The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia)
Chapter 1100 Counterattack

Crystal's POV:

I was furious. I was playing with Beryl at the royal kindergarten, when Laura called and said that Adela was pestering Rufus again. So, I persuaded Beryl to come search for him with me. As a result, I arrived at that scene.

If I had reached a little late, the shameless couple would probably have started having sex.

Fortunately, the mask that I wore concealed my enraged contorted face.

"Rufus didn't even try to give me an explanation," I couldn't stop myself from complaining to Yana.

She snorted. "Why should he explain anything to you? The two of them are going to be married soon. It's natural for them to have sex."

I was talking to Yana in the hope of getting some comfort, but I didn't expect her to rub salt into my wound. I said without confidence, "They can't do that. They haven't got married yet. They should have better etiquette than doing so."

My whining amused Yana. "Honey, you've really lost your mind now. Just listen to yourself! As expected, as soon as you're in Rufus' presence, you become a three-year-old child."

I remained quiet. I was in a rotten mood. Beryl had already thrown herself in Rufus' arms, acting like a spoiled child.

At this moment, I suddenly heard Adela curse. It sounded like 'Fuck.'

I frowned and noticed that she looked shell-shocked, which I found quite funny. In a shocked voice, she asked Rufus, "When did you have a child?"

Rufus looked a little displeased. "What? Is it weird? What's wrong with me having a child?"

Seeing the imposter's deflated expression, I was so delighted that I nearly clapped for Rufus.

Although he didn't know that Beryl was his biological daughter, their relationship was just like that of a real father and daughter. It would be difficult for Adela to drive a wedge between them.

I was inwardly gloating. Adela, the scheming bitch, was dreaming of marrying Rufus? Hell no!

"No, it's not like that. It's just that I've never heard of..." Adela stammered. Her cheeks blazed red, and I couldn't figure out if she was shy or angry.

I believed in the latter. As per my observation over the past few days, Adela was not as shy or meek as she portrayed herself to be in front of Rufus.

On the contrary, she reminded me of Alina, but her methods were worse.

Rufus didn't clarify anything. Instead, he gave his tacit approval and let Beryl act wildly.

Noting Adela's frustration, I was happy, and my anger completely evaporated. I lounged on the sofa, waiting for her to flee.

However, Adela quickly pulled

herself together like an

indestructible fighter and poured her

attention into pleasing Beryl. She

complimented Beryl on her pretty

looks several times.

The truth was, children didn't understand adults' concept of beauty Immediately after Adela interrupted Beryl and Rufus for the third time, Beryl became cranky. She pouted and burst into tears.

I stood up and came closer to Rufus to comfort her.

She wiped her tears and buried her head in Rufus ' shoulder, refusing to speak.

Rufus' face darkened as he glanced at Adela indifferently and said, "If you have no other business here, you can leave."

Adela's lips curved up into an awkward smile. Instead of responding to Rufus, she pretended to be concerned about Beryl's condition and said, "Is Beryl feeling unwell?"

Rufus seemed unsure of what had upset Beryl. He stroked her hair and patiently asked, "Beryl, can you tell Daddy why you suddenly started crying? Are you feeling sick?" Beryl moaned and mumbled with a sob, "The scent."

It suddenly struck me that Beryl didn't like the strong perfume Adela was wearing.

She had mild rhinitis and disliked

any pungent smell. She would be uncomfortable for a long time after being exposed to such pungent smells. Adela's perfume, which was jasmine-scented, was Beryl's teast favorite kind, so she automatically started crying.
