Chapter 1056
Fated to the Cursed Lycan Prince by Dark Knight
Chapter 1056 Wine And Friends
Crystal’s POV:
In the following two days since Rufus had left the imperial pce, nothing significant had happened. As
for me, I only needed to go to the kindergarten in the morning. My son and I would then spend the rest
of the day in our own pce, or go and pay Laura a visit.
Today, it snowed. Arron and I decided not to go out. Instead, we sat in front of the firece and ate
roasted sweet potatoes.
“This is yummy. I’m sure Beryl will like it.” Arron blew at his sweet potato.
“Mommy will send some to your sister and grandmotherter,” I said as I took a big bite of my own
sweet potato, and then put another piece into my son’s te.
Just then, a knock came at the door.
I put the food down and put on my mask before going to open the door. Flora stood at my doorstep,
along with the rest of the bunch. They each held big grocery bags.
“What are you doing here?” I asked, puzzled by their sudden visit.
“The parade is over. We are leaving soon.” Flora put her bags down and took my hands. She rubbed
them for a while before pulling me into a tight hug.
“You’re leaving? Why don’t you stay for a few more days?” I didn’t want them to leave this soon. I had
yet to spend some quality time with Flora and the others.
“There’re a lot of things back at the pack waiting for us to deal with,” Warren said. “I’m afraid we can’t
stay any longer.”
“What about you two? Are you also leaving?” I looked at Joanna and Harry.
Harry nodded with a resigned expression. He leaned against Joanna’s shoulder and said, “Yes. My
father ordered me to be home by tomorrow, or he will freeze all my assets.”
“I see. In that case, you should go.”
Harry hadn’t been with his pack in a long time. Martin had a short temper, so he should be running out
of patience by now.
“And Joanna is going with you?” I asked again.

Harry became sullen. “No, she’s noting with me.” With that, he turned away from her and strode
inside. He plopped on the sofa in a sulk.
Joanna sighed and shrugged her shoulders helplessly. “I’lle to you as soon as I finish dealing with
the affairs back in my pack.”
“I know,” Harry muttered under his breath. “I’m not mad or anything. I understand that you have your
own matters to take care of, and I respect that.”
Joanna and I exchanged a look, and I know that we both found Harry’s little tantrum funny.
“I know, why don’t we hold a farewell party?” I suggested.
Rufus wasn’t around, so no one was going to stop us from doing it.
“Way ahead of you!” Flora chirped. She then produced two bottles of red wine from one of the bags.
She shed me a devilish grin. “We also brought a ton of food. Let’s get hammered tonight!” Harry let
out a whoop, and then proceeded to take out some decorations and presents from the other bags. He
had even prepared a gift for my daughter even though she wasn’t here. He diligently handed them out
one by one.
We spent a short while decorating the living room and filling the table with wine and food.
Outside the window, the snow kept falling. We sat around the firece, eating snacks and drinking
wine, and reminiscing about funny times in the past. Arron and Lucas stayed, and while they couldn’t
understand most of the things the adults talked about, they listened carefully and also giggled along
when weughed.
We drank like we were practically begging for a hangover. Despite this, Flora and the others woke up
early the next day and prepare to head out of the imperial capital. Their respective cars were already
waiting to chauffeur them away. Harry, Flora, and Warren left together, as their packs were located
adjacent to one another. Joanna, on the other hand, left by herself.
Just as they were about to leave, an upset Harry kept whining and pestering Joanna, saying that he
didn’t want to go. The couple huddled to the side for a brief conversation. When they broke apart, Harry
was strangely in high spirits. I was curious about what Joanna had told him then.
And I only found out about it muchter. It turned out that she had epted Harry’s proposal!
I saw my friends off, and then slowly trudged my way back to the pce, where I met Laura at the
pce door. She immediately rushed to me and grabbed my hand, her face wrought with worry.
“Something bad happened. Rufus has gone missing. We lost contact with him.”
