The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 526

Chapter 526: Unfounded Or Exposed? (I)

"So when you speak to us, you should lower your head, like a proper subject."

Averon’s pupils trembled the moment he heard Primrose’s words. He had never imagined that a woman—someone he saw as beneath him—would dare to insult him so openly.

He was about to say something, but for some reason, Primrose’s golden eyes made him feel uneasy. It felt like her gaze could pierce straight through his skull, locking him in place. For a brief moment, he couldn’t move at all.

"Miss, could you tell us where this jerk imprisoned you and the other women?" Primrose asked Evelia, pretending that she didn’t know anything.

"T-There..." Evelia raised a trembling hand and pointed toward the west wing. "He locked us up there. P-Please hurry... I’m scared those people will move them somewhere else before you can save them."

"They won’t," Edmund spoke firmly. His blue eyes stared sharply at Averon. "I will handle this matter personally, and if anyone dares to interfere with the investigation, I will make sure you pay a heavy price."

Edmund turned his head toward Solene. "Stay with her. Make sure not a single palace soldier dares to touch any of our people again."

Solene straightened at once. "Understood, Your Majesty." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

Without wasting another second, Edmund walked toward the west wing, with Primrose right beside him. They hadn’t brought any soldiers with them to Azmeria Palace, so Edmund had no choice but to handle everything personally.

But somehow... that only made things feel even more dangerous.

Averon, who had been frozen in place, finally managed to gather his strength and immediately followed Edmund. "Your Majesty, as I said before, there’s a misunderstanding. The place she pointed to is a building that is currently under renovation, so I deliberately closed it off."

"Then that makes things easy," Primrose replied before Edmund could speak. "If that’s true, you won’t mind us checking it right now."

Averon gritted his teeth, speaking inwardly.

[Why is she acting so bold all of a sudden? Isn’t she afraid her husband will punish her for talking like that to another noble?]

[And... why hasn’t he said anything to her? Yesterday, he sounded like he couldn’t stand her.]

After thinking for a moment, Averon clicked his tongue inwardly.

[Damn it! They were just acting yesterday!]

[That bastard... he dared to trick me and stab me in the back!]

[Shit... shit... shit! How did that woman even escape from the west wing?!]

Primrose let out a quiet sigh as she heard Averon call Edmund a "bastard" the moment they were no longer on the same side.

If anyone deserved that word, it was Averon himself.
