The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 934

Crystal's POV:

Sure enough, Laura pretended to feel helpless and said, "Beryl doesn't remember her mother right now, so it's best to keep her here until she gets better. Otherwise, she will be scared."

Quickly, I butt in and said, "I'm afraid King Rufus is too busy to take care of my daughter."

If Beryl did stay here with him, I would be expected to make frequent visits. And knowing how sharp Rufus was, he would soon find out about the truth of our past if I made even the smallest mistake.

"You don't need to worry about that. I will help take care of her. There haven't been any children here in a long time. It's strange, but I somehow feel a connection with this kid. So please just agree to leave her here with me, okay?" Laura looked at Beryl with a gentle smile.

It had been five years and Laura had now finally seen her grandchild in person. Naturally, she was filled with joy and affection.

Ethan's death had been devastating for Laura. If Beryl could make her feel better, that would make me happy too.

I just hoped that Beryl could warm up to me soon so that I could take her back to the border pack as soon as possible. Otherwise, things might spiral out of my control.

After giving it some thought, I agreed to leave

Beryl here until her memory returned.

"But Beryl seems to be hostile to all strangers except the King," I pointed out. Realizing this truth, my face grimaced into a frown.

Laura was a little surprised, but she reached out a hand anyhow and gently patted Beryl's tiny head. "Beryl, I'm your Grandma. Don't be afraid, okay?"

The little girl didn't answer and just stared at Laura with her big, round eyes. She was visibly nervous, as seen by the way she was holding her breath.

I also felt nervous, worried that Beryl would cry the next second.

Beryl shrank her head, and her messy pony tail came loose and the strawberry hair band on her head fell.
