Chapter 26
Crystal thought to herself, “Oh no, is he going to vent his anger on her again?”
Antony looked solemn. “Crystal!”
His tone was dead serious, which was different from the way he lost his temper previously, and it confused Crystal. “Why did you call me?”
Antony was silent for a moment before he finally spoke up. “You’re still young. Don’t give to money. Do you think you would have the life to spend it?”
Crystal did not understand what he meant. “What are you talking about? How come I understand nothing?”
When the Evans family’s car arrived at Sunshine Village, her grandmother and mother almost threw her into the car. She didn’t even have a chance to ask.
She didn’t know that the Evans family had spent 15,000 dollars to buy her back. So, in these people’s thought, she was a girl who didn’t want to live a tough life in the countryside. Even if she had to become a widow, she was willing to marry into the White family to enjoy the glory and wealth. Crystal actually thought that her life in the countryside wasn’t really good, and it would be nice to return to her real family. Unfortunately, fate had played tricks on her again. She accepted it calmly and didn’t resist, but everyone here said that she came to steal things from Dora…
“Don’t even think about chasing Dora away!” Antony said. “My brothers won’t let you off so easily.” And that scary and stubborn father of his, although they were father and son, he didn’t like such a father figure.
Crystal bit her lower lip and felt inexplicably wronged.
The man grabbed her wrist angrily. “Are you listening to me or not?!”
Soon, Crystal’s wrist was bruised. “Let go of me. It hurts so much!”
Antony released her hand. Surprised, he recognized that although the little girl was brought up in the countryside, she had perfectly inherited all the best features of their mother. For example, her skin was as flawless and soft as the first snow of the season.
“Can you stop hurting me when we talk? You don’t know how strong you are!”
Antony was just about to say that she was too annoying when he saw the bruise on her wrist. So, his words changed at the tip of his tongue. “Why are you crying? Just come to your room and apply some medicine.”
Then, he grabbed the back of Crystal’s collar and walked toward the room. “In the entire Evans family, I’m the only one who has a good temper. If you shout at big brother, he knock your head
off.”
Crystal’s eyes widened. “Is he really as scary as you said?”
Antony said coldly, as if he was telling a thriller story. “Big brother’s temper is not what a human should have. Except for that King of Hell Harold, I’m afraid no one can compete with him.”
Crystal felt what he said was wrong. “No, Master White is a good person.”
Antony looked at her as if he was looking at a lunatic. “Are you out of your mind? Go and ask around. Before he died, anyone who saw him would be scared to death.”
Crystal muttered in a low voice, “He’s not scary at all.”
Not only he gave her food, he also said that no one in the White family could bully her. In City W, he was the gentlest man. It must be just a rumor when they said he was the King of Hell! Just-a-rumor! The room Eva arranged for her was far away from the main residence. Antony walked in the front, and Crystal followed him honestly.
It was probably because the trip was too long, and Antony’s legs were long as well. Gradually, Crystal couldn’t move anymore, as if she had turned into a snail. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
Antony was utterly impatient. “You’re so slow. If you don’t hurry up, we can see the sunrise tomorrow when we get there!”
Crystal’s legs were so sore. So, she complained, “I always walk slowly since I was born. Who asked you to take care of me?”
Antony saw that she couldn’t make it. He had no choice but to squat down in front of her, “Come on up!”
Crystal was shocked and found it unbelievable. “You, you, you want to carry me?”
Antony turned around and found that the girl was retreating in disgust. He got mad immediately, “Are you hoping on or not? I’m your brother, can I really sell you away?!”
