NovelOnlineChapter 585
Crystal, a well-known figure in City W, was feeding chickens at the moment.
The Haye family had two nests of chickens, and they were all furry. Crystal squatted in the yard,
holding a handful of rice in her hand, and slowly sprinkled it on the ground. The chickens were eating
the rice with their yellow and red beaks.
Dan took out a bunch of bean seeds and dried them. He looked at her for a while and asked, ” Crystal,
when are you going back?”
Crystal turned his head. “Are you driving me away?”
“I’m not driving you away, Dan said, “This is not a place for you to stay.”
He squatted beside Crystal, knocked on the cigarette pot, and said, “In the past few days, the people
brought by the Grecic family have been wandering in the mountains.”
Crystal exclaimed, “What’s wrong?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDan frowned and said, “He came to our village for another purpose.”
Crystal touched the little chick’s head and said, “I know.”
Dan said, “He doesn’t really love you.”
Crystal paused. “Why did you say that?”
Dan said in a muffled voice, “Anyway, he’s not sincere.”
Crystal couldn’t help laughing.
“Crystal, you’d better not be with him.” There was a hint of melancholy in Dan’s eyes. “I’m afraid you’ll
be sad.”
Crystal didn’t know why Dan was so sure that she would be sad if she was with Harold. She smiled and
said, “Dad, he treats me well.”
If I don’t stay with him, where can I go?
“Crystal…” Dan wanted to say something but stopped on second thought. Finally, he sighed deeply and
said, “Forget it.”
“Did you go back to pay your respects to your mother?”
Crystal shook her head.
In fact, she didn’t even know where Chloe had been buried. She had only paid her respects in front of
Chloe’s memorial tablet when she gathered with her family.
“You’d better go to pay respects.” Dan said, “It can be regarded as returning her kindness of giving birth
to you after ten months of pregnancy.”
Crystal guessed that the Evans family members would not allow her to go to Chloe’s grave, but after
listening to Dan’s advice, she still agreed. Suddenly, she remembered something and said, “Dad, why
didn’t I see Roy? He sent me a postcard before, together with a picture of you smoking.”
“Roy?” Dan shook his head and said, “He came back some time ago, but he was in poor health and
seemed to be seriously ill. He said that he has gone to the city to treat his illness, but I don’t know the
specifics.”
“Has it gotten worse again?” Crystal frowned. “Didn’t he say his illness was well controlled?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDan sighed and said, “A few years ago, he could still walk on his own. The last time I saw him, he was
already sitting in a wheelchair, and his face was as white as paper. He looked as if he could be blown
away by the wind… What a pity.”
Crystal pursed her lips and sprinkled all the rice on the ground. The chickens rushed up to grab their
food. Crystal held her chin and asked, “Dad, do you know what happened to Roy’s legs?”
“He wasn’t born like that.” Dan said, “At that time, you were still young. He played games with you and
his legs were fine. Later, he seemed to have fallen into the mountains. By the time the villagers found
out, there was already something wrong with the child’s legs.”
Crystal was a little sad.
Roy’s grandmother was from Sunshine Village. He would occasionally come to live here during the
winter and summer holidays. Although he hadn’t stayed here for long, Crystal liked him very much.
After all, Roy was the most gentle person she had ever seen.
“What are you thinking about?” Dan touched her head. “Anyway, it has nothing to do with you. That’s
his fate.”
With that, he stood up, shook his head, and sighed. “It’s all fate.”
