the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart-Chapter 1019: Breaking Away to Stand Alone, Leaving the Landon Family
Richard Shaw responded in a deep voice, took her to the car, and then had Smith drive to the Landon Family.
Perhaps because there was an outsider present, Crystal Landon gradually stopped crying, and leaned against the window, staring blankly at the sky outside.
When they arrived at the Landon Family, she moved all her belongings into Richard Shaw’s car, threw away some things she didn’t want into the trash can, and took an hour to clear out her living quarters. She left the Landon family villa without looking back.
Early the next morning, the Shaw Family’s old lady rushed back on a special car.
Crystal Landon couldn’t sleep through the night, tossing and turning in distress, and only dozed off in a daze at dawn.
When the old lady returned, Richard Shaw went out to greet her, speaking softly, "She’s fine, don’t worry too much."
"Explain it clearly. How did this happen out of the blue? After you tell me, I will ask the Landon family to come over." The old lady’s eyebrows were filled with anger. Having been a kind old woman for decades, people in the Imperial City really thought she was naturally like this.
Richard Shaw supported her, went into the living room, and recounted the events of last night, which were not much different from what Mrs. Zhao had said.
After listening, the old lady felt furious inside, and silently walked into Crystal Landon’s room.
Crystal Landon, being a light sleeper, saw her grandmother return and crawled out of bed, asking, "Grandma, why did you come back now?"
The old lady saw her eyes were swollen, knowing she must have cried secretly yesterday, and felt a bit distressed. She touched the little girl’s thin face and smiled, "I returned after the worship concluded. I heard everything from Richard, don’t worry, Grandma is here."
Crystal Landon nodded and snuggled against the old lady’s arm, feeling somewhat reassured.
"Grandma, my room hasn’t been tidied yet, let me clean up a bit, take a bath, you must be very tired from just getting back, go and rest for a while."
The old lady saw her so keen on beauty, chuckled lightly, and left the room. Her face turned serious again as she said to Mrs. Zhao, "Mrs. Zhao, call the Landon family and tell their family to come to the Shaw Family before noon, and bring Pearl Landon along. Even if Pearl is barely breathing, they should bring her."
Seeing the old lady angry, Mrs. Zhao quickly went to make the call.
"Richard, you call Old Liang and ask him to bring the police station chief over." The old lady continued, "Also call Old Li and ask him to come over."
Richard Shaw nodded, saying, "Grandma wants Crystal to be independent, to move her registration out of the Landon Family?"
The old lady nodded. She couldn’t explain many things to her grandson. The Landon Family really doesn’t appreciate favors. Initially, she thought the Landon Family was an intellectual family that had received grace from that person, and considered fostering the little girl there. The Landon family, even if out of gratitude, should treat Crystal well, not to mention how much the Shaw Family had supported them, both openly and in secret over the years. Yet, now they dare to pull such a stunt.
Luckily, her Crystal is clever, or else she would have been falsely accused, and her grandson, being such a straightforward guy, if he had even touched Pearl’s sleeve, the Landon Family would probably try to blame him.
The atmosphere at the Shaw Family was very tense. Mrs. Zhao’s tone was also very harsh when she made the call, and Mother Landon was displeased after hanging up.
"The Shaw Family’s old lady asked us to bring Pearl over, surely Crystal reported us."
Father Landon barely got any proper sleep at night, intending to go back to sleep but the mother and daughter wouldn’t let him, and Clark was away on a business trip and not back yet, so no one was there to watch over them. He spent a chaotic night at the hospital. He was already in a bad mood, and upon hearing her words, he said, "Let’s go. No matter what, Crystal was raised by us, the Shaw Family can’t interfere in our affairs, can they?"
