Rufus' POV:
"You have to promise us that you won't send anyone to interfere. If you use your prestige as an Alpha to order the citizens to side with you, it'll be difficult for us to join the bet," Flora said seriously.
"Don't worry. Just as I said just now, if I wanted to interfere with you, I wouldn't even have offered to bet with you in the first place. On the contrary, TH even order my people to cooperate with you. If I make things difficult for you in any way, I'd lose the bet." Geoffrey looked sincere yet confident. After all, he even bet at the risk of his position as Alpha.
"Don't you dare go back on your word, Geoffrey." Flora also spoke with confidence. Then, she looked at me expectantly, as if she was asking for my consent.
For a moment, I was hesitant and fell silent.
The truth was, when I saw the attitude of the audience towards the killing show, I knew that things were not as simple as I had thought.
Besides, Geoffrey was no fool. He wouldn't bet on something he wasn't sure of. Since he was the one who suggested the bet, it meant that he was certain that he would win.
But now that Sylvia was still in his hands, I had no choice but to play his games.
"Prince Rufus, what do you think? It's not a bad deal, if you ask me." Geoffrey also turned to me expectantly.
I pursed my lips. "Okay."
"Good. I know that Prince Rufus is looking at the bigger picture."
