Chapter 930 Fate Is Amazing
Crystal''s POV:
Seeing the sincerity in Rufus'' eyes, I doubted he was lying. I grumbled to express my
dissatisfaction.
Rufus looked away. He seemed to be embarrassed, but then he put on a serious look and
exined, "It was the doctor who told me that. Only God knows if Beryl will ever get her memory
back. Maybe when the congestion in her brain ispletely cleared, she''ll go back to normal."
"I hope so." I sighed helplessly. I should''ve been thankful. It was already a miracle that my two kids
survived such a harrowing event. As long as they were both safe and sound, I didn''t dare to ask
God for more.
I said to Rufus softly, "Can I hold her?"
"Sure." Rufus didn''t hesitate this time and was about to give Beryl to me.
But Beryl suddenly woke up at this time. As soon as she saw me, she burst into tears.
My heart sank. My sweet girl really didn''t remember me at all.
Beryl cried so hard that her face turned as red as a tomato. She clung to Rufus'' neck tightly with her
chubby arms and refused to let me touch her.
"Sweetie, it''s Mommy. Can I please hug you?" I felt like I was going to cry, too. No mother would
want to encounter such a thing.
"Hey, take it easy. She might be afraid of people now because of the trauma." Rufus patted Beryl''s
back to calm her down whileforting me at the same time.
Dejected, I stood a few steps away from Rufus. I wanted to hold my baby girl, but I couldn''t. It was a
terrible feeling.
Rufus soon sessfully made Beryl stop crying. The little girl calmed down and burped in Rufus ''
arms, her eyes red and puffy from the crying. She looked so pitiful.
I felt sorry for her, but there was nothing I could do about it. Beryl couldn''t remember me and didn''t
want me anywhere near her. She even didn''t let me straighten the strawberry hair band on her
head. She made Rufus do it.
I sighed helplessly and felt at a total loss. I pulled out the candies from my pocket and pressed them
onto Rufus'' palm. "Give her these."
Rufus didn''t say anything. When he handed the candies to Beryl, thetter took it obediently.

This only made me feel worse. Howe Rufus won my daughter''s trust so easily?
Was it because they shared the same blood? But Beryl didn''t know that Rufus was her father, and
Rufus didn''t know that Beryl was his daughter.
I pursed my lips bitterly.
Beryl smiled as soon as she munched on a candy. Her lovely smile lifted my spirits, so I mustered
up the courage to try again. "Can I hold you now, sweetie?"
Rufus handed Beryl over to me without hesitation.
Unexpectedly, Beryl cupped Rufus'' cheeks with both hands and asked, "Daddy, you don''t want me
anymore?"
I was so shocked that my blood ran cold. My first thought was that Rufus had found out the truth
about his daughter.
But when I saw the embarrassed look on Rufus '' face, I calmed down. Beryl had lost her memory,
so it was normal for her to call the first man she met "Daddy".
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief and loosened my clenched fists.
Beryl kept calling Rufus daddy over and over again. Rufus seemed to like it, but I didn''t.
"Why does Beryl call you that?" I muttered unhappily.
"Maybe it''s because I saved her, so she relies on me now," Rufus answered as he unwrapped the
candies for Beryl.
I fell silent. Mixed feelings gued my heart when I saw the way they interacted. I had always
thought that Beryl and Arron wouldn''t be able to see their father for the rest of their lives. But the
truth was that fate was amazing. After a series of twists and turns, Beryl still ended up in her father''s
arms.
Fate always yed tricks like this. The more we wanted to avoid something, the more impossible it
was for us to run from it. For now, I could only take it one step at a time.
