Chapter 949 Set A Trap For Her


    Rufus'' POV:


    Seeing the panicked she-wolf on the big screen, I felt satisfied. Even though she was wearing a


    mask, her panic was obvious. I smiled, looking forward to her next reaction.


    This she-wolf seemed to have been trying to blend in with the crowd. On the surface, she pledged


    her loyalty to me, but I knew that she was hiding something. After all, she had kept to herself at the


    border for so many years. Perhaps she was plotting against me in secret. Otherwise, why was she


    so afraid of being exposed?


    Just now, I keenly sensed a burning stare. As soon as I turned my head, I met the intent gaze of this


    she-wolf. She was probably up to no good.


    I could just tell that Crystal wasn''t simple. She had many secrets, and I was determined to expose


    them all.


    I refused to let her hide in the shadows. If I exposed her now, she wouldn''t be able to scheme


    against me.


    I''d made up my mind to find an excuse to keep her in the imperial capital before I found out what


    she was hiding. It had taken a great deal of effort to summon her to the capital in the first ce.


    How could I just let her go so easily? Letting the tiger out of her cage was just stupid.


    Thinking of this, I praised the she-wolf again.


    She seemed to be very embarrassed. Harry was close to her, and he whispered something to her


    which made the she-wolf look up at me. The embarrassment and anger in her eyes were obvious. It


    seemed that she was smart enough to see that I deliberately targeted her.


    I sneered inwardly. It was really strange. When did Harry be friends with this she-wolf? Even


    his mate, Joanna, was standing close to her, as though they had known her for a long time...


    As far as I knew, although Harry was extroverted and easygoing, he was born with a silver spoon in


    his mouth. He was proud and discreet in nature, and he wouldn''t make friends with just anybody. As


    for Joanna, she was always cold to pretty much just everyone. It was rare for her to show intimacy


    with a person she just met.


    The more I thought about it, the more intrigued I felt. I suddenly realized that it wasn''t that bad to


    have some surprises in a peaceful life.


    Smiling, I gestured at the masked she-wolf and invited her onstage. "Alpha Crystal, pleasee


    here and share your experience in managing the pack with us."


    The crowd burst into apuse. Curious, they all looked at Crystal and whispered to each other.


    Over the past five years, this was the first time that the Alpha of the border pack had appeared in


    such a public ce. It was only natural everyone was very curious about her.


    Crystal didn''t move, as though she didn''t want toe up. She was likely cursing me in her heart


    now.


    Although I only met her recently, I knew her well already. She was stubborn and unwilling to admit


    defeat. She was aggressive and never took royal power seriously. She was more unbridled than a


    wild cat in the woods. She needed someone to stomp on her neck to be obedient.


    "Alpha Crystal, did you hear me? Pleasee onstage when you''re ready," I said to the she-wolf


    patiently.


    Only then did the she-wolf drag herself onstage.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    I made way for her and carefully adjusted the microphone to her height. The she-wolf refused to


    look at me and kept silent for a long time, seeming at a loss for words.


    "You can tell us how you managed your pack over the years, such as how you developed its


    economy, et cetera. You should have a lot to say. After all, you pay the most tax every year."


    I was kind enough to give her some hints, but unexpectedly, the she-wolf rolled her eyes. It was


    quick, but I caught it. Although she restrained herself, I saw even the slightest movement.


    I was amused. It had been a long time since anyone dared to be so disrespectful to me. How


    interesting!
