Crystal gritted her teeth, lowered her head, and said to Carlos, "I'll see you later. Wait for me."
"Honey, remember to dress up for the evening party,"
"Can't I just dress like that?"
"This is our first public appearance since we got married. We should dress more formally."
"Did you call the reporters again? Are you going to have a live world broadcast again?"
Eric shrugged. "It's a party tonight. It's a gathering of high society. And a lot of my friends couldn't wait to see Mrs. Bush."
"It's none of my business."
"It would be better for you to get Nancy out if you had been dressed nicely." Eric had the carrot and the stick. It was a threat to her!
Crystal knew too much about Eric. As soon as he snatched her from Nathan, he couldn't wait to show his results and happiness.
Crystal wished she could hide from Nathan at such times and never be seen again.
