Chapter 357: I Should Buy More
“My kiss is so disgusting for you?” He stared at her deeply, holding her hand against his face, “Don’t forget, I am the child’s father, the person with whom you will spend your life together in the future.”
“...”
“You must get used to me as soon as possible and accept me. Otherwise, you will only suffer alone.”
Crystal couldn’t pull her hands out, so she turned her face away. But he pinched her chin again and forced her to look at his eyes.
Crystal stared at him angrily with wide eyes.
Eric said in a soft voice, “You finally stop crying?”
Crystal then realized that her anger had completely overwhelmed her sadness, and her tears had dried up.
“It seems that this is really the fastest way to stop your tears...” He hooked up his red lips and warned, “If I see you cry again next time, I will kiss you hard.”
Crystal bit her lower lip tightly, why did she think that he was intentional?
Did he say it just to keep her from crying?
“Crystal, me, Eric, promise here, I will give you all the happiness.”
Eric’s usual frivolousness faded away from his face, “It is said that the child will be affected and become more sentimental if the pregnant mom cries too much.”
“Do you really care about this child?” Or Just for convenience to threaten her later. “I not only care about the child...” He paused for a moment, “I also care about his mom.”
Crystal had no energy to distinguish if he was telling the truth or not, “Can you go out first? I need half an hour to calm down.”
“I will wait for you on the lawn, let’s bask in the sun together.” Eric said stubbornly, “Our child must grow up in the healthiest way.”
“Get out.”
“If you don’t come out in half an hour, I will have no choice but to invite you out.”
Hearing the door closed, Crystal quickly ran into the bathroom to rinse her mouth.
The cold water splashed on her face….
She looked at her swollen eyes in the mirror, suddenly remembering Nathan’s words, [From now on, once you see your face in the mirror, you will think of me. This is my revenge against you!]

In the afternoon, a jewelry store.
A black private car came across the lane, followed by four bodyguard cars.
The long luxury sedan stopped in front of the store, and a driver in uniform immediately came down to open the door.
Inside the car, it was equipped with luxurious internal facilities, which made the receptionist at the entrance of the store very envious.
Crystal put on sunglasses and got out of the car.
“Hello... May I help you, Miss?” Crystal was tall, wearing a luxurious fox fur coat. She put the watch on the counter, “I want to repair this watch.”
“Repair this watch? But we are a jewelry store...”
“I know, but this jewelry store belongs to the Brilliant Group, so only you can repair this watch.”
For repairing this watch, she went to three watch shops.
The last jewelry shop had told her that the logo of her watch was from an international brand, the Brilliant Group’s craftsmanship.
“I accidentally disassembled the watch, and all the parts inside fell apart. I don’t know if any of them are missing... Can you find the same parts and fix it?”
Crystal didn’t have much hope, but she wanted to have a last try.
This was the only thing that she had about Nathan, which was of great commemorative significance.
Even if they had broken up, she still wanted to keep it well.
More importantly, Nathan had spent so much effort on this watch. She didn’t want it to be broken.
The clerk carefully checked the watch’s style, workmanship, and logo, which really looked like the Brilliant Group’s craftsmanship.
But this watch had no model number, nor had it ever been sold on the market.
Soon, the clerk said apologetically, “Sorry, Miss. I can’t find any information about this watch.”
Crystal was disappointed.
This was designed by Nathan especially for her, of course, there was no model.
He had said that it was unique in this world.
The salesgirl was confused, “Perhaps it’s a high-imitation good?”
Nowadays, high imitation goods are so well-made that it’s hard to distinguish.
“Actually, we’ve launched a lot of new styles recently. They’re genuine articles made by the Brilliant Group. There are styles mounted with diamonds, rubies, and...”
“Thanks, but I’m not interested in other watches,” Crystal interrupted with her last patience, “though it’s not of the same style as the other watch, it’s from the Brilliant Group, so it must be made with similar parts, I think. Isn’t it?”
“But it’s not genuine goods from our company...”
“What if I pay ten times the price? Can you fix it?”
“Ten times the price?” The salesgirl doubted, “The price of our watches are all of the different levels, which price do you mean?”
Crystal took a glance at the counter, pointed at the middle watch.
“This one.”
The watch she pointed at was one million dollars, and ten times it was ten million dollars!
Now that she can pay such a high price to fix the watch, why doesn’t she just buy another one?... The salesgirl wondered.
However, for Crystal, what’s most valuable is not the watch itself but the significance of it. Moreover, she also believed that the watch must be worth more than that.
Nathan never gave her cheap presents.
“This watch must be significant to you, Miss.”
“It means a lot to me.”
“I got it. Now that you offer such a high price, I can totally have our store manager notify the design team of the Brilliant Group and ask them if there’s a solution.”
The salesgirl then asked Crystal for contact information and told her to wait for the news.
The store would keep the watch for the time being, and Crystal needed to make a 30% advance payment now.
Crystal took out a bank card, which was a supplementary card given by Eric. Since she became Mrs. Bush, she had never used a penny in it, though.
After swiping the card on the machine and inputting the amount, a message would be automatically sent to Eric’s cell phone.
Without suspense, a few minutes later, her phone rang in her pocket.
Crystal answered the phone. “Darling, are you shopping?”
Crystal was not used to spending Eric’s money.
She hurried to say, “I took a fancy to a piece of jewelry... I’ll return the money to you in the future.”
“We’re husband and wife, stop saying that to me,” he was a little disappointed but immediately adjusted his mood and asked, “why not buy a few more?”
“I’m glad that you’re finally willing to spend my money,” Eric added.
“Are you nuts? Is it something to be glad about...”
“I’m responsible for making money, and you’re responsible for spending money,” Eric giggled, “if you don’t spend my money, I have no incentive to make money.”
“If you say so, I should buy more.”
“Sure! Darling, just buy whatever you like.”
