A Life For A Life
Robert stood there without moving. His muscles felt rock solid, and he had a dangerous look in his
eyes.
Staring straight at Crystal, he uttered slowly and clearly, “I haven’t lost my mind. Instead, I’ve come to
my senses. Let’s start over again. This time, I’ll be good to you.”
Although what happened between her and Henry bothers me tremendously, I’ll choose to forget about
it.
She was dumbstruck. By the time she snapped back to reality, he was cradling her face and about to
kiss her.
Crystal turned her head aside, and his lips brushed against her cheek, leaving behind a slight
moistness.
She shoved him away, her breathing erratic as she glared at him. She wanted to explain things to him
clearly. I don’t want any investment or compensation from him. There’s no need for any form of
relationship between us!
However, just as she was about to speak, she froze.
Henry was standing not too far away, smoking a cigarette.
He stared at them with his deep, dark gaze, his eyes as cold as though he was watching a random.
couple locked in a passionate embrace.
Her knees buckled slightly.
Leaning against the wall, she had to use her hands to prop herself up so that she did not slide
downward.
Robert had also spotted Henry. In a h oar se voice, he said to Crystal, “As long as you say the word, I’ll
call off the engagement. I’ll marry you and take you as my wife, and we’ll have a few kids.
His offer sounded very tempting, but that was not what she wanted. The person she truly desired was
staring at her icily, and she turned to look at Henry helplessly.
Robert’s body stiffened. I may have harbored a glimmer of hope before today. But now, I know I’ve lost
Crystal forever. It’s a love triangle that only has space for two, and I’m nothing but an outsider! She only
has eyes for Henry. As for me, I’ve been completely and utterly defeated,
He stepped back and walked away. As he brushed past Henry, he heard the latter, who had been born
into a privileged background, say frostily, “I don’t like others touching what’s mine.”
Those words halted Robert in his tracks for a moment. I’ve known Henry for a long time, but this is the
first time I’ve seen him display any signs of possessive behavior. He was never interested in anything
in the past, especially women. Perhaps I was wrong. Perhaps someday, he’ll be willing to walk down
the aisle. That’s because that person is Crystal. Because of her, he’ll want to get married.
When Crystal got into Henry’s car, she could distinctly smell alcohol on him. She guessed he had. been
having his celebratory dinner that night, then unexpectedly stumbled upon the so-called scene of her
having an affair.
Regardless of whether from a professional or personal standpoint, she had no wish to get into an
argument with him. Hence, she explained softly, “The music center is raising funds, and he had
someone sign a contract of intention with us. I had no idea it was him.”
Henry ignored her. Lighting a cigarette, he rested his hand on the car window and slowly puffed. away.
He finally turned to look at her after he finished smoking the cigarette. “Why are you explaining all that
to me? Isn’t our relationship merely physical?”
Her eyes reddened, and she lowered her head without saying a word. I’ve learned early on that he’s
moody and unpredictable. It’s absolutely pointless to argue with him now.
He stared at her for a long time. Suddenly, he said, “I feel like going to your place.”
Crystal was momentarily stunned. I know what he means by that. He wants to do it with me at my
apartment. Not only does such an action carry a subtle undertone of the need to vent, but it’s also a
show of power
She turned her head slightly and stared at the car window. After a while, she hummed softly in
acknowledgment.
With that, Henry floored the gas pedal. He was probably seething with anger as he drove very fast, and
they soon arrived at the condominium where she stayed.
Crystal could not help feeling embarrassed as she led him in.
“What would you like to drink?”
No sooner had she asked that question than she felt herself pushed down onto the couch.
Her long, brown hair fanned out over the couch’s light-colored upholstery was a rather striking sight.
Furthermore, the fact that it was where she lived alone stirred a sense of excitement within Henry.
He was rough, and even when she wanted to rest after they had done it once, he was still hungry for
more.
“Let’s continue!”
Tears dampened the corners of her eyes as she endured his needs.
After some time, her phone started ringing.
Her hand was pinned down, and she could not free it. However, her phone kept ringing again and again
until, in the end, Henry took it and glanced at the screen.
Seeing that the call was from Rabent, The answered it, put it on speakerphone, then resumed what he
had been doing.
“Crystal! Crystal…”
Henry fixed his dark eyes on her. She was biting her lip, and her nose was red. He was completely
conquering her!
On the other end of the line, Robert listened to the ambiguous sounds woodenly. It was as though
every drop of blood in his body had turned to ice. A second later, he smashed his phone to pieces.
Late that night. Cristal sat wrapped up in a blanket, staring blankly into space.
Meanwhile. Heman wat opposite her, fully dressed and holding a cigarette.
“I’m sending won the Kingdom of Brundela to further your studies. I’ll fly there every two weeks to
spend time with you. As for the music center, I’ll invest in it and hire a professional to help manage for
you.”
She slowly looked up without saying anything.
Under the light, her face was pale, and her eyes were slightly reddened.
ment had left her fearful. Her body ached all over, yet it was nothing compared to how she felt in her
heart. So, I’m to receive his favor every two weeks. If that isn’t the definition of being
Hry, do you think of me as your mistress? Everything must be how you want it, and if you’re
pase, you’ll arrange to send me abroad?” she asked quietly.
Alas, her question was not going to affect Henry’s decision. A meeting with Robert, like what had
happened that night, was something he would not allow to reoccur.
He put out his cigarette before replying, “It’s not important whether that’s what I think. What’s important
is that you must leave Barnwood.”
Crystal smiled. Things have long been over between me and Robert. We happened to bump into each
other by chance, and I rejected him. Never have I given Robert any hope. Besides the fact that I no
longer love him, it’s also because of Melora. I want Melora to be happier. However, this is how Henry is
going to treat me? He has an ambiguous relationship with Audrey, yet he can’t accept my past. I
submitted to him and allowed him to do as he wished here, but he wants to pull up his pants and send
me away as though I’m his mistress? D*mn you, Henry! I don’t want you anymore. I don’t want
anything!
Flinging aside the blanket and ignoring her aching body, she slowly started putting on her clothes.
Once she was dressed, she said calmly, “I’m not going.”
Needless to say, Henry already had a plan in mind. He sneered, “Have you forgotten that your father’s
case hasn’t gone to court yet?”
With that, he took a document from his pocket and tossed it to her.
After she took one glance at it, the color drained from her face. It was a receipt her father had
personally signed. That alone is enough to destroy him forever
“I had to go through much effort for that little slip of paper. Crystal, what do you think will happen if it
falls into the hands of the judiciary? Do you think your father will still be able to continue living a good
life?” he said expressionlessly.
Crystal was so angry that her whole body was shaking. It had never crossed her mind that he would
use that to threaten her.
Then, she chuckled.
Looking up, she uttered through clenched teeth, “I’ve done it with you many times, so it’s inevitable that
some feelings would have developed, right? Henry Miller, if my father has to spend even one day in
prison, I’ll sleep with Robert immediately. When that happens, do you think your precious sister will still
be able to continue living a good life? My father’s life is valuable, and so is your sister’s.”
As she spoke, a sharp pang shot through her heart. Nonetheless, she endured the pain and continued,
“Let’s exchange a life for a life.”
