Crystal's POV:
When I opened the door and saw that it was Flora, I heaved a sigh of relief. I pulled her inside and promptly took off my mask.
"What're you doing here?"
Flora was still wearing a gown, as if she had rushed straight here from the ball. Slal*th the FindNøvel. It website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Did something happen between you and Rufus just now? People have been saying that you two were in the same room for a long time..." Flora held my hands, her eyes darting around nervously. I had a bad feeling about this. "What's going on?"
Flora immediately fished out her phone from her handbag and showed me a photo. "Look, someone took a photo of you running out of Rufus' lounge."
Hearing this, my heart leaped to my throat. I took Flora's phone to get a better look at the photo. Luckily, it didn't capture my face, which was blocked by Arron in my arms.
But it would've been easy to recognize me by my side profile. Years ago, I often posted photos on social media. It would be bad if someone recognized me. After all, in the eyes of the public, Sylvia had already been executed.
"Don't worry. As soon as we found out about it, Warren immediately gave the order to have the photos taken down. Hopefully, it won't cause too big of an impact," Flora comforted me and patted the back of my hand.
I closed my eyes and breathed a sigh of relief. We both sank into the sofa tiredly and I told her about my plan. "I'm leaving the capital in three days."
"Is Beryl going with you? Doesn't she think that Rufus is her father?" Flora asked with a frown.
"If Beryl still doesn't regain her memories by then, I'll have to take her away by force." I sighed helplessly.
Flora sighed. "Life can be really cruel sometimes. If only it wasn't Rufus who saved Beryl."
"Well, now that things have come to this, I have to accept it. If it wasn't Rufus who saved her, I might not have found Beryl so easily."
After all, it was simple cause and effect. Since things turned out like this, I had no choice but to go with the flow.
"Can I visit you in the border pack?" Pouting, Flora threw her arms around me tightly.
"Of course, but you'll have to do it discreetly. I'm sure Rufus will send his people to the border pack to keep an eye on me. We'd better be careful."
I rubbed my aching temples. My mind was in a mess. Today, I had crossed a line with Rufus.
Although he wouldn't depose my status as Alpha, he might secretly investigate me. All things considered, it would be better for me to keep a low profile for the time being.
Fortunately, over the past five years, I had been very careful. Even if Rufus looked into my background, I doubted anything too suspicious would resurface. But if I cultivated my relationship with my old friends now, it would be another story.
I knew what kind of person Rufus was. He would definitely target Flora and the others to get to me if he knew their relationship with me.

Flora's eyes flashed mischievously.
"Don't worry. When I visit, I'll put on a disguise. No one will be able to m recognize me not even you! The border's rich in precious stones. I'll disguise myself as a merchant who's there on business. I can easily stay for a week or two!" The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!

I swatted her arm playfully. "Are you sure that Warren will let you go there for two whole weeks? I think he'll storm the border and take you back on the first day you arrive." Warren was now a dutiful husband. Despite being busy with political affairs, he basically followed Flora everywhere. If Flora really went to the border pack for weeks, Warren would go crazy.

Flora was very confident. "No, he
won't. He'll listen to me and do
whatever I say." She casually waved e her hand and made up her mind that
she'd visit me at the border the following month. And then she added. that Warren had no say in the matter. The content is on bignovels.com! Read the latest chapter there!
I smiled at her helplessly. While the thought of seeing Flora at the border was
exciting, I had a gut feeling it would never happen. Warren would never let her
go.
While we were chatting, Warren arrived. He told us that he had finished dealing with the photos and that he had come to pick Flora up.
