Crystal's POV:

Laura's guess made me pause. The day when Beryl was kidnapped, everything was so chaotic; perhaps I remembered it incorrectly.

If Beryl wasn't wounded that day, then it made sense if it was my blood that had triggered the reaction of Noreen's remains.

But this conjecture made me even more scared. Cold sweat broke out on my forehead.

"I'm Noreen's only target. She's always been good at bewitching people. Back then, she was the one who had Alina wrapped around her finger. Step by step, she lured Alina into her trap, until she finally killed Leonard. That was a tragedy that no one saw coming." The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. My hands started to tremble, and the gruesome scene that was Leonard's death flashed before my eyes.

I buried my face in my hands and said in a low voice, "What if I've also fallen into Noreen's trap? What if Beryl's abnormality is just an illusion? She could be trying to drive me insane. I might even kill my own daughter-"

"That's not going to happen." Before I could spiral out of control, Rufus interrupted me and pulled me into his arms, stroking my back comfortingly. "Baby, you're fine. Don't scare yourself. Alina sold her soul to the devil for her own selfish ambitions. She got what she deserved, But you're different. You love Beryl. There's no doubt about it. Noreen's just doing this to try to provoke you. Don't worry. We'll find a way to expel Noreen's soul from Beryl's body."
