Chapter 16
Lorna was speechless, her face grimaced. “How dare you talk to me like that!”
Crystal sounded calm, “Miss Carter, this is my husband’s wake, please watch your mouth! Well, if Master White is unhappy, he may come to see you at night…”
She gave the girl a sinister look. “Don’t you know how scary Master White was when he was alive?” Lorna habitually looked at Harold’s portrait.
When Harold White was still alive, she had seen him a few times, but she only dared to look at him from a distance. She couldn’t even see his face clearly. A man like Harold wasn’t from the same world with her.
No one in City W didn’t know about the man’s legendary life.
He was ruthless, and furious. He could kill people without shedding a drop of blood… His horror was even worse than what words could describe.
He was dead now, but his prestige was still there. Those who wanted to divide the White family didn’t dare to make a move.
Of course, Lorna was scared. “Don’t use the dead to scare me. Even if Master White becomes a ghost, he won’t fall in love with you.”
Then, she dropped her last line before leaving, “I don’t think you will have good days here. I’ll wait to see that!”
When it was lunchtime, everyone went to eat. No one cared about Crystal, or they had forgotten her to be exact.
Crystal touched her growling belly. Hmph, the White family was so rich, but they didn’t even feed her well!
She took a banana from the altar. After confirming that no one had seen it, she began to peel it to eat. Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Hey…” A voice suddenly came from behind her, and Crystal was almost choked to death. She turned her head and found Antony standing behind her. She quickly stuffed the half-eaten banana under the futon.
“…” Antony looked at the dab of banana on the corner of the girl’s mouth, feeling a little helpless. “Are you stealing the dead’s offerings?”
Since she was busted, Crystal didn’t hide anymore. She picked up the deformed banana and resumed eating. Antony’s mouth twitched. “Didn’t you just stuff it away? Why did you eat it again?”
“You’ve already seen it. Why should I hide it? I might as well just finish eating it.” Crystal took a few bites, stuffing her mouth with banana.
Antony walked up to her and saw that she wasn’t cultured at all when she ate. He said helplessly, “Why are you eating so fast? No one wants to compete with you. You should keep in your mind that you’re still a young lady of the Evans family.”
Crystal wiped her mouth and said indifferently, “I’m not a young lady. I’m just an ordinary person.” Antony paused for a moment.
He did not know why he had come back to see Crystal. Perhaps it was because of the second look
he had taken at her back when he left. The girl looked so thin and lonely. Those who came to visit didn’t pity her at all. They were all looking at her maliciously. All made Antony uncomfortable. No matter how bad Crystal was, she was still a descendant of the Evans family. People shouldn’t bully her.
“Since the Evans family has taken you back, you’re one of us,” Antony stood beside the girl, crossing his arms in front of his chess, glancing at her. “If you don’t care about your image, people will laugh at the Evans family. Do you understand?”
Crystal nodded in half understanding. ?She reached out to take a tangerine, peeled it and stuffed it into her mouth.
Antony was so mad, pointing at her. “You want to piss me off, don’t you? You only know how to eat! Are these things really delicious?!”
Crystal took a lot of effort to chew the whole tangerine. “It’s delicious. Shall I peel one for you?” Antony rubbed his forehead. This girl was definitely a starving ghost who had just reincarnated. “I want to discuss something with you. Can you send me back to Sunshine Village? If I go home, people won’t gossip about your Evans family,” said Crystal.
“What do you mean by my ‘Evans family’?” Antony pinched her bulging cheeks, “Aren’t you part of us?”
