As Nathan stepped out of the room, Crystal took the opportunity to peek into his more personal belongings. She looked around. This room that Nathan lived in had initially been a guest room in Crystal's home, and the patterns of black and white tones had not changed. Nathan had few personal belongings, she noticed. There was a book and a pen on the coffee table, though, which was something.
Crystal leaned over, picked it up, and was disappointed to discover that it wasn't a diary or journal. The title on the book's jacket read: Howard's Amazing Adventure- and according to the back cover, the book told the story of an alien rabbit that had accidentally broken into the earth. Crystal picked up the book, turned a few pages randomly, and finally put it down indifferently.
Nathan had walked out to the balcony, and Crystal tried to read his body language. He was in a state of deep concentration, and it seemed like it would be safe to rummage through some of his even more personal things. After making sure that he wasn't looking, Crystal opened the top drawer of his dresser, where she found a transparent plastic bag filled with some paper documents and receipts. Crystal did not see anything that might be useful to her.
After closing the top drawer, Crystal then pulled open the bottom drawer, where she found a red diary. Crystal gasped, and her heart began to beat fast. Then, after hesitating for a moment, she opened the journal.
The yellowed paper was filled with delicate handwriting that she recognized immediately as belonging to her Mother!! Before she could read more than a few words, she heard Nathan returning, and she closed the book, acting as if she hadn't recognized it for what it was. Nathan stood above her and, looking down probably down my shirt, she thought he asked her. "Do you want to sleep together tonight?"
"No," Crystal replied. After putting the book away, she stood up and said, "I'm going back to my room."
"Have it your way," Nathan said, and he
began to laugh as she fled into the hallway.
Once Crystal was back in her room, she closed and locked the door behind her, and then she leaned against it and exhaled deeply, thinking - I am safe now.
Crystal had always been a level-headed girl, so she didn't know what was wrong with her recently or how Nathan was able to get under her skin so easily. It is probably because his aura is too strong-she thought wearily - if you let your guard down before you know it, he will have his sharp fangs in you.
Crystal thought back on the situation in Nathan's room, and she didn't understand why she had left without her Mother's diary. In retrospect, her intuition told her that it must contain the information she wanted. I must get it- she realized- If I go back tonight, though, he will definitely think I want to have sex with him…
But she had missed such an excellent opportunity just now, and there shouldn't be another chance tonight.
In an attempt to distract herself, Crystal sat down with her phone and used W******p to start a video chat with Serenity, and after exchanging pleasantries, she said, "Serenity, you are such a slut, how dare you send me such a gift? Nathan saw it, and now I'm about to die from embarrassment. All because of you!"
When Crystal thought about the vibrator, she couldn't help thinking about how Nathan's prick had felt when he'd pressed it against her, and her body burned with an inexplicable heat that seemed to start in her groin and spread out to every other part of her body, making her limbs feel weak and her thoughts hazy.
Serenity: "Embarrassed? Why are you so embarrassed? It's not a shameful thing to have. Everybody uses them, and once you try one, you will know why! Look at your face, though, It is so red. Why is that? Is Professor Davis on your bed?"
"Shut up!" Crystal hissed. "Nobody is on my bed. My face is red because I am angry. Your gift almost got me assaulted tonight!"
Serenity frowned. "I just sent you some masks," she said. "Why are you so angry? How could a couple of masks get you assaulted?"
"What are you talking about?" Crystal shouted.
"I'm talking about the masks that I sent you," Serenity replied. "What are you talking about?"
Crystal rushed to her dresser, picked up the vibrator, and waved it in front of the camera. And when Serenity saw it, she laughed. "With such a handsome man in the house, the real thing! I can't imagine why you would settle for a toy. Where did you get it?"
Crystal: "Didn't you send this to me?"
Serenity: "Absolutely not. I don't even use one of them on myself, so why would I give one to you?"
Crystal: "Well, if it wasn't you, then who?!?!!?"
Serenity shrugged. "How should I know? But when you do find out who sent it to you, what will you do?"
Crystal: "I will fuck him!"
Serenity laughed again. "And what if it is Professor Davis?"
Crystal: "Then I will let him play for us."
Serenity: "Oh, girl, you are so evil. I love it!" After happily chatting with Serenity for a long time, Crystal ended the call. It was late, and she was tired. She got up and began to get ready for bed, but as she was braiding her hair, she was struck with the realization that if Nathan moved out the next day, he would take her Mother's journal with him, and she would never see it again. No way am I letting that happen! - a voice in her mind argued so... I guess he can't move out until after I have the diary. It shouldn't be too hard to get it. I could pick the lock on his door while he's away or hides in his closet. Or, if worse came to worst, I could negotiate with him for it...
These were the thoughts that followed Crystal into her dreams and kept her tossing and turning all night long.
