Chapter 77
As long as Corey’s brain was normal, he would not give her the money. Harold was simply using this as an excuse to cause trouble. After all, at that time, Crystal’s face was full of tears and she looked very pitiful.
“If you really want it…” Harold said, “I have a way to make him give us.”
“Forget it, forget it.” Crystal said, “My head no longer hurts. I’m a forgiving person. I won’t argue with him anymore.”
Harold asked, “What did he say to you today?”
Crystal was very good at coming up with the main points. She counted on her fingers and said, “First, he told me that Bonnie went to the Coombs family and scolded him for two hours yesterday. Second, he told me that you blackmailed him for three hundred thousand dollars. Third, he wanted me to compensate him, but I’m very poor. I can’t afford it. To sum it up, he’s very unhappy.” “That’s it?” Harold raised his eyebrows.
“That lunatic Corey, even if he feared me and wouldn’t do anything to Crystal, he didn’t even scare her at all?”
“That’s it.” Crystal nodded. “He seems to want to make trouble for me, but someone called him, he left first.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a sudden ringing. It turned out that it was her old- fashioned phone that was ringing. Crystal quickly took out the phone and answered it. “Hello?” “It’s me.” Antony’s voice was a little hoarse. “I heard that Luke took you away.”
“Uh.” Crystal asked curiously, “But how did you know my phone number?”
“I found it.” Antony paused and said, “Corey… didn’t do anything to you, did he?”
“No.” Crystal said, “I’m fine. I can eat, drink, run, and jump… Why are you calling me?”
Antony asked, “What do you think?”
SO
Crystal thought for a moment. “… To make sure that I’m still alive? If I am dead, you would celebrate with Dora, wouldn’t you?”
“…” Antony gritted his teeth and said, “Crystal, you’re such a f*cking ungrateful person.”
After that, he hung up the phone.
Crystal was confused.
“Why did he curse me?”
Harold asked, “Antony?”
“Yes.” Crystal said, “He’s so strange. He called me to scold me.”
Harold asked, “Why didn’t you scold him back?” Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
Crystal was stunned for a moment. “That’s right… I forgot.”
“Forget it.” Crystal said, “I don’t think I can beat him.” She looked at the window in front of the car and
asked, “Master White, where are we going?”
“We’re going to eat,” Harold said.
“Do you have another girlfriend?” Crystal was puzzled.
“…” Harold said, “Just purely eating.”
Crystal was relieved. The main reason was that she couldn’t bear to have another meal with a
woman like Jacqueline. After all, Jacqueline was really strong, and she was scared to death at that time.
The car stopped in front of a restaurant. It should be a private restaurant here as there was no one around.
Crystal followed behind Harold and saw that the decoration here was very elegant and antique. However, the tables were all empty and there were no guests.
“Hello.” The waitress in the cheongsam smiled sweetly. “We received a notice from the higher-ups and the whole restaurant has been booked. Please rest assured that there are no other guests. here.”
Crystal’s attention was drawn to the fish tank in the courtyard. She couldn’t help walking over but was brought back by Harold. “What are you running around for?”
Crystal said, “I’ve never seen such a golden fish before. I think it looks good.”
In the fish tank, there was a very precious red mint immortal. It was also called the Gentleman Immortal. Because it was beautiful, it lived in the deep water area under the steep reef all year round. The capture rate was five times higher than the average price.
