Chapter 724
Marcus's car was parked at the gate of Flower Land. Perhaps because of the heavy rain, the whole City W looked
clear and clean. Even the misty sky was now a little bright blue. The trees planted along the roadsides, which were
usually covered in dust, had been thoroughly washed by this rain and were now spotlessly clean.
Crystal opened the door and got in the car. Marcus glanced at her and asked, "Where is the draft?"
Crystal patted her bag. "Here."
Marcus didn't say anything more and started the car engine. Crystal looked at him several times, and Marcus said,
"If you have anything to ask, just say it."
"Your dark circles are so heavy. Did you do something bad last night?"
Marcus sneered. "I went to commit murder and arson."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCrystal replied with an "oh" and paused for a moment. "Really?"
"What do you think?"
Crystal muttered, "If that's true, I'll definitely report you to the police even if you're my own flesh and blood."
Marcus said, "I didn't expect you to have such a high level of consciousness."
Crystal was very happy. "Of course."
Marcus said coldly, "But you are sitting in my car now. If you don't want to be thrown away on the spot, shut up."

Crystal was silent for a while, and then she couldn't help saying, "I think you are very gentle to others. Although you
don't like me, I've watched the news about you. You can talk gently to a fan that once wanted to stab you to death,
but why are you so fierce to me?"
She felt that the draft in her bag was a life-saving talisman. Finally, she asked the question that she had been
confused about for a long time and was sure that Marcus would not kill her because of it.
Marcus was silent for a while. Unexpectedly, he was not angry. Instead, he laughed and said, "I just hate you. Do I
need a reason?"
If Crystal had heard these words before, she would have definitely been sad. However, now she was a tough
woman. She had suffered a lot and she no longer paid much attention to it. She said, "All right, I understand."
She sighed. "You hate me so much but we are brother and sister. I feel sorry for you."
Marcus was speechless.
The car arrived at the Kyla family's residence.
No one knew where Helena heard the news from, but she had been waiting at the door for a long time. When she
saw Crystal, she didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, she smiled and said, "Miss Evans."
Crystal didn't have a good impression of her. She just nodded perfunctorily. Marcus looked at her indifferently and
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsaid, "Don't simply address her when you go in."
"I know." Helena smiled and said, "I won't let Madam Kyla know the true identity of Miss Evans."
If Crystal were sensitive to Helena's words, she would likely have been provoked by those words. However, Crystal
didn't see anything worth provoking between her and Marcus, so she didn't understand Helena's comment. She
simply said, "Let's go inside."
Marcus ignored Helena and walked inside with Crystal.
Madam Kyla was currently confused and insisted on eating cake, but her body could not process large amounts of
sugar. The servants were all stopping her, and when Marcus entered, it was as if they saw a savior and said, "Mr.
Evans, please come and persuade Madam Kyla!"
Marcus walked over and half knelt in front of the old woman. He held her hand and said softly, "Grandma?"
Madam Kayla only glanced at him once before she broke into a smile. "Oh my, it's Marcus. You're here? Quick,
quick... bring over all the pastries that he likes. By the way, that cake of mine..."
"Grandma," Marcus said with a smile. "When I was young, you always taught me not to eat too many sweet things,
didn't you? It will give you tooth cavities. You should eat less sweet things."
