Chapter 884 Mature


    Crystal''s POV:


    After firing the nanny, I took Arron to the city hall for a meeting. Then I asked my subordinate to


    search for Beryl and keep an eye on her.


    Before the meeting, I ced a child''s chair next to me and made Arron sit on it. Several of the


    elders noticed his cute face during the meeting and often turned their heads to get another look at


    him. They really adored him.


    Arron was very obedient. He didn''t make any noise. His curious eyes were wide open as he listened


    to us with rapt attention the whole time. He was moreposed and focused than the adults.


    The meeting finally ended two hourster. I took out a cream cheese stick from my bag to reward


    him.


    "Thank you, Mom," he said with a smile as he took it from me elegantly.


    "You''re wee." I ruffled his hair and lifted him from the chair.


    At this time, one of my men came to us and curiously asked, "Alpha, do you want to hire a new


    nanny?"


    I hesitated for a moment and nced at Arron. He shot me a lovely smile. His front two teeth looked


    healthy and white.


    My heart softened and I refused, "No, I''m going take care of them myself."


    I was usually extremely busy with government affairs, leading to an excessive reliance on the


    nanny. The care of my children was neglected, and this circumstance allowed a viin into their


    lives.


    I was responsible for Beryl''s suffering. I didn''t know Perry''s true nature at that time and I shouldn''t


    have med her.


    When I found her back, I would make it up to her and make her favorite matcha-vored donuts


    with my own hands.


    After I made this decision, I noticed that Arron was chuckling. I couldn''t helpughing with him. I


    knew this was the right decision.


    However, I found it funny that Arron was just like Rufus. Arron had said nothing when Beryl was


    present. But seeing someone bully her, he was eager to defend her.


    Although they constantly bickered with each other and Beryl always seemed to pick on Arron, I


    knew they had a deep bond. Arron loved Beryl very much and she loved him just as much.


    As I studied Arron''s delicate face, I couldn''t stop my mind from turning to Rufus. Arron looked so


    much like him that I couldn''t help but be reminded of him every time I looked at our son.


    Time didn''t reduce my love for him. Over the years, I missed Rufus even more.


    I often saw some news about him on the Inte. He was living a good life and managing the entire


    empire in an orderly fashion. Perhaps leaving him was the right decision.


    Maybe I would read the news about his marriage several years down the line, but it was none of my


    business anymore.


    Noticing the drop in my mood, Arron gently tugged my hand and asked, "Mom, what''s wrong with


    you?"


    When I snapped back to the present, I lowered my head and met his eyes. Holding his finger, I said,


    "Nothing. I was just thinking about how I''ll apologize to Beryl. Today''s incident waspletely my


    fault."


    "I''m sure Beryl won''t be angry anymore," Arron replied, trying tofort me.

    "But she hasn''t returned yet." I was a little dispirited. I hadn''t received any news about Beryl from


    the people I had sent to look for her. Although the pack was safe now and the residents were kind,


    ensuring that Beryl wouldn''t get lost, I still wanted to find her and apologize to her instantly.


    "Mom, don''t worry. Beryl will be back soon!" Arron grasped my hand, trying to cheer me up.


    I nced out the window. It was almost dusk. If she didn''t get back soon, darkness would fall. I was


    worried. I touched Arron''s little head and asked, "Do you know where Beryl likes to go when she is


    angry?"