The next day, when Crystal came down for breakfast, Nathan was already sitting at the head of the table in the dining room. And to the right of him, there was a man in a black suit. The stranger was standing over Nathan, slightly bowed, and he was handing a document to him. From the way that the stranger carried himself in Nathan’s presence, it was apparent to Crystal that he was subordinate to him.When Nathan heard Crystal’s footsteps, he looked up from the papers and ordered her to join him at the table. Once she was seated, he introduced the man in black to her. “This is Mike,” he said. “Mike is my lawyer. Say hello to Mike.”Suddenly Crystal felt like a child, which, she supposed, she was, at least as far as these men were concerned. Her cheeks turned pink, and she looked at her shoes. “Hello, Mike,” she said
“All you want is to fuck me?” Crystal asked skeptically. “And then you will forgive my debt?”“No, not just fuck,” Nathan laughed. “I want you to give yourself to me, fully, as my wife!”Crystal gasped as Mike produced a marriage certificate. Nathan had laid a much bigger trap for her than she could have ever imagined. Crystal contemplated the proposal for a moment before addressing Mike, his lawyer. “I only have two questions,” she said. “The first question is this: if I sign it, does it mean that I don’t need to pay my debt?”Mike: “Yes. And your second question...?”Crystal: “Okay, I haven’t reached the legal age for marriage yet, so even if I sign it, it won&rs
Before today, Nathan had been completely confident that every woman in the world would want to marry him if they were given the opportunity. He had good looks, popularity, and money. What more could a woman want? - he wondered. The sight of Crystal crying on the lawn had thrown him for a loop, and nothing about the things she’d said had made any sense to him - But maybe Andy knows a little bit more about this than I do - he thought - After all, he’s been married for a year!Nathan eyed Andy impatiently as he waited for an answer. Finally, Andy said, “There... There are many reasons why a woman wouldn’t want to marry some
The Henry household lived in an independent villa with a big courtyard, and when Crystal arrived, the European-style patterned iron door was tightly closed to her. After taking a deep breath, Crystal put her hand on the doorbell, but before she actually pressed it, she found herself hesitating. Το press it or not to press it, that was the question. She would not be here except for the fact that her father had said that her mother had left something important for her.None of the people living inside the villa had a good relationship with her. Her father hadn’t even picked her up after her mother died. Her Stepmother, Jessica, had been the reason why her father had abandoned her and her Mother. Her half-sister Joyce had stolen her boyfriend, and Evan was Jessica’s son from her first marriage, so they weren’t even related by blood. Out of all of them, she hated Evan the least. T
Crystal had always sat behind Carlos in class, so this was a familiar view of her. In the self-study classes, they had worn the same style of headphones, and Crystal had often stared at the back of his head for the whole class, with no sense at all of the passing time.Crystal looked away in disgust, and when Joyce saw that she no longer had an audience, she quit performing. After a few minutes, she looked at Crystal and said, “I heard that you almost got kicked out of school. yesterday” she laughed. “If it weren’t for Daddy’s money, you would be long gone. Isn’t that correct?”Unlike Joyce, Carlos was a little embarrassed by the situation, and now that the two girls were talking, he nudged Joyce back onto the couch, and his cheeks turned pink as he covered his pants with a pillow. Joyce patted the cushion playfully and
Crystal was taken by surprise, and she was bewildered. She looked at Lucy, the housekeeper, and said, “Who would come to see me, HERE?!?!?”Lucy: “I’m not sure. He didn’t say. He has a lot of belongings with him, though. He brought a coffee table, a sofa, and all kinds of famous brand bags and cosmetics like Chanel, Dior, and Louis Vuitton….”Upon hearing that there was a guest - a stranger! -in his house, and that it sounded like he thought he was moving in, Todd stood up quickly and rushed into the next room, with Crystal, Carlos, and Joyce following right behind him. And as Todd turned the corner, he gasped. “Principal Ford,” he whispered, “what are you doing here, and what do you want from my daughter?”
After Mr. Ford left, Crystal’s Father confronted her about the true identity of Nathan Davis. He believed that because she had signed away her rights to his fortune, that there must be something about him that she wasn’t saying- and Venessa’s constant grumbling only made matters worse. She had assumed that the expensive handbags that Mr. Ford had brought were for her, and it had been hard for her to watch when he’d taken them away with him. After all, there was one bag in particular that she had wanted for a very long time.As she and her Mother watched Crystal leave from an upstairs window, Joyce complained to her mother, saying, “Mommy, did you see how arrogant that bitch was? Who would have thought that the presents would be for her! And that Principal Ford must be a fool, otherwise why would he have begged Crystal for help! After all, what could she do for him?!?!?”
Carlos stepped forward to hug Crystal, but she stepped backward. She gave him a look of disgust and said, “Did you honestly think that I would wait for you?”Carlos flinched at her words as if he’d been struck. “I know that my proposal is very selfish,” he mumbled, “but why are you so hard on me? Is it because of Nathan Davis? Are you two serious? I know you’re not actually together. You just want to make me jealous, right? Crystal, an unreliable man like him, is not suitable for you. He will never take you seriously!”“He’s unreliable?” Crystal hissed. “Compared to you, he is a saint!”Carlos’s face turned white as Crystal’s words sunk in, and he finally let her arm go, and when Crystal walked away from him, he made no further
