The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 550

Sylvia's POV:

Rufus and I were shocked when Leonard approached us. We hurried to help him.

"Why are you here?" I asked, frowning. I couldn't help but sound a little harsh, because I was worried about him.

That day, as soon as the dust settled and the crowd dispersed, Leonard couldn't hold on any longer and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Startled and worried, we sent Leonard to the hospital as quickly as possible.

It wasn't until later that we found out how serious his condition was. His internal injuries were too many to count. He was intact and strong on the surface but riddled with holes and empty inside. He refused to tell his conditions because he didn't want to be pitied.

Fortunately, Leonard looked a lot better today than that time after the riot.

Leonard pushed us away and refused our help with a bright smile. "I'm fine. Stop worrying about me."

I looked at him warily, guilt and sorrow filling my heart.

If I hadn't asked Leonard for help, he wouldn't have had a relapse.

Leonard seemed to have guessed what I was thinking and looked at me disapprovingly. With his hands behind his back, he clicked his tongue and snorted arrogantly. "Don't feel guilty. I don't like it when others feel guilty for me. I was happy when you asked me for help in that critical moment. Besides, I feel like I've regained my strength, leading the army into battle."

After saying that, he threw his head back and burst into laughter. It seemed that his good mood wasn't affected by his injuries at all.

His laughter was infectious. I couldn't help but smile.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Leonard went back to the subject he had brought up when he first entered the room.
