Crystal's POV:
Half of Lucy's body lay in the bathtub. She moved faintly and was about to die.
As I observed the situation numbly, I inwardly screamed that I would kill her. Just then, a vision of my son's cold body flashed in front of my eyes again. I couldn't help shuddering violently. My teeth chattered and I almost went insane.
At this moment, the bathroom door was kicked open. Someone grabbed me around my middle and pulled me away. The person then pull Lucy out of the water and she fell to the ground as she gasped for breath.
I mechanically turned my head and saw that it was Rufus. He was watching me anxiously. He was saying something, but I couldn't make out the words.
My ears were buzzing, and the sound was getting increasingly louder. Like a bomb, the noise suddenly exploded.
The buzzing sound gradually cleared after that, and I heard Rufus speaking close to my ear.
"Crystal, wake up!" He rubbed my arms worriedly, as if trying to warm me up.
I wiggled my fingers and gradually came back to my senses. The numbness in my heart was also slowly fading away.
"Rufus," I called his name softly, my voice gruff. I choked with sobs.
At this moment, I couldn't hold on any longer. I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. I was terrified
of losing my son. As I thought about how his life was in danger, I wanted to charge at Lucy and kill her right now.
"Crystal, calm down and listen to me," Rufus said, wrapping his arms around me.
"Let me go! I'm going to kill her! It's her! She took Arron away!" My eyes turned red, and my tears dripped down onto the back of Rufus' hands.
Rufus remained quiet and simply held my head against his shoulder to silently comfort me.
