Chapter 467 The Secret Of This City


    Rufus'' POV:


    "All right." Geoffrey nodded. "I will send the ve to serve you tonight. Although she is a vampire,


    she can''t speak. So you don''t need to worry."


    I sneered.


    Although she couldn''t speak, she could write. ''Did Geoffrey not realize that? Or was he simply


    stupidly fearless and looking down upon the royal family?''


    I was not in the mood to go to the banquetter, so I came up with something to excuse myself.


    On my way back, I finally had the time to take out my phone. As soon as I unlocked my phone, I


    saw a message from Sylvia, stating she was going to explore outside the wall.


    I thought she had gone with her teammates, so I didn''t pay much attention to it. I just reminded her


    to be careful. However, I met Flora and Warren on the way. They were quarreling for some reason.


    Confused, I walked to them. "Why are you here? Where is Sylvia?"


    Flora shook off Warren''s hand and frowned. "Didn''t Sylviae to see you? She left a long time


    ago."


    I instantly realized something was wrong.


    Perhaps Sylvia had lied to Flora for some reason. "Isn''t Sylvia with you?" Flora asked, her tone


    anxious this time.


    "No. She is waiting for me in my room. She just sent me a message." I waved my phone at them.


    "All right. You two carry on. I''m leaving now."


    I called Sylvia as soon as I returned to my room. But no one answered.

    I repeatedly called her, but she wasn''t in the service area.


    I grew restless. If I had known it earlier, I would have asked my secret guards to follow her --even


    though Sylvia hated people following her.


    ''Damn it! I should have ended the investigation earlier.''


    I ran a hand over my hair as the dread seemed to intensify with every passing minute.


    The problem in this city was moreplicated than I had thought. The disappearance of those


    werewolves terrified me.


    I paced restlessly in the room. After a while, I couldn''t wait any longer. I picked up my coat and


    decided to look out for Sylvia.


    Just as I was about to leave, there was a knock on the door.


    It was Geoffrey''s men. They had brought the vampire ve here. She was wearing a revealing


    dress.


    The strong scent of her perfume wafted in the air.


    I hid my anxiety and tried to patiently deal with Geoffrey''s men.


    "Leave her here. You can go now."


    The guards exchanged nces; one of them timidly stepped forward. "But Alpha Geoffrey asked us


    to stay here and take the ve back with us at dawn."


    "I''ll call you if I want her to leave. You can go now!" I snapped coldly.


    The guards were terrified and didn''t dare to utter a word. They had to go back and report to


    Geoffrey.


    After they left, the ve and I were all alone in the room.


    I took the bed sheet and threw it at her. "Wrap yourself up," I said in disgust.


    The maid covered herself up with trembling hands and stayed in the corner of the bed. She was still


    as timid asst time.


    I turned around and fetched a pen and paper. "I''m going to ask you a couple of questions. Write the


    answers clearly."


    I was not in a good mood, so I didn''t bother being polite to her.


    Just as I was wondering what to ask her, the ve had already picked up the pen and was eagerly


    writing something.


    My breath caught in my throat as I leaned over to see what she had written.


    "When the clock strikes midnight, the hunting ground will be open outside the wall," the note read.
