Chapter 34
Logan’s family was the royal lineage of Country S. As the descendant of a noble, he was in charge of the family’s affairs. He was also a big shot in his country. But in the face of Harold, he could only humble himself and thank the other. “I have always remembered your kindness, Master White. As for the reason, I don’t know, and I don’t dare to inquire…”
At that time, there were many competitors trying to get that lot, and most of them were nobles like Logan. However, Harold only valued his family.
Harold’s slender fingers knocked on the table again and again. Crystal was still eating crab meat. She was petite with a large appetite. Her eating etiquette wasn’t elegant, but she looked so cute. He put on a faint smile. “What I value is your sober mind. You’re a smart man.”
“To be honest, I hesitated when I received the news of your death, but I don’t think you are an ordinary person. You won’t die so easily.” Logan said.
His words were quite true. Harold preferred the people like Logan who wouldn’t just flatter him suspiciously.
Luke stood at the side. When he saw that both parties had almost finished speaking, he placed a document in front of Logan. Seeing it, Logan could hardly hide his surprise.
Luke said, “Mr. Logan, this is the contract we’ve prepared. If you have no objection after reading it, you can sign it.”
It was the contract Logan had always dreamed of. He didn’t even need to read it, signing directly. With that piece of land in Country S, his family would grow stronger day after day. If they cooperated with the
White family, there would only be benefits and no disadvantages, as long as they showed their absolute loyalty.
Luke collected the document. “Congratulations on becoming a partner of the White family.”
After the contracted was signed, Crystal finally finished eating the big crab. She picked up the wet towel next to her to wipe her hands, but found that she couldn’t get rid of the oil on it, so she said to Harold next to her, “I need to wash my hands.”
“Go ahead, the waiter will take you there,” Harold said.
Crystal nodded and got up, following the waiter to the washroom.
While she was washing her hands in front of the sink, a familiar face appeared behind her. “You are Crystal Evans, right?”
Crystal raised her line of sight and saw that it was Claire. The woman was assessing her from top to toe flamboyantly. NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Claire was tall and slender. Standing next to her, Crystal looked so petite. “Yes, what can I do for
you?”
The woman’s tone was unfriendly. “I know you. You’re the young daughter the Evans family had abandoned in the rural village. No wonder why you’re so short and dirty. Do you think you are worth being Master White’s wife?”
Crystal looked at herself in the mirror. Dirty? “I’m not as bad as you said, am I?”
Claire looked at her with disgust. “Do you think you’re perfect? Look at you. People dressing like you
can been seen everywhere on the street. Your taste isn’t refined at all.”
Crystal said calmly, “It seems my style is popular now.”
Claire didn’t expect her to say that. “Humph, you feel good about yourself. It’s terrible for a person like you to stand beside Master White. I’ll tell you this. He won’t fall in love with anyone.”
After thinking for a while, Crystal said, “But Master White likes me very much. Otherwise, why does he always feed me well?
Claire was enraged. This bumpkin dared to talk nonsense to her! “Don’t lie. A man as high and mighty as him will never like you!”
Crystal was confused. “You said that he doesn’t like me. Do you mean he likes you?” She looked at the woman with concern. “I’ve recognized it. You like Master White. But he doesn’t like you. One- sided love is really torturing, don’t you think!”
