Abandoned by the Alpha, I Became the Lycan King's Mate Chapter 376 brings disgrace on oneself

[Margaret’s Perspective]

The maid rejected my request to unlock the handcuffs, and she didn’t move at all from outside the door even when I went to the bathroom.

Sitting on the toilet, I carefully observed the layout of the restroom and, finding no chance to escape, decisively chose to give up. It seed that the only opportunity for and Brand would be during outings.

After finishing in the bathroom, I turned the water at the sink to its maximum, using the noise to cover the conversation between the maid and , "This isn’t the usual place where you detain captives, is it? Is the second floor where your master lives? Will she be back tonight? Why do so of you refer to her as ’Miss’ and others as ’Master’?"

While speaking, I turned to look at her with a smile on my face, "Don’t be so tense; I was just asking casually. If you think there’s sothing you can answer, then tell . It’s fine if you don’t speak about the rest."

At that mont, the maid looked up at . Still, she didn’t speak, but her eyes relaxed a bit defensively, "You must be talking about Miss Lillian. We are not accustod to calling the master ’Miss’. If you’re finished here, please co out. The young master will co after you’ve had your al."

I turned off the water at her words, but my eyes remained on her, "The young master you ntioned, isn’t it Henry? What is his relation to your master?"

My question went unanswered, and seeing this, I slowly nodded, understanding I would not get anything out of her.

Being handcuffed was quite inconvenient, so the al with Brand took a long ti, but the maid did not urge us at all. If it hadn’t been for the clarity of the situation just then, I almost would have felt like a guest invited by them, not at all like a captive.

After the al, Brand and I did not et MASTER, but unexpectedly, an uninvited guest showed up.

During the day today, I had felt that Lillian wouldn’t let off easily, and sure enough, now she ca to provoke again!

"Henry really took great care of you. Look at the décor of this basent; if outsiders didn’t know, they might think you’re a VIP on Poison Snake Island!"

Upon entering, Lillian first looked around the basent, then said in a sowhat sarcastic tone.

Brand and I had no intention of responding to her, and suddenly the basent was incredibly silent.

Seeing this, Lillian’s expression darkened, apparently displeased by my disregard, "I forgot to ask you earlier, when did you and Henry beco so close? I always feel he treats you quite unusually." Lillian’s tone beca ambiguous as she looked down at condescendingly, her gaze filled with disdain and provocation.

I looked up and t her eyes coldly, yet still did not speak.

"Thinking about it, you haven’t even been in Royal City for two months, right? When did you and Henry get to know each other so well? I didn’t think you were anything special before, but now..."

Lillian said, bending down, coming close and mockingly at , she continued, "I think you have so ’thods’. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be manipulating Donald while flirting ambiguously with Henry, not even sparing such a teenager!"

The words from this woman’s mouth beca increasingly unpleasant, so I straightened up slowly and stood, raising my eyebrow and speaking coldly, "No wonder you fit in with this crowd. It turns out you all have the sa dirty tricks! Seeing any man, you probably subconsciously think he should like you, right?"

I said, stepping forward, noting the surprise on Lillian’s face, I scoffed and continued, "I don’t know why you and that woman harbor such strange ideas. I’ll just say this once, I’m not at all close to MASTER, nor do I have anything to do with what you’ve ntioned."

"Actually, I shouldn’t have to explain anything to you, but since you keep bringing it up again and again, it annoys and makes feel foolish, understood? I roughly know why you bring these things up in front of ; you’re still thinking about Donald and believe that sowing discord between him and gives you an opportunity, right?"

Maybe my laugh was too ironic and provocative, causing Lillian’s face to start turning red, like soone had stepped on her tail.

I didn’t care about her mood at the mont and thought for a mont before continuing, "I can guess all the little sches you have in mind, so don’t try to be clever. You can go now since you cannot win the argunt with ; staying here any longer would just be humiliating yourself!"

"Margaret! You... as a lowly captive, what right do you have to speak to like this? No one here can save you now. Do you think I would hesitate to kill you directly?"

Lillian continued, becoming sowhat uncontrollably emotional, with a reddish gleam in her eyes, and her deanor beca sowhat terrifying.

I did not respond to her bluff, just quietly maintained my gaze on her, warning her with my eyes: If you dared to do sothing, it wouldn’t have taken you this long.
