Chapter 123
Every time, Crystal would be shocked by Harold. In his eyes, money was really just a currency symbol,
and he didn’t care about it at all.
“They don’t treat you well?” Harold suddenly asked.
Crystal said subconsciously, “They do. I…”
When she said this, her eyes turned red again.
“Crystal.” Harold called her name. Crystal mumbled an ambiguous ‘hmm’. Harold suddenly leaned over
and placed his hands on her waist. He picked her up and placed her on his lap.
Crystal had the steering wheel on her back. From the window of the car, she could still see pedestrians
coming and going. She was shocked. “What… what are you doing?”
Harold’s facial features were much more profound than most Asians. His nose was tall and straight,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand the tip of his nose leaned against Crystal’s delicate neck. His voice was very hoarse. “You can just
admit it if they don’t treat you well. Why are you lying?”
Crystal’s nose twitched and tears fell one by one. She hugged Harold’s neck and cried, “They are not
good to me at all… I don’t like them… I don’t like them at all…”
She cried so hard that Harold’s collar was almost wet. He patted the child’s back and said, “Then why
did you lie?”
“Oh… I will be locked up.” Crystal sobbed and said, “When I was a child, our teacher asked me if my
grandma often hit me. I said yes, and my grandma locked me in the woodshed for three days. It was
too dark. I’m afraid…”
Harold frowned. “Three days?”
“Sob sob sob…” Crystal’s crying voice became hoarse. “Moreover, no one would believe me…”
No one believed her. Perhaps, even if they knew that she was having a hard time, they wouldn’t have
the time to care about her.
Most people in this world were like this. It was none of their business. It was just human nature. There
was nothing wrong with it.
“Stop crying.” Harold rubbed her soft long hair and said, “I believe you.”
Crystal said with tears in her eyes, “Really?”
“Why would I lie to you?” Harold said, “Do I get candy to eat if I lie to a child?”
Crystal wiped her red and swollen eyes and said gloomily, “Antony doesn’t believe me.”
He only believed in Debbie and Mia’s words.
“Because he’s stupid.” Harold said casually, “Why do you care what an idiot thinks?”
Crystal said, “Although it’s not good to scold others, it’s very cool.”
Harold laughed out loud. “As a child, you can’t use bad words.”
Crystal said, “I’m already nineteen. I’m not a child. I turned into an adult last year.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHarold narrowed his eyes. “So, you can fulfill your duties as a wife now?”
Crystal didn’t feel it before, but after feeling sad, she realized that she was too close to Harold. The
driver’s seat wasn’t big to begin with, so she was practically sticking to Harold’s body. She could clearly
feel the heat of an adult man’s body.
It was like a fire burning through the skin that touched each other, covering the bottom of her heart and
burning her cheeks as soft and red as smoke clouds.
Her eyelashes kept trembling, and she said, “I’m just your fiancee. We haven’t registered our marriage
yet. The law won’t approve of our marriage, so I don’t have this obligation.”
Harold pinched her little chubby face and said, “Look, you young girls are really good at coaxing
people. You get rid of others after you’re done using them. Just now, you were crying on my body, but
now you turn against me and don’t recognize me. You want to distance yourself from me. Crystal, tell
me, isn’t that too much?”
