Chapter 845


    The moment rk heard that, he realized the implication was that she intended to stay in the States for


    an extended period.


    "rk, it''s been a while since Crystal visited us. Why don''t you show her around our garden? We''ve


    nted a variety of new flowerstely. Maybe Crystal will find a few varieties she likes and can take


    some back to cultivate."


    rk could only respond, "I promised my sister, Be, that I would take a walk with her, right, Be?"


    Arabe was speechless.


    Since when?


    rk''s pleading gaze fell upon Arabe.


    Louisa was half-skeptical, "Didn''t you just finish walking with your sister?"


    "No worries, I can apany Be for a walk too; Crystal chimed in, causing rk to pause in


    surprise.


    "Well, then you guys should get going. I''ll have the staff turn on the garden lights,’ Louisa urged.


    With a radiant smile, Crystal linked arms with Arabe, “Be, I heard you just moved back. How are


    you adjusting?"


    Arabe nodded, taken aback by Crystal''s warm demeanor, "It''s been fine."


    "I heard you used to live in Summerfield, too. It''s been ages since myst visit. Maybe we could go


    shopping together sometime?"


    "Be is quite busy." rk came to her aid, "Between school, othermitments, and a fiancé who


    needs her attention."


    "What about you then?" Crystal looked up at him, hopeful.


    "I''m rather busy myself."

    "Well, we can always n a date once you''re both free,’ Crystal maintained her hold on Arabe''s


    hand, grinning, "We can go shopping and try out some delicious local food."


    "Sure; Arabe agreed just as her phone began to vibrate, "Excuse me, I need to take this call."


    rk wanted to tell her not to answer it, but seeing that the caller was Romeo, he could only plead with


    his eyes for her to return as soon as possible after the call.


    Arabe found the whole situation amusing. Was rk intentionally avoiding Crystal? Was he not


    interested in her?


    "So rk, what have you been up totely?" Crystal took the initiative again. "I heard there have been


    fewer criminal cases recently."


    "I''ve been spending time with my sister."


    "I understand young girls quite well. Next time you two go out, you can invite me along. I promise to


    make sure Be has a great time."


    "You really n to return and settle down here?" rk asked again.


    "Yes, this ce is my home. I was always nning to return."


    rk didn''t know what to say to her. As he was in deep thought, Crystal asked again, "Do you guys


    have any ns for tomorrow?"


    "Not sure yet."


    "What does Be like?" Crystal continued to inquire, "Are there any ces she''s been wanting to visit?


    Or anything she''s particrly interested in?"


    rk was stumped by the sudden barrage of questions.


    "Don''t tell me you don''t even know what your sister likes?"


    In rk''s memory, the only thing that genuinely piqued Be''s interest was Romeo. Only when


    Romeo''s name was mentioned did her eyes light up. No one else or anything else could stir a ripple in


    her heart.


    "It seems like you don''t know much. I''ll ask her myselfter on."
