Chapter 13 Is This How Wretched You Are?

Under Seth’s insistence, Crystal took him to the hospital.

Seth was quite good at tormenting people. He merely suffered a minor injury, but he ended up staying at the hospital for over two hours.

It was already 9.00PM by the time he sent Crystal home.

Crystal was in a terrible mood, but she still apologized to Seth nonetheless. “I’m so sorry for getting you involved today, Seth.”

Meanwhile, Seth’s feelings were more complicated than hers.

He thought that he would have a chance after Crystal and Robert broke up, but Henry stepped in instead.

Even though Henry looked proper, he had undressed Crystal with his eyes not long after he arrived. Seth wasn’t blind, and he had noticed that.

He didn’t dare fight with Henry out in the open.

The Millers had the highest reputation in Barnwood, and Henry was a powerful man as well. Even though Seth was serious about Crystal, he didn’t want to risk his entire family for the sake of a girl.

Seth turned to look at Crystal and said jokingly, “Crystal, if we’re still single after a few years, you should consider me.”

With Henry’s hints, Crystal could more or less guess what Seth was thinking.

She didn’t want to harm him.
