The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 1144

Lucy's POV:

Wrapped in a blanket, I sat on the balcony and watched the snow fall from the sky as night fell. My thoughts were all over the place.

It was yet another winter without Kyle by my side.

When springtime arrived and the air warmed up, I wondered if I would finally feel better.

With that, I straightened up and drank some wine. I had to think on my feet. Apparently, Rufus had called a doctor urgently earlier, but after that, nothing else happened. I thought that Beryl should have survived.

But it didn't matter. That girl was not my real target this time.

As I kept a low profile these years, I had also quietly trained and placed trusted subordinates in the imperial palace. I had used everyone I could to execute my plan this time. Although I had indeed been too anxious, I couldn't wait any longer.

Despite Rufus' memory loss, his feelings for Sylvia did not change, even after she had changed her name and identity to Crystal. There was little certainty that they wouldn't reconcile and get back together in the future.

I wouldn't allow her son to be the heir to the throne; or my forbearance over the years would be in vain.

Firman must be given that opportunity. I'd make sure he'd succeed the throne whatever it took, even if it didn't actually belong to him.

I gulped down all the red wine and chucked the glass out the balcony. Then I turned around and

picked up the phone from the table.

It was already late. My men hadn't contacted me yet, which made me very uneasy. I was afraid that something went wrong.
