She was wearing champagne-colored silk pajamas, and there was no trace of age; she was almost fifty years old. She clutched her suitcase and said, "Didn't you go to the banquet tonight? Why did it end so quickly? Where's Emma, didn't she come back with you?" For some reason, Sophia also knew that she owed Crystal a lot, but she couldn't help being a bit mean every time she talked to her.
She attributed this to her hatred of iron becoming steel. Evan followed her mother and leaned in with half of his body. In the room, "Emma just called me. The banquet is not over yet. Crystal ran away early." "I heard that Mr. Spencer suddenly fainted in the room during the banquet. He and Crystal were the only ones in the room at that time. Crystal, it wasn't you who made Mr. Spencer faint, was it?" Evan was the third child in the family. It was already troublesome for him to have such a perfect sister like Emma, and now there was another one, and he was so angry that she was dividing the family property.
Sophia frowned, "What?" "Crystal, do you know who Mr. Spencer is? How many people are lining up to go to the banquet for him? If you provoke him, not even Emma can save you." Sophia looked at Evan, "I didn't want her to be embarrassed in the first place. It was your sister who took her. She didn't appreciate it and messed it up."
After letting it go, Crystal might be sad and upset at the moment, and she might be so angry that her hands were shaking, but at this moment, her heart felt extremely relaxed. "This is great," she thought, "Mom, we finally don’t have to torture each other."
The best solution for two people who hate each other is not to stick around, live with each other over time, but to break up immediately and free each other.
Because she was attending the banquet, she wore a pearl necklace around her slender neck. This was her most expensive jewelry. It was given to her by Sophia the day she returned home.
It was a string of precious Tahitian black pearls. Each one was of the highest grade AA. The rarest thing is that these twenty-seven pearls are almost the same size. Each pearl has no flaws, making it a rare gem.
Sophia spent a huge amount of money to buy these pearls and make them into necklaces for Crystal, which meant that the pearl in her eye was lost and it will not be recovered.
Crystal chuckled lightly and took off the necklace from her neck.
The more precious something is, the more fragile it is. However, with a gentle tug, this expensive pearl necklace was torn into pieces.
The lost pearls fell to the ground and rolled into the finest dust.
In other words, they had always been in this dust.
Evan was so frightened that he screamed, and Sophia was also stunned.
"Crystal, what are you doing?!"
Crystal, how could she? How dare she?
Does she know what she is doing?!
Crystal had been missing for nine years. The moment she saw Crystal again, her heart was broken. These pearls... there were twenty-seven of them, which meant that she had to spend several times more time to make up for Crystal and her. The pains suffered.
With almost no thought, Sophia subconsciously knelt on the ground to pick them up. The expensive pearls rolled all over the floor and danced without a trace. Even if she managed to pick them up, there were many scratches on them that made it difficult to recover.
"Mom," Crystal said with a smile, "I'm leaving. I won't continue to embarrass you."
"I know that I am not Mom's ideal daughter. In this case, Mom will be the same as before, with only Emma as her daughter."
With a bang, the door was closed.
"How dare she... how dare she break this necklace..." Sophia murmured, "Crystal!"
"If you dare to walk out of this door today, you will never be able to enter again. Don't come back!"
...
Sophia's words failed to stop Crystal. Similarly, Brandon's angry words of "Don't leave" also failed to make Olivia understand.
The atmosphere in the ward was a bit depressing. The doctor just said after chatting with Olivia about Brandon's test results, Mr. Brandon's indicators were all normal. The reason why he fainted was because of the reaction after being stimulated by something.
Olivia was a little surprised.
Emma stood in a corner and spoke after a long while, "Mr. Brandon, I'm really sorry. What happened today was an accident. Fortunately, your health is not serious."
"Who are you?" Emma didn't expect Brandon to be so disrespectful. To save face, she said, "I am Crystal's sister."
Brandon frowned, "Sister?"
Mr. Brandon said stiffly, "It's not your fault. I don't want your apology. Where is Crystal? Let her come in; I want her to apologize to me in person."
Emma hesitated, "She... is not outside."
"Not outside?"
Even though it was the first time they met, Brandon never thought that Crystal would not be by his side. He felt that this woman was very familiar, as if she was born to be by his side. He didn't dare to say that.
"Where did Crystal go? Why didn't she come?" Emma didn't plan to answer these questions anymore, and Brandon didn't have the intention to ask them. Harry politely sent her out, while Olivia half-crouched next to Brandon.
"Crystal, twenty-one years old, has lived in an unknown town in City before she was twelve years old. When she was twelve years old, she was taken back to City A by Sophia. She claimed to be her niece, but in fact... she was the biological daughter that Sophia lost many years ago."
"Do you want to check the whereabouts of this person?" Olivia thoughtfully attached a photo.
In the photo, Crystal was only eighteen years old, with a childish look on her face. Brandon took the photo.
It was an ordinary face, which could only be called delicate at best. She smiled stupidly at the camera.
Brandon stared at the photo for a long time and finally said, "No."
He didn't understand why Crystal wasn't there, why she didn't stay with him right away. She clearly hurt him, but why didn't she even apologize?
He couldn't even figure out where her resentful thoughts came from. It was just the first time he and Crystal had met, so why was it worth wasting so much time?
The doctor injected Mr. Brandon with a soothing medicine. His mood gradually stabilized, and the sourness lingering in his heart gradually disappeared. Brandon smiled and returned the photo to Olivia.
"I don't know this person at all, why? Check her?"
Olivia nodded, "Wait," Olivia was stunned, and the photo was snatched back by Brandon.
Mr. Brandon stared at the photo blankly for a while, his expression was lingering, as if he was looking at his close lover.
The next second, he then tore the photo into pieces.
