Crystal Shaw could clearly feel Lily Shaw's unmasked contempt and disdain for her. Seeing that cool, calm pair of eyes tinged with a hint of crimson, growing with intensity and hostility, made all the words she wanted to spit back out get stuck in her throat, unable to be said, no matter what.
Suddenly, she understood a little why Lily Shaw, always clever and composed, ended up here—carelessly falling for Simon Sawyer's trap. The one she always saw as an enemy, Lily Shaw, had come to rescue her...
No, to be exact, Lily had come because of their shared father, Justin Shaw. She really hadn't expected Lily would do something like this.
Crystal and her mother knew better than anyone what the relationship between Lily and Justin Shaw was like. Lily hated Justin so much, so fiercely, she had completely severed all ties with him—they were no longer father and daughter. How could she possibly come here to save Crystal because of Justin?
