Chapter 74 Have Some Self Respect

After the conversation, a strange air descended upon the atmosphere.

Just as Crystal planned to leave shortly, they heard the doorbell ring.

Anna was in the midst of giving John treatment, so she instructed, "Crystal, why don't you get the door."

The moment Crystal opened the door, her face gradually lost all color.

Standing at the door was none other than Robert. With seven to eight cigarette butts littered. at his feet, it was clear that he had been there for some time. As both of their eyes met, the gloominess in Robert's eyes was unmistakable.

Meanwhile, Anna's voice rang out from inside. "Who is it?"

Crystal replied at once, "It's just an insurance salesman." She then headed outside before shutting the door immediately.

Seeing Robert again, Crystal no longer harbored any feelings of the past.

She asked coldly. "What are you doing here? If you're here to visit Dad, you can save it. Don't you think he has suffered enough?"

After throwing the cigarette in his hand on the ground, Robert stubbed it out with his expensive leather shoe before looking up with an intent expression in his eyes. "I'm here to see you, Crystal."

He added, "Let's go back to our old condominium to talk. You still have stuff there which can collect."

Crystal was amused that he had the gall to bring it up.

Previously, she had assumed that the condominium held the best of her memories until she discovered that it was simply poison disguised as candy. Without a moment's hesitation, she rejected the idea. "I don't want them anymore. Just throw them away."

Expecting her response, Robert gulped before replying softly, "You know I won't do that, Crystal. I just can't bring myself to."

"Suit yourself!"

Just as Crystal opened the door to go back in, Robert hugged her tightly from behind and. Inlock succeeded ear, "Don't be so cold, Crystal. You were never like this in the past.

At that moment, Crystal was overwhelmed with hatred for him.

As she struggled free with all her might, she gave him a slap with the back of her hand.

Her words stunned Robert. Despite the injury on his face and the slap he had just suffered, he simply stared blankly at her.

Nonetheless, Crystal showed no sympathy, for she knew Robert like the back of her hand.

Despite his current frustrations, he could not pour his heart out to his fiancée, so he naturally. gravitated back to Crystal.

D*mn it, I'm not a trash can where he can dump all his sorrows into!

After trying her best to calm down, she stated her stance clearly, "Mr. Sloan, going forward, we'll go our separate ways. I've forgotten the past, so I beg you to do the same!”

Staring at Crystal's face, Robert could no longer see the tenderness of the past on it.

During their past relationship, it was Crystal who poured her heart and soul into it, while Robert adopted a lackadaisical attitude. In fact, when the opportunity arose, he broke up with Crystal to pursue Melora. Throughout all this, he never once bothered to explain, let. alone apologize.

He had assumed that Crystal loved him so much that she would be his for life.

Contrary to his belief, Crystal had now moved on, whereas he was the one who was still stuck. in the past.

In spite of that, Robert was a proud man. Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out the condominium's key, the same one Crystal used to have.

Flashing a wry smile, he remarked in a nonchalant tone, "You're right. We should forget. about the past for both our sakes."

Crystal said nothing in response.

As Robert leaned into her, his tone took an insidious turn. "That aside, do

think Henry really loves you? Just read through all the tabloids and newspaper headlines. Since when has any woman managed to capture his heart? On top of that... did he help you after Clementine ruined your reputation? Unlike him, Crystal, I can make a real difference for you!"

At that moment, the feelings Robert had for her grew, as he had never slept with her before.
