Chapter 192


    Judging by the testimony and the butler’s shifty reaction, J could be sure that Lord Rolf had


    something to do with this.


    But he just denied it, firmly.


    J had known this man for years.


    To bepletely honest, he didn’t strike her as somebody who would lie bluntly in front of everyone’s


    face for some jewelry.


    So what was really going on here?


    J took in a deep breath to calm herself and then said, “But this man that we caught this criminal–


    said that you are behind everything, Lord Rolf. He said that he is a mercenary and is hired by you.


    She looked down at the mercenary knelt on the ground, “Tell them everything that you said to me in the


    car.”


    Half of the mercenary’s body was covered in blood.


    He shivered in fear and stuttered in a shaky voice, “I–I was hired! Themission fee was 10 grand for


    hijacking the shipment and another 10 grand for bringing it back to Lord Rolf’s mansion. A letter was


    sent to us, giving us detailed instructions, like when the delivery truck would arrive, and which route the

    truck would take…The letter even has Lord Rolf’s family crest on it!”


    “Do you still have the letter? Can I see it?” J asked.


    The mercenary nodded hastily and pulled out a piece of paper from his inner jacket.


    It was true.


    Lord Rolf’s family crest was indeed on the letter!


    J presented the letter to everyone, “I think we have found some hard proofs. here.”


    Lord Rolf took a quick nce at the letter and let out a snort.


    “You expect to convict me with a single letter?” he snapped, “And this mercenary. had never met with


    their employer. Am I right?”


    The mercenary gulped nervously, “No I haven’t…just this letter…”


    “There you have it! It means that anyone could pretend to be me. This family crest is


    most likely forged!”


    There was a deep furrow between J’s brows, “Yes that is a possibility. But we found those


    mercenaries in your mansion! That is a fact that you cannot deny! Who let them into your house?”


    “It wasn’t me!” the butler cried, “I don’t know whom…but clearly our lord is being framed!”


    “Then why wouldn’t you let me search your house earlier!”


    The butler red at J, “I was trying to protect mydy! Lady Priya has been sick for years and


    doesn’t like to be disturbed by strangers. Are you going to me me for simply doing my job?”


    J bit her lips.


    She felt cornered.


    She had a gut feeling that there was something wrong with the butler and the Rolf family.


    Yet she couldn’t prove it.


    “Alright. Alright.”


    Casper pped his hands and silenced the agitated crowd, trying to be the peacemaker here, “Looks


    like there are some misunderstandings. We have the safe back, which is all that matters. Why don’t we


    drop this for now and pick it up some other day? It is getting prettyte-”


    “No! I won’t have it!” Lord Rolf said in a harsh tone, “With all due respect, Alpha Casper, you did a great


    job running this pack, but you have indulged your sister’s behavior for too long! Yes, she is our heroine.


    But look whom she has brought back here? The Lycans? The rogues?! She invited the enemy into our


    house! And now she is using decent members of things that we didn’t do! Do you call this just and


    fair?!”


    His angry usation echoed in the air.


    Many guests stood in silence.


    But the look on their faces showed that they agreed with Lord Rolf’s words.


    J clenched her fists in fume, “The Lycans mean no harm to us. And as for the rogues, we have


    made peace with them already-”


    “Who is this ‘we‘? you can’t make our decisions for us!” Lord Rolf snarled, “The rogues ughtered our


    members and killed our soldiers. I will never put that behind me!”


    Casper interrupted him with a sullen face, “You are getting off the point, Lord Rolf. I respect your


    personal opinion. But you can’t me J for inviting her friends.”


    “I don’t care!”


    Lord Rolf puffed his chest, “I want Princess J to apologize to me and my daughter! Or Blood Moon


    Pack will lose my family’s support!‘


    Casper’s face darkened.


    He looked infuriated by Rolf’s threat


    J, on the other hand, felt a bit light–headed.


    She hadn’t slept or eaten in a whole day.


    And now there was this.


    Maybe she was being reckless–she should haven’t found some hard proof before using Lord Rolf in


    front of everyone.


    Now things were getting out of control


    Although she was certain that Casper would back her up, she didn’t want to put Casper in that position.


    So maybe she should apologize


    “Can I have that letter for a moment?” Westin said abruptly.


    Janer blinked in a daze. Then handed him the letter.


    Westin sniffed the letter and grinned.


    He walked up to Lord Rolf’s daughter, Lady Priya.


    “Back away from my daughter, Lycan!” Lord Rolf hissed.


    Westin put his hands up in the air, showing that he was harmless, “Rx. I simply want to introduce


    myself to you and your daughter. Priya, isn’t it? What a lovely Dame.”


    He picked up Priya’s delicate hand and elegantly nted a kiss on the back of her hand, “My name is


    Westin Nice to meet you.”


    Priya stared at his handsome face.


    A pink tinge appeared on her pale cheeks.


    Nice to meet you,” she murmured sheepishly.


    “Forgive me, but I couldn’t help but notice your perfume.” Westin stared at her with a charming smile, “It


    is quite unique. I haven’t found anybody else to wear it besides you.”


    Priya’s eyes gleamed joyfully, “You haven’t because I designed my own perfume. It is the one and only


    kind in the whole world.”


    “Impressive.”


    The smile on Westin’s lips widened as he asked, “So you are the only person in this world who smells


    like this?”


    Priya nodded, “Yes. That is right.”


    Westin chuckled.


    He stepped back, holding the letter up high in the air, and announced to the entire crowd, “Then I guess


    we have found the proof…This letter smells exactly like Lady Priya’s perfume!”


    “…WHAT?”


    People gasped in unison, including Lord Rolf.


    The shy smile faded away from Priya’s face instantly, reced by a panicked look.


    Westin handed the letter to Casper and let the letter be passed around the crowd, “The smell is faint.


    But it is there.”


    Casper sniffed the letter.


    His eyes lit up at once.


    Westin was right–The letter did carry a faint hint of perfume!


    “What do you say now, Lady Priya?” Casper raised his voice and asked, “Why is your perfume on the


    letter that was sent to the mercenary?”


    Priya shivered, looking as though she was going to pass out the next second.


    “I–I don’t know…” she gasped, “There must be someone else who wears the same perfume as I do-”


    Westin raised a brow, “But you said it yourself and I quote ‘the one and only kind in the whole world.”


    Priya’s breath became shallow, “M–My maids! Sometimes I share my perfume with my maids


    “But that makes no sense.”


    Priya’s lips trembled.-


    Tears slowly welled up in her eyes.


    “Priya?”


    Priya inhaled sharply, her body shaking like a leaf in the wind.


    “…is your fault,” she murmured.


    “What did you say?” Lord Rolf didn’t hear her clearly.


    “I said…”


    Priya snapped her head up, her teary ears zing with rage and hatred.


    “…it is YOUR FAULT!!!”
