Richard's POV:
Upon hearing this, I rushed to the window and sure enough, many armed guards swarmed the
grounds.
They were Rufus's subordinates.
Rufus emerged from the crowd with a stone cold face.Then, he looked up at my direction.
"Besiege this place.Don't let even a fly escape."
"Yes, sir!" the guards responded in a deafening roar.
Those who were trapped in the teaching affairs office were so scared that they couldn't even scream.
They shrank back, not daring to move.
Utterly aghast, I rushed downstairs and out of the building.
"Rufus! What the hell are you doing?"
He knew I was the one in charge of the school now.
How could he bring his men here to embarrass me? Since he didn't bother to show me some respect, I
refused to be polite with him.
"You crossed the line!"
I roared, rushing over to him.
"Explain yourself!"
However, Rufus's men stopped me before I could get close to him.
"Prince Richard, calm down." I kicked them away angrily.
"Fuck off.Go and calm down yourself."
Rufus didn't even look at me.
Instead, he took a torn, blood-stained school uniform from a nearby maid and asked in an ice cold
voice, "Who's responsible for the new school uniforms?"
Rufus had made such a big scene that everyone was scared out of their minds.
They lowered their heads and didn't dare to make a sound, lest they attract unnecessary attention.I
sneered unhappily.
"Rufus, since when did you get involved in the school's affairs?"
"I'll ask you one more time," Rufus said in a dangerously low voice.
"Who's responsible for new school uniforms?"
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
This was my first time to see Rufus so emotional.
"What's making you so angry?" I asked indifferently, crossing my hands over my chest.
Rufus glanced at me flippantly then looked around at the terrified faces in front of him.
"What's going on? You don't even dare to answer me?"
Everyone exchanged nervous glances before finally looking at Kyle, the director of teaching affairs
office standing at the edge of the crowd.
All the color drained from Kyle's face.
He stepped forward, his legs shaking like a leaf.
"Why...what's the matter?"
"So, are you the one who's responsible?"
Rufus strode over to Kyle, holding up the school uniform.
A terrifyingly ominous aura emanated from his body.
"Yes," Kyle squeaked.
His short golden hair was combed behind his ears, and his rose-scented perfume choked anyone who
got close.
I covered my nose in disgust.
Why did I feel as though it smelled so familiar? Kyle slowly backed away, until he had hit the wall.
There was no way out for him.
Rufus closed in on him and threw the uniform at his face.
"The fabric of this school uniform has been tainted with poison."
Kyle's face grew even paler.
He took the school uniform with trembling hands and asked, "What...How is this possible?"
Rufus sneered.
"'How is this possible'? Are you asking really asking me that?"
"I...I don't understand what you're talking about."
Kyle plucked up some semblance of courage and raised his voice.
"Anyone who wears this school uniform will be eroded by a chronic poison until they die of heart
failure.As the one in charge of the new school uniforms, don't you know about this?"
Rufus's face was dangerously cold, and his eyes were filled with horrible cruelty.
"I don't know anything about that.It's the factory's fault!"
Kyle retorted loudly, throwing the school uniform in the ground.
"You can't just frame anyone because you are a prince!"
"He's right, Rufus.Let's have a nice talk."
I watched this scene unfold with much delight.
I walked over to Rufus and picked up the school uniform from the ground.
"Whose is this? Why do you have to make a fuss?"
When I saw the name on the uniform, I found that it was Sylvia's.I sneered.
"Rufus, if you don't have any evidence, you can't just come here and start a fight.Besides, Kyle and
Sylvia have no enmity towards each other.There's no reason for him to poison her."
"There is a reason!"
Just then, a beautiful she-wolf suddenly emerged from the crowd and pointed at Lucy, who was
standing behind me.
"They wanted to hurt Sylvia in such a vicious way because we witnessed their love affair!"
