Chapter 151
Crystal smiled. “This is a good thing. Don’t cry. If your father sees it later, won’t he be sad again?”
She patted Alissa’s shoulder. “Everything will get better.”
“…Yes.” Alissa wiped her tears and said, “Everything will get better.”
She looked at Crystal and said, “I think you are really a very strange person.”
“Hmm?”
Alissa said, “I feel warm standing beside you.”
Crystal asked, “Could it be that my body temperature is higher?”
Alissa was speechless.
She shouldn’t have said anything sensational to Crystal.
Alissa’s parents worked for the government and were decent people. They were very gentle to Crystal.
Crystal chatted with the two old people for a while, then went out of the ward with Alissa and told Alissa

Although Bernard was worried that his mother would be worried, Crystal felt that she should let. Alissa
know about this.
“…What did you say?!” Alissa was shocked. “You said that Bernard… but Bernard has never told me.
about it…”
Crystal said, “He’s afraid that you’ll worry about him. Bernard is too sensible. Leland transferred to
another school and Mr. Beardsley was dismissed. Bernard said that the other children in the
kindergarten are very good. Don’t worry.”
“…Thank you.” Alissa sobbed. “If it weren’t for you, I really wouldn’t know when I would find out about
this… When I find out, it’s all too late…”
“It’s okay.” Crystal said, “It’s good for Bernard to be sensible, but if he keeps too many things to himself,
it will affect his growth. You should communicate with him more.”
“I got it.” Alissa took a deep breath. “I will.”
After a pause, she looked at Crystal. “Why did you come to my dessert shop to work?”
After all, Alissa was nearly 30 years old. She had more social experience than Crystal. Who was Mrs.
Bowles? Even Mr. Beardsley was partial to her. There was no reason for the principal to suddenly
speak of justice. In this world, there was no such thing as justice.
To be able to make such a domineering person like Mrs. Bowles admit her mistake and even get the
principal to fire Mr. Beardsley, the power behind Crystal was absolutely unfathomable. Why would such
a girl be willing to work in her dessert shop and earn a monthly salary of 500 dollars?
Crystal looked confused. “I am working because I’m poor.”
Alissa was speechless.
Alissa said, “Even if I take out all the money Caleb gave me, I wouldn’t be able to buy the dress you’re
wearing.”
Crystal, “?”

Was it so expensive?!
Crystal stared blankly at Alissa. “No way!”
Alissa said, “… You didn’t know?”
“… I didn’t.” Crystal said honestly, “I’m wearing this dress because it’s white.”
Considering that she was going to say goodbye to CoCo in the morning, she specially chose a white
dress from the wardrobe. It would not be painted with a very eye-catching white fur by CoCo, which
would make people suspect that she was a zoo staff and cause unnecessary misunderstandings.
Alissa asked in surprise, “Who bought you this?”
Crystal thought for a moment and said honestly, “My fiancé.”
Alissa said, “… You’re about to marry into a rich and powerful family, but you still want to work. You
said that your fiance is stingy, but he’s willing to buy you such expensive clothes. I don’t understand.”
Crystal said painfully, “It’s not my fiancé’s fault. After all, he is dead.”
Alissa, “…?!!!”
