Purchased A Mr. Right
Chapter 1490

The road was very congested during rush hour.

When the car stopped at the destination, the sky had already begun to darken, looking vague.

Crystal was lost in her thoughts all the way until a big hand reached over and unfastened her seatbelt.

She pursed her lips as she looked up at the deep-defined face in front of her.

Erik was puzzled. "Lil Star, what's wrong?"

Crystal shook her head. "Nothing!"

Erik raised his hand and touched her head.

Under his palm was the soft touch of her hair.

Thinking of tonight's preparation, he couldn't help feeling hot in his heart.

He smiled and said, "Then let's go in!"

Crystal responded and got out of the car.

It was a high-end entertainment club. After entering, the manager greeted them and led them to the elevator after confirmation.

The elevator door was golden, inlaid with tulips, and people could see their reflections on the petals.

It was only then that Crystal noticed that Erik seemed to be dressed up intentionally today. He didn't wear military uniform but a casual suit. Just like the last time they went to the amusement park, his short black hair and facial features were angular and charming.

When they came in, the female receptionist did not even look away from him.

When the elevator arrived, Erik's cell phone rang.

The call was from the military. His expression became serious in an instant and he said to her, "Lil Star, go up first and stay in the WIP box on the third floor. I'll come later!"

Crystal nodded cleverly. "Okay!"

The box was on the third floor and the elevator arrived soon.

Crystal asked a waiter then she arrived at the door after a short while.

Behind the glass door, it seemed to be meticulously decorated.

At this moment, there were already quite a few people inside. Some people were moving about, and there were even rough male voices coming out. They should be Erik's comrades-in-arms. As Crystal pushed the door open a little bit, she could hear the voices more clearly.

"When I just knew that Erik was going to confess tonight, I thought that the sun was coming out from the west. Our Lieutenant Colonel Chin was tempted! Not to mention the ladies from his mother's business partners, even those female soldiers in our army, none of them has ever been noticed by him!"

"Yes, I'm also curious who the girl is! I heard from Aiden that Erik has been waiting for many years!"

At this time, the third person said unhurriedly, "I have inquired about her. She should be the daughter of Schain's Group, called Holly. I have met her once. She was in the same university as my sister. I heard that she was a genius student. When she was in high school, she even jumped two levels. What's more, she was from a decent family. She and Erik are a good match. They are both outstanding people!"

He knew that two girls would come tonight, one of whom was Erik's younger sister. Although she was more beautiful and brighter, he did not think much about it and subconsciously thought that the person Erik liked was Holly.

The person next to him immediately responded, "Holly Schain? I have seen her on the newspaper. She is really beautiful and elegant!"

The third person nodded in agreement. Pretending to be mysterious, he continued,

"I've also heard that the reason why Erik came all the way to Ice city is to propose marriage to her parents..."

Crystal did not move.

She put her hand on the door handle tightly and felt her skin getting colder bit by bit.

Suddenly someone patted her on the shoulder. She slowly turned around and saw Holly, who they praised just now.

She spoke in a hoarse voice. "Holly, you're here!"

Holly also seemed to have just arrived. When she stepped out of the elevator, she saw that Crystal was standing still at the door like a statue. She asked in confusion, "Why aren't you going in?" Crystal loosened her stiff hands and found an excuse. "I... I suddenly want to go to the bathroom!"

"I'll go with you!" Holly said softly.

The bathroom was at the end of the corridor, so they had to walk a long way.

Crystal crossed her hands in front of her body, and her feet seemed to be filled with lead, as if all her strength had been taken away in an instant.

Her gaze fell on her toes and her lips squirmed for a long time before her voice coming from her throat. "Holly, last time you said that you and Erik met many years ago. And in all these years, you've actually been in touch, right?"

"Yes!" Holly smiled and nodded. "Actually, I've only stayed in the Tbridge City for half a year. It was a coincidence that I ran into him. In the following years, I've only contacted Erik with E-mails occasionally." Holly didn't say much, because she was worried that Erik would be exposed.

Crystal did not continue to ask.

She and Holly were good sisters growing up together. They were also good friends. They talked about almost everything, but Holly had never mentioned anything about meeting Erik. After all, no matter how good their relationship was, they would have their own small secrets, especially about men.

Cystal thought that when she went to Tbridge City as a volunteer, she had also discussed with Holly. Holly strongly encouraged her to go and depicted Tbridge City as particularly beautiful, perhaps because she had precious memories there.

Erik had someone he liked.

For many years.

Crystal's mind flashed back to last night, the two of them stood together in front of the window in a close manner. They smiled at the same time, and Erik's eyes were filled with warmth.

Although Riley was very beautiful, she was still no match for Holly. No wonder Erik remained unmoved.

He was going to confess his love for her tonight and propose marriage.

They were in love, but she didn't see through it at all.

Crystal had already imagined the romantic scenes in the idol dramas. Erik confessed in public, and Holly, as the heroine, would definitely be moved and very happy.

She felt that something in her heart was broken.

The pieces were scattered and couldn't gather together at all.

After coming out of the bathroom and approaching the box, Crystal felt suffocated in her chest.

She clenched her fingers and forced a smile. She stopped and said, "Holly, please go into the box first. I suddenly remembered something. I'll make a phone call before going in!" "Do you need me to accompany you?" Holly asked very considerately.

"No need!" Crystal immediately shook her head.

Holly did not force her, but smile and urge her. "Alright, hurry up!"

She nodded.

After Holly's slender figure disappeared behind the door, Crystal turned around and walked down the stairs of the emergency access without waiting for the elevator. Out of the entertainment club, she stopped a taxi and disappeared in the night.

She seemed to be out of love.
