Chapter 317
For some reason, Crystal was asked to stay in the Pina Garden for dinner.
At the dining table, Alda smiled and said, “I haven’t asked your name yet.”
Crystal opened her mouth and said, “My name is CoCo.”
Corey glanced at Crystal, but his expression didn’t change.
CoCo?” The corner of Alda’s eyes twitched as she said, “This name… sounds good. Not bad. CoCo, how old are you?”
Crystal said, “I’m thirty-two.”
“!” Alda was shocked. “You’re older than Corey? You don’t look like you’re older!”
Corey also looked at Crystal. “?”
Crystal remained calm and said, “Maybe I look younger. You don’t look like you’re in your fifties. Your look like you’re in your early 40s at most.”
Corey, “… Pfft.”
Alda gritted her teeth and said, “I’m only 25 this year!”
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry.” Crystal said, “I didn’t do it on purpose.”
Alda took a deep breath and adjusted her emotion. “It’s okay… CoCo, are you from Fairby? Are you working here?”
“I’m not from Fairby. Alas, I’ve been working hard in Fairby for more than ten years, but I have never really belonged here. I always wanted to settle down in Fairby, so I found a man from Fairby to get married to. As a result, he was a liar, and he was not from Fairby at all. I was so angry that I divorced. him…”
Alda paused for a moment. “… You’ve been married?”
“Yes.” Crystal said, “More than once. My second husband was addicted to gambling and lost all his property, so I divorced him again. The third time, I found an honest man, but who knew that he
cheated in the end…”
Wait a minute.” Alda could no longer maintain the smile on her face. “Have you been divorced. three times?”
Crystal nodded. “That’s right.”
Alda looked at Corey in disbelief. “Corey, your girlfriend…”
Corey leaned back in his chair, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. “I like this kind of girl.”
Alda was speechless. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
Alda was so angry that her face turned green.
“Well. Do you look down on me because I’m a divorcee?” Crystal asked nervously.
“Of course not.” Alda put on a fake smile. “It’s good as long as Corey likes you. We won’t interfere in
this.”
Eric sneered from the side “I thought you have very good taste for choosing to stay single over the past few years, but you’ve picked such a good-for-nothing.”
Corey raised his eyebrows. “We’re the same.” D
Eric was speechless.
Both of them were mocked at the same time. Alda pursed her lips and glanced at Corey. Unwilling to accept this, she asked Crystal, “CoCo, how did you and Corey get to know each other?”
Crystal sighed. “It’s a long story. I looked for jobs everywhere after my third failed marriage, but I only finished kindergarten and never pursued further studies, so I couldn’t find any good job. I could only go to Corey’s company to apply to be the cleaner. As a result, I was shortlisted!”
Alda’s facial features were about to turn ferocious. “… cleaner?!”
“That’s right!” Crystal said, “Their company pays the cleaner a monthly salary of 900 dollars.”
“One day, when I was mopping the floor outside, I met Corey.” Crystal said in a vivid voice, “As soon as he saw me, he lost his mind and swore that he would marry me. I was scared. After three failed marriages, I decided not to find another man again. But under Corey’s passionate pursuit, I still fell in love with him in the end…”
Crystal clasped her hands together and looked at Alda sincerely. “Just like your husband who loves you deeply, I also fell deeply in love with Corey!”
Alda, “…”
