The Truth
Crystal's POV:
Rufus texted back with a question mark.
I was a little bit flushed with embarrassment.
I felt like I acted too hastily.
How shocked he must have been to read my message.
I hesitated for a while and didn't know how to explain.
Rufus would definitely ask me why I insisted on the layout and owners of the palaces back then.
There were too many things that I couldn't tell Rufus.
What if he questioned me? I regretted my recklessness and hesitated about whether I should call him
and explain myself or not.
But he didn't ask anything and promptly sent me what I wanted the next second.
Just then, Rufus called me.
I hesitated for a while before answering it.
A deep and pleasant voice came from the other end of the line.
His voice was steady as he said, "This is the best I can do for now.
If you need a more detailed version of the document, you'll have to file an application tomorrow."
I replied immediately, "It's okay.This also works.Thank you for answering me despite the time."
"It's not a big deal."
After that, Rufus was silent.
There was a moment of awkward stillness before I heard the sound of pages being turned on the other
end of the phone.
It seemed that he had not just woken up.
I hesitated for a while and asked dully, "Haven't you gone to bed yet?"
"I'm following up on the interrogation of the groom, and investigating the surveillance footage in every
corner of the palace."
The sound of Rufus suddenly traveled far, followed by the sound of glass colliding.
I assumed he was currently having a cup of coffee to keep himself awake.
I felt a little guilty and grateful.
Rufus could have asked others to deal with these things, but he didn't.
"Thank you so much.
I really don't know what to do without your help..."
It was true that force could eventually solve any problem, but if 1 acted recklessly and simply turned to
violence, I would only make things difficult for Rufus.
Rufus cleared his throat and responded in a raspy voice, "Not a big deal.I promised I would handle this,
didn't I? I'm the king, and I have to keep my promise.And I also don't want anything to happen to
Arron."
Suddenly, a servant's voice resounded on the line.It seemed that there was something wrong.
"Sorry.I have to hang up now.I'll call you later."
"Alright, go ahead with your work.Bye," I hastily answered, and suddenly the phone was silent.
After he hung up, I reluctantly put down the phone.
Then, I sat quietly by the window for a long time.
When I finally calmed down, I focused on the document Rufus just sent.
There were many pages in that document, covering not just the layout of the imperial palace, but also
the history of who lived in which palace.
I turned off the light in my room, leaving only a small night lamp on the desk so I could focus more.
As I sifted through the files on the computer, I could feel my heart sinking.
The palace I lived in now was located in a remote corner of the imperial palace, and only few people
had lived there before.
One could even call it a palace that nobody cared about.
Had I not requested Rufus to arrange a quiet palace for me, this place would still had been empty.
A good six or seven years ago, Richard took over this palace and invited Lucy, who had just moved into
the imperial palace back then, to live here.
Richard had probably used this hidden passage to secretly meet with Lucy.
That meant Lucy was also aware of the secret passage!
