Dana did make a lot of delicious food today. Crystal forgot everything as soon as she ate. Naturally, she did not notice the change in Harold’s behavior after she ran away.
After dinner, Crystal suddenly remembered what had happened to Anaya. Although Anaya had said that Ariel was telling the truth, Crystal did not believe what she had said. She asked Harold, “Master White, do you know Alan?”
Harold paused for a moment. “You mean the eldest son of the Shamus Family? I don’t really know him. I only met him once at the party.”
The Shamus family was a noble and wealthy family in Fairby, but they could not compete with the White family. Alan had been very successful in recent years and was a new upstart in a famous shopping mall. However, to Harold, he was nothing more than a young man who could be
considered eye-catching.
Hearing this, Crystal quickly moved closer to Harold and said, “Then do you know about him and his ex-girlfriend six years ago?”
Harold paused and looked at Crystal. “Crystal, I’m not you.”
Crystal was confused.
Harold, “I’m not as gossipy as you are.”
Crystal said, “…You can just say you don’t know. There’s no need to scold me. Thank you.”
“I’ve heard some news,” Harold said. “But why should I tell you?”
Crystal immediately frowned. “Just tell me about it.”
She hugged Harold’s arm and shook it. “Tell me!”
Harold pressed down on her head. “If you keep shaking, I’ll be dizzy.”
Crystal was very sensible. She sat up straight, put her arms around Harold’s neck, and kissed him on the chin. “This is the reward.”
Harold pinched her cheek. “Do you know how much others have to pay me if they want to get some. news from me within the industry?”
Crystal covered her ears. “I don’t want to hear the price that I can’t afford.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“I’m in a good mood today. I’ll tell you for free.” Harold leaned lazily on the sofa and said casually, “Six years ago, the matter got quite big. I heard Larry mention it.”
It was said that Alan had a girlfriend in college. She was from a poor family and was an orphan, but she managed to get out of the orphanage and go to the famous university in Hallbury. She was gorgeous and was known as the campus belle in the design department at that time.
Alan filled in the column that he wanted to study Chemistry in the university application form. The Shamus family had cut off all ties with him in a fit of anger, so Alan didn’t look like a rich man in college.
They knew each other when they were working part-time. Alan fell in love with Anaya at first sight. It was probably because he had never been in a relationship in the past 20 years. Once he met someone he liked, he lost all sense of reason.
Alan was irrational, but Anaya was very clear-headed. She had agreed to be with Alan because she
wanted to find a school hunk as a boyfriend to satisfy her vanity, not because she really liked Alan. It didn’t take long for her to get tired of him. Instead, she got together with her classmate, Jared, who was in the same study group as Alan.
Jared was quite generous. Anaya soon fell in love with him. Alan was very sad about this. When Jared was doing the experiment in the laboratory, he caused a fire because of some mistakes. Alan and Jared almost failed to escape. However, Alan’s situation was better. He only stayed in the hospital for a few days, but Jared’s leg was injured by the fire. From then on, he became a cripple. He was expelled from the school because of the significant damage and bad influence caused to the school.
Anaya didn’t abandon him. She probably thought that his family was rich enough to support him. Unfortunately, she had made a mistake.
