Chapter 123
Every time, Crystal would be shocked by Harold. In his eyes, money was really just a currency symbol, and he didn’t care about it at all.
“They don’t treat you well?” Harold suddenly asked.
Crystal said subconsciously, “They do. I…”
When she said this, her eyes turned red again.
“Crystal.” Harold called her name. Crystal mumbled an ambiguous ‘hmm’. Harold suddenly leaned over and placed his hands on her waist. He picked her up and placed her on his lap.
Crystal had the steering wheel on her back. From the window of the car, she could still see pedestrians coming and going. She was shocked. “What… what are you doing?”
Harold’s facial features were much more profound than most Asians. His nose was tall and straight, and the tip of his nose leaned against Crystal’s delicate neck. His voice was very hoarse. “You can just admit it if they don’t treat you well. Why are you lying?”
Crystal’s nose twitched and tears fell one by one. She hugged Harold’s neck and cried, “They are not good to me at all… I don’t like them… I don’t like them at all…”
She cried so hard that Harold’s collar was almost wet. He patted the child’s back and said, “Then why did you lie?”
“Oh… I will be locked up.” Crystal sobbed and said, “When I was a child, our teacher asked me if my grandma often hit me. I said yes, and my grandma locked me in the woodshed for three days. It was too dark. I’m afraid…”
Harold frowned. “Three days?”
“Sob sob sob…” Crystal’s crying voice became hoarse. “Moreover, no one would believe me…”
No one believed her. Perhaps, even if they knew that she was having a hard time, they wouldn’t have the time to care about her.
Most people in this world were like this. It was none of their business. It was just human nature. There was nothing wrong with it.
