Chapter 499


    Not only Antony, but Marcus also noticed that there was something wrong with Danny’s mood. However,


    he didn’t care about it. He leaned against the side like a spectator with a fake smile on his face, but Dora


    didn’t have time to care about it.


    Under normal circumstances, she would definitely be a considerate little girl tofort Danny in order to


    please him. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, she was the glorious Fourth Miss of the Evans family, but


    only Dora knew how she was like treading on thin ice in the family.


    She looked at Crystal, who stood beside Harold and was praised by countless people. She was already


    burning with jealousy, not to mention that someone nced at her from time to time and gossiped about


    her with a strange expression.


    Even if she couldn’t hear them, Dora knew what they were talking about.


    “Is she the fake daughter who took over Crystal’s ce?”


    “Didn’t you say that she’s very doted on? Why isn’t it her chance to marry into the White family?”


    “Compared to Fifth Miss… she doesn’t look like a child from the Evans family either.”


    “If I I were Master White, I would also choose Fifth Miss. No one has ever mentioned the marriage


    between the two families before. It should be that Master White has not taken a fancy to her, right?” “Did


    he invite her to this banquet just to humiliate her?”


    Dora clenched her teeth and her fists.


    She really wanted to rush over and scold those people for having no taste. Who was Crystal? Was she


    qualified topete with her?


    But she couldn’t.


    This was the White family’s ce, not a ce where she could make trouble. She couldn’t rush out


    without any manners, which would make peopleugh at her in vain.


    Especially that b*tch Crystal.


    Wasn’t she trying to irritate her by keeping such a high profile? She wouldn’t be fooled!


    Harold brought Crystal through the crowd and introduced a few people to Crystal from time to time.


    Those who were introduced by Harold were all real influential people in Fairby, and most of them were


    old people. Crystal was the kind of child that the old people liked. She would address them by the names


    that Harold told her. Her voice was so sweet and soft that it could melt people’s hearts. After one round,


    Crystal collected a lot of heavy red packets.


    Although it was now very popr to have a card or cheque, the old people cared about the sense of


    ceremony, so they gave a lot of cash. Each red packet was very heavy, and Crystal also liked cash. She


    took a red packet and bowed to the old man. The little crown on her head was crooked. Harold raised his


    hand to adjust the crown on his wife’s head. Thinking of something, he said, “I have a bigger pink


    diarnond. It’s of good color and purity, but it’s too big. It doesn’t look good if it’s made into a piece of


    jewelry. Take it if you like it.”

    Crystal’s eyes immediately lit up. “Is it bigger than the one on the crown?”


    “It’s a lot bigger.” Harold said, “It was obtained by chance at the auction a few years ago.”


    Crystal felt that the diamond on the crown was already very big, but Harold had an even bigger one.


    Indeed, poverty had limited her imagination, but…


    She narrowed her eyes. “You don’t like gems either. Why would you buy them?”


    Harold felt that Crystal had made great progress. If it had been in the past, she would probably have only


    been happy to see the bigger pink diamond. But now she had learned to ask him such a question.


    “When I was young.” Harold recalled and said, “My mother told me that I should keep some assets for


    my wife. Gold is too vulgar, so I stored gems.” Crystal rarely heard Harold talk about his mother.


    She said slowly, “I don’t think gold is vulgar.”


    “Especially when it’s made into gold bars.”50
