The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Lucy's POV:
Adela's expressions shifted at my words. She kept wringing her hands, and looked like she wanted to say something. In the end, though, she only hung her head.
I wasn't stupid. I could instantly tell that something else was wrong. "What is it now?" I asked in a cold voice. "Don't tell me Rufus has already found out that you've been lying to him."
Adela immediately shook her head, but she was biting her lips as though she was debating to say something or not.
I was growing more and more irritated with her. "If you have something to say, just spit it out. Stop wasting my time. No one here likes a wishy-washy person! Laura is a very picky person. Even if you somehow win Rufus over, you will surely have a hard time convincing her."
Adela had the good sense to blush at my rebuke. "Rufus hasn't found out anything. He trusts me, but I'm still worried. He... He doesn't seem to like me at all."
"Doesn't like you? What's that supposed to mean? Doesn't he see you as his destined mate, bestowed upon him by the Moon Goddess? Why on earth wouldn't he like you?"
My frown deepened as I was reminded yet again just how much of an imbecile this girl was. She had been handed an opportunity of a lifetime, but she couldn't even take full advantage of it. "Did you do as I said?" I prodded impatiently.
Visibly flustered, Adela answered hurriedly, "I did! I assure you, I acted exactly as you instructed, but it's not working. What's worse is that Laura definitely doesn't like me. You said so yourself, she is very picky."
I scoffed at her in disdain. "If you can't play the role well, then I can offer no other solution. I already told you that Rufus was not one to be easily fooled. I told you to be careful and to not make even the slightest mistake."
"But I've been very careful! I followed everything you said, including the little details on my facial expressions. Perhaps it is your methods that are flawed." The bitch actually had the audacity to question my plans and blame her failure on me.
"Since you think so, then stop following my instructions from now on. You can do whatever you like. Let's see if Rufus will even spare you a glance."
Adela might appear like an innocent
girl, but her true nature was that of a wild, uncultured wench. Even now, she could barely hide the lust and greed in her eyes whenever she mentioned Rufus' name. How dare she act all high and mighty in front of me? It was no wonder that Laura could

probably tell what kind of person Adela was at a single glance. Compared with Alina, Adela still had a long way to go in terms of scheming.
Adela must have realized that I was mad for real, because she quickly changed her tone and tried to mollify me. "That's not what I mean. Your instructions have actually been very helpful. Without them, Rufus wouldn't have decided to marry
me
in the first place."
I narrowed my eyes at her and felt a little sorry for Rufus for sending a dimwit to seduce him. I could have chosen any other plain Jane of low status, and she would still be leagues better than Adela. "Are you angry?" Adela asked cautiously. Her timid expression was not unlike Sylvia's when she had first entered the palace.
I shook my head inwardly. Even if Sylvia had committed an unforgivable crime, she was still his one and only love. Perhaps the only reason he kept Adela around was because of her deliberately crafted similarities with Sylvia.
Who could have imagined that the magnificent and noble king was nothing more than a pathetic sod in the face of love?
"I will do as you say, okay? Don't be mad anymore, okay?" Adela was obviously scared that I would stop helping her.
