Chapter 114
After washing up, Crystal went downstairs. On the dining table lay a bowl of fresh fried shrimp, sweet bean roll, and a plate of fruit. After eating the delicious breakfast, Crystal yawned. Just as she was about to go out to take a walk with Devil that kept biting the corner of her clothes, her cell
phone rang.
It was a call from Antony. He said in an impatient voice, “Come back to the Evans family’s house
now.”
“For what?” Crystal said, “I’m going to take a walk with my new pet.”
Antony said with a dark face, “Your adoptive grandma and mother are here.”
Crystal was sitting on a chair, dangling her feet. When she heard this, she paused and asked, “What?”
Antony said irritably, “Early in the morning, the help came and reported that two women came to look for you. One claimed to be your mother and the other claimed to be your grandmother. Today, I’m the only one at home. I’m so annoyed. They wanted to see you, and they refuse to leave until they see you. Come here.”
Crystal replied with an “oh” and suddenly asked, “Is Dora not home?” Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Antony paused for a moment before replying, “No, she isn’t here.”
Crystal did not say anything more and hung up the phone.
Antony put away his mobile phone and turned around to look at Debbie and Mia who were sitting in the living room, looking around greedily. Those people could never make others like them. Antony couldn’t
imagine that these women were the ones who had raised Crystal. Compared to them, Crystal was just a bit ignorant, but she didn’t make others feel this uncomfortable. “Hey, Mr. Evans!” Debbie said with a smile, “I’ve long heard that the young masters of the Evans family are all good-looking men. When I saw you today, I knew that the rumors were true. Look at you, you are even more handsome than the movie stars on TV.”
She stretched out her hand and tugged at Antony’s sleeve. “Oh… this fabric is expensive, isn’t it? You have to spend quite a sum of money to make a shirt like this, right?”
Antony frowned and pulled back his sleeve. “It’s not expensive.”
“I know that your Evans family is rich. You use all the best stuff. It’s a pity for your sister. She has been living a hard life in the countryside with us since she was a child. Alas…” Debbie sighed. When Antony heard her mention Crystal, he asked, “Did she suffer a lot when she was young?” “We couldn’t help it. Our family is poor, and she has been very picky since she was little. She always took all the good food at home. When she grew up, she became fashionable, asking us to buy her new dresses all day long…”
The way Debbie said was sincere. If Antony hadn’t had any contact with Crystal, he would have believed it. However, after getting along with Crystal, he felt that the spoiled girl in Debbie’s mouth was too strange and totally different from Crystal’s in his impression.
All of a sudden, the helps at the door all bowed and said in unison, “Good morning, Mr. Evans.”
Antony turned around and saw Danny coming in. He asked in confusion, “Brother, why are you
back?”
“I left a document here last night. I need to take it.” Danny was wearing a formal suit and leather shoes, his eyes calm. He looked at Debbie and Mia, asking, “Who are they?”
When Antony was about to introduce the uninvited guests, Debbie had already greeted him with great enthusiasm. “You must be the young master of the Evans family! Oh, you really look like a
great businessman… I am Crystal’s grandmother. Ever since she came back here, she hasn’t made a phone call home. We really miss her, so we came here to see her.”
Danny said coldly, “She hasn’t made a phone call?”
“That’s right…” Mia sighed and said, “Now, that she has returned to her biological family, she looks down on us… But maybe it’s because she’s too busy and has no time.”
