Sylvia’s POV:

I noticed that there was something wrong with Maya’s expression, so I looked at her and asked, “What’s wrong?” NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Maya let out a sigh. “Ever since you left the imperial palace, Prince Rufus hasn’t slept a wink, nor has he had a good meal either. But as soon as he found out about your whereabouts, he rushed there overnight. You can just imagine the pain he went through while you were away.”

My heart ached when I heard what she said. I pictured Rufus’ weary expression on the way back as he leaned against his seat. He was probably both mad and disappointed in me.

I looked down and gripped the blanket as I murmured, “I know I did something wrong this time, but…”

I almost wanted to tell Maya my unspeakable secret, but my subconscious held me back. If I were to reveal the secret about the curse on Rufus, things would get even more complicated. Ethan and Laura might even get involved.

In the end, I heaved a sigh. “I’ll apologize to Rufus when he comes back.”

“Miss Todd, that’s not what Prince Rufus wants. Don’t you understand? Since you’re his mate, you should be honest with him. He loves you. Your escape from the imperial palace is no less than betraying his love and your mate bond. I think instead of an apology, he needs you to reciprocate the same love he’s giving you.”

“I understand that, Maya. It’s just too complicated. I can’t talk about it right now,” I replied, my voice a little hoarse. I felt powerless, but I still had a secret to hide, and I had no choice but to bear the pressure and the misunderstanding that came along with it.

“Miss Todd,” Maya said as she sat on the edge of my bed. “Can you tell me why you suddenly ran away from the imperial palace? I always believed you had a reason that you didn’t want to tell anyone, or maybe you just couldn’t. But either way, I don’t think you meant to betray Prince Rufus.”

Seeing Maya’s sincere expression, I felt a lump form in my throat. At that point, I just wanted to tell her everything.

But I knew the consequences would be dire if I did that. When I stayed silent, Maya sighed and gave me a sad look. “Do you really not love Prince Rufus anymore?”

I subconsciously wanted to tell her that I loved Rufus with all my heart, but I couldn’t. I would have to leave the imperial palace sooner or later if I couldn’t get rid of the curse on his back. I would have to make him forget about me before I left.

The real question was, what should I do about the people around him?

Back then, Edwin was the only one who knew about what happened between Leonard and my mother, so it was easier to hide the truth.

But almost everyone already knew about my relationship with Rufus. It was basically general knowledge to them. They even thought we would get married soon.

If Rufus were to lose his memories, the people around him would still mention me. That was why I’d better just let everyone misunderstand that I didn’t love him anymore. In that case, even if I were to leave, no one would mention me in front of Rufus, and it would be better that way.

If everyone believed that I had betrayed Rufus and then he just magically lost his memory, no one would be stupid enough to bring me up in front of Rufus again and get themselves in trouble, i

“It’s a long story, Maya,” I said, looking at her serious expression.

“Do you still love Prince Rufus, Miss Todd? You ran away with Mr. Joshua this time. Did you really fall in love with him?” She asked once again. I nervously bit my lip. Ever since Rufus sent her to take care of me, I had never seen her so serious.

At that point, I was having mixed feelings again. I really wanted to tell her that I loved Rufus so much, but I couldn’t, and I couldn’t lie either.

Thus, I had no other choice but to remain silent.
