Chapter 488 Waiting


    Rufus'' POV:


    The magnificent room was now a mess. All the furniture had been smashed to the floor.


    The huge painting on the wall tilted to the side and finally fell to the floor with a crack, splitting into


    two.


    I sat on the couch and smoked desperately.


    The back of my hand was bruised and bleeding.


    I numbly stared out the window.


    My emotions were so overwhelming that I felt like I was going to drown. I almost couldn''t hold back


    the urge to murder and destroy everything in this ce.


    I put the half remaining cigarette into the ashtray and picked up my phone from the table. Seeing


    the photo of Sylvia on my screen, I couldn''t help but feel depressed.


    Looking at a photo of Sylvia was the only thing that could calm me down now.


    "Sylvia''s going to be fine. What you need to do now is rest. Don''t be defeated even before you bring


    Sylvia back," Omar persuaded me.


    I didn''t say anything. I ran my finger through the screen and looked at the girl in the photo with


    affection. All I wanted was to keep her beside me forever.


    "I don''t think Geoffrey wants you as an enemy. He could be using Sylvia to get you to form an


    alliance with him," Omar continued. "Let''s see what Geoffrey is going to do tomorrow. I have a


    feeling that this city has more secrets than it seems."C0pyright ? 2024 N?v)(elDrama.Org.


    "Of course I know that. But whenever I remember that Sylvia is in the hands of vampires, I just want


    to ughter everything in my way."


    Vampires and werewolves had been at odds since the ancient times. Even if Geoffrey used


    vampires, it was merely a transactional rtionship. It was hard to guarantee that vampires did not


    have a n of their own.


    "We could kill Geoffrey after saving Sylvia. This pack could use a new Alpha." Omar now began to


    mirror my restlessness.


    "Let''s wait and see. If Sylvia has not been hurt, everything could still be negotiable." After all, this


    was not only Geoffrey''s problem now, but the whole pack as well. Their world view and values had


    been distorted for so long. It was difficult to change it in a short amount of time.


    "If we can''t solve the problem on our own, we''d better give up on this ce. I feel that this pack is


    already rotten to the core. Even if we rece Geoffrey with another Alpha, who''s to say they won''t


    follow the old path again?" Omar pondered.


    I pursed my lips in confusion. I thought of my father, the citizens, and the army, forgetting to answer


    Omar''s question.


    Omar heaved a long sigh. "Forget it. Let''s wait and see tomorrow. But if ever we don''t kill Geoffrey,


    we must still teach him a lesson."


    I yed with my lighter and stared at the dancing me. Slowly, I began to calm down.


    Omar didn''t say anything more. He just stayed with me quietly.


    It was not until dawn that I stood up from the couch. First, I secretly sent my confidants to the


    surrounding areas to look for traces of vampires and Sylvia. Then, I asked some troops to leave the


    city and go to other nearby packs for assistance, citing the reason as post-earthquake


    reconstruction.


    After that, I sat still on the edge of the bed like a statue until noon.


    At twelve o''clock, someone knocked on my door.


    I removed my tie, changed into ck casual clothes, and opened the door.


    "Prince Rufus, the car is waiting at the gate." Geoffrey''s subordinate was at the door respectfully.


    I put on my sunsses and tossed the room key to him. "Kindly clean the room up." "Yes, sir."
