Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince novel Chapter 272

Lucy's POV: 

As Sylvia ran off with Rufus, Ethan dispatched a large number of men to chase after them.

In the meantime, I was sent to the hospital for my , wounds to be treated.

The doctors there conducted a thorough physical examination.

As soon as I walked out of the examination room, I found Ethan and Richard waiting for me by the door.

"How do you feel?" Ethan asked, his forehead creased with concern.

Stunned, I glanced at Richard subconsciously.He winked at me meaningfully.I knew that he wanted me to continue with the pitiful act.

"What's the matter? You must tell the doctors if you feel anything off,"

Ethan added quickly when I didn't respond fast enough.

"No, no.I'm fine, and so is the baby,"

I lowered my head and answered respectfully, twiddling my thumbs nervously.If I wanted the baby to be born without a hitch, then he needed to be born as a prince.I needed to completely conceal the fact that the baby's father was Kyle, not Richard.

Ethan sighed with relief.

"That's good.I'll have the best doctors treat the wounds on your face.Don't lose hope, my dear girl.Just take good care of yourself and the baby for the time being."

I nodded, not daring to say anything more.

I felt extremely bad.

Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that my face would be permanently disfigured one day.I was thankful to be alive, but...

Glancing at Richard once more, that damned hypocrite, I knew that there was still a tough hill to climb.

Richard reached out his hand and slipped it around my waist.

In an overly affectionate tone, he said, "Even if your face scars, I'll still love you.After all, I love you for who you are, not your appearance."

Because Ethan was here, I had no choice but to hide the disgust in my heart.

I let Richard hold me and forced a smile.

"Good.Mates should love each other, and now that you two have accepted each other as mates, you'll be together for the rest of your lives.Richard, take good care of Lucy.Don't let me catch you treating her poorly, "

Ethan said to Richard in a low, ominous voice.

"Of course I'll take care of her, Father.I'm willing to protect her with my life!"

As he spoke, Richard looked at me tenderly.

This sent a shiver down my spine and it took all of my willpower not to gag on the spot.

This bastard was even better at acting than me.

"Alright.If there's nothing else, help Lucy back home and let her rest," Ethan said wearily.

He looked exhausted.

Waving his hand dismissively, he asked Richard and me to leave.
