Reagan first gift

"Oh Jesus!!!"

Crystal screamed loudly as Reagan touched her shoulder.

Five minutes ago when Alonso's car stopped near the pool, Crystal immediately got out of the car and ran towards the west side of the house where Reagan's room was. Crystal chose not to enter through the main door because she didn't want her mood to get worse, what Laura did at that time is still well remembered by Crystal and Crystal doesn't want her to have to confront that woman again.

"What happened to you?" asked Reagan confusedly, seeing Crystal's great surprise just because he touched the girl's shoulder. "Why are you looking at me like you're staring at a ghost?"

Crystal, who was so shocked, tried to get her breath back even though it was a little difficult because her heart was still beating so fast. Crystal really didn't expect Reagan to appear suddenly like that.

Unable to bear it, Reagan then opened the bottle of water he had in his hand. "Drink, you'll be better after drinking."

Without being ordered twice, Crystal immediately accepted the bottle of drinking water given by Reagan and immediately drank it in a hurry, seeing that Reagan could only shake his head. He wanted to mention right now about the personality school Crystal was attending but Reagan refrained from discussing it now, seeing how shocked Crystal was a moment ago when he touched the girl's shoulder made Reagan curious. Reagan was absolutely certain that something was causing Crystal to react that way.

"Done?"

Crystal nodded. "Thank you, this drinking water really helps."

"Ok, now tell me what are you hiding from me?"

"W-what..."

"I'm the only person in this house who really knows you Crystal, so don't lie to me because I can tell right away." Reagan continued with a warning tone.

Crystal lowered her head. "Th-it's about money."

"Money?" Reagan raised his intonation subconsciously.

"Yeah, I almost got into trouble with the police for money today," Crystal said honestly.

"I don't understand, try to say it clearly."

Crystal took a deep breath, trying to control her emotions before finally recounting the embarrassing incident that had just happened at the convenience store and Reagan, who didn't expect Crystal to be so shocked over such a trivial thing, burst out laughing.

"Just because of fifteen pounds you're scared like that? oh come on Crys, even elementary school kids in London have money..."

"All the money I have you've confiscated, so how could I have money," said Crystal quietly.

"Hah?"

"You didn't forget that you forbade me to come home that night, did you?"

Reagan clenched his jaw, cursing the foolishness he had committed. Reagan forgot that he brought Crystal to London without giving her a credit card or money to hold on to, even his grandfather gave Crystal a cell phone when they were leaving for Indonesia two weeks ago. Stupid.

Instead of giving Crystal an answer, Reagan surprisingly grabbed Crystal's hand and forced her into the courtyard. Alonso and Jarvis who were talking beside the car they had just driven looked shocked when they saw Reagan return to them with Crystal with him.

"What the..."

"Take me to Lucy's place." Reagan cut Jarvis off in a deep voice.

"Lucy." Jarvis glanced at his watch. "But right now Lucy must be..."

"I'll call her and ask her to wait. So hurry up."

Jarvis smiled, as if he knew what Reagan wanted as soon as Jarvis got into the car along with Reagan and Crystal who was being helped by Alonso into the car. Not long after Alonso closed the car door, Jarvis then drove the metallic white car back out of the West family residence.

Crystal, who didn't know where she was going chose to stay silent and didn't speak, she didn't even look at Reagan who was talking to someone called 'Lucy' through his cellphone. Hearing Reagan's very different way of speaking made Crystal straighten her body even more, various questions immediately popped up in her head at this time. Who is Lucy, what is Lucy's relationship with Reagan and how beautiful a girl named Lucy is passing through Crystal's mind and Crystal tries hard to get those questions out of her head.

"No, I can't think like that. I realize that Crys, your relationship with Reagan is a relationship based on an agreement. So don't think about it. Reagan is free to have a relationship with any girl," Crystal said to herself, trying to shake off the strange feelings that were coming from her. rippled inside her ever since she heard Reagan say Lucy's name the first time. A feeling he had never felt before.

And all Crystal's curiosity about the figure of Lucy finally answered after they were at a private bank in central London. Lucy is the Manager of the bank where Reagan keeps nearly eighty percent of his money and what is even more astonishing is that Lucy is a graceful man whose real name is Luciano Fabian, a Spanish citizen who has lived for nearly twenty years in London with a same-sex partner. who works as a professional photographer.

"You owe me an explanation, Reagan," said Lucy quietly as she gave Crystal her best smile while standing beside Reagan.

"We got married three weeks ago before we went to Indonesia and she is from Australia, that's all I can give you."

Lucy grinned widely, instead of being annoyed that Reagan didn't invite him to his wedding with Crystal who this afternoon looked very beautiful in a knee-length skirt. Lucy grabbed Crystal's hands and gripped them tightly.

"You have to be patient with this heartless man Crys, Reagan West is the worst man in London and I'm sorry that you have to marry him," said Lucy regretfully without pause, Lucy didn't care about Reagan who was staring at him full of emotion.

And Crystal, who didn't know anything could only smile faintly, Crystal chose not to give any response to Lucy because she didn't want to make Reagan angry. Crystal still wanted to enjoy this peace a little longer, one week before returning to London Reagan's attitude changed surprisingly and that made Crystal feel more comfortable. She didn't hear Reagan's harsh words or cold demeanor anymore, which was why Crystal chose to be on the opposite side of the two men for safety.

"Come with me, I will take care of everything," said Lucy again friendly.

Crystal tilted her head. "Take care of what?"

"Creating credit cards and savings in your name based on Reagan's recommendation," answered Lucy with a big smile. "Actually my hours are up, but since Reagan is a priority customer at this bank and I'm his best friend then I can do this. So come to my room, I need some autographs and a photo of you."

Crystal's eyes immediately filled with tears, Crystal who didn't expect to get this kind of thing from Reagan was really moved. As Lucy pulled her towards her desk slowly Crystal turned to Reagan.

"Thank you Reagan, thank you," she said sincerely, tears rolling down her cheeks that were flushed with joy.

Badump…

Reagan's heart suddenly skipped a beat when he saw that, his chest tightened when he saw Crystal thanking him with such emotion.
