Chapter 397
Crystal ate the hot pot that she had been longing for. Anaya received a call halfway through, and her
expression changed as she stood up.
Crystal asked, “Anaya, what’s wrong?”
“Jared is sick.” Anaya said, “Sorry, I have to go back. I will go back to the studio in the afternoon and alter
the dress.”
“I’ll do the alteration?” Crystal said, “You do your own things.”
“I’m fine.” Anaya said, “He will fall asleep after taking the medicine. I have time. I’ve gotten off work early
many times. I will feel bad if I bother you again.”
Crystal didn’t insist and said, “Okay. Be careful then.”
She was asking Anaya to watch out for Sarita and her mother.
Anaya smiled and said, “I know.”

opposite her. She smiled and said, “Hello, miss. This is our hidden service. If you eat hot pot alone, we
will give you a toy to accompany you.”
The toy on the opposite side was a white rabbit that was more than a meter long. It was very cute.
Crystal smiled and said, “Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.” The waiter poured her a glass of water and left. She turned a few corners and
whispered, “Sir, it has been sent over.”
“Mm.” The man took a sip of tea and asked, “Does she like it?”
The waiter thought for a moment and said, “The young lady seems very happy. She should like it.” The
man didn’t say anything more. He just waved his hand and let the waiter leave.
He stood up and lifted the bamboo curtain in front of him, only to see Crystal’s red side face.
She was very cute.
Crystal had eaten hot pot and had nothing to do. She planned to go to Harold’s office to sleep, but she
wasn’t in luck. There were people in the office which she didn’t want to meet.
Crystal’s back stiffened. She turned around and ran, but before she could run more than two steps,
someone grabbed his waist. “What are you running for?”
“Marcus is inside.” Crystal whispered, “I don’t want to see him.”
Harold acted as if he didn’t hear Crystal’s words and said, “It just so happens that your brother is here.”
Then he walked into the office with Crystal in his arms.
Crystal was speechless.
She was going to sleep separately from Harold tonight! She was very angry!
Marcus was dressed very seriously today, with a thin striped shirt and a pair of well-cut trousers. His
eyes were full of affection and were very beautiful. Even a girl would blush and her heart beat faster
when she looked at them.
Crystal’s face was also red and her heart was beating fast.
She was angry and scared.

She was angry that Harold dragged her in but was afraid of Marcus.
After all, she had met Marcus twice, and Marcus wanted to kill her both the times they met.
Like a primary school student, she sat down next to Harold and did not look at Marcus. Instead, Marcus
was the first to speak. “You came just in time. I came to see you.”
Crystal slowly turned her head. “You came to see me?”
“Yes.” Marcus smiled. “I would like to ask you for a favor.”
Crystal immediately showed off.
Wasn’t he powerful? He was a superstar. Why did he want her to help him?
She raised her chin and said in a tone of approval, “What can I do for you?”
Harold thought that she was so cute and laughed. Crystal immediately glared at him and said, “Don’t
spoil the atmosphere!”
Harold restrained his smile and said, “Marcus, go ahead.”
Marcus said, “I have an elder who wants to ask you to amend a piece of clothing.”
“There are many embroiderers who are good at embroidery. Why are you looking for me?”
