Chapter 514

Third Person’s POV

On hearing this, the three of them immediately became grave.

Paisley wasn’t one to speak idly. Though playful and fun–loving, she was always dependable when it came

to serious matters.

Her words, coupled with her presence today, likely had to do with Miss Shuman.

Back at the Hutchinson’s house, Paisley had all the servants leave the room.

She said, “This Shuman girl isn’t really Astria. Her real name is Asa. The Spectrehowl Pack has a reason for approaching Eugene. We can’t agree to this mating, but we can’t refuse outright either. Since I came with you to the Spectrehowl Pack today, an immediate refusal might lead to some unexplained situations and could affect Adelaide and my upcoming plans.”

Sibyl’s heart sank, and she felt a pang of sadness. “She lied to me? We’re related, how could she deceive me like this?”

Paisley responded, “Asa may not be a bad person. She might even be in the dark. But we need to investigate further.”

“Stall them for a month or so. Don’t confirm the mating under any circumstances. Otherwise, not only will your family’s reputation be at risk, but I’m afraid Asa won’t end up well either.”

Sibyl frowned and said, “Why is this so complicated?”

Genevieve stood up and took Sibyl’s arm, saying, “Let’s go outside and leave Paisley to talk with Eugene. Some things are better left unsaid in our presence, lest we can’t help but speak out of turn.”

Genevieve knew when to keep her distance. Sensing that Paisley’s words held deeper implications, she understood that some details were meant for Eugene’s ears only. Thus, she promptly escorted Sibyl out of
