Luke opened the iron art doors, and the wind wafted over the sweet fragrance of flowers. Crystal recognized it was the Murraya flowers.
Harold grabbed the hood of Crystal’s jacket, urging, “Let’s go.”
Then, he led her into the villa. The place was decorated with only three cold colors, including black, white, and grey. Because there were not many decorations and furniture, it even looked more spacious and empty.
Harold threw his jacket on the sofa. Seeing Crystal looking here and there curiously, he asked, “Have you had dinner yet?”
Of course, Crystal hadn’t had dinner.
“Get someone to bring us some food.” Harold sat on the sofa and rubbed his brows. “Tell Luke what you want to eat.”
Luke said, “If we order the delivery, the food will arrive in about an hour. Ma’am, if you are hungry, you can have some fruit first.”
“An hour?” Crystal rubbed her stomach and felt that it couldn’t wait for an hour. “Is there any ingredients in the kitchen? I can cook some myself.”
Harold now remembered that Crystal was different from those delicate, well-bred young ladies in this city who had learned the art of musical instruments and tea ceremony. This girl had learned how to feed poultries and cook.NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.
“There should be,” Luke said. “Every few days, someone will come to supplement fresh ingredients.” Crystal went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator. Sure enough, it was full of food. She went out and stood by the door, looking at Harold. “Master White, did you have dinner?”
Harold had gone straight to the Pina Garden from the meeting. Of course, he hadn’t eaten anything yet. He replied, “I haven’t.”
“Then I’ll make a few more dishes.” Crystal said as she walked back into the kitchen. Soon, the sound of running water could be heard.
Luke then turned to Harold, “Sir, the meeting over there…”
When they received the news that Corey had taken Crystal away, the high-level managers meeting was about to come to a crucial part. However, after receiving a call, Harold directly left the room. At this moment, all the managers were still sitting in the conference room with confused and curious faces, discussing what was more important to their boss than this meeting.
“Connect me with them through the phone.” Harold took a sip of water and suddenly looked at Luke. “You knew Mark has done this.”
Luke paused for a moment. “Yes… I knew, but he’s your uncle after all, so I’ve turned a blind eye to many things.”
Harold said blandly, “You don’t have to give him face for this kind of thing.”
…I got it.” Luke connected the meeting call and said, “If there is such a thing in the future, I will stop
him.”
“Yeah,” Harold didn’t say anything else.
In the kitchen, Crystal quickly made three simple home-cooked dishes, including stir-fried tomato and scrambled eggs, beef and fries, and egg soup. She took the dishes out and put them on the dining table. Standing beside the sofa, she looked at Harold hesitantly.
“… Yes, I mean, I’ll give that lot of land to Corey.” Harold glanced at Crystal and said, “That’s all for today. My family’s waiting for me to have dinner.”
Before everyone had time to feel the shock, he hung up the phone then stood up, “Let’s eat.”
When Crystal heard him say “my family,” her ears turned red. She looked away and told Luke, “Why don’t you join us, Luke?”
Luke always had good senses. He glanced at his boss then said, “I still have something to deal with in the office. Thank you for your kindness, ma’am, but I have to skip it.”
“You can eat before…” Crystal persuaded.
Harold grabbed her hood and walked towards the dining table. “He’s on a diet. He won’t eat dinner.”
“…” Luke smiled. “Yes, ma’am. I need to lose some weight.”
