Crystal's POV:

Rufus' soft words and the fleeting caress on my head transported me back to the old days when we were still together.

For a moment, I thought the Rufus who loved me with all his heart, was back. But when our eyes met, his cold and arrogant demeanor brought me back to reality.

"The imperial palace under my rule will never allow such a thing to happen. I will take full responsibility for it," Rufus pledged with utmost seriousness.

"Okay." I nodded, feeling both disappointed and moved.

For a moment it seemed as if he still love me and could read my mind; he seemed to comprehend what I was feeling. How very disappointing that it was just an illusion.

On the other hand, the fact that he wasn't going to treat Arron's disappearance lightly moved me. He was going to deal with this incident with topmost priority.
