Chapter 1120
Chapter 1120 Part Of The Royal Family
Crystal''s POV:
I said goodbye to Lucy and made my way back to my residence.
Arron was busy drawing when I arrived, but the moment he saw me, he got up and greeted me
enthusiastically.I put down the things I[ was holding and held him in my arms.
"What do you want for ?inner, sweetie?"
After thinking for a while, Arron responded in a soft voice, "ck truffle pasta and tomato soup."
"Okay, then.Mommy wilì cook it for you." I rubbed hs head, kissed him on the cheek, and headed into
the kitchen.
The dinner was great and my son ate a l?t.
After I cleaned up, I yed with Arron and his building blocks.
That was when the phone rang.It was Laura.
When I picked up, the first thing she asked about how things were going today.
She never took a liking on Ad, and so whenever she heard that Ad met with Rufus, her
immediate reaction was to disturb them.
And sometimes she would also make me ?o ?t instead and tell her everythingter.
The whole debacle amused me to no end, and so I decided to tell Laura everything that had transpired
at Rufus'' ce.
After that, I asked her about Lucy, Laura seemed taken aback.
"You met with Lucy?" she asked.
"Yes," I answered carefully.
"She helped me out today.I don''t think she recognized me though.
In fact, I must say her way of doing thíngs is already so different from before."I paused and thought for
a while.
"She actually looked a lot gentler.Way less arrogant than she was before."
"How can she still be arrogant?" Laura asked, sounding annoyed.
"Richard already fell from grace.If she doesn''t change her ways and lead a more low-profile life with her
ch?ld, ? really don''t think they''d have a ce to stay in this imperial pce.Everyone, even her father,
had abandoned her." Laura sounded exasperated.
Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.
But I still felt a little uneasy.
"I don''t know...Her sudden appearance still feels so strange.In the past few years, she''s been very
careful and rarely social with anyone.What made her show up today? Whatpelled her to offer to
help me out? She doesn''t know me, Laura.She might''ve wanted to get acquainted with me for Firman''s
sake, b?t..."
There was silence on Laura''s end.
After a few moments, she spoke again.
"You know what? It was indeed a bit strange. I’ll have more people to keep an eye on Lucy.Just in
case."
"Lucy''s ch?ld, Firman..."
I hesitated, not knowing how Laura was go?ng to react.
Firman was pitiable.
If there was no friction between his parents, he might have a life way better than what he currently had.
"He isn''t Richard''s ch?ld.Ethan and I had him tested when he was bom.
''We wanted to do something, but you tampered with Rufus'' memory so he only remembered Firman to
be his true nephew.We wouldn''t know how to exin things to h?m if we sent the boy away.And
besides, the pce hasn''t had a child in so many years.I became soft-hearted, and so I let h?m stay."
I didn''t expect Laura to tell me the truth that directly.
Without any hesitation, I said, "Firman is a poor child.Richard killed his biological father, Kyle.But no
matter what happened, the boy has nothing to do with anything."
"That makes sense.The kid is cute and incredibly polite.Whenever he sees me, he greets me so
sweetly.I think as long as Lucy doesn''t do anything reckless anymore, Firman will still be brought up as
Richard''s son.After all, it''s already been announced that he is part of the royal family.We can''t really tell
the public now that Richard''s wife cheated on h?m and gave b?rth to a bastard son, can we???"
Laura sighed.Her tone dropped and her voice became serious, prating.
"But if Lucy decides to y any kind of trick ever again, I won''t hesitate to act." I felt helpless.
Laura was a woman of her word.
One reckless move from Lucy and Laura will be onto her like a wolf would stalk and kill its prey.
I just hoped that Lucy would keep her head level.
Because if she would not, poor Finmman would be forced to live in shame for the rest of his liíe.
