Laura's POV:

Crystal's call for help came as no surprise to me. On the day Crystal came back to the capital city, I had thought this might happen, but I didn't expect things to turn out so troublesome.

Even more surprisingly, Rufus' sensitivity caught me off guard. He was readily swayed by Crystal's charms even though he had lost his memories.

Rufus didn't appear eager to engage in conversation. With just a few words, he put an end to our dialogue, "Yes, it's time to lose this case. Mother, don't worry about it. I won't mention it again." Since he cut off
