Kalen was stunned. “Full Court restaurant?”
Full Court restaurant was not just a little far away.
Marcus looked at him quietly. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” Kalen hurriedly said, “I’ll call the boss and make a reservation.”
When the car started, there were fewer and fewer people that came into Crystal’s eyes. Crystal looked at the mountain ridge outside the window. Marcus explained, “Full Court restaurant is built halfway up the mountain. It’s an investment of a friend of mine. He likes mediocre, so the restaurant is remote.”
Crystal replied with an “oh”. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Marcus frowned and said, “Don’t you like me?”
“No,” Crystal said softly.
Marcus smiled. “We’ve just met, so we’re not familiar with each other. That’s normal. Are you getting used to everything in Fairby?”
“I’m fine,” Crystal said.
Marcus saw that Crystal was not in a good mood, so he stopped talking.
Full Court restaurant was indeed very remote, and it was nearly 10 o’clock when they arrived at the
place. Fortunately, Kalen made a reservation in advance, so they could dig in as soon as they arrived at the place.
-Marcus did not lie. The food here tasted good.
“Thank you for your help today.” Marcus raised the cup containing the mint water and said, “Otherwise, I really wouldn’t know how to end this show.”
“It’s nothing.” Crystal raised her glass and clinked it with his, saying, “It’s just a small matter.”
“It’s a small matter you, but it helped us a lot.” Marcus smiled. “You know how to embroider. I’m really surprised.”
“I’ve learned a little.” Crystal buried her head and ate.
Marcus didn’t eat much. He looked at Crystal stuffing the food into her mouth like a baby. There was no expression on his face, but when Crystal looked up, there was a gentle smile on his face. After dinner, Marcus looked at the sky and said, “The weather is good tonight. Shall we take a walk? It’s good for digestion.”
Crystal ate a little too much just now. She blushed and said, “Okay.”
Obviously, Marcus often came here. He was familiar with the way and led Crystal down the mountain. They took small paths and walked around. Soon, Crystal was dizzy and did not know where she had gone.
“… Let’s go back. I’m a little tired.” Crystal turned her head and said, “And…”
Her voice stopped abruptly.
Marcus was nowhere to be seen.
She panicked. “Marcus?!”
There was no answer.
Crystal looked around, but there was still no one.
Fortunately, she was a firm materialist. Otherwise, she would have been scared to death if she stayed in the forest alone.
Crystal bit her lower lip and took out her phone to make a phone call. Only then did she realize that she had left her phone in Marcus’s car.
Crystal was at a loss for words.
Fortunately, there was a street lamp. Crystal followed the light and walked out of the forest. When she reached the road, she found that it was a three-way intersection. She only had a one-third chance of returning to Full Court restaurant if she walked along the road.
Great, Crystal thought.
She was left here by Marcus.
Crystal definitely wouldn’t believe that he didn’t do it on purpose.
One day, when she really had a bad guy card, she would definitely send a truck to Marcus.
Crystal squatted on the side of the road pitifully. The street lights pulled her figure very long, and she looked small under the street lights. People who didn’t know it would think she was some wild animal.
“How could Marcus be so bad?” Crystal thought.
The temperature on the mountain was low, and when the wind blew, it was piercingly cold. Crystal shrank into a ball, and the more she thought about it, the more aggrieved she felt.
Tears of grievance dripped down her cheeks.
Marcus… How could he be so bad?
She had clearly helped him.
