Chapter 389: You Didn’t Sleep Well Last Night?
The bodyguard knelt on one leg and pressed his hand on the ground to report, “It should be Master Davis.”
“It’s him again.” Eric was not surprised, as if Nathan had been making trouble in many ways recently.
The soup in Crystal's hands was almost unstable, and the open door was moved by the wind, making a creaking sound.
When the bodyguard came in, he forgot to close the door.
Eric looked up and met Crystal's eyes.
Crystal saw that she couldn’t hide anymore, she opened the door with her shoulder and walked in with the tray, “I made some soup for you….”
Eric nodded and waved his hand. The bodyguard, who was kneeling on the ground, got up and retreated.
Eric’s serious face changed into a relaxed smile, “Darling, I can’t believe that you will make me the soup by yourself, I’m really flattered.”
He got up personally, took the tray, and placed it on the table.
“Darling, don’t do this kind of dirty work yourself. What if you fall?” He turned around and held her hand.
Crystal unnaturally took her hand back, “What were you talking about just now? The operation failed? Did the cosmetic surgery fail?”
Eric frowned slightly.
“It’s Nathan?” Crystal shook her head, “I don’t believe it.”
“After we came back, he opposed me in many ways.”
“How do you know that it’s him against you? Not someone else?”
“Don’t forget that I can check it, not to mention that he didn’t want to hide it.” Eric picked up a small empty bowl and filled half of the soup, “He did openly.”
“Why did he do that?”
“Jealous.”
“He is jealous?”
Eric smiled magnetically, “Because I am happier than him.”
Crystal pinched her fingers, “He doesn’t need to be jealous at all. He can be happier.”
“But he is jealous of me - he is jealous that I have you.” Eric declared a cruel fact.
With Nathan’s extreme character, he could really do it....
“Take this first.” Eric gave her the bowl and picked up another small bowl for himself. Such a large bowl of soup was definitely enough for them.
How could Crystal be in the mood to drink soup now, “It’s really him?”
“Why should I lie to you? Apart from Nathan, do I have other mortal enemies? No one dares to provoke me.”
Sure, only Nathan and Eric dared to pluck each other’s heads. How would anyone else dare to provoke them? They were too late to dodge them.
However, Crystal could understand why Nathan was against Eric, but she couldn’t understand why Nathan had to hinder the operation.
Mrs. Bush was innocent....
He knew that she had begged him for this matter.
Did he deal with her indirectly?
“Honey, the soup will be cold if you don’t drink it.”
Crystal's face looked very bad.
“Are you okay?”
“Eric, don’t you understand the consequence of his hindering the operation?”
Crystal finally couldn’t help asking.
He could refuse to help, but how could he even add fuel to the flames?
How could Nathan do so? “You could not believe it,” Eric said with a cold expression, “But he has always been cruel. Believe it or not, it is your freedom.”
“...”
“You can think whatever you feel more comfortable... I didn’t plan to tell you this. It’s because you’ve eavesdropped on what you shouldn’t that you feel very uncomfortable.”
Crystal's mind was in a mess.
“Well, don’t think about it. I will find a way to deal with my mother’s affairs.” After a pause, Eric said, “I have good news for you.”
Crystal was completely absent-minded.
“Carlos’ treatment is very successful, and he will be sent home tomorrow.”
Crystal finally looked a little better.
“But his situation is not very stable yet, I believe that he will get better soon.” Eric arranged her hair, “Are you happy?”
Crystal couldn’t believe it and asked, “The treatment is very successful, and he will be sent back tomorrow?”
“I set him in the country to recuperate. You can visit him now.”
This was the only good news in recent days.
Crystal let out a sigh of relief, and Carlos finally got out of control.
Eric did not break his promise to her. He had really given everything she wanted...
How could she still be unsatisfied? What else was she still asking for?
“In that case, should you drink the soup and rest earlier?”
Crystal nodded numbly, finished the soup in one breath, and turned away numbly. Just as she was about to walk out of the door, Eric stopped her, “After Carlos’ affairs are finished, we can go abroad to settle. What do you think?”
“Going abroad?”
“If you want to stay, I have no opinion.”
“Well, it’s good to go abroad...then let’s go abroad.” Crystal's shoulders shivered slightly, “As long as it’s not here, it will be fine.”
Eric smiled softly, “Have a good rest.” As long as she was not in Nathan’s sight, she could go anywhere.
She wanted to leave, stay away from him....
In this way, they would no longer have any
chance to meet again.
Nathan leaned in the bathtub. The mist was rising.
There was a beautiful face faintly in the mist...
He held a ring tightly in his palm.
This was given by the servant when he left. It was in the room where Crystal had slept in the vineyard.
Also, a torn silver chain was given to him.
[The day after you left, I found it after I cleaned the room.]
Nathan clutched the ring fiercely.
Just by looking at it, he knew whom the ring belonged to.
Nathan hooked up the corner of his mouth and sneered. The sentence’ pain in the left hand and happiness in the right’ made him angry like a fire.
She kept wearing the ring, always reminding herself how terrible it was to meet him?
The crazy fury burned in his body as if it were about to explode.
That was his love that had been accumulated for Crystal, all turned into a fire of hatred.
He suffered in the hell of resentment while she and Eric were bathed in the heaven of love. Why should he leave the pain to himself and let them live better?
After returning to Huston, he would definitely launch a series of revenge since he knew that Eric would let people have the cosmetic surgery in order to treat Mrs. Bush, how could he make it smooth? How would he let them live happily?
At this moment, his mobile phone rang by the luxurious bath.
He picked up the phone lazily and pressed the loudspeaker key.
Vic’s voice came, “Young master, Master Bush’s cosmetic surgery failed.”
Nathan’s pupils dimmed and shrank for a while, soon a kind of comfort after revenge spread all over his body.
He paused for a moment and ordered Vic to go to the manor on the Isolated Island to find the watch he had thrown away.
If he found it, he could know the location of Crystal.
There was a positioning system in her bracelet!
The cruel color condensed in his pupils, Nathan shook the liquid in the goblet as if tasting blood.
In the Manor on the Isolated Island.
The waves crashed against the rocks.
There was a tightly wrapped sketchbook lying in the crack of the reefs. Although it had been soaked in seawater for a long time, blown by the wind and beaten by the rain, it was still intact. Everything was like fate, just waiting to find its owner…

Crystal looked haggard in the mirror. She had cried last night and suffered from insomnia all night. Her eyes were very swollen.
If Carlos saw her like this, he would definitely be worried about her. She didn’t want him to worry about her.
She wanted to show that she was very happy and let him recover in peace.
“Young mistress, what kind of makeup do you want today?” The servant combed her hair, and the makeup artist adjusted the makeup palette.
Crystal's eyes dimmed, “A little thicker, I want to look more energetic.”
“Yes.”
“You didn’t sleep well last night?” Eric’s voice suddenly appeared above her head.
