Adela's POV:
I could feel my hatred burning in my eyes as I glared at Crystal. This bitch was always out to ruin my plans! If it hadn't been for her, I might have already had sex with Rufus.
As expected, hideous people did nothing but cause trouble. Her disfigured face was likely the Moon Goddess' retribution for all the awful things she had done.
"I'm not trying to thwart you or anything." Crystal had the audacity to blink innocently at me.
"The why are you always messing up my plans, huh?" I demanded through gritted teeth.
I never got along with Crystal since the moment we met. I told myself I should just put up with her. She was still an Alpha, after all. It would be bad if I provoked her. I'd decided to just steer clear from her. What I didn't expect was that she would repeatedly mess with me at practically every turn.
It hadn't been just once or twice that she had interrupted my time alone with Rufus. And today, she had finally gone too far! I just knew that she had deliberately brought that brat over to make a scene.
"I did no such thing," Crystal shrugged. "It was just a coincidence, nothing more." Her tone was haughty, as if to tell me that there was nothing I could do even if I were right.
"How many coincidences can there be?" I all but screeched at her. "You and I both know that you're doing it on purpose!"
Rage was bubbling inside my chest, and I could feel that I was nearing the end of my tether. This bitch had crossed the line! How dare she disrespect me, her future queen!
Thinking of this, I decided to dispense with the fake niceties and nip the problem in the bud. "Listen here. I know you're not satisfied with me, but I am the one who saved Rufus, and I am his destined mate, guided by the Moon Goddess herself. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because Rufus has been tolerating you all this time. You're just a minister in his court! I am the future queen. As things stand, I am already your master."
Crystal had the gall to laugh at my face. "But you aren't the queen yet, so why are you already throwing your weight around? Are you even sure that Rufus will marry you?"
What the hell was this bitch talking about now?
Why wouldn't Rufus marry me? I was the only one he recognized as his mate!
I was the only one destined to become his queen.
I couldn't help but raise my voice. "How dare you say that? Are you trying to question the Moon Goddess' guidance?"
"Oh, please. I'm just saying it as it is,

"You!" I was trembling with fury at this point. A litany of curses was at the tip of my tongue, but I swallowed thedok. Italy had my imag

"In any case, don't blow a fuse, okay? Just behave yourself. It's not too late for you to turn into a better person." Crystal let out a long, weary sigh. She was making it sound like I was some errant child she had been scolding repeatedly.
Alas, I realized that I couldn't win against this woman's glib tongue. There was nothing else for me to do but to turn on the water works. "You! You're being too much! How can you say that about me? I never did anything wrong. I just wanted to get tecknow Beryl. Why are you always standing in my way?"

"Don't bother getting to know her," Crystal said, her demeanor emeanor suddenly
turning cold and mildly threatening. "It's enough that I know her. Nothing

I sneered at her, my nostrils flaring. "And why would that be?"
Crystal said nothing. Instead, she cocked her head to the side and looked at me
as if I was a fool.

"Because she is Beryl's mother,"
Rufus said lightly from the doorway. "As long as she knows everything about Beryl, that's all that matters." The content is on Popsnovel.com! Read the latest chapter there!
I froze in shock yet again, thinking that I had definitely heard it wrong this time.
"What did you say, Your Majesty?"
Rufus frowned in annoyance. "I said Crystal is Beryl's biological mother."
I felt my face heat up in an instant. If that was true, then that meant that Crystal
and Rufus had had an affair.
Where did that left me, then?
