Chapter 1085 His Former Mate
Lucy''s POV:
I walked out of the room, making sure to lock the door behind me. As soon as I exited the corridor, I was greeted by the sight of Ad. Her face was
all scrunched up in her anxious musings.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights.
I shot her a re, but she didn''t seem to notice me. She was so deep in thought that she eventually ran right into me.
That only irritated me even more. If I could find someone else, I wouldn''t bother working with this brainless idiot.
Ad''s eyes lit up when she finally saw me. "I thought you weren''t here!" she eximed.
I felt my scowl deepen. "I''ve told you time and time again not toe to me unless it''s urgent! Don''t you realize how easy it is to expose both of us if
vou keeping here like this?"
I could tell that Ad wasn''t taking my words seriously. She just beamed at me and practically skipped to my side, taking my hands in hers. "I''m here
to share some good news with you."
"What is it?" I didn''t want to waste time exchanging nonsense with her. I pulled away in disgust, and then walked past her to get a ss of water.
Ad was still smiling, seemingly unfazed by my obvious animosity. "Thanks to the instructions you gave me, I was able to save Rufus from grave
danger. He has since promised to marry me as his new mate.”
I curled my lips in disdain. "Really? You, saved Rufus?"
Ad simply pursed her lips and tilted her head as if she hadn''t had a care in the world. "The details don''t matter, as long as the desired result is met.
Rufus even told Laura that our wedding will be held to the highest standard. Soon, I will be the queen, the most honorable she-wolf in the kingdom.”
I sneered and rolled my eyes. "If that is the case, then you should be happily spending your time with Rufus instead of wasting my time."
Sure enough, Ad’s face froze, and a look of horror shed in her eyes. "That''s right, you have a point there.”
I couldn''t help but snort derisively. "Tell me, then. What is the problem?”
Ad seemed to consider her words carefully before speaking. "The one who actually saved Rufus... I think that it''s his former mate.”
She paused and nervously fiddled
with her hands. "But I don''t know
why she left before he woke up. I
arrived at theperfect moment and
grabbed thedpportuni y to pretend.
was Rufgs”savior. I was so excited
that time that I didn''t even think >
aboutanything else. It wasn''t until
overheard a conversation hetween
laura and the doctor aterthat I
found out the only reason Rufus was
recovered from his serious injuries
$0 soon was because the help of his
mate. Luckily, Rufus automatically
assumed that I was his mate.
Otherwise, our ns would have
fallen apart."
Ad''s words shocked me to the core. Rufus’ mate? Did she mean Sylvia? But Sylvia had been executed for treason five years ago! How could she
suddenly reappear out of the blue?
I could feel my face twist in angry confusion. "There''s no way!" I screamed at Ad. "That she-wolf has been long dead!”
"Well," Ad said nervously, "then is it possible that it was his real second mate?”
I had no answer to that. My thoughts were racing. If it had really been Rufus'' new mate, she would never have left him, unless she was hiding
something.
More to the point, there was only one person who would jump over a cliff without hesitation to save Rufus.
That meant that Sylvia had deceived everyone, pretending to be dead all this time!
I felt uneasy at the prospect of SE
returning to the capital. She knew far
too mugeh for myfort. She might
even reveal the fact that Firman was
not.atrue member of the royal
family. .”

I whirled around and directed my ire
at Ad. "Therpotion I gave you
might have Rufus mistake you for
his mate, but it will onlyst fora
month. Yeu must make him fa Lin
love with you as soon as possible.
Thats your only hope of escaping
purishment once he earns of the
rath. Otherwise, there issnothing I
can do to help you once the effects
of the potion fade." Content belongs
