Rufus' POV:

After sending Crystal back to her new residence, I went to my mother with Beryl who was sleeping in my arms.

At this time, my subordinate came to me and informed me in a whisper. "Flora seemed to have followed our car to Crystal's new residence."

Hearing this, I stopped and said lightly, "Let her be. As long as she doesn't cause any trouble."

My subordinate nodded. "Got it."

As soon as I stepped into the hall, my mother came out to welcome me. Based on her expression, she must have gotten some information from others since she didn't show any panic. Instead, she quickly came towards me and took Beryl in her arms, pretending to be very grateful that I had found her back. She even pretended to be angry as she cursed, "Didn't expect someone would dare take Beryl away from my room! Who is the culprit? We must severely punish him!"

Her acting was so poor but I didn't even bother to expose her lie. "It was Crystal."
