Chapter 104 The Anxious Maya
Maya's POV:
I kept calling Sylvia in the car, but she never picked up her phone.
She was always punctual, and she wouldn't miss my phone calls for no reason. Later her phone was even turned off. The more I thought about it, the more worried I became. Prince Rufus had already asked for leave for her in the afternoon. She should have come to meet me by now.
I looked at the time. If Sylvia didn't appear right now, she would be late for the ball. I couldn't wait any longer.
"I'm going to find Miss Todd. Pull up at the side of the road and wait for me. Just don't block the gate," I said to the driver, got out of the car, and walked towards the academy.
The training ground and the dormitory building were in opposite directions. It was class time now, so I was not sure where to find Sylvia.
At this moment, I saw a werewolf with colorful dyed hair walking in my direction. I remembered that he was Miss Todd's classmate, whose name seemed to be Harry. I looked at him in confusion because he was limping. As far as I could remember, he was a strong werewolf. Why did he look very weak now?
He seemed to have felt my gaze because he turned his head and looked at me. His terrifying eyes swept over me.
My heart tightened, and I quickened my pace.
"Stop!”
A soft and feeble male voice rang out behind me. Then he hissed as if his was in pain.
"Are you okay?” I asked as I approached him cautiously.
Harry waved his hand weakly and the two swelling bumps on his forehead became brighter under the sunlight.
"Aren't you the she-wolf with Sylvia? Why are you in such a hurry? Are you looking for her?"
I nodded and said, "Yes. My name is Maya. It's an urgent matter, so I have to immediately find her. Do you have any idea where she is right now?"
Harry shook his head and stretched his arms, revealing his strong muscles. "I heard that she asked for leave in the afternoon. You can go to her room to find her."
I was a little confused by his behavior. I didn't know why he had to show his muscles while talking. But I didn't have time to care too much about it. All I wanted was to find Sylvia as soon as possible.
"Okay, I'll go to the girls' dormitory to find her. Goodbye."
After saying this, I ran towards the dormitory building. Harry was still shouting behind me, asking who was stronger between him and Sylvia. What a strange man!
I had never run this fast in my life. I reached the door of Sylvia's room as fast as I could. I knocked for a long time, but no one answered. I opened the door without hesitation. At a glance, I saw the gift box on the table with a note on it.
I picked up the note and realized that something was wrong. Sylvia actually backed out from tonight's ball.
I knew how much Prince Rufus was looking forward to the ball. In the past, he always turned a blind eye to such activities. But this year, everything was different because of Sylvia's existence. I could imagine how disappointed he would be if he found out that Sylvia wouldn't be coming anymore.
But I believed that Sylvia was definitely not someone who would do this for no reason. There must be some misunderstanding.
I immediately took out my phone to call Prince Rufus, hoping he could persuade her to change her mind.
However, he was not answering either. He must be busy with his work at the moment.
I was so anxious that I picked up the gift box and left the room, planning to personally report to him.
But as soon as I reached a corner at the entrance of the dormitory, someone covered my mouth and nose with a cloth. The pungent smell of chemicals penetrated my nostrils. I immediately held my breath and struggled hard, but I still couldn't resist the effect of the drug. My consciousness gradually became fuzzy.
Before I completely lost consciousness, I saw that the hand that covered my mouth and nose had a flamboyant diamond-studded manicure.Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
