Chapter 316
“Have a good talk?” Eric sneered. “Does he look like he wants to have a good talk with me?”
Alda looked at Corey with a frown. “Corey, you’re always so straightforward…”
Corey showed a fake smile. “You don’t need to pretend to be a good person here.”
“Listen to what he just said!” Eric said, “His words are all very harsh. Why should I come here to be
pissed by him?”
After saying that, Eric turned around and was about to leave. Alda pulled him back and said, “Alright,
alright, Eric. Corey is your own son. It’s not appropriate for you two to remain in a deadlock like this.
You need to interact more and be together more often before you can…”
Corey was completely impatient. “What are you doing here?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlda smiled and said, “Didn’t I tell you? You haven’t been home for a long time. Your father and I came
to see you, and we also came to see the Peggie…”
Her gaze landed on Crystal. The expression in her eyes at that moment made Crystal very
uncomfortable. However, Alda’s tone was gentle. “Is this… your girlfriend?”
When Eric heard this, he also began to size up Crystal.
“No,” Corey replied coldly.
Alda said, “I didn’t see you bring a girl to Pina Garden before. It’s time for you to have a girlfriend. Why
are you hiding it from the family?”
She seemed to be one or two years younger than Corey, but she spoke like an elder. Those who didn’t
know her would really think that she was Corey’s biological mother.
Corey frowned and his eyes were full of impatience. If it had been in the past, he would have been
angry at this time. However, considering that Crystal, who was as timid as a rabbit, was here today, he
suppressed his temper and said, “Does it have anything to do with you whether she is my girlfriend or
not?”
Alda said, “If she’s your girlfriend, you have to introduce her to us. Today, both your father and I are
here… Why don’t we have a meal together? We can get to know each other.”
She looked at Crystal and said softly, “Miss, what do you think?”
Crystal was confused.
“For what?” Corey said coldly. He grabbed Crystal’s arm and said, “You should go back now.”
Just as Crystal was about to pass the leash to him, Eric suddenly said, “How many times have I told
you not to refuse Alda’s request? Do you still want to know where Felicia is?”
Almost as soon as the name “Felicia” came out, Corey tensed up visibly.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCrystal remembered that Corey had said that Peggie was a stray cat that his younger sister had
brought back. Felicia… was his younger sister’s name, right?
“You’ve been keeping me in the dark for so many years. If you can’t explain yourself…” Corey’s eyes
were fierce. “I will definitely peel off your skin and tear off your bones. I will make you regret what
you’ve done in Hell!*
The Coombs family was now completely under Corey’s control. Eric could only be arrogant in front of
Corey because he knew Felicia’s whereabouts. When he heard Corey’s words, he shuddered
subconsciously. However, he quickly asked, “Is this how you should talk to your father?!”
Crystal had felt that the young masters of the Evans family and Daxton did not look like father and
sons. Now, it seemed that the sons of the Evans family were very filial if compared to Corey when he
dealt with Eric. They seemed as if they would tear apart each other’s skin and bones in no time. “Ah.”
Alda tried to mediate, “Stop arguing… Why don’t we have a meal here? Ask the servants to prepare
the food. I haven’t eaten here before. I wonder how good the cook’s cooking skills are.”
