Chapter 16. What’s the Difference?

The Henry household lived in an independent villa with a big courtyard, and when Crystal arrived, the European-style patterned iron door was tightly closed to her. After taking a deep breath, Crystal put her hand on the doorbell, but before she actually pressed it, she found herself hesitating. Το press it or not to press it, that was the question. She would not be here except for the fact that her father had said that her mother had left something important for her.

None of the people living inside the villa had a good relationship with her. Her father hadn’t even picked her up after her mother died. Her Stepmother, Jessica, had been the reason why her father had abandoned her and her mother. Her half-sister Joyce had stolen her boyfriend, and Evan was Jessica’s son from her first marriage, so they weren’t even related by blood. Out of all of them, she hated Evan the least. That being said, behind his golden frame glasses, she thought she saw the eyes of a venomous snake.
