Chapter 32 He's So Dirty , How Dare He ? Crystal lost her job , but she didn't tell Anna about it in case the latter got worried . She sat alone on the park bench , quiet and deep in thought . The sunlight was just nice , but Crystal only felt cold . +5 Bonus She went through the bills they needed to pay at home . They would have to pay the Jake Murray Law Firm a huge amount , and John also needed some money . There wouldn't be enough money left at home . Crystal gently took out a thin cord hanging on her neck . A pale pink diamond adorned it . She caressed it for a long while . In the end , she gritted her teeth and went to a pawn shop . The broker appraised it for a while , then named some prices . " If it's just as collateral , I can only give you about 9 thousand but if you're selling it , I can offer 30 thousand ." The pink diamond was worth at least 70 thousand , but Crystal couldn't afford to worry about that right now . A She needed money . She smiled bitterly . " I'll sell it , then ! " After getting the check for 30 thousand , she added some of her family's savings , then went to the Jake Murray Law Firm to pay the fees . As she was walking out , she received a phone call from Madison . Madison had already learned about Crystal losing her job . " Where are you ? " she asked . " Come over and I'll treat you to a meal . " Crystal couldn't go home just yet , so she agreed . Madison treated her to some barbecue . In the hot restaurant , Madison placed the meat rolls on the grill as she complained , " I've already had bad impressions of that b * tch Clementine since college ! She would flirt with any man who is slightly more successful , and when you were dating Robert , she tried to flirt with him a few times ." Crystal was stunned before she chuckled lightly . " Now she's getting what she wanted . " She proceeded to tell Madison everything Clementine had said . When Madison heard it , she was startled . She came to her senses and shouted again , " F * ck ! I can't believe she'd do that ! And how cruel can Robert be ? That wretched duo is perfect for each other . " Fearing that Crystal would be upset , she coaxed , " Don't take it to heart ! Robert is now Melora's man , so it's not our business even if he's dirty ." Crystal suddenly remembered what Henry said , that Melora had once attempted to take her own life for Robert's sake . Henry may not be oblivious to the messy things Robert is involved in , and maybe he's just being lenient . Crystal was in a daze , so Madison nudged her . " You mustn't be sad because of that b * stard . " Crystal shook her head . " Of course not . " Chapter 32 He's So Dirty , How Dare He ? Madison sighed upon hearing that . " You're right . Money is more important than some b *stard . " 85 % +5 Bonus Fearing that Crystal wouldn't have enough money , she took out a bank card again . Crystal declined , saying quietly , " I don't need it for now . " Madison didn't believe her . Crystal took a piece of meat and placed it on her plate , saying quietly , " I sold the necklace ." Madison was stunned . A long while later , she said shakily , " Why didn't you consult me first ? That was the only thing your mother left for you , and you never parted from it since young . " Crystal patted her friend's hand , about to comfort her when her phone rang on the table . It was a call from the manager of the restaurant she was working part - time at . Crystal answered the call . A few exchanges later , she slowly put down her phone and told Madison , " The restaurant fired me . " Madison was about to blow a gasket . " It's the work of Robert again , isn't it ? " she muttered . " How is he so persistent ? Come , Crystal , let's talk to him . I need to get you justice ! That b * stard cheated four years of love from you , and now he's trying to kill you ! " Crystal held Madison back . She begged Madison not to go because she knew that Robert did all this to force her to become his lover . When Madison heard that , she was so mad that she sobbed . " How can Robert treat you like that ?! He's not just engaged , but he even has an affair with that b * tch Clementine ! He's so dirty , so how dare he ask you to go back to him ? "
