Chapter 169

Third Person’s POV

The astrologer pointed at the bewildered bartender and scolded, “Who sent you to slander the Frostfang Pack? Alpha Bentley and his six sons sacrificed their lives. Adelaide was made a Golden Claw Gamma and earned honors on the battlefield.

“She assisted Alpha Lance in reclaiming the Southern Border. Any decent citizen of the kingdom would respect Gamma Adelaide. Why are you spreading rumors and defaming her? What is your motive?”

Someone loudly speculated, “They’re likely spies from the Western Tribe, deliberately undermining Gamma Adelaide!”

Another person chimed in, “Right! Have you all forgotten that the she–wolves and pups of the Frostfang Pack were murdered by Western Tribe spies? He might be a spy the Western Tribe planted in the capital! Call the guards!”

The bartender panicked, waving his hands frantically. “N–no, I’m not a Western Tribe spy, I…”

“If you’re not a spy, why would you defame Gamma Adelaide?”

“Yeah, what’s your real intention?”

“Surround him and stop him from escaping!”

With the cries, customers swarmed forward to block the bartender’s escape. Cornered, he faced a barrage of accusations.

Beta Valentine stood at the second–floor restaurant entrance, coldly observing the scene. Only after the bartender was surrounded did he slowly descend the stairs and leave.

The astrologer’s personal intervention and call to the authorities meant Madison would have to spend fortune to silence all the bartenders involved–if she even managed to pin the incident on her.

But the rumors had already spread like wildfire through the city, reaching every bar, café, street corner, and storyteller under the trees, all of whom had been paid off.

If the royal family got involved in a full investigation, it would be a spectacle.
