Richard's POV:
I could sense from my father's tone that he was very sad. And he also kept sighing. He said, "As a father, my only wish is for my children to live peacefully, healthily, and happily. Even if he is mediocre, it doesn't matter as long as he can live a comfortable life. It's all my fault. I failed to handle my relationship well back then."
"Don't be too sad. Remember, you still have Prince Richard. He's getting more and more motivated nowadays," Fitch said to comfort him.
I was very happy to hear Pitch's compliment on me.
He was my father's confidant. And being praised by him was quite useful.
But when my father spoke again, there was a hint of hesitation in his tone. "Richard? Indeed, he's been really active recently."
I didn't understand what my father meant. Was he also complimenting me?
Then he continued, "But it's good that he is motivated. He is making some progress. So although he is not as good as Rufus, I brought him back just in case. If the curse on Rufus won't be dispelled, I have no other choice. I can only pass the throne to Richard."
As I continued to hide outside the door and listened, I was so angry with my father's words that I almost wanted to explode. He obviously meant that he only took me as Rufus' substitute. So up to now, he still never gave up the idea of letting Rufus inherit the throne. No matter how well I performed and how many things I did for him, I would never be comparable to Rufus in his eyes.
I clenched my fists tightly, feeling like my heart was extremely twisted by anger. But soon, I calmed down. No matter how powerful Rufus was, he would never have the chance to inherit the throne as long as he couldn't get rid of his curse.
"I think it's time for you to give up on that. Until now, we still haven't found any clue about that witch," Fitch said again. "For more than twenty years, you have been looking for a way to remove the curse. But you still haven't found anything. I think this is fate. Maybe Prince Rufus is destined to be like this for the rest of his life."
I couldn't agree more with Fitch. This was fate, and even God was helping me. Rufus was doomed to fail.
My father was silent for a long time.
"Maybe it's time for you to let go of the obsessions. Now that Prince Rufus' mania has been exposed to the public, the citizens can no longer accept him," Fitch added.
I couldn't help but applaud Fitch. Every word he said was what I wanted to hear, but I didn't know what my father was thinking.
"Actually, being manic doesn't matter that much in inheriting the throne," my father said slowly. slath the (F)indNivl.let website on Googll to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
I got flustered at once. How could it not matter? If Rufus became the lycan king and went berserk every now and then, I would be the first person he'd kill.

I really wanted to rush in and wake my father up. I wanted to tell him that I was the best heir. But couldn't do that. Once he found out that I was En eavesdropping, he would definitely be angry. My father was more terrifying than the vampires when he was angry. The content is on

"You can consider declaring Prince Richard as your heir. I've been observing him these days, and I could say that he is a qualified heir except for his bad temper," Fitch advised.

"You've noticed that too?" My father gave a short laugh and then said in an anxious tone, "But Richard still has no descendant either, even though he has had a lot of affairs outside since he became an adult and even has a mate now. Could it be that he is also affected by the curse? After all, the witch cursed not only me but also my children. Although the witch didn't know Richard's existence when she
put a curse on me, Richard is also my child." The content is on

Fitch sighed helplessly. "Yes. If Prince Richard has a child, you can declare him
as your heir."
Upon hearing this, my eyes widened. The baby in Lucy's belly suddenly came to my mind.
