Matthew was emotional after hearing Ellie's explanation.
A vivid memory of their initial meeting with Crystal remained in his mind. Both of them had gotten into an
argument, which was not a pleasant experience for them. Though he found it hard to fathom how far she had
cin such a short time, he was genuinely happy for her.
"Do you all work here now?" he inquired.
Ellie shook her head. "Nope. Our office is upstairs."
He gazed around in bewilderment. "But, my office..."
She said with a smile, "Oh! That's because Crystal regularly comes here to clean. She left on a business trip
yesterday and requestedto clean on her behalf. She also instructed that the flowers in the vase must be
changed to fresh ones every day."
Then, Matthew noticed Ellie still had the bouquet in her hand. It seemed like she had cto swap the flowers

The gesture touched his heart deeply. It appears that Crystal now harbors deep feelings for me.
He recalled the incident in Woodside when Crystal swallowed the Frost Charm and nearly died.
| honestly owe her far too much’. Yet, | am at a loss as to how to repay her, and | can never offer her what she
truly desires.
Their conversation lasted for a while before an unexpected phone call cin.
Matthew looked at the caller ID and saw a number he didn't recognize. Despite this, he answered the phone,
"Hello, I..."
On the other end of the phone, he could hear the furious tone of a woman's voice before he could continue his
sentence. "Are you Matthew Larson?"
He was taken aback. "Yes, it is me. Who is this?"
The person on the other end answered furiously, "There's a girl here named Natalie Larson. Is she your sister?"
His demeanor changed upon hearing these remarks, and he instantly inquired, "She is my sister. What's wrong?
What happened to her?"
The opposing party shouted, "What's wrong? Your sister hit my car and then tried to wiggle out of admitting
responsibility for the accident. Still, | was able to catch her in the act. Get your dumb*ss over here, and let's
discuss how to handle this situation. If not, don't blme for being rude!"
His brow wrinkled in unison. The woman on the other end of the line was obviously not trying to be nice to him
based on how she spoke to him.
He had a good understanding of Natalie's character. His sister had always been a timid and humble person. She
couldn't even upset others, let alone deny responsibility for her behavior.
"How is my sister?" he asked instantly.
The person on the other end responded, "Do you really have the tto be concerned about your sister right
now? Why don't you ask about the condition of my car? Do you have any idea how much my car is worth? Do
you know how much it will cost to fix the damage from a crash like that?"
He realized that conversing with this woman would be pointless.

Therefore, he could only ask about the location and exclaimed in a deep voice, "When | arrive, | will personally
address any issues that may have arisen! You'd better listen up! If you scare my sister, | will not forgive you!"
He hung up the phone and dashed outside after saying that.
Natalie's school was the scene of the accident. Unfortunately, it was rush hour traffic after work, and as he left
the hospital, he saw heavy traffic outside. There was no way to predict when he would arrive if he drove there.
Fortunately, Ellie owned a small electric bike, so he hopped on that and sped off to school. The school was close
to the hospital, so it only took him ten minutes to get there.
By this time, the school had already been dismissed, and hardly any students or staff members were left. As he
rode his electric bike up to the school's entrance, a guard immediately stopped him.
The guard scrutinized Matthew from head to toe and saw that he was riding an electric bike and dressed
casually. A sarcastic look crossed the guard's face.
"This is a school. No outsiders are allowed to enter as they please!" the guard warned with a dark expression.
Matthew was very anxious and said solemnly, "My sister is studying here, and something has happened to her! |
need to go in and check on her!"
The guard slammed his palm against the table. "I don't care which of your relatives are studying here! I'm not
letting you in! Don't even think about getting in!"
