Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight

Chapter 628 Exposed

Sylvia’s POV:

“Richard! Why the hell would you do such a thing?!” Ethan instantly flew into a rage. Without thinking, he strode over to Richard and slapped him across the face. “Haven’t you repented?”

Richard covered his swollen cheek. Eyes wide as saucers, he looked so stunned he couldn’t even speak.

“How dare you look at me like that? Spit it out, boy! Are you the one behind this?” Ethan was so angry that he raised his leg and kicked Richard on the chest.

This brought Richard to his senses and he cried out, “Why would I do that? I’ve been so busy with work every single damned day! How would I have found the time to do such a thing?”

After saying that, his eyes darted over to me and Rufus. He said sincerely, “It really wasn’t me. Do you believe me? I’m done with my old ways. Why would I make trouble for all of us?”

The truth was, I didn’t believe Richard. Only a select few people knew about the curse. Besides, with Rufus gone, Richard would have nothing to lose but everything to gain.

“I should never have let you out of the dungeon!” Ethan roared. Obviously, he didn’t believe Richard either. He was so angry that his whole b*ody trembled.

Richard wore an aggrieved expression and slumped his shoulders. But we were all tired of this hypocritical look.

Everyone fell silent for a moment, not knowing what to say. Finally, Rufus spoke up. “Father, calm down. Let’s see what’s going on first.”

Only then did Ethan look to his confidant for an explanation. His confidant quickly handed the phone to Ethan and said, “It all started with a post on the Internet.”

The rest of us also took out our phones to check.

Sure enough, the post made headlines. The article was very in-depth, including even the details about how Rufus went berserk every full moon night and how he couldn’t have any children.

The article went so far as to state Rufus’ age when he had been cursed, and that even his mother didn’t know about it. Everything in the article was accurate, down to the last detail. Evidently, whoever wrote it had to be someone close to the royal family.

Now everyone was certain that it was Richard who did it. Scrolling through the comments, I couldn’t help but frown.

At first, most of the netizens didn’t believe it because Rufus had been set up before and his name was cleared later on.

Because this wasn’t their first rodeo, the netizens weren’t so quick to believe such claims anymore.

When the news spread that Rufus had made great contributions at the border, his reputation as a good prince had been established. As a result, he won the hearts of a lot of political fans.

Thus, many werewolves believed that Rufus was being framed again. But later on, the public opinion gradually shifted.

Someone had anonymously posted a video in which Geoffrey talked about the curse on Rufus in public. The video was clear and smooth, without any trace of editing.

So, now the netizens were divided into two groups.

Some held the opinion that it didn’t matter whether Rufus was cursed or not. Leadership qualities were more important for a ruler, while it didn’t matter whether they could have descendants or not. Others felt that although Rufus was innocent, he wasn’t qualified to be the heir to the lycan throne. After all, to them, it was integral that a lycan king continue their bloodline.

There was even a small group of werewolves who began to claim that Richard was the destined heir. The Internet was an explosion of debates regarding this matter.

Rufus closed his eyes and rubbed the spot between his brows. Putting down his phone, he looked at Ethan and said grimly, “It’s too late to have the post taken down.”

Ethan didn’t answer him at first. After a while, he said, “We have to distract the public and stop them from talking about it first.”

Just as Rufus and Ethan started to discuss countermeasures, Laura’s trembling voice suddenly sounded from behind us.

“What the hell is going on?” When I turned around, I found that all the color had drained from Laura’s face. She looked at us as though we were ghosts.

Oh, my God! I felt terrible. In the heat of the moment, we all forgot that Laura had no idea that Rufus was cursed.

We even talked about it in front of her. It was obviously too late to go back on our words and cover things up.

Now, we couldn’t hide the truth from her any longer.
