Crystal's POV:

It was now obvious that the one behind this was the person who provoked the groom.

I rushed forward and questioned the man kneeling on the ground, "Who ordered you to take Arron away?"

The groom's face was stiff. His tanned face was severely grazed and bleeding because of Rufus' kick. He tightened his lips and pretended not to hear my question. Irritated, I paced around the room frantically. I didn't know how to get the truth out of him.

To calm me down, Rufus patted my shoulder with his hand. Then, he looked at the groom with disdain and questioned, "Are you going to continue to be stubborn?" The groom raised his head and eyes at Rufus. His face twitched ferociously. He blinked, but still remained silent.

"Your Majesty, I have nothing to say."

Rufus flew into a rage. He pointed at the groom and shouted, "Let's see whether you can keep your mouth shut when you're in prison!"

After that, he threw another kick at the groom. The man was hurled to the ground and rolled for a short distance before coming to a stop. Stunned, I stared at the irate Rufus in disbelief.
