Chapter 171

 The Truth About The Past Crista stared at William in shock. "You, you..." "What? Did I ever let you come into my study as you please?" Glancing back at her, he picked up the medical test report from the floor. Crista stared at the empty coffee cup. 'How could I expect him to fall into my trap?' She had put two sleeping pills into the coffee, but her plan had failed. "What the hell are you doing here?" William asked. All he wanted from her was an honest response. "Why do you have this?" Crista asked back as she showed him the drug. William just looked at her indifferently. "Are you not aware of my business dealings yet? Why bother asking such an idiotic question?" Of course, she knew. But he had never taken drugs himself, had he? This specific drug could make  people addicted to it even with a milliliter of dosage. "You should never try this." Crista kept the syringe away from him, and added,

Deep Hatred Crista nodded. "Would you mind letting me talk to him for a bit?" In all honesty, sometimes, she had no idea how to face her problems. "Be my guest," William replied as he opened the door for her. Upon seeing Crista approach him, Lewis threw away his cigarette. "Chica," he greeted. "Lewis, what are you doing here?" She tried to force a smile, which ended up looking unnatural. "I was worried about you, so I dropped by." Lewis had been worrying about Crista for so many days. He wondered what William might’ve done to harm her. 'Would he actually do anything to make her cry and feel wronged?' Lewis thought. But based on what he saw, he figured that he was mistaken with his assumption. The woman he was so worried about was now intimate with another man. Perhaps Lewis never had a place in Crista’s heart to begin with. He was just a burden to her. Everything that he gave her, she reluctantly accept

Her Inescapable Heart William smirked. "Are you worried about me?" "Why should I worry about you? There are already far too many people concerned about your well-being. I'm not the only one, you know? To be honest, I'm more worried about Lewis." In Crista's mind, Lewis could never win against William. "The more you worry about him, the more miserable he'll be!" he warned. He didn't know whether she was bluffing or just doing this on purpose. Crista cast a sidelong glance at William. She didn't give a damn about his threat because she had nothing to fear. But in reality, the person she worried about the most was William, not Lewis. William just cast her an indifferent glance, and drove back to the apartment. Meanwhile, Carla was sitting alone in a bar. She had emptied the entire bottle of liquor she ordered, and yet she was still very sober. For some reason, no matter how much she drank, it could never erase the pain she was fe

Subtle Changes The second fashion show went smoother than the first one. Crista honestly didn't need to worry about anything else. She just stayed with William the whole time, and let her assistants and stylists handle what needed to be done. As she sat beneath the stage, Carsie glanced at Crista, and said, "You've made astounding progress lately! Keep up the good work, Chica!" If the company's fashion season events continued to succeed, Crista would make leaps and bounds in her career as a designer. Carsie lived on her own and she didn't have any children. It took her the majority of her life to build her company from the ground up, so she didn't want EL Fashion to be passed down to someone unworthy. Out of all the people she had met, the only person worthy of inheriting her legacy was Crista. That was why she asked her to go back to A City and work with the Ding Group. Meanwhile, William hadn't said a word since the beginning of the

The Man In The Past Crista took a sip of the honey water and smiled. "Ms. Yao, I’m afraid that I can't go back to how things were in the past.” Even if she wanted to go back, she didn't have the courage to do so, because she would just end up being miserable again. "But you need to remember that some things out there are worth fighting for, Chica." Carsie was right. Many years ago,  she lost something, and she couldn't get it back anymore. "Ms. Yao, you have no idea how much getting your heartbroken can drive you towards despair." Crista knew that she was no longer strong enough to allow herself to experience heartbreak. "Oh, this is too depressing to talk about. Never mind. Just let nature take its course. Don't force yourself to do anything that you don't want to. I'm only telling you this for your own good. Do you understand? Sometimes, when you let go of someone you love, they might never come back," Carsie remarked.

She Refused To Face Him Adrian heaved a sigh. "Carsie, I know you're mad at me for what happened, but I had no choice! I had to leave you back then.” "Yes, that's right. You had no choice. It's been twenty years, Adrian! And now, you dare ask me how I've been doing? Is it really necessary? Just pretend we didn't see each other today, okay?" Carsie stared at his face. They had grown old, far away from each other, so there was no more need to associate herself with him. She was already living a good life now, unlike her hellish past. Back then, she had absolutely nothing! No decent education, diploma, nor job, and on top of that, she was a single mother. She was forced to go abroad and started working as a waitress. There was no way that he could ever understand her struggles, and he could never make up for it either. "It's been so long since we last saw each other. Now that you're here, I can't just pretend that I didn't see you.

She Didn't Want Him To Understand Her Feelings She was right. It was true that they were standing next to each other right now, but her heart and soul were distant It was as if they were thousands of miles apart. William didn't like how it felt. Normally, he could control anything, but for some reason, he could never control her. She was the only person who refused to be controlled. "Crista, I really want to see what's in your heart," William said as he looked into her eyes. Crista just smirked at him. "You wouldn't want know what lies beneath the darkness of this heart, Mr. Ding." If he had understood how she felt two years ago, things wouldn't have ended up this way. There was no way he could understand her heart. And knowing that her heart was once again giving into him, she didn't want him to understand. "You are not me. How the heck would you know whether I want to or not?"  'This woman is so self-righteous.

He Was Mesmerized William sat beside her. "You can do whatever you want, as long as I don't object to it." After saying that, he carried her into the bedroom. Then, he gently put her down beside the bed. Crista was standing barefoot. She stepped on the hemline of her dress and  tipped over. Slowly, she fell onto the bed behind her. Her arms were still dangling around his neck, so when she fell, she dragged him down with her. "You can't wait to sleep with me any longer, can you? I never expected to see this side of you." Since she had pulled him closer towards her, William wasn't planning to go easy on her anymore. "I can't wait? What are you talking about? It's the dress. It's too long, so I accidentally stepped on it."  With that, Crista felt no need to explain her side. Right now, they were  entangled  in  an  awkward position, so it wasn't the perfect time to talk about something as trivial as a dress.

No Matter What Her Purpose Was, He Didn't Care William just kept his mouth shut. Even if he allowed Crista to do as she pleased, he had one condition, that she had to stay by his side, and she couldn't leave without permission. "William, you know that she's just using you right? Don't you get it?" Carla kindly reminded him. He wasn't an idiot. All Crista wanted was a stable job and career growth. When she became part of the Ding Group's Design Department and  took charge of the whole fashion season's designs, she was no longer an ordinary employee. "Carla, there are some things that I don't need to know, and you don't have to tell me." He had always been decisive. Whether it involved Lewis or Tristan, he wouldn't give either of them an opportunity no matter what. He wanted to make sure that Crista would be by his side. Sternly, Carla stood before him, and said, "William, we've been working so hard all these years to get where we

Looking For Her Daughter "Hi, Ms. Yao. Are you also here to have coffee?" Crista approached Carsie. "I'm just here to deal with some private affairs. But now that I have time, shall we have a cup of coffee together?" She had already planned to go to the Ding Group's office to find Crista. It was good that they ran into each other here at the coffee shop. Crista nodded. "Sounds lovely." Afterwards, they ordered a cup of coffee and sat at a table by the window. "So, Ms. Yao, have you dealt with the private affairs you mentioned earlier?" Crista glanced at the portfolio that Carsie had put aside. "No, not really.” Carsie was certain that the girl she met earlier was not her daughter. Puzzled, Crista looked at her, and said, "So, does that mean you’re not done with it yet?" "Actually, I've been looking for my daughter who has been missing for twenty years already." There was no need for Carsie to hide that
