Chapter 285
I thought I ought to deal with the Tanners’ affairs by myself and didn’t wish to give Darius any trouble.
Moreover, I knew very well that Natalie would keep throwing tantrums until she could see me. As such,
I didn’t want her to keep disturbing the patients in the nearby VIP wards.
Instantly, Natalie flung the door open and stomped into the ward. She grabbed my cor and bellowed,
“Yvonne, tell me where Crystal is now. Is she still alive? Say something!”
Deep down, I couldn’t help but admire Crystal. Although she had lost her father at a young age, her
mother cherished protected her at all costs.
Suddenly, someone rushed up to me and pushed Natalie’s hands away. “Mrs. Tanner, please behave
yourself.”
I felt touched to see Darius standing up for me. Even though I was lying in the hospital, he stayed here
and continued to protect me.
“Natalie!” Nathan pulled his sister to the back, for he knew that they had to behave themselves before
Darius.
However, the woman ignored him and shrieked insanely, “If my daughter is already gone, why should I
care about anything? Yvonne, tell me where Crystal is. Did you leave her on the deserted ind?
You’re a wicked b*tch! How could you do such things to your own cousin?”N?velDrama.Org copyrighted ? content.
“Yvonne, can you tell us whether you left Crystal on the deserted ind? Is she dead or alive?” Nathan
chimed in coldly.
I heaved a sigh quietly. Although I had lost my vision and was wrapped in thick bandages on the bed,
my dad was only concerned about Crystal. He did not care about me.
As I couldn’t hold in my dissatisfaction, I lifted my hand to show them the bandages and asked, “Dad,
are you not worried about me? I’m badly injured now.”
“You’re alive and well, aren’t you? On the other hand, Crystal is still missing. Don’t be childish and tell
us where she is now,” Nathan sneered.
I snickered and replied in disdain, “Lyle was also rescued, wasn’t he? Why don’t you ask him? I believe
he knows perfectly well where Crystal is.”
When Christopher and I were rescued, Lyle had been right beside us. Given that Darius was kind-
hearted, I believed he also ensured that Lyle received treatment in the hospital. Nheless, sorrow
would weigh down on the man for a long time; his psychological pain was worse than his physical
injury.
“Lyle said he doesn’t know where Crystal is. He is badly injured and has just woken up. Since you guys
were together, are you telling me that you have no idea too?” Nathan questioned in a deep voice.
Meanwhile, Natalie reached out a hand to p my face but was stopped by Nathan halfway. As such,
she only pointed her finger at my face and yelled furiously, “If you don’t tell us, I’ll send you to heaven
to meet my daughter. Don’t ever think you can stay alive if she’s dead!”
At that time, I admired Crystal even more for having a mother who protected her so well. When I was
on the ind, I used to dream about my young and beautiful mother.
“Crystal left in a cruise ship owned by a foreigner before we left the deserted ind. By the way, it’s a
Jetroinian ship. She might be alive and kicking and is about to visit you.”
“Impossible! If what you said is true, why didn’t you board the ship with her?” Nathan red at me as
though he was interrogating me.
Iughed contemptuously and answered, “The owner didn’t allow injured people to board the ship.
What do you think is the reason that Lyle was still on the deserted ind? Since you always imagine
that I secretly killed Crystal, I wonder if that is because you always imagine killing me.”
“Shut up! Is this how you’re supposed to talk to your own dad?” Nathan fumed, his face flushed.
“I’m speaking the truth. Back then, several survivors boarded the ship and left. Feel free to find out the
Jetroinian ships which entered the sea area. Your precious daughter and niece might have returned
before you get the information.”
