Chapter 265
Anaya lowered her head and said, “…I’ve been delayed by something, but it doesn’t hurt that much. actually.”
The nurse said, “How can it not hurt? It’s such a big burn! You must take care of it and make sure that your wound stays dry. It will be troublesome if you get infected.”
Anaya thanked her. Crystal carried the medicine for her. The two of them took the elevator together. Anaya said, “I’ve really troubled you too much today. Just let me take the medicine…”
“It’s fine.” Crystal said, “It’s not heavy.”
Anaya didn’t insist.
Crystal suddenly said, “Anaya, I find that you really don’t cherish yourself.”
Anaya was stunned. “What?”
Crystal frowned and said, “No matter what you have experienced, there is still a long way to go. If you don’t love yourself, how can you expect others to love you?”
Anaya looked into the girl’s clear eyes. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
After so many years of working hard in Fairby, Anaya had seen all kinds of people, but she had never seen such a pair of clean eyes as clean as the deer in the forest. They were not stained with the secular world, and all the filth was removed, leaving only the ice and snow on the mountain.
She looked away and whispered, “I was really just careless… It’s nothing.”
Seeing that she didn’t want to say more, Crystal didn’t continue to ask and went back to the studio with Anaya.
In the afternoon, when Crystal was picking out embroidery threads, an internal phone call came in. The receptionist said that someone was looking for her downstairs.
Crystal put down the embroidery thread and told Anaya about it before she hurried downstairs. She saw Kimberly sitting on the sofa drinking coffee in the reception area on the first floor.
“?” Crystal was a little confused.
Why would Kimberly come looking for her?
“Second Madam.” Crystal greeted her politely. “Is there anything I can help you with, Second Madam?”
Kimberly looked up at Crystal and said, “If possible, I didn’t want to come to you either.”
She stood up and said, “Harold has grounded Old Madam for you. How can you be so at ease?”
Crystal said, “She wanted to bury me alive. I didn’t call the police because I still respect the elders.”
“You!” Kimberly was so angry that she gritted her teeth. Soon, she calmed down again. “I can’t be bothered to lower myself to the level of a country bumpkin like you! The reason why I came here today is that the old madam is ill. She kept calling Harold’s name, but Harold is still angry with the old madam. You should go back to see the old madam first so that Harold will also tag along.”
“Old Madam is ill?”
Kimberly rolled her eyes at her. “Isn’t it caused by you!?”
Crystal, “…”
Crystal took a step back. “I won’t go.”
Kimberly said, “Old Madam is devoted to protecting Harold. Now that she misses her grandson in her illness, aren’t you willing to help her with such a small matter?”
Crystal said, “She misses Master White, so you should go and find him.”
“… If I could convince Harold, then why would I come looking for you?!” Kimberly said with a green face. “What’s wrong with you going there? You can’t let Harold ignore his grandmother for the rest of his life because of you, right? If you really think for Harold, then you should be more sensible!”
Crystal was a little hesitant. “Then… will Old Madam’s situation get worsen if I go to see her?”
“It’s fine as long as you don’t go in.” Kimberly said, “No one asked you to go in. It’s just to make Harold go over. When he knows you’re in the old house, wouldn’t he take the opportunity to come back and see the old madam?”
