Adeline's heart skipped a beat as she heard what Caleb had said.
What did he find out?
She panicked internally; she had been so blinded by jealousy that she didn't take her time to come up with a fail-proof plan. And, now, it looked like this stupid doctor was about to spew rubbish about her.
No! She won't let that happen.
"What is it, Caleb?" Alpha Lake asked, folding his hands on his chest.
"Um, I kind of noticed that-"
"Ah! It hurts, Alpha. Please help me!" Adeline cried, holding her chest for emphasis.
"It was her!" She pointed at Audrey, "Catherine put me in this condition, Alpha. Punish her!" Adeline was now wailing hopelessly.
Audrey chose to keep quiet, to see what Alpha Lake would do. If he ever believed Adeline for a second, then she'd waste no time in doing what was on her mind.
Alpha Lake sighed and looked at Audrey for a long time, she was also holding his gaze, daring him to make the wrong decision.
