Chapter 1141 Pray
Crystal''s POV:
"Okay." I struggled toe up with a satisfactory response to Rufus. This was the best and only option left.
Again, Rufus stroked my hair tenderly and murmured, "Don''t think too much. Go back and have a rest. Wait for my news."
I nodded mechanically. My mind was a mess now, so I agreed and went back to my ce.
Locking around at the empty pce, I felt a pang of agitation. Iy on the bed numbly and gazed out the window at the moonlight. I didn''t know what
Arron was going through now.
I couldn''t rest easy for more than a few seconds thinking that Arron could be in an unfamiliar ce and in danger.
Last night went off without a hitch. Why would anyone want to hurt a good boy like Arron? My eyes became heavier, and I could feel my tears about
to well up.
While Iy in bed, thinking about how much energy I''d need to go looking for Arron tomorrow, I finally sumbed to closing my eyes.
But secondster, I opened them again and took a few deep breaths.
Cnce I closed my eyes, all I could see was blood everywhere. The worst possible oue kept running through my mind.
I would see Arron covered in blood.
So I got up in a hurry and knelt down in front of the window, praying to the Moon Goddess.
"Great Moon Goddess, please protect Arron and help
me find him." I lowered my head and prayed devoutly.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.
It was rare for me to pray to the Moon Goddess so fervently. If I prayed to her, it meant something significant had happened to me
I didn''t know if it was my illusion. For some reason, whenever I finished praying, everything felt lighter. My only option now was to ce my hope to
the Moon Goddess.
Yana, too, was filled with worry. She
attempted tturge me to sleep,
fearing that 1 couldn''t hold on much
longer. However, at the same time,
she was also worried that if I dozed
off we''d miss something important
regarding Arron.

After praying for a while, I calmed down a lot andforted Yana, "I can''t fall asleep now. So I''ve decided to wait for Rufus’ news. Don''t worry. I can
hold on."
After that, I sat back on the bed and started thinking about what had happened.
"Arron is just a kid. Who do you think might be targeting him here?" I murmured.
After a long silence, Yana said, "Crystal, every n is motivated by some sort of gain and interests. Perhaps Arron''s existence has affected the
interests of others."

I had to think hard before I remembered everyone who might have a grudge against me, down to the maid I had knocked over by ident and not
apologized to.
However, there was still a lingering:
disappointment in my heart. I a
had a small issue with those people.
There was no need for them, 0 take
such a big risk against Arron.
Clearly, everything that happened was carefully nned.
Such a rigorous n required great patience. And this person must be very familiar with me,
The image of Ad''s face kept popping into my head. Could it be her?
Because of Rufus, she might be the only one who was most hostile to me. But did she really have the ability to n all this?
