
down and I couldn''t help but think of the worst case scenario.
"Well, I mean, it''s possible..." Yana continued falteringly. "Maybe they have be confidants."
"Confidants?" I sneered coldly. "It''d be even funnier if my mate had a female confidant."
"Don''t be angry. Forget what I said." Yana sighed. "Geoffrey was the one who said it had been four
hours. Maybe he''s lying and that ve has already left."
Despite her reasonable words, my mind was in a mess and I couldn''t calm down.
After trying to persuade me for a long time, Yana finally pulled out her trump card. "When Alina
made it look like you were having an affair with Warren, Rufus still trusted you. What about you?
You don''t know what the truth is, yet you already suspect Rufus."
After being silent for quite a while, I muttered, "I don''t suspect him. It''s just..."
My voice trailed off. My feelings wereplicated and I couldn''t describe them. It felt as though my
one and only treasure had been taken away from me.
The thought of Rufus and Ashley staying alone for four hours made me mad with jealousy.
Yana fell eerily silent for a while. Suddenly, she asked in a low voice, "Is it possible that Rufus has
killed that ve? After all, the full moon is nearing..."
My eyes shed. Yana could be right. It was almost the night of the full moon, and Rufus had been
in a very agitated statetely. If a strange female approached him, he could''ve lost control and
twisted her neck.
That would''ve exined why the ve hadn''t left the room yet.
Thinking of this, I instantly calmed down and even began to think of ways to deal with the aftermath
of murder.
But I couldn''t help but feel guilty for suspecting Rufus.
I thought I was a good mate to Rufus, but now that something had happened, I realized that I wasn''t
doing enough for him.
No matter what, I needed to trust Rufus unconditionally.
"You''re right, Yana. I shouldn''t have thought too much." I nodded. "I will be more rational and put
more trust in Rufus in the future."
Finally, we made it to the luxurious vi. Rufus '' room was on the second floor.
Even from where I stood, I could smell a familiar scent. It was Rufus. The smell wasing from
the room on the second floor, indicating that he was there.
But the smell that should''ve belong to me and me alone was closely intertwined with another
strange smell...
It was a special scent of vampires, like rotten wood soaked in blood, thick and barely breathable.
It happened to be the same smell as the one from the vampire ve Ashley.
"Humph," I sneered. Ignoring Geoffrey, I rushed into the vi first.
Damn it! Despite my epiphany just now, I could no longer be reasonable. Now I just wanted to tear
that shameless couple apart.
