Chapter 1105 Little Trick
Chapter 1105 Little Trick
Crystal's POV: I hurried out of the palace, fuming. My feet thumped heavily on the marble floor because of my anger. If Rufus hadn't said something nice in the end, I might have been tempted to kill him today.
"Don't be angry. This is all Adela's fault. She is so smart that she even came up with the idea of using witchcraft that could make Rufus mistake someone irrelevant for his mate," Yana yawned and consoled me softly.
I pursed my lips tightly, feeling very unhappy. "Rufus is usually so sharp. How could he have been so easily fooled? I'm afraid that he simply wants this."
Yana clicked her tongue and said, "Why do I sense that you're jealous? I thought someone had decided to be very generous and had even said that she would bless Rufus!"
"Of course, I will bless him, on the condition that he marries the right woman. Anyway. I've revealed my true thoughts to him today. Now I don't need to pretend to be nice to Adela in the future," I mumbled without confidence.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"Well, it's your choice. I will support you unconditionally anyway.” Yana reluctantly had to end the topic.
Walking on my usual route, I passed the palace where Rufus and I used to reside. Every time I went by this way, I would look at it, and then sit by the pond nearby.
The view of this area was gorgeous, and everything had been carefully crafted. However, I was in no mood to appreciate it today. I just wanted to sit quietly by the pond and lose myself in my thoughts.
At this moment, someone called my name from behind me. Puzzled, I turned around and saw that it was Adela. She was standing a little away from me and watching me with a scowl.
"Why are you here?"
l ignored her question and got to my feet, ready to leave.
But Adela grabbed my arm and
scrutinized me sullenly. "I've never
heard of the king having a child.
Whose c child is it? Is that child really
yours? You didn't collude with him to
put My leg, did you?" Content

"What do you think?" I eyed her defiantly. The more agitated she became, the happier I would be. Sometimes, I truly felt like I'd become a bad person, but so what? I wasn't ready to give in
Adela's face contorted with suppressed rage. "Is that true?"
"Of course. Rufus doesn't have to lie, and neither do I. Beryl's eyes are so similar to mine. It's hard to miss it."
Hearing my reply, Adela fell silent. She studied my eyes, which were not covered by my mask, carefully. Her face darkened
I was not interested in continuing entangling with her. I made to leave.
Adela grasped my arm again and mocked, 'l was wondering what skills you possessed to become the Alpha of a pack at such a young age. It turns Gut that you got that position by s eeping your way up. You gave o]] ro the king's baby. So what? He C

I paused then, took two steps toward her, and continued, "l promise you, you will never become the queen."
Adela's expression changed drastically and she stared at me in shock.
