Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 1014 Sleeping Powder
Laura’s POV:
After finishing the ssof milk, Beryly down and closed her eyes obediently. I leaned forward to kiss
her forehead and then tucked her in. She drifted off after a few minutes.
I stroked Beryl’s head sorrowfully since I didn’t know when we would meet again.
Crystal had informed me that Rufus was already suspicious of her, so he would certainly monitor her
for some time. He might even put all hermunications under surveince.
For this reason, I couldn’t contact her anymore. I could only wait till Rufus’ doubts died down and he
gave up his investigation of her.
I didn’t know how long that would take. Once Rufus became suspicious, it would be difficult for him to
let the matter go unless Crystal performed another meritorious deed.
I believed that I wouldn’t be able to see my grandchildren for a long time now. After some
consideration, I took out my phone and clicked a few photos of Beryl. I chose one of them and set it as
my phone’s wallpaper. Beryl was quiet and docile while sleeping. Her long eyshes were gorgeous.
Although the cut of her face was simr to Crystal’s, the shape of her eyebrows and mouth was exactly
like Rufus’. Rufus hadn’t noticed this and the thought hadn’t crossed his mind yet, perhaps because
she was still a kid.
At this moment, a gentle knock sounded at the door. I guessed it was Crystal.
I got to my feet and opened the door. Sure enough, Crystal stood at the threshold. She was still
wearing a mask and her hair was neatly tucked under a baseball cap. Her gaze darted around furtively,
as if she was afraid someone would follow her.
Feeling amused, I pulled her in. “Don’t worry. This is the safest ce in the imperial pce. Rufus is
respectful and won’t spy on his own mother.”
Crystal took off her cap and mask and smiled sheepishly. “Just in case.”
Shaking my head, I led her into the room and said, “Beryl is asleep.”
“Really? Didn’t she cry for Rufus?” Crystal’s eyes flew to me in surprise.
“No. I led her to believe that she will see her daddy tomorrow, so she didn’t create much of a fuss.” I
sighed. “I see.” Crystal’s face fell.
No mother wanted to see their child be disappointed or unhappy.
I couldn’t stand the sad expression on her face andforted her, “Don’t overthink it. The children will
see their father again in the future. For now, you need to only focus on avoiding unnecessary trouble.”
Crystal nodded and pasted a smile on her face as she prepared to see Beryl.
I led her to the bedroom and said, “I’ve given Beryl some sleeping powder. Don’t worry. It’s not harmful
to her. It will only knock her out for a while.”
When Crystal heard this, she sighed heavily. “I’m afraid that won’t work on Beryl.”
“Why?” I asked curiously.N?velDrama.Org: text ? owner.
The powder I gave her had been specially developed and then tested on adults several times. All the
experiments were sessful, so it would definitely work on kids.
“Because of Beryl’s special constitution, most medicines don’t work on her,” Crystal replied.
I was nonplussed for a moment, before the thought of the special constitution of the ck witch entered
my mind.
“But I just left Beryl sleeping soundly a few moments ago.” As I said this, Crystal’s expression shifted
and she stared at something behind me.
I was stunned. I whirled around and spotted Beryl standing behind us, watching us curiously.
“Beryl? You are awake?” I was shocked. I thought my n was very sessful, but I hadn’t expected
that Beryl would pretend to fall asleep.
“I slept for three minutes but had to go to the bathroom now. I drank too much milk and felt too full.”
Beryl touched her belly with a pout.
Feeling defeated, I crouched down and rubbed her belly gently. “Are you feeling very ufortable?”
Beryl shook her head, “No, I’m not.” Then she shifted her attention to Crystal. “What are you doing?
Why are you talking so mysteriously? Is there something fun? Can Ie with you?”
