All Chapters of His Eyes That Pierced Her Heart: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

                 Suddenly, a ruckus was occurring by one side of the banquet hall, people would take a few steps back, afraid of being involved. Crystal raised a brow and strides her way towards the forming circle around the ruckus, trying to get a view of what was happening.              “Get away from me!” A man yelled, prying the woman away who clung onto his chest, trying to get head-to-head with the woman.          “Kiss me!” The woman yelled as she clung onto a man, her eyes could’ve been seen with the expression of infatuation and love. The corners of her lips were drooling as her lovesick expression caused the explosion of gossiping nobles.           Disgust was the only expression

                   After a few moments of following the group, Crystal wanders around the area but still within the group.          She somehow spots Angelica on the second floor’s railings, following along on another floor yet what she seems to be suspicious of, is why Angelica seems to eerily eye her specifically. Perhaps, she must’ve noticed Crystal’s odd behavior or maybe it has something to do with the banquet before?            Regardless, she shook her head and didn’t mind it anymore. The more she minds it, the more it would make it too obvious that she has been bothered by it.            For a prolonged period of time, they were led to another room which was very large, around

               A series of subsequent gasps were what they heard as the concerned females whispered amongst each other.                "He’s not kicking us out, is he?"

Hannah replied, angrily in return, though in a whisper.            "Be quiet, he’s looking at us! Have some dignity!" another maiden in blue scolded the other two in a low tone.

             Crystal was taken aback from that. She didn’t really expect that Janice would show her true self in such a small amount of time. Like literally only 5 minutes after her façade. She expected that Janice would make another act of pity or keep the pretense up at its finest, but she released the cat out of the bag so fast.        It seems that she didn’t see the point of keeping her façade any longer. Especially, if people aren’t around to witness something they wouldn’t want to witness.        But Crystal was unfazed, shady businesses and beneficial partnerships aren’t always clean. It seems that she must’ve promised partnerships with other maidens as well, to escape the predicament of being involved with the mishap earlier.    

         “N-no! it’s a misunderstanding!” Janice yelled as her eyes widened in sheer surprise. She instinctively released Crystal from her tight hold to face the old maid who wore a sneer over her expression.      “Misunderstanding? Did you really think that I was born yesterday?! You were about to hit her!” Pristine shouted as soon, other maids got a whiff of the issue and stood alongside or behind Pristine.       Crystal got a brief understanding of the situation before pushing Janice away and hurriedly running towards the Maid’s aid with tearful eyes.      “Ms. Pristine! She wanted to hurt me!” Crystal spoke in an anxiously fearful manner.  Her pitiful, shimmer
