Chapter 142 I Do Not Mind

Crystal froze.

“It really is the relative’s child, huh?” Emelia smiled.

Confused, Crystal asked a few more questions to which the receptionist answered dutifully, “Yes. It’s the mother who brought the kid. She’s a pretty girl.”

Crystal hung up and turned to Emelia, who seized the chance to gossip. “Say… could it be a child Henry had when he messed around in his twenties? Is he sending the kid over on purpose because you got into a fight with him?”

Crystal was not sure if she should laugh or cry.

“He isn’t someone who’d do something like that,” she said, only to be shocked by it.

Since when do I know Henry so well?

“I’ll go out and take a look.”

Crystal walked over to the reception room with Emelia tagging along hoping to see some drama.

As soon she pushed open the door, she was taken aback.

The description of a mother with her kid was right, but it was not what Crystal had expected. The person seated on the couch was the wealthy Julia and Melora.

Crystal was bereft of speech, but she still sat across from them gracefully. “What brings you here, Mrs. Miller?”

Julia looked deeply troubled.

She was worried sick about her son, yet he was not living up to her expectations. The moment she found out he and Crystal had fought and broken up, she had no choice but to get involved.

Softly, she said, “Henry told me you established a music center, and I’ve always wanted to visit. It’s any talent in really amazing as I expected.” She pulled Melora to her side. “Melora doesn’t have music, so I’m thinking of sending her here to cultivate her skill.”

Melora instantly threw her mother a glare. Mom! I passed grade ten when I was ten!

Julia was unaffected by her daughter’s reactions. Her gaze on Crystal only grew more affectionate. “It was Henry who recommended your music center, but this is what I want. Crys, you wouldn’t cut all ties with me because of Henry, would you?”

An uneasy feeling bloomed in Crystal’s heart, and she quickly exchanged glances with Emelia.

Emelia was so engrossed in the drama that she had no intentions of intervening,

Crystal had no choice but to handle the situation on her own. “Mrs. Miller, we only accept kids aged sixteen and below,” she said politely.
