Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 179

Chapter 179 Nothing To Do With Each Other

Audrey gazed at her.

The latter had an elegant green dress on and looked good.

The sight of that infuriated her greatly.

Why does she look so good even though Henry has dumped her? How could she still live so happily and even win an Outstanding Youths Award? I’m going to wipe that smug look off her face! (1

“I heard you won an award, so I brought you a special gift!” she began gently.

The secretary served them some coffee.

“That’s very thoughtful of you, Miss Quinn,” Crystal responded while sipping on her coffee. “But I don’t believe we are that close for that, are we?”

Hearing that, Audrey took a knife out of her pocket.

“I’ll leave some of my blood here for good luck,” she remarked with a look of insanity in her eyes.

Madison rolled her eyes.

“If you’re going to die, don’t do it at someone else’s place! Besides, Henry isn’t here, so there’s no precious Rh-negative blood to save you. Take your funny business out of here with you!”

Crystal remained calm as she stared at Audrey, who fell into a daze and smiled.

“Henry refuses to see me, so I had no choice but to come here. Tell me, what would he think of you if I were to keep cutting myself and tell the cops that you deliberately hurt me?”

“Whatever he thinks of me is none of my business, but this is your life, Miss Quinn. If you don’t treasure it, no one else will.” Crystal knew that Audrey would never dare take her own life.

There was no way such a self-centered person would want to die.

Audrey was like a little girl wanting to reclaim a piece of candy she had thrown away, whereas Crystal was a victim of the emotional strife between Henry and her.

With a curve of her lips, Audrey began to swipe at her wrist with the knife.

While doing so, she made a phone call to Joshua. “Dad, Crystal’s hurting me… Come and save me! I’m bleeding so much…”

Then, she called the police too, hoping they would come and take Crystal away.

I’m going to ruin you, Crystal. Outstanding Youths Award? To hell with that!

It didn’t take Joshua long to rush over with a few police officers.

Audrey instantly threw herself into her father’s arms. “Dad! All I wanted was to talk Crystal into making up with Henry, but she cut me with a knife and asked me why I’m still alive!” she cried.

Joshua embraced the woman, his gaze complicated. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Nothing To Do With Each Other

Then, he turned to Crystal. “Is what she’s saying true?”

Crystal peered at him.

You’re asking if she’s telling the truth? You obviously believe her. Ha! Just a while ago, you threw yourself in front of Mom’s grave and wouldn’t stop calling her name. Why are men’s love so shallow?

She lowered her gaze.

Thankfully, she had no intention of acknowledging him as her father, lest she end up getting disappointed again.

“Well, we’ll go by the evidence,” she commented emotionlessly.

“The wounds on my hands are real,” Audrey insisted meekly. “I have no reason to come all the way here to frame you, Miss Winters. In fact, I wanted to forgive you for Henry’s sake, but you’ve gone too far this time. I know you hate me, but I never thought you’d try to kill me!”

“Apologize to Audrey, Crystal. If you do, I’ll convince her not to press charges,” Joshua urged in a low

voice.

Madison lost it at that moment.

“Hey, Mr. Quinn, are you out of your mind? If you have a lunatic in your household, keep her at home so she doesn’t go around biting others and get herself locked up!”

Her heart ached as she knew about the relationship Crystal and Joshua shared.

Joshua Quinn, you’re nothing compared to Mr. Winters!

John had raised Crystal with love and care She had never been ill-treated. When she was still in university, he would head over with an umbrella to pick her up whenever it rained. There was even a time when the gates were flooded, and the fifty-year-old man carried her on his back to class.

All the other girls in her class envied her for having a father like him.

Madison wanted to say more, but Crystal stopped her right there. “There’s no need to do this.”

She then turned to the police officers with a smile. “I have surveillance cameras equipped with microphones in here. Today, Miss Quinn decided to cut her own wrist and frame me for hurting her. She’s mentally unstable and a criminal. With this evidence, I hereby sue Audrey Quinn for defamation.”

The secretary handed the surveillance footage over, and the men watched it right away.

Audrey’s face clouded over. “You’re so full of tricks, Crystal! You set me up!”

“Silence!” Joshua roared at her.

He was truly anguished, for he had never expected Audrey to do such a thing. She may be a little spoiled, but she’s always been a good girl! How could she frame Crystal like that?

Feeling a lump in his throat, he turned to Crystal. “Let’s discuss this.”

Having grown up privileged, Audrey was extremely willful.

“What is there to talk about, Dad? All you have to do is give her some money. That’s how you get a beggar
