Chapter 1285
Crystal’s POV:
Laura was so frightened by Noreen’s words that she fainted. Fortunately, the doctors had arrived and immediately swarmed to her to check on her condition.
lan was in a bad state, bleeding profusely on the ground.
Rufus briskly asked the veterinarian to treat Ian
Finally, I let go of lan and let the veterinarian take over.
A tearful Arron came over and used a handkerchief to wipe the b***d on my hands. In a small, shaky voice, he tried to comfort me.
“Don’t worry,
Mommy. Ian will be fine.”
My little boy was so smart. He didn’t mention Beryl. Maybe he was afraid that I’d be too sad if he did.
I bent down to k**s his head and murmured softly, “It’s okay. Everything will be fine.”
I said this to comfort him, but mostly to comfort myself.
Truth be told, I wasn’t expecting Noreen to confess so soon. Now that she did, I dreaded what she was going to do next.
Worse yet, she mentioned that it’d be extremely difficult to get the real
Beryl back.
The mere thought made my legs go weak. Fortunately, before I completely collapsed, Rufus caught me in time.
“Arron, be a good boy and go with Cedric.”
Rufus asked a young military officer to take care of Arron in the meantime.
“Okay, Daddy.”
Arron nodded obediently and then followed the officer out.
“Your Majesty, this wolf’s wound is very deep. We need to send him to the Royal Hospital for stitches as soon as possible,” the vet said anxiously.
“Okay, then take him there now.”
Rufus immediately gave the order. Both Laura and lan were rushed to the hospital by the doctors.
Now, only I, Rufus, Noreen and a group of soldiers were left.
In order not to cause a panic, Rufus asked the soldiers to leave and forbade them from talking about what they had just seen.
Noreen sneered proudly. “No need to be so cautious. You royals are so stupid, especially Laura.
She completely fell for my act and was
defenseless. If I wanted to kill her, I would’ve killed her a thousand times over. But I figured I could use her, so I didn’t.”
I couldn’t stand it anymore. With gritted teeth, I rushed up and slapped
her on the face.
“Enough! Just because you’re in Beryl’s body, doesn’t
mean you can do whatever you want!”

Noreen couldn’t believe what I just did. Beryl’s chubby face turned red immediately.
My heart ached, but I forced myself to look away, telling myself that she wasn’t the real Beryl.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Mommy, why did you hit me? It hurts…
” Noreen cried in Beryl’s voice.
I roared, “Don’t you dare use my daughter’s voice!”
“Mommy, don’t you love me? Don’t you like my voice?”
For a moment, I actually thought it was Beryl, so I turned around in surprise.
But the second I looked at her face, Noreen cracked a sinister smile. “I can’t believe you still fell for that! I just told you that I replaced Beryl’s soul with mine. She’s not coming back.”
“I don’t believe you. Give back my Beryl!” I was on the verge of breaking down and nearly attacked Noreen again, but Rufus stopped me.
“Crystal, calm down..
I looked at Rufus with tearful eyes and a lump in my throat. “How can I calm down? That’s our baby!”
Rufus’ eyes were also filled with pain. “I know. But if we kill Noreen now, she won’t tell us how to get our Beryl back.
“You’re so calm, mighty lycan king.” Noreen opened her mouth and let out a low and vicious laughter. Her eyes gradually turned pure black, and a fog began to shroud her whole body. “I’ll tell you what happened to Beryl. She’s dead!”
