Chapter 320
“Forget it?” Eric immediately said, “We can’t just let it go like this! If she wants my son’s life, she should pay the price! No one can stop me!”
Alda frowned and said, “CoCo… Although you pushed me, nothing happened to me. I can forgive you, but he doesn’t listen to my advice… Why don’t we do it this way?”
She said softly, “Apologize to me and then leave Fairby. I don’t think Eric will make things difficult for you.”
Crystal, “?”
“You know very well how you fell.” Crystal said, “You also know clearly whether I should apologize to you or not. As for leaving Fairby… why should I leave?”
“She’s so stubborn!” Eric flew into a rage. “She doesn’t seem to regret it at all. Alda, this kind of person isn’t worthy of sympathy!”
Alda sighed and said, “She was just confused for a moment. It’s not a big deal. Don’t be angry… She turned to look at Corey and said, “She’s someone Corey likes after all.”
It
was fine if she didn’t say it, but it was as if she had reminded Eric after saying it. He said to Corey, “You have to break up with this woman! I can’t tolerate my daughter-in-law trying to harm her mother-in-law! Such a person doesn’t deserve to enter the Coombs family.”
Although Corey didn’t see the whole thing with his own eyes, he knew what kind of person Crystal was and what kind of person Alda was.
It hadn’t been a long time since Alda had taken advantage of the child in her belly to do evil things. “Do you think that everyone wants to be a part of the Coombs family?” Corey snorted and said, “Who cares if you can tolerate it or not? Does it have anything to do with me? I’ve already tolerated you enough. Don’t push your luck.”
Seeing that the father and son were about to argue again, Alda tugged Corey and said, “Corey, don’t argue with your father. We… Ah!”
Before she could finish her words, she was pushed away by Corey. Considering that she was. pregnant, Corey didn’t use too much strength. He just avoided Alda from touching him. “As I said, I won’t fall for your trick. Don’t put on airs as an elder.”
Alda was about to cry. “Corey, I just… just don’t want your relationship with your father to get worse. What did I do wrong to make you hate me so much… Was it actually your idea that CoCo pushed me today?”
Corey said, “…Alda, are you crazy? If I want to hurt you, why do I need to find such an idiot like her to do it?”
Crystal, “?”
Crystal was unhappy. “Why are you scolding me? I was implicated by you!”
She was just here to play with a cat, but she had been pestered by Alda. Now, Corey was actually calling her an idiot?
“Don’t get involved.” Corey pushed Crystal away. “I’m telling the truth.”
Crystal, “…”
She even wanted to carry Peggie out immediately and let the cat bite him.
“Since you said it’s not your idea, then it’s this woman’s own idea!” Eric said, “If you can’t make choice, I’ll help you choose.”
He ordered with a gloomy face, “Ask her to kneel down!”
Upon hearing this, the bodyguard immediately took action. Corey reached out to take out his gun. Eric said sinisterly, “If you stop me today, you can forget about letting Felicia stay alive. I’ll keep my word. You can give it a try!”
Corey’s body stiffened, and the bodyguard seized the opportunity to grab Crystal. Alda held her waist and looked at Crystal’s embarrassed look with great interest. When she looked into Crystal’s eyes, she even showed a mocking smile.
Crystal was shocked.
She had felt that something was wrong before. Alda’s attitude towards Corey was very strange. She should have been very confident since she married Eric and was pregnant with Eric’s child. After all, from Eric’s partial attitude, it seemed that he only treated the child in her belly as his own. According to common sense, if Alda wanted to gain a good reputation and did not allow others to accuse her of not being a good stepmother, then she could just put on an act in front of others. There was no one in the noble circle of Fairby here, so who did Alda show her attitude to?
To Eric, who treated his son as an enemy? There was no need for that. Crystal felt that even if Alda swore at Corey, Eric would only clap and cheer.
In that case, Alda’s attitude towards Corey was very suspicious. Crystal felt that when she was facing Corey… she was even a little cautious.
She seemed to be very concerned about Corey’s opinion of her.
Crystal, who had watched so many dramas, immediately had a bold idea in her mind, but she felt that it was ridiculous.
It couldn’t be… it couldn’t be, could it?
Before she could make up her mind, a strong force came from her shoulder. Two bodyguards were pressing on her shoulder, trying to force her to kneel on the ground so that she could apologize to Alda. Unexpectedly, Crystal was a good-for-nothing. The two bodyguards made a mistake and pressed Crystal to the ground with strong force.
Everyone was speechless.
Everyone was stunned when they saw Crystal lying on the ground.
Crystal herself was also stunned.
She looked at the stone slab in front of her, raised her head, and looked at Corey’s expression, which was difficult to explain.
The bodyguards didn’t even have time to take back their hands. They still maintained their actions and there was a faint awkwardness in the air. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Crystal calmly got up, patted the soil on her body, and said to the two bodyguards, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I didn’t deliberately make you so embarrassed. You are too strong…”
One of the bodyguards said, “I didn’t expect that you didn’t resist at all.”
Crystal said, “I can’t resist so I’ll save my strength.”
She looked around at everyone’s pale faces and hesitated. “Then… then let’s pretend that nothing happened just now. Let’s start over again? I’ll put up a symbolic resistance this time.”
Everyone was speechless.
Corey said, “Do you think this is a movie? What kind of idiot are you?”
Crystal said, “Aren’t you all feeling awkward? I’m being kind.”
Eric tightened his grip on his crutch and said angrily, “Don’t waste your breath here!”
He said to the bodyguard, “I think there’s something wrong with her brain. Throw her into the pool
and wake her up!”
It was Corey’s fault for being so rich. There was a small pond in the garden with some lotus flowers in it. It was right next to them. Crystal looked at the clear water and at the two strong bodyguards. She swallowed hard and took a step back. “Why don’t I kneel down?”
“It seems that in Miss Evan’s eyes, dignity is nothing.” Alda’s face became gloomy. “How can a person like you… be worthy of Corey’s love!?”
Crystal was shocked.
This attitude! This speech! Crystal suddenly felt that she was right. She had seen the truth through their appearance!
“In fact, dignity is also very important…” Crystal coughed. “So…”
She ran away. “I’m going to run away directly!”
Everyone was stunned.
