Chapter 178
Marcus leaned against the back seat of the car, expressionless.
After hesitating for a long time, Kalen said, “Marcus, are you really leaving her there? What if
something happens…”
“What does it have to do with me?” Marcus said coldly.
“…” Kalen immediately did not dare to speak.
It was said that Marcus was as gentle as jade and he was a gentleman, but only Kalen, who had been
with him for several years, knew that this person looked gentle, but in fact, he was the most indifferent
person. It seemed that even his heart was cold, without any warmth.
In the back seat, Crystal’s cell phone kept ringing. Someone was calling her. Marcus turned off the
phone without looking at it.
Kalen took a deep breath and said, “Marcus, after all, she’s your biological sister. As a little girl, it’s

beasts here, if she meets bad people…”
“It’s so late, no one is going up the mountain.” Marcus said lightly, “She can just treat this as a lesson
from her brother. She shouldn’t trust others so easily.”
Kalen sighed deeply.
Crystal didn’t know how long she had been squatting there.
She wanted to see if there were any cars passing by, but when she was about to fall asleep, the road
was still quiet.
Crystal wiped her tears and hugged herself more tightly. She was wondering if she should choose a
path randomly based on her feelings when she suddenly saw a dazzling car light. She raised her hand
to block the light, watched the car getting closer and closer, and finally stopped in front of her. The car
door opened, and the man got out of the driver’s seat. Against the light of the car, she could not see his
face clearly. She only felt that his shoulders were wide and his legs were long. His long. black
windbreaker cut through the dazzling light, as if the darkness of the night was gradually eroding the
light. At this moment, everything was silent, and the world was boundless. He was the only one in the
world.
Crystal blinked her eyes slowly.
The man stopped in front of her and bent slightly to look down at her. “Let’s see what I found.” “A little
mushroom with a crying nose.”
Crystal couldn’t hold back her tears anymore. She suddenly stood up and threw herself into his arms,
crying so loudly, “Boohoo, boohoo, boohoo… I thought… I thought I was abandoned…” Harold hugged
her. She had been in the cold wind for too long, and her body was cold. He pulled Crystal into his coat
and touched her hair. “You’re not abandoned.”
“Didn’t I come to pick you up?”
The more he coaxed Crystal, the louder she cried, and her body was shaking.
Harold held her face and saw that her face was all red, like a kitten. He smiled and said, “You’ve cried
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfor so long. Aren’t you tired?”
Crystal choked with sobs. “You’re laughing at me…”
“You’re the one who’s stupid. Can’t I laugh at you?” Harold wiped her tears and said, “Crystal, you’re
the most stupid person I’ve ever seen.”
Crystal’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Not only are you laughing at me, but you’re also scolding me!” She
struggled to stop Harold from hugging her. “I hate you!”
Harold pulled her into his arms and said, “I think I’m stupid too.”
“I drove for more than an hour to pick up a little idiot.”
Crystal sniffed. “Why did you even curse yourself…”
Harold said, “I’ve never dealt with idiots.”
“You let me make an exception.”
Crystal cried and said, “Can you stop scolding me? I’m really sad.”
She pulled Harold’s collar and said in a muffled voice, “I want to go home…”
Harold agreed and held her hand, saying, “Okay, I’ll take you home.”
