The Lycan King's Fate Calling novel Chapter 1220

Rufus' POV:

I felt my face fall. I immediately yelled for the doctor and ordered him to give Crystal a full examination. I even had him do a CT scan on her.

In the end, all he could tell me was that Crystal's mind had been damaged due to the power strife she had gone through.

It wasn't just her memory that was affected. She also behaved clumsily, to the point that I almost had an IQ test administered to her.

Crystal now sat back on her bed, staring at the doctor like a curious little child as he fiddled with his medical instruments.

I felt sorry for her, but there was nothing I could do to help. Who would have thought that the sharp, cunning woman I knew would be reduced to this?

But even if she turned into an idiot, she was still adorable.

I shook my head as soon as the thought popped in my mind. I had been too immersed in my dreams lately. Maybe I was going crazy, too.

"Crystal, would you like some iced coconut tea? It's your favorite drink." I took the glass from a nearby servant and held it up to her.

Crystal said nothing, but she gave me a cautious nod.

I couldn't help but reach out to pat her head. To my horror, she recoiled from my touch and scampered to the far corner of the bed, eyeing me warily.

"Come, now. You don't have to be scared." I pulled my hand back and focused on the drink instead, picking up a white straw from the tray and putting it in the glass.

But Crystal made no move to take the drink. Instead, she craned her neck to take stock of everything that was on the tray, then said in a haughty manner, "I want the pink straw. And please put a lemon wedge on the glass."

"Of course," I murmured, amused. I did as she asked, replacing the white straw with the pink one, and putting a lemon wedge on the edge of the glass.
