Chapter 337Once Crystal answered the phone, an elevated voice came from the other side of the phone instantly.
“Crystal, didn’t I tell you to pick Mr. Larson up? What are you doing? Why is Mr. Larson standing alone
outside right now and blocked by the guards? Do you even know how to get things done?”
The storm of abuse had got Crystal’s eyes watering.
Since she was a kid, she had always been grandpa’s favorite, which meant she had never been
scolded by him.
But this time, she got scolded right after the call was connected and it almost got her crying.
“Grandpa, w-what’s wrong? I sent someone for him but he rejected it. It wasn’t my fault! Besides, w-
what have I done that you need to yell at me like this? I’m your granddaughter,” Crystal sobbed.
“Shut up! Stop with all the nonsense! Go to the entrance and fetch Mr. Larson in, right now! And
remember, entertain him well,” Mr. Harrison reprimanded and hung up the phone.
Crystal was confused. She never knew that her Grandpa, the one who loved her the most, would scold
her like this for an outsider. Not even once in her dream!
Some of the kids nearby had also heard the conversation and Annie snapped, “What’s the matter with
this dude? Talking behind your back to your grandpa? How disgusting! Urgh, I hate backstabber!
What’s the big deal if we didn’t pick him up? Besides, didn’t Lucas give him money for the taxi? Is he
trying to set his feet on my brother’s car? That car is worth about two million! Did he think that we
would let him ride it? How dare he backstab you for trivial things like this? Is he even a man?”
With the same expression, Lucas flung out, “Urgh, bastard, how cunning! He looked so friendly when Isaw him just now. I thought he was kind and honest. Never have I thought that he is so shameless!
Huh, backstabbing? Crystal, fear not, I’ll go down right now and give him a lesson!”
Waving her hands, Crystal instantly said, “Forget it. Grandpa has never been angry at me. If he was so
mad, it must have meant that this guy is really important. Please stop causing trouble now. If this goes
big and grandpa snaps at me again, we would all be in trouble!”
Glancing at the others, Annie frowned and uttered, “I wonder who this guy is? Even your grandpa could
scold you for him? Crystal, what is happening? Why is your grandpa trying to pair you up with him? Is
he someone your grandpa knew when he was in the countryside back in the days when he was short
of money? He might be the kid of someone from the countryside! If it’s true, you’d better be careful!
What if you guys were engaged when you were kids? Lucas said that guy was poor and gross. He
even tried to backstab you! You will be suffering if he clings to you.”
noveldramaHelplessly, Crystal hollered, “I don’t care who the hell he is. For now, I’m going to listen to grandpa and
pick him up. Can he ever cling to me? Huh! In his dreams! I’ll never go out with some guy like him even
if all the men in the world are dead!”
Upon hearing that, Annie giggled, “Of course you won’t! You are the legendary campus belle. What
happens if Young Master Hughes falls in love with you at first sight tonight? It would be interesting if we
could compare them later tonight!”
Crystal waved her hands and said, “Enough, stop making fun of me. You guys just wait for me right
here. I’ll come back once I’m settled with him.”
