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.

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.
