Chapter 1111 Sylvia
Crystal''s POV:
I went to the nearby pavilion with Lucy and her son. I had intended to leave in a short while, but Lucy warmly served me tea and exquisite desserts.
Lucy and Firman had made these desserts. Although they weren''t very presentable, they tasted good.
"You must have heard about my history, right?" Lucy casually asked while pouring tea into my cup.
I put down the te of dessert I was holding and lightly said, "I''ve only heard a little bit about it, but I don''t know any details.”
Lucy smiled and nonchntly said, "It''s actually good that you don''t know much. I''m not proud of it after all. When I was young, I was reckless and
met a bad man. Now I have already let go of the past. All I want is to see my child grow up safe and sound.” I stayed silent and listened to Lucy.
Firman was munching on the cream cake. Cake crumbs were smeared around his mouth. I took a tissue to wipe them off. He nced up and gave
me a sweet smile. Firman didn''t resemble Lucy at all. he looked more like his biological father, Kyle. His hair was also fair blonde and his irises were
silvery-grey with a tinge of blue. Fortunately, Lucy''s eyes were also light blue, so people hadn''t really notice the difference in their eye colors yet.
Perhaps they would figure it out once he grew up.
"When I was living in my pack, I was eager toe to the imperial pce. But when I really came here, I couldn''t wait to leave this ce. You see,
people always covet what they don''t have," Lucy said with a sigh.
I pretended to be ignorant of her past and simply echoed, "Just live in the moment."
Lucy curiously asked, "Are you going to stay in the imperial pce for an extended time? Are you not going to return to the border?"
"No, I just have some business here. I''ll be going back to the border soon." I gave a very concise statement and didn''tunch into a detailed
exnation of the reason I was staying at the imperial pce. Lucy was very sharp. The more I spoke, the more likely I would let slip.
Lucy sensed that I didn''t want to continue this subject. She didn''t push me and changed the topic. "I have heard that you also have a child. Maybe
your child can be friends with Firman in the future."
As she said this, she gently stroked Firman''s hair, and said in a helpless voice, "My poor baby is quite an introvert and doesn''t really have many
friends.” Firman swallowed the food he was chewing and interrupted in a soft voice, "Mom, I have a friend, Merle. He lives in the backyard of the
pce."
Lucy was torn between crying andughing. She rified, "Merle is a cat one of the servants has adopted. It oftenes to my ce to y with
Firman."
I felt sorry for the child, but even of my Arron and Firman became friends, it wouldn''t resclve this situation ence and for all.
I sighed. livon''t be at the pce for
long. Firman still needs to open up
and make some friends. There! re
ac ually many nice children in the
school who I''m sure will be Kappy to
make friends with Firman.’ Content

"I''m afraid that will take some time and effort,” Lucy replied worriedly.
Iforted her, saying, "Don''t stress
too much about it. As long as your
child doesntpick up bad habits, his
personality will be easy to mold, and
he wi make friends. While I''m stil a
teacher at the school, I will give”
special attention to Firman and try
teguide him to be more
familiar with the other kids and
hopefully make friends with them.”
Lucy smiled. "Thank you."
"You''re wee."
Contrary to my previous belief,

I was about to leave when Lucy packed some tea bags for me.
I didn''t want to refuse her kindness, so I just epted them, wanting to get out of here now.
As soon as I stepped out of the pavilion, Lucy shouted from behind me, "Sylvia."
For a moment, I froze.
