The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Crystal's POV:
Even after eating, Beryl still refused to let me touch her. She flat-out rejected my attempts to even grasp her hand. The moment I touched her, she began crying.
Eventually, I gave up and didn't get close to her anymore. Instead, I sat on the couch and watched her talk to her father.
Frustrated, I took out my phone and saw a voice message from Harry. He sent it about two hours ago.
When I clicked on the voice message, I heard a young boy's voice saying, "Mommy, I miss you." As a result of being surprised, I immediately turned the volume down. Both Beryl and Rufus turned to me as soon as they heard the sound. When I saw how the two nearly identical faces grimaced at the same time, I felt a strange pang of remorse.
I let out a dry laugh and was about to say something, but Rufus bent his head and resumed his conversation with Beryl, as if he didn't want to talk to me.
I touched my nose and felt even the air around us felt awkward.
Beryl and Rufus were engaged in a paper-folding game. Although Rufus wasn't exactly in a cheerful mood, he patiently accompanied her anyhow.
Seeing the beaming smile on Beryl's face, I was lost in my thoughts. Although my two children rarely brought up the topic of their father, I knew they still longed for one. I'm aware that sometimes, I might not be able to provide them the comfort and dependence they needed from a fatherly figure. Rufus was the first person Beryl saw when she opened her eyes after she had lost her memory. She was so eager to see him as his father. This was probably the strongest desire in Beryl's heart.
It was sad and I felt guilty about it. After this incident, I realized how inadequate I was as a mother. Beryl even didn't want me to get close to her after she lost her memory.
I sniffed and did my best to hide my grief. I was afraid that Beryl wouldn't talk to me anymore. Slalch Thi Find_Nøvel.let website on Googll to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Do not feel down. Perhaps in the next days she will feel better and remember you," Rufus said in a cold voice.
For a while there, I just buried my head down between my knees and refused to acknowledge his presence.
"How about you take Beryl home with you tonight? And then-"
"No! Daddy, don't you want me? I won't make any noise. I will be quiet. Please Daddy, don't drive me away."
Beryl interrupted her father.
Hearing the little girl's aggrieved voice, I couldn't help but raise my head and glare at Rufus. "No. Beryl will stay here with you!"
Stumped, Rufus stuttered, "Alright, alright. If you have no problem with it."
The anger welled up inside of me, and I let out a snort directed at Rufus while clenching my teeth. Just how did this evil man manage to win over the heart of his daughter?
And Beryl... After she lost her memory, she had become extremely attached to Rufus-a man she had never met before! Why?
I couldn't help but feel envious as I watched Beryl settle in Rufus' embrace and sweetly call him "Daddy." Before she lost her memory, Beryl wasn't quite so dependent and clingy to me. But look at her now... She followed Rufus everywhere.
I'd like for her to be really attached to me, too.
Now that she lost her memory, I had to endear myself to her.
My envy was eating me alive.
I scratched my hair and felt restless. I even wanted to punch Rufus.
Just then, someone outside reported that Laura had arrived.
