    Chapter 1090 Logical Analysis


    Crystal’s POV:


    “If I hadn’te, you’d probably run out of tears.” Laura poked my forehead with her finger in rebuke. I


    knew she expected me to handle matters better than this.


    I hurriedly wiped my tears away and ducked my head in embarrassment.


    “Aren’t you usually tough and unfazed by anything?” Laura asked, though I could hear a hint of


    sympathy in her tone. “Why did you turn into a coward and ran away after some scolding from Rufus?


    You are on the right side. If anyone had to run away, it most definitely isn’t you.”


    Laura scoffed before plopping down beside me. She nced sideways at me, her eyes twinkling with


    amusement. “Just look at your face. Your eyes are all swollen. Tell me, are you feeling aggrieved?” “It’s


    not that. I just find it hard to ept,” I muttered under my breath. Somehow, Laura’s presence eased


    my sorrow.


    “I understand,” she said, patting my hand in earnest. “Don’t worry. That Ad girl won’t be


    staying for long. I saw through her tricks right away.”


    I perked up in surprise. “You think Ad is scheming something?”


    “Of course! I married a king, and I surely have been more b*tches than you can ever imagine during


    those years.” Laura proudly raised her chin.


    I found her show of bravado cute. “It’s true that Ad suddenly appeared from out of nowhere.”


    “Oh, I don’t think it’s all that sudden,” Laura said with a sarcastic smirk. “It was an orchestrated move.”


    Then she turned to look at me, and her face grew serious. “Since it was you who saved Rufus, then


    that means that Ad is lying. Although, we have no way of knowing her reasons at the moment. We


    need to at least find a way to make her slip up and expose herself.”


    I was moved by Laura’s unconditional trust in me. My thoughts wandered back to Rufus. He used to


    believe in me without reservation, too, no matter what happened.


    I leaned over and gave Laura a tight hug. “Thank you, Laura.”


    She seemed taken aback by this, but I soon felt her stroking my back. “Don’t think too much about


    Rufus for now. That silly idiot must be wallowing in confusion as we speak. After all, it’s no small matter


    to find one’s mate, supposedly under the Moon Goddess’ guidance.”


    “I know. Our priority right now is to find out Ad’s motive for doing this.”


    After listening to Laura’s logical analysis of the situation, my head finally started to clear. I ticked off the


    details that didn’t add up. Firstly, I was the one who had saved Rufus, so Ad was clearly lying.


    More than that, there was no doubt in my mind that their so-called mate bond was fabricated in one


    way or another. Perhaps f0rced, even. I was still here, and I was still Rufus’ mate. There was no way


    that Moon Goddess would have guided him to a second mate while I was still around.


    As if reading my thoughts, Laura voiced them out with a frown. “The one thing I don’t understand is why


    Rufus is so convinced that Ad is his mate. Shouldn’t he have known by her scent that she isn’t who


    she ims to be?”


    I mulled this over in my head until I recalled reading about a very little-known potion in a book of


    witchcraft that my mother had passed down to me. The potion was said to make someone mistake a


    different person as their mate. However, the potion’s effects onlysted for a month.


    Did Ad have something to do with the ck witches?

    I ryed my suspicions to Laura, who pondered it as well. “I am in charge of the wedding


    arrangements. If I stall it for over a month, Ad is bound to expose herself, right?” “That’s a good


    idea,” I said after some consideration. “The potion only works on its victim once, after which they


    develop an immunity to the substance. It won’t work on the same victim for a second time.” “Now then,


    the only thing I’m worried about is if Rufus somehow falls in love with Ad during that time,” Laura


    pointed out.


    I immediately dismissed the possibility. I wasn’t entirely sure, but I simply refused to believe that Rufus


    would fall in love with another she-wolf.


    Laura’s tone was careful when she spoke next. “The problem is that I’ve noticed that Ad is trying to


    imitate the way you were five years ago.”
