A week ago, I updated my Macbook Pro to 10.13 and reformatted both internal disks (SSH and HDD) to encrypted APFS. So far the SSD is working but I have a problem with the HDD. I can't mount the APFS volume from HDD to the system, it just takes too much time and nothing happens.
Running diskutil repairvolume /dev/disk3 it gives this output:

I've tried to mount HDD from Recovery mode and seems what it can't decrypt the volume. According to diskutil apfs list decryption stuck on 31%.
I've tried to reach Apple support, but they couldn't help me. What can be done next?

Erase the volume. This can be done in Recovery Mode if necessary using the Terminal, which can be opened using the menu. Restore from a backup, then enable FileVault2, leaving the computer on and plugged in to allow the encryption to complete uninterrupted.
This will erase all of the data on the volume you specify and leave behind an empty unencrypted volume:
