Crystal's POV:
As I looked at Beryl's innocent but mischievous eyes, I knew that she had hoodwinked Laura.
My little girl had probably noticed something off with Laura. She only pretended to cooperate and see what Laura was up to.
This was how Beryl operated at home too. She would often pretend to be obedient so she could secretly tag along with me. As soon as I left, she would secretly follow me.
She was certainly clingy.
She had done the same thing this time as well. She knew that I was coming to the capital city, but pretended to be ignorant. Afterward, she sneaked into the capital city with Arron.
I had thought that this part of her nature would be subdued after losing her memory, but she was still very smart and impish.
I bent over to ruffle her disheveled hair and helplessly said, "We have some important work. If you're willing to be a good girl, we will take you along with us."
"Of course, I will. But first, you have to tell me what your important work is," she demanded, watching me with her big eyes.
I was at a loss for words, but did my best to explain our plan honestly. "I'm going to leave the capital city and return to the border pack."
Beryl tilted her head to one side and asked, "Is it far away?"
"Yes, it's pretty far away."
"Then I won't come with you. I don't want to leave
