The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1121

Crystal's POV:

After we finished discussing Lucy, I asked Laura about Beryl. I left without saying goodbye to Beryl today, so I was worried that she would be furious.

At the mention of Beryl, Laura's voice became much more relaxed. "Beryl did well today. She will spend the night at Rufus' place. And he will drop her off at school tomorrow."

Relieved to know that my daughter was all right, I was about to bid goodbye to Laura. As I was about to end the conversation, Laura hesitantly said, "Well... There is one more thing I wanted to discuss with you."

"What is it?" I was baffled. Laura rarely beat around the bush like this.

"Crystal, have you ever considered revealing Beryl's and Arron's true identities and letting them stay in the imperial palace?" Laura asked tentatively in a soft voice.

My heart sank and my breath became shallow when I heard this. Just as I was about to refuse, Laura hurriedly added, "Arron is exceptionally talented and the lycan power from both his parents runs in his veins. He is the perfect candidate for the heir to the crown. Beryl has also adapted well to palace life. And she has an inherent affection for Rufus. The educational facilities in the imperial capital are superior to those of the border pack. Don't you think this would be beneficial to the children?"

Although Laura's explanation was reasonable, it didn't move me and even made me want to oppose her.

Without a second's hesitation, I bluntly refused, saying, "I won't allow my children to grow up with a stepmother. And I certainly won't let them become another Richard."

"Crystal, you shouldn't think in that direction..." Laura paused for a moment, battling with hesitation. She sighed but was still reluctant to give up.

"You can't always continue like this. All children need their father. Arron and Beryl are eager for their father's love, and his presence is favorable to their development."

"But children also need their mother," I immediately retorted and disconnected the call.
