Sylvia's POV:

When Rufus came to my rescue, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

I didn't expect Shawn would act so shamelessly, so I was startled and didn't get rid of him soon enough.

I rubbed the wrist he had gripped just now, wondering how I'd explain everything to Rufus. He was probably burning with jealousy now.

He staggered off and ran away as fast as he could, like a puppy with its tail between its legs.

Rufus glanced at me coldly but didn't say anything. Instead, holding my hand, he walked forward, dragging me behind him.

I hurried to keep up with him and looked up at him embarrassedly. "So, when did you arrive?"

Rufus cast me a sidelong glance and smiled wryly. "How come I never knew that you had a childhood playmate who later became your destined mate? It turns out even the Moon Goddess was moved by your love."
