“Please don’t worry about seeing me out!” Charlie, dressed in a stylish shirt and carrying his suit jacket,
exuded an air of wealth and sophistication. Crystal’s heart raced in her chest. While she
knew some wealthy individuals at her company, none could compare to someone like Charlie, a true ari
stocrat. Standing by the door, she hoped to bid farewell to Charlie as he departed.
Suddenly, Carson appeared and beamed, saying, “Charlie, let’s leave together!”
Charlie smiled and nodded, replying, “Let’s go!”
Crystal had to step aside, watching the two of them pass by, feeling a sudden sense of disorientation.
“Crystal!”
Crystal swiftly turned her head, asking, “Huh? What’s going on?”
Gina inquired with concern, “You guys arrived early this morning and probably haven’t had breakfast ye
t, right?”
Crystal smiled more gently than usual, “We already ate, thanks, Mom!”
She went into the house, eagerly pouring water and getting fruit for
Emily, “Emily, tell me what you want to eat, and if you need to use the bathroom, I’ll help you!” Seeing
Crystal’s gentle attitude, Emily was touched, thinking that maybe she had overthought things the last ti
me they moved.novelbin
In the
afternoon, after Estelle finished her class, she came to visit Emily. Crystal greeted her warmly and busi
ed herself with serving tea and pouring water. Estelle peeled an orange for Emily and said softly, “Your
sister–in–law seems quite nice!”
“Mmm,” Emily’s condition had improved significantly in the afternoon, “My mom took care of me all nigh
t last night, so I sent her home for some rest. My sister–in–
law insisted on staying to take care of me even after sending my
brother off to work. I might have misunderstood her before.”
“After all, you’re family!” Estelle smiled lightly.
Emily nodded with a smile.
As they were talking, someone knocked on the door. Crystal went to open it and saw a woman wearing
a hat and mask outside, who had already been there the night before – Ms. Yvonne.
She hurriedly opened the door, and said with a smile, “Please come in!”
Yvonne entered with a bunch of flowers in her hand and removed her mask, then said with an elegant s
mile, “Emily, are you feeling better?”
Emily immediately replied, “I’m feeling much better now. Thank you for coming to see me, Ms. Yvonne!”
It was only then that Crystal realized Yvonne was a big star, and her eyes widened in surprise. She cou
ldn’t help stealing glances while pouring water.
Upon noticing the abundance of flowers on the table, Yvonne chuckled. “Did Charlie and Carson alread
y visit? I had a magazine photo shoot today, so I woke up at four in the morning to do my makeup and
have been occupied until now when I finally had the chance to come over.”
Emily expressed apologetically, “It’s alright if you’re busy, I’m fine. I’m actually getting discharged tomor
row!”
Crystal interjected with a firm tone, her expression serious. “That won’t do! You have multiple injuries,
and the doctor advised a minimum hospital stay of ten days.” Yvonne also agreed, “Yeah, focus on reco
vering before getting discharged. There’s no rush.”
After a while, Yvonne continued, “Emily, my aunt, Nora’s mother, was very angry and full of guilt after le
arning about this. She feels terrible and wants to come to the hospital to see you. Can she visit? I didn’t
directly agree, I wanted to ask for your opinion first.”
Emily hesitated, her mind
going back to the events of the night before, and fear took over her. She replied softly, “No need, I don’t
want to see anyone related to Nora for now.”
