the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart-Chapter 966: Only Eighteen and Already Like This—Is She Going to Defy Heaven?

The Shaw family’s grandmother smiled and pinched Crystal Landon’s little hand.

Crystal Landon smiled sweetly. As if she’d be foolish. Her grandmother was hers alone, and those alluring ones wanted to share the favor? No way.

"Crystal, why did you score 0 in English? Even if you guessed randomly, you could get a few points." Shannon Walker, seeing her mother losing ground and staring at Crystal’s beautiful face, couldn’t help but feel a surge of jealousy. She’s only 18, and she’s already this stunning. What would it be in the future?

"I’m still young. Delaying university by a year isn’t a big deal. Grandma says it’s not too late to go to university after getting married." She continued to smile as she spoke.

One sentence made the opposite party’s face change dramatically. Thinking of their visit this time to probe about Richard Shaw’s marriage, yet finding out that the grandmother and the Landon family have already discussed marriage, it’s no wonder the grandmother didn’t speak all afternoon and kept smiling, suddenly they felt extremely awkward.

After sitting for a short while, everyone got up to leave, as if chased by dogs.

The Shaw family’s grandmother saw that those she couldn’t send away all afternoon, Crystal Landon did with just a few words. She couldn’t help but rub her head, laughing: "You’re really impressive, little girl. I guess I don’t need to worry about you being bullied in the future."

"Grandma, you still need to spoil me, or what if Brother Azhe bullies me?" Crystal blinked her big eyes, acting spoiled.

"It’d be good enough if you don’t bully him." The grandmother laughed, calling the butler to quickly make a couple of dishes that Crystal liked.

When the man returned from outside, he heard the grandmother’s cheerful laughter coming from the living room, and even his stern face unexpectedly softened a little.

In the few days since coming back, relatives almost wore down the hallway. The grandmother sent him out, and he took the chance to visit some of his father’s old comrades. The transfer order to the Imperial City had been sitting in his cabinet, as he was trying to delay his return to the Imperial City and the acceptance of the rank of Major General.

As Richard Shaw entered the living room, he saw the grandmother’s face beaming with laughter from Crystal’s antics. The young girl wore clean, simple attire – a T-shirt and pleated skirt, without any unnecessary makeup, looking very pure and lovely. Yet, thinking about her taking on two in the bar and scaring a few young dandies with her aura, he squinted his eyes. This delinquent girl also had such a side. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Crystal was the first to see Richard Shaw returning.

Over the years, Richard Shaw had grown taller and looked different from the handsome young boy he once was. He exuded a military and steely aura, giving off a strong sense of security, but the only thing unchanged was his eyes, still sharp and bright with a touch of aloofness.

This kind of man, with a heavy sense of responsibility, is just a bit reserved and old-fashioned in nature, but truly a good family man. Not to mention his family background, looks, and physique, which really surpass those young gentlemen of the Imperial City.

"Grandma, why are you so happy?" Richard Shaw entered, changed his shoes, and asked in a deep voice.

"Crystal came over. The Walkers sat here all afternoon, refusing to leave, and Crystal sent them off with just a few words." The grandmother laughed, "You’re just in time. Crystal will be staying at the house for a while. You should help her with her English studies."

As she spoke, the grandmother stood up to check on dinner in the kitchen, giving the young people some space.

Richard Shaw’s expression slightly darkened, staying at the house?

"How many points did you score in English?" the man asked coldly.

Crystal rested her chin on her hand, looking at his chiseled and handsome face. They say soldiers are tanned like black iron, but why hadn’t Richard Shaw tanned at all? Unlike those pale, weak types, he naturally had a sunny and healthy complexion like bronze. Thinking of scenes inappropriate for children in the future, Crystal’s heart inexplicably skipped a beat.
