Chapter 75
It had been more than 10 years since Corey started taking over the Coombs family when he was 16. He had seen all kinds of people, including the tough ones, the smooth ones, the cunning ones, and the fawning ones. Of course, he had also seen cowards, but it was really the first time for him to see a coward like Crystal.
“It’s a good deal.” Corey raised his eyebrows. “I promise I won’t stab your vital parts. I’ll take care of your medical expenses. You’ll be lying in the hospital for two months, and you’ll get seven hundred thousand dollars. Many people won’t earn such an amount in their lifetime.” Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
Crystal was shocked by the calmness of his words. “Do you not know where to spend your money?” When someone was too rich, they would look for people to stab for fun?
Corey said, “Didn’t you just say that you are short of money? It’s such a good deal. If I tell others the same thing, hundreds of people will come to me soon. Do you believe it?”
Crystal took a cautious step back and said, “I’m afraid of pain. I won’t do it.”
Corey asked, “Is money not as important as your feeling?”
Crystal felt that he was going to take out a knife and stab her in the next second. She ran back to the counter and said, “I will let what happened last time slide. When I am back, I will teach Master White not to blackmail others. Then… do you still want to eat the cake? If you don’t want to eat it…”
“If you don’t eat it, I’ll eat it. The cake and cream that I spent a lot of money on will soon melt!” “I’m eating it,” Corey said coldly.
He was scolded by the old woman for two hours in exchange for such a piece of cake. Why didn’t he want to eat it?
Crystal let out a disappointed “oh”.
Corey picked up a small spoon and tasted it. The taste was surprisingly good. It was not very sweet, and the texture was soft.
When he finished eating a piece of cake, Corey remembered that he was here to make trouble for Crystal, not to eat the cake.
Corey stood up with a gloomy face. Crystal was checking the number of cakes. When she saw him coming over, she asked, “What’s wrong? Do you think that the cake is delicious and are willing to pay for it by yourself?”
“You are so rich. You must buy the most expensive chocolate cake here. Only in this way can you be worthy of your identity!”
Corey said, “I don’t want to buy it.”
“!” Crystal said, “I don’t have the money to buy it for you anymore.”
“I…” Before Corey could finish his sentence, his phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller ID and his expression turned even uglier. He suppressed his anger and answered, “What’s the matter?” “How can you talk to your own father like that?!” On the other side of the phone, Eric scolded, “I told you not to provoke the White family now, but you just didn’t listen. Yesterday, the old woman from the White family came and made your father lose face!”
Corey snorted. “I didn’t know you have face”
“You!” Eric took a deep breath and said, “I won’t argue with you… Your stepmother is not feeling well. I’m afraid there’s something wrong with the child. Come back quickly.”
Corey’s eyes were gloomy. “What does it have to do with me?”
Eric sneered. “Your mother is still in my hands! Don’t think that you’re strong now…”
Blue veins stood out on the back of his hand. He bit the tip of his tongue and tasted the smell of blood. Then, he said, “I’ll be right back.”
Hanging up the phone, Corey looked up and saw Crystal in a panic. Obviously, she was frightened by his hostility. Corey turned around and walked out of the dessert shop with a cold face. Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him. “Hey, wait a minute!”
Corey stopped and saw Crystal push open the glass door and come out. She put a candy in his hand and said, “This is the milk candy for the guest who bought the cake.”
She ran back, leaned against the door frame, and said, “Here you go.”
