"Well, I gotta go."
Suddenly someone called Crystal, and she stood up before finishing her lunch.
With a bitter smile on her face, she said, "I had to ask for leave to deal with my personal affairs. I'm afraid that Sabrina would complain to the manager and I get fired because of my mom making a scene in my company."
So Christina also stood up. "Then let's go together."
She had heart Crystal's mom's harsh words. She sounded like a debt collector.
"Crystal, call me if you need anything. If your mother asks you for money, I can lend it to you..."
"Thank you, but I'll handle it myself."
Crystal shrugged. "I know my mom well. I did have earned some money but I spent it all at once for a down payment on an apartment. I don't have any money to give her now."
"It's good to have your apartment." Christina thought she was smart.
"My salary only allows me to pay by installment. But I'm happy to have my own apartment. If my mother and my stepfather get into a fight in the future, she can live with me." Crystal had a clear mind.
Christina chuckled.
She knew that although Crystal was annoyed by her mother, she was filial.
They walked towards the counter together. "Let me pay the bill." Christina then took out her card from her bag.
Crystal didn't refuse. They were good friends, and they often treated each other to meals.
But Crystal thought of something. "By the way, how's your aunt going? Is she better now?"
Christina's aunt had once been a rich lady, and she hadn't known how to do housework at all. But her heart attack cost her a lot of money. So Christina spent most of her time working part-time when she was at college, as diligent as those poor students.
"My aunt is much better now."
Crystal teased her. "Your rich husband treats your family well." She could tell from Christina's clothes that her husband must be rich.
But Christina's expression froze when she heard that. She explained in a hurry, "No, I paid my aunt's medical bills with the money of my granddad's legacy... He, well, I don't want to use his money."
