Crystal looked at Serenity and asked, “What did Nathan do when he saw Frank’s shrine to me in his house?”
Serenity: “Professor Davis nearly blew a gasket. He tore up the photos and the inflatable dolls, and then he burned the pieces in the backyard. He is usually calm and polite, so it was pretty scary to see him lose control of himself like that.”
Crystal shook her head and said, “You’ve got it all wrong. His calm and polite persona is just an act. The way you saw him when he was angry is what he is really like.”
Serenity: “That can’t be true. After all, Professor Davis said that he didn’t feed Frank to the sharks. As you know, Frank is one of his students. Professor Davis fired him, though, and then he threw him into a mine. It will take Frank ten y
Nathan met Crystal’s eyes in the mirror, and his brow furrowed furiously. “What is your problem?” he shouted. All he knew was that Crystal wanted to divorce him. “I would think that the advantages of being married to me would outweigh the disadvantages, but not only do you not want to talk about our marriage, but you want to keep it a secret! What’s up with that? How long until we can’t make our marriage public?”“We can make it public after I graduate,” Crystal replied.Nathan: “That will do.”It was a ten-minute drive from their home to the supermarket, and when they arrived, Nathan followed Crystal into the store. They got a cart to put the groceries in, and as they were walking through the produce section, someone pushed Crystal against Nathan, an
A store manager came around the corner as Nathan was standing up. He looked at Nathan, then at Crystal, and finally at the mess on the floor. She smiled nervously and said, “Excuse me, sir, but are you responsible for this mess?”Nathan stood up and turned to look at the girl, and when she saw his face for the first time, she gasped, and her jaw nearly hit the floor. The girl wore the blue and red uniform that was a requirement of all supermarket employees. She had a symmetrical face and a pretty smile, and when she saw Nathan, her face flushed. She immediately lowered her head, held out a book with both hands, and said, “I don’t need to ask you to pay for anything. I know you didn’t break it on purpose. I just want you to leave us your phone number. That way, if there is an investigation, we can contact you.”Nathan stared a
Crystal frowned and said, “Oh, no! What a pity. I was going to cook a big lunch for you. I am so sorry! What now?”Nathan shrugged, and as he turned around, he said, “We can go out to eat, and you can cook for me tonight or another time!”“Yes!” Crystal exclaimed. “We can go out for lunch. My treat. And then I’ll make dinner for you tonight!”“Sounds good to me,” Nathan said.They hadn’t driven far when Nathan’s phone rang. He accepted the call through the car’s Bluetooth. It was Andy, Nathan’s assistant. After exchanging pleasantries, Andy said, “Mr. Grant just arrived with a contract. You have an appointment with him at noon. Did you forget?”
Joyce walked over to where Crystal and Nathan were seated. She looked over the table and out their window and then at Crystal. “Well, well, well,” she said. “Since when can just anyone get a table at Air Cosme?” She turned to the manager, “I want this table. You can ask them to leave. I will pay double for everything I ordered.The manager sighed and said, “I’m afraid that is not the way we operate here. As long as Mr. Davis is here, this is his table.”“No,” Joyce whined. “I want this table!”She stomped her feet.” I want it! “I want it! I want it!Suddenly, Carlos grabbed Joyce’s arm. His face was red, “Let’s eat somewhere else,” he said. “You’re caus
The restaurant owner took Nathan’s black credit card, turned around, and told the waiters to invite all customers to leave politely. It wasn’t a surprise, of course, that some of the customers were dissatisfied. A man in a black suit complained to his wife, saying, “Money is not everything. I’m enjoying my dinner...”A man from the next table asked him, “How much did they give you to leave?”“A million dollars,” the man in the suit replied.“Me too,” the other man said. “What the fuck! Who is that man? If he is paying each table a million dollars to leave, it will cost him over ten million dollars to clear the place out -plus, he is paying for our meals!”At this time, the waiter walked over to
Nathan thought for a minute, and then he took another credit card from his pocket. He smiled and showed it to Crystal, but she scowled and said, “Big deal!” The card was more impressive than her mother’s, but she refused to be impressed. “So what?”“This is my salary card,” Nathan explained.“From now on, it’s yours.”Crystal smiled wryly and said, “You’re not afraid that I’ll take your money and run?”Nathan, “Try it if you want. If you succeed, then there’s nothing I can do about it. It is a risk that I am willing to take.”Crystal pushed the card away. She didn’t want to have anything to do with this man, financially
When Nathan saw the expression on Crystal’s face, he laughed and said, “Obviously, we’re not here to shop for me. We’re here so that you can get some practice using a credit card.”Nathan led Crystal into the mall, and their first stop was a luxury brand store that had a good reputation in the fashion world. When the salesgirl saw Nathan, she got excited. After working for the store long enough, the salesgirls had all learned to tell who had come in to spend money and who was just “Window Shopping.”The salesgirl approached Nathan and Crystal and asked if she could help them. Nathan pointed to Crystal and said, “Wrap up everything she wants. Money is not a concern of mine.”Crystal laughed and said, “You’re making me feel like a mistress.”
Once Nathan and Crystal were dressed, he pulled her out of the fitting room. Ignoring his aunt, he handed the clothes she’d brought in with her to a salesgirl and told her to ring it up for them. After paying for these items, Nathan dragged Crystal out of the store, across the mall, and into an elevator. Once the doors had closed behind them, Crystal glared at Nathan and said, “What did you mean when you said that I wasn’t qualified to seduce you?”Nathan smiled, and instead of answering her, he pressed her against the wall. After a moment, he cupped her left breast in his right hand, gave it a gentle squeeze, and said, “Your tits are too small.”Crystal frowned, and her cheeks turned pink. “They are as big as they were ten minutes ago,” she said, “and they seemed to suit you just fine when you were sucking
