Chapter 557

Third Person’s POV

Caldwell suddenly recalled something and said to Lance, “Alpha Lance, Lycan Erasmus might have known about the commotion at Madison’s mansion tonight. Lycan Clarissa sent holy water and floral tributes, which drew many ladies to Madison’s princess mansion.”

“I’m aware of that; I saw it happen,” Lance replied.

At that moment, Ivy arrived with the food at the study door and respectfully announced their presence.

Adelaide quickly responded, “Bring it in.”

The meal consisted of three dishes–two meat–based and one vegetable— accompanied by a creamy soup and staple food.

After Ivy and her team served the food and exited, she gently closed the study door.

Lance immediately rolled up his sleeves and began eating earnestly; the discomfort of an empty stomach was all too familiar.

Adelaide watched him eat with a tinge of sympathy in her eyes and softly advised, “Don’t eat too quickly.”

“Alright,” Lance said, looking up at Adelaide with a smile. “As

you wish.”

After a few sips of soup, Lance continued eating and said, “This case will likely be handed over to the Ministry of Justice. Once I finish eating, I need to freshen up and prepare for the royal meeting. The impact of this incident is enormous–it will undoubtedly shock the entire royal family and the Elder Council. Ask me anything you need to know now.”

“Focus on eating and don’t talk; you might choke otherwise,” Adelaide cautioned.

In truth, the group had no pressing questions.

The mission was a success, Madison’s secrets were exposed, and the captives were

rescued. The finer details could wait.

As Lance savored a delicious bite of meat, he suddenly remembered something and said, “By the way, it was Ulrik who found those weapons.”

“It was him?” Paisley said with a hint of dismay. “Doesn’t that mean he’ll get all the credit?”

“This recognition isn’t undeserved. He was severely injured in the confrontation. If Ellen had arrived any later, Ulrik might not have made it,” Lance explained.

Caldwell interjected, “This mission wasn’t just about rescue; it uncovered a significant conspiracy. Since the Blackthorn Pack can’t claim the credit, it’s only right that those who risked their lives receive it. Let’s drop the subject. Alpha Lance, finish your meal.”

Caldwell wanted to avoid embarrassing Adelaide by dwelling on Ulrik’s actions, so he urged Lance to hurry up and eat. Lance’s scent was overwhelmingly strong, and Caldwell was eager for him to wash up.

Paisley, however, remained discontented. “I can’t stand the idea of Ulrik getting credit for our plan. Even if Ellen takes some of the praise, it’s better than letting Ulrik have it all.”

She couldn’t forget how Ulrik had wronged Adelaide and schemed to seize her

assets.

Despite their time on the battlefield together, Paisley viewed Ulrik as a different breed and held him in lifelong disdain.

Caldwell chuckled and said, “Ellen will certainly receive recognition too. Ulrik wasn’t alone in the dungeon, so there’s no need to dwell on this.”

Paisley turned to Adelaide and asked, “Does it bother you?”

Adelaide shook her head. “To be honest, recalling the past feels like remembering a past life–so distant that I almost think I never joined the Bloodmoon Pack and that ‘Ulrik‘ sounds like a stranger’s name. If that’s the case, I’ll treat him as a stranger from now on.”

Paisley reluctantly agreed, “Fine, let’s consider him a stranger–a detestable one.”

Adelaide smiled. “Agreed.”

Lance glanced at Adelaide, appreciating her forthrightness.

She never hid her feelings, and he cherished her honesty.

With a smile playing on his lips, Lance finished his meal in a pleasant mood. “Alright, since there are no more questions, let’s call it a night.”

Everyone retired to their rooms.

After a bath, as Lance was drying off, visitors from the Blackthorn Pack arrived.

A messenger from the palace had come to summon him immediately.

It seemed Ellen had already reported the events.

Lance pulled Adelaide close. “Get some rest. You have to visit the Frostfang Pack tomorrow and meet with Ramona.”

Adelaide looked at his weary face. “You’ve worked hard these past few days. The Ministry of Justice will be busy with this case.”

He kissed her forehead. “At least we’ve neutralized one of Germain’s key supports in the capital. Without Madison, Germain will have to rethink many of his plans.”

Adelaide replied, “But convincing him to abandon rebellion won’t be easy.”

“Then we’ll dismantle his plans one by one,” Lance said, adjusting his top hat. “I’m off. Can’t keep Lycan Erasmus waiting.”

“Go ahead,” Adelaide said, watching him disappear into the night before yawning and turning in.

Lance drove directly to the palace.

“Alpha Lance!” Fabian hurried down. “Go on in. Lycan Erasmus and Cyrus are waiting for you.”

In Lycan Erasmus’s study, the light reflected the fury in Lycan Erasmus’s eyes.

Cyrus sat nearby, his expression equally grave.

“Rise,” Lycan Erasmus said gravely. “The matter at Madison’s princess mansion is to be handled by the Ministry of Justice.”

He didn’t elaborate, assuming Lance was already informed.

From this, Lance deduced that Lycan Erasmus had a general understanding of the night’s events, though he likely hadn’t anticipated the rebellion link.
