The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 657

Sylvia's POV:

Carol and I both insisted on our respective opinions. We were in a stalemate, so Blair took me to the guards to look at the surveillance video.

We meticulously watched the surveillance video and sure enough, we didn't see Carol get in or out of the school gate.

"Did you really mistake someone else as Carol?" Blair worriedly asked as he turned to look at me. "It doesn't seem like Carol is lying."

All kinds of thoughts raced through my mind as my face turned deathly pale. If Carol wasn't the one who appeared in the library, then it had to be someone else. And the answer was obvious.

It was Noreen. She disguised herself as Carol.

I remembered when Rufus told me that black witches were good at disguising themselves and hide among the crowd. I figured she must have disguised herself as Carol in the library this time around.

Noreen's witchcraft was flawless. I couldn't see a single mistake in her transformation even when we were talking face to face.

It would be horrible if she could disguise as pretty much anyone without us noticing.

"Maybe I did make a mistake," I trailed off as I absentmindedly walked out of the monitoring room with Blair.

Noreen acted faster than we thought. She probably sneaked into the imperial capital and hid among us a long time ago. We just didn't notice it.

What was Noreen's plan? She had been pulling the strings and we still had no idea what she wanted and what we would end up with.

When Blair offered to escort me out of the school, I refused and simply left on my own in low spirits.

On the way back, I began to panic. I kept suspecting each person who passed by me to be Noreen.

My heart raced as my body trembled. It didn't take long for my anxiety to take over, and when it did, I sprinted all the way to the imperial palace as if someone was chasing after me.

I felt somewhat better when I saw the familiar palace.

I jumped and happily wrapped my arms and legs around him while kissing his cheek. "I love that swing so much!"

"You already saw it?" Rufus asked with wide eyes.

I nodded. "Yes. They're planting a pear tree."

Rufus supported my bum with his hands as he walked to the bedroom. Then, he reached out for something from the shelf and handed it to me. When I glanced down at it, I noticed that it was an invitation card.

I gave him a bewildered look as I reluctantly took it. "What's this?"

"The wedding invitation that Leonard sent me."

When I opened it and read the contents of the card, my eyes widened in surprise.

Oh my God. Alina was getting married!
