Chapter 931 A Family

Crystal’s POV:

It was getting late, and I knew I couldn’t stay here any longer. On the other hand, my heart wanted me to stay because Beryl was here. novelbin

But Beryl didn’t recognize me. She didn’t even want me to touch her. She seemed to be afraid of the mask on my face and stuck out her lower lip every time she saw it.

I was at a loss. I couldn’t take off my mask in front of Rufus. If I had known it earlier, I would’ve chosen a less scary mask instead.

“Daddy, I’m hungry.” Frowning, Beryl tugged Rufus ‘ sleeve and rubbed her belly.

“I’ll ask someone to have some food prepared for you.”

After saying that, Rufus headed to the dining room, still holding Beryl in his arms. I stood there awkwardly, wondering if I should follow them. Rufus didn’t ask me to stay, so I couldn’t stay, but Beryl was here, so I couldn’t just leave either.

While I was weighing my options, I heard a muffled thunder. A few seconds later, it started pouring outside. Well, it seemed fate had made my decision for me. Smiling faintly, I hurried to catch up with the two.

In the dining room, Beryl sat obed*iently in a high chair and waited for the food. Now that she wasn’t hiding in Rufus’ embrace, I cautiously sat down next to her.

Beryl tilted her head to look at me with her big, doe-like eyes. She burst into tears after a few seconds.

Tears streaming down her chubby cheeks, she reached out to hug Rufus and sobbed, “I’m scared.”

Rufus scooped her up and held her comfortingly. To me, he said helplessly, “Your mask is scaring her.”

I didn’t know what to do about it. When I was picking out a mask, I wanted to come off as cold and ruthless, so I chose a black metal one. It looked kind of steampunk, which was indeed frightening for children.

“How about taking it off?” Rufus suggested, eyeing me coldly.

Caught between a rock and a hard place, I racked my brains for a solution. Finally, I muttered, “If I take it off, she’ll still be scared. My face isn’t a pretty sight.”

Rufus glanced at me and said nothing. He just lowered his head and wiped Beryl’s tears away with an expensive-looking handkerchief.

Soon, a servant arrived with some spaghetti. Beryl’s attention was instantly drawn away from my mask.

I breathed a sigh of relief and offered to put some food on Beryl’s plate. The little girl wasn’t fond of some certain veggies, so I picked out the carrots and onions from the noodles with a spoon.

Rufus was busy putting a bib on the little girl. His handsome side profile was slightly lowered, and his unprecedented patience made him look like a kind father.

My heart skipped a beat, and the long lost b*tterflies started fluttering in my stomach again.

Rufus must’ve sensed my intent gaze because he suddenly turned his head to look at me. I quickly lowered my head and cut the noodles in her plate into smaller pieces so that Beryl could eat them conveniently.

Now that she was eating, Beryl slowly let her guard down. She didn’t mind me sitting next to her anymore, but she still resisted my touch.

The little girl must’ve been starving because she wolfed down her food. Her cheeks bulged as she chewed. I couldn’t help but wipe her greasy mouth with a tissue, and then quickly withdrew my hand. Beryl didn’t have enough time to react. Rufus was so amused that he chuckled. His laughter was short and deep, like a small stone thrown into the pool, stirring up waves in my heart.

As soon as I looked up, the smile on Rufus’ face disappeared. He quickly raised a glassof water to take a sip, as though he was trying to hide his smile. However, the smile in his eyes betrayed his true emotions.

This guy seemed to be having fun.

I glared at him, feeling ashamed and annoyed. The temperature on my face rose crazily. Fortunately, I was wearing a mask, so Rufus didn’t find anything unusual.
