Chapter 1235 Remembering
Crystal's POV:
After Rufus left the bathroom, I hysterically screamed inwardly. I was so embarrassed that my scalp tingled. I even wanted to dig a hole and hide in it.
As soon as I returned to my senses, everything came back to me, including all the stupid stuff I'd done with Rufus just now.
Even worse was the fact that I'd made the first move.
As I thought about this, I couldn't stop myself from banging my palm on my head several times. I felt deep regret. I must have been tempted by his charm. Why didn't I control my desire?
Rufus seemed to have accepted our relationship.
Help! How could matters have taken such a turn? It felt like I had gone back five years in time and Rufus and I were still in love.
Yana was laughing uncontrollably in my head. "You had sex with him. Now you have to take responsibility for it."
"What should I do, Yana? Rufus seems to have fallen in love with me again. I can tell from the look in his eyes." My mind was muddled and I didn't know what my next course of action should be. If the curse returned, we would be over.
"Relax. Maybe things are not that bad," Yana said as she stopped laughing and began to calmly analyze the situation. "Find an opportunity to check if the black thorn has emerged again on Rufus' back." "No, I have to leave him regardless of whether it emerges or not. Once the black thorn returns, Rufus will certainly die. I can't watch him die," I said in a pain-filled voice.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
"Then what should we do now? Rufus won't let you leave so easily, and you can't return to the border pack. And what about Beryl and Arron? Rufus must have definitely figured out by now that Arron is his son. You can't keep it from him anymore." Yana's mind was filled with worry, and her explanation shot down the possibility of my leaving.
Right now, the only path in front of me had been blocked. No matter what I chose to do, I couldn't succeed.
Rufus wouldn't let me and the kids leave him.
This was so annoying!
I scratched my ears and cheeks thoughtfully, but I couldn't come up with a solution.
"Don't be upset, babe. We can take this one day at a time and find a way to get out of here after a while," Yana said, comforting me.
"But what about Beryl and Arron?" I felt dispirited. If I wanted to leave successfully, I wouldn't be able to take my kids with me.
Yana was silent for a long time
before she said, "Maybe it's a good

thing for both kids to stay in the imperial palace. This place boasts the best educational resources, and the kids will receive superior knowledge. I also believe that Rufus will be an exceptional father. He will love his children as much as you do. Although it's an agonizing decision, we might not have another choice. If we want to overcome this stalemate, we will have to sacrifice something."
I listened to Yana quietly with mixed emotions.
"Sylvia, life is filled with unforeseen events. There are things you are destined to give up." Yana had used my former name. This was the first time she had addressed me as Sylvia in five years. Suddenly, I felt inf as if t had been dragged back to those days five years ago when I was trying to remove Rufus' curse. Yana had accompanied and encouraged me in the same way at that time as well.
Although so much time had passed, she remained the same, still accompanying me.
I laughed self-deprecatingly and said, "Yana, I see your point. Maybe it is time to make a decision."
Just then, a knock sounded on the door. It was Rufus.
"Crystal, are you done? Why are you inside for so long?"
This was followed by the sound of the lock turning. "I'm done. I'll be right out!" I panicked, wanting to go out, but I realized that I was naked. I didn't have a bath towel or clothes to cover my body.
In my rush to get out, I fell down because my feeble legs were unable to support me.
The next second, Rufus broke in.
