Chapter 20
He pinched the woman’s little face. “Did you kiss people like this before?”
“Of course not. I have kissed your cheek only.” Crystal’s innocent eyes were like limpid streams that hid no secrets. “You treat me well. Of course, I want to kiss you.”
In fact, he hadn’t treated her really well. How pitiful she used to be, so that she could be satisfied so easily?
Harold had always been indifferent. There were too many pitiful people in the world. The law of the jungle was his principle. But now, his heart suddenly became soft. He slowly felt that… the Evans family had gone too far.
This girl was so petite. She might not be well-fed when she was young.
“Luke,” Harold frowned.
“Yes, sir.” Luke had been waiting at the door. “Master White, what can I do for you?”
Harold ordered, “You’re in charge of Madame’s meals. Don’t let her be hungry no matter what.”
Then, he looked at Crystal, “Whatever you want to eat, just tell Luke.”
Crystal was so joyful as if she just won the jackpot, excitedly hugging and kissing Harold again. The man pinched her face and pushed her back, looking like a gentleman. “Kissed me again?”
Okay, it was okay not to kiss him as long as he gave her food! Crystal happily sat back in her seat and poured herself a full glass of juice.
Luke, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded. The girl had changed so much after just one day as now she got a significant position in Master White’s consideration.
Harold the King of Hell was utterly possessive. As long as it was the thing or the person he wanted, anyone attempted to get his favorite thing would see blood. Apparently, in his mind, Crystal was now his personal possession.
“Are you eighteen or nineteen?” Harold asked while eating.
Crystal replied, “Nineteen years old. I can be considered a young adult.”
“Have you gone to college?”
When it came to university, Crystal was a little sad. Harold caught her emotion at first glance. But he wanted to tease the girl, so he added.
“I heard that you aren’t smart and your grades are so poor that you can’t go to college?” There was already a rumor about her in City W that Crystal Evans looked ordinary and got a strange temper. People in Sunshine Village hated her as she was particularly annoying. She wasn’t smart, but she liked to bully her younger brother.
An ignorant countryside woman couldn’t go to college. It was normal, though.
Compared to Dora, the difference was even more obvious. They were like clouds and mud. Dora was beautiful, elegant and well-educated. She had gone to T University, one of the top five universities in the country. She just graduated yesterday with a big ceremony. Now, the Evans family almost treated her as a princess.
“I… didn’t do well in the exam.” Crystal lowered her head, looking so depressed.
The day before the college entrance examination, her grandmother heard that it was so expensive to go to college, so she locked Crystal up in the dark room. She told people that she would send her to the city to work, and after a few years, she would marry her to some guy in the neighbor village. In short, Crystal should forget about going to college.
Crystal cried until early in the morning. Fortunately, someone had secretly opened the door for her. She hurriedly went to the school to take the exam. On the way, she got a fever, which made her almost faint when she arrived at the examination room. It resulted in her bad performance that day. She didn’t even have enough time to answer all the questions.
Seeing the tears in her eyes, Harold said, “If you really want to go to college, you just need to tell me. It will be done easily.”
Crystal’s eyes lit up. “Master White, you mean… you want to use your money to open the back door for me?”
Harold nodded. “Yes, it costs a few buildings, though.”
Crystal finally knew the benefits of having money. It was so awesome!
“However, it’s not good. It’s true that I didn’t pass the entrance exam. It can give you a bad influence.” Crystal lowered her head. “Although I didn’t get into the university I wanted, it’s good that I can still pursue my education…” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
The problem was that she didn’t have any money now. How could she buy some textbooks?
She had thought that when she returned to the Evans family in City W, she could borrow money from them as she was their biological daughter. But in the end, her father and brothers did not like her.
And, she ended up like this.
Haroid chuckled when she said that it could bring him a bad influence. It was the first time someone told him that using money could bring him some bad effect. “What kind of bad influence it could be when I donate some buildings to a university? Moreover, I’m a man who always abides by the law.”
