Harold’s fingertips paused and his lips curved into a smile. He accepted Niannian Le’s friend request.
Seeing that Harold had accepted, Crystal did not send him a message. After all, he was in a
meeting. How could he earn money if he did not work? How could he support his family if he did not make money?
Harold put the phone back on the table, and the senior executives quickly withdrew their curious eyes, pretending that they had been listening to the speaker’s grand long-distance plan.
Crystal added Alissa as a friend and asked her how she was doing. Alissa said that everything was fine. Caleb was still being detained and there was no way he could find trouble with her.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. Dana came out of the kitchen and was about to open the door. Crystal put on her slippers and said, “I’ll go.”
When she opened the door, she saw a girl standing at the door.
She was about the same age as Crystal. She was wearing a tailored and delicate dress. Her facial features were beautiful and her makeup was exquisite. When she saw Crystal, she immediately showed a bright smile. “Hello! You are my sister-in-law, right?”
She reached out her hand and said enthusiastically, “I’m Stacie.”

Crystal thought for a moment and asked, “Are you Master White’s sister?”
“That’s right.” Stacie said, “I’m from the second branch.”
She was Kimberly’s daughter, but from the looks of it, she didn’t look like Kimberly at all.
“Hello.” Crystal said politely, “Is there anything I can do for you?”
Stacie said with a smile, “Assistant Britton called grandma and said that he took you to Flower Land. I haven’t seen you before, so I came to see you.”
The security of Flower Land was very strict. If someone wanted to come in, they must have the authority given by the head of the family. Since Stacie could come in, she should have a good relationship with Harold. Crystal wanted to get out of the way. “Come in and have a seat.” “Thank you, sister-in-law.” Stacie’s mouth was very sweet. She said with a smile, “I just came back from abroad and I don’t have many friends here. I feel that you’re very friendly. Are you 19 this year? When is your birthday? Let me see which of us is older.”
Stacie was so familiar with her that Crystal was not used to it. She pursed her lips and said, “My birthday is in the winter.”
“Then I’m a few months older than you,” Stacie said, “I’ll be celebrating my 20th birthday next
month.”
Crystal replied with an “oh” and poured her a glass of water.
Stacie looked at her and said, “Sister-in-law, in fact, you don’t have to be afraid. Although grandma has a bad temper, we will treat you as a family since you’re married to my brother.”
Crystal thought for a moment. Kimberly would probably feel that it would be better to die than to treat her like a family.
Before she could say anything, Stacie tactfully changed the subject. “Sister-in-law, you’ve just come here. You are not familiar with this area yet, are you? Why don’t I show you around?”
Confused, Crystal asked, “Do you often come?”
Of course, Stacie didn’t come here often. With Harold’s bad temper, how could he allow others to wander around in his territory? However, after coming here a few times, she remembered the general layout. She could still take Crystal around. She said with a smile, “When my big brother was still alive, we were quite close to each other, so I came to Flower Land quite often.”
Crystal nodded. “Alright then.”
Stacie took Crystal to walk around the villa. When they were on the balcony on the second floor, Crystal found that there was a back garden behind them. However, it was different from the garden in front. There were many trees and there were no precious plants.
“Sister-in-law, do you want to have a look?” Stacie said with a smile, “The pet raised by the eldest brother is right behind it.”
Harold’s pet… The cat!
Crystal said, “Let’s go and have a look!”
