Dora's smile grew a little sincere.
Daxton said that she was the host and Crystal was the guest. His meaning could not be more obvious.
Whether it was because he didn't remember Crystal's appearance that he didn't care about Poppy, or because he saw the resemblance between Poppy and Crystal, he still didn't care, which made Dora very satisfied.
"Don't worry, Dad." Dora acted like a spoiled child. "I will definitely entertain my friends well."
"Mm," Daxton responded and was about to let them play by themselves. However, Crystal suddenly raised her head and looked at Daxton. "Today is the birthday of the Master. As a junior, I have prepared some slight gifts. Please accept them."
Daxton said neither coldly nor warmly, "Many thanks."
He asked the servant to take the small wooden box from Crystal's hand. He had no intention of opening it to have a look.
That's right. The gifts that the master of the Evans family received today could be piled up in the living room, so he naturally didn't care about the gifts of a nobody.
Crystal smiled. She did not understand what he meant.
Perhaps because the crystal light was too dazzling, she felt that her eyes were a little sore.
She and Dora walked to the side, letting Daxton continue to chat with others. After walking four or five meters, Crystal suddenly turned around.
Daxton stood tall and straight across the crowd, surrounded by a lot of people. The expression on his face was polite and distant. Standing there, he looked like an insurmountable mountain.
Crystal remembered that two years ago, this man thought that she would implicate the reputation of the Evans family, so he drove her out of the Evans family without hesitation. Two years later, he was still so heartless and cold-blooded.
As a result, she felt that she was becoming more and more ridiculous.
"... ah." A voice suddenly sounded in her ear, and Crystal was held by someone. "What are you thinking about? You were so distracted that you almost hit a pillar."
Hearing this familiar voice, Crystal's hand trembled and she instantly raised her head.
An elegant face came into view.
She wore a light green dress, which made her look as gentle as spring water. There was some worry in her limpid eyes. "Miss?"
...Sadie.
Crystal unconsciously opened her mouth, but she couldn't make a sound. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
It turned out that when she saw her old friend again, she couldn't be as emotionless as she used to be.
"...Miss Ramsey!" Dora came back in a hurry. "I was wondering where you went. What's wrong with you?"
When she saw Sadie, she quickly said obediently, "Eldest Sister-in-Law."
Sadie nodded and looked sideways at Crystal. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Crystal forced a smile and said, "Thank you."
"You're welcome." Sadie said softly, "Be careful in the future."
Crystal nodded.
Compared to two years ago, Sadie looked a little better. Although her face was still pale and she looked as if she could be blown away by the wind, Crystal could tell that she was in better health.
"Eldest Sister-in-Law," Dora asked. "Why are you here alone? Where's Eldest Brother?"
"He's talking with someone else," Sadie said. "You know, he's very busy with his work."
"No matter how busy he is, he can't leave you alone. It's too dangerous," Dora said. "You have to get the servants to follow you closely. If you were to enter the hospital like last time, how worried would Big Brother be?"
"Got it." Sadie's smile faded a little. "You haven't introduced your friend to me yet."
"Oh." Dora smiled and said, "She is Poppy. I like her style of design very much, and I think we are very fated."
"Poppy," Sadie repeated the name again and smiled. "Hello, I'm Sadie."
