Henry made it sound intimate on purpose.
Crystal was exasperated and amused at the same time.
After giving her one last meaningful gaze, he gave Ewan a curt nod and got into the car.
Skyler leaned against the window and mouthed the words, “You’re done for!”
Daddy is vindictive!
Standing under the nightsky, Crystal watched as the luxury car disappeared into the distance and
shook her head. Dealing with Henry is even more tiring than caring for a child.
Ewan noticed it all.
He looked down at the sweet in his hand, certain that he no longer had a shot. Even if Henry was not in
the picture, the child was another compelling reason.
Despite her young age, the girl is sharp as a tack. Not only did she call me Handsome, she even shot
me down on Crystal’s behalf.
Upon regaining her composure, Crystal smiled apologetically at him.
Ewan smiled as well. He looked in the direction the car had left and, after a long time, asked carefully,
“You’re… still in love with him, aren’t you?”
Henry brought Skyler home.
Upon returning to the mansion, the child took a shower. He, on the other hand, sat quietly on the
couch, looking grim.
Although he knew that Crystal and Ewan would never end up together, he was jealous regardless.
Unable to bear the torment of his thoughts, he picked up his phone and sent Crystal a text: Do you like
young men now, Miss Winters? They’re young and inexperienced. Would they be able to satisfy you?
Crystal stared at her phone for a long time to ascertain that it was from Henry.
The past three years has taken a toll on him.
Crystal could not be bothered to entertain him. She merely replied: Thank you for your concern. I’ll give
it a try.
Henry flung his phone in anger when he read it.
They were mad at each other.
Skyler ran out in a pair of pajamas after her shower and nuzzled up against Henry.
Henry put away his scowl as he wiped her hair dry. Although she was so comfortable that she was
about to fall asleep, she did not forget to console her father. “Moinmy won’t like that Mr. Hudson.”
Henry was delighted, but he pretended to be unperturbed. “Hmmm?”
Skyler yawned. “Mommy is so pretty that it’s normal for men to like her, just like me. There are so many
boys in the kindergarten who like me that I can’t even count them!”
Henry felt his heart soften.
He kissed the child. “Am I too bossy?”
Skyler nodded in reply.
Henry reflected the matter earnestly..
Did I watch Crystal too closely that it repulsed her? Now that we have a child, she won’t have the time
to go on dates. It appears that I’m terribly insecure.
Henry patted the child in his arms gently and picked up his phone to apologize to Crystal. He had typed
out the entire message when Skyler spoke again. “You’re right to be anxious, Daddy. Mommy
answered a call in the car today. She sounded very excited.”
Henry’s fingers trembled.
Skyler narrowed her eyes. “Mommy calls him Seth!”
Henry flung his phone aside in a silent rage.
Skyler rolled over in his arms, making herself comfortable.
Henry spent all night simmering in jealousy.
When Crystal came over early the following morning to pick up Skyler, Henry greeted her with stiff
formality. He did not ask about Ewan.
Since he did not mention it, Crystal was not going to as well.
After taking the suitcase from the housekeeper, she turned to Henry, who was seated on the couch. “I’ll
send her home tomorrow night,” she said calmly.
Henry kept his gaze fixed on the finance magazines, looking rather indifferent.
Crystal was not bothered by it. She was about to leave when he called out to her.
He waited for Skyler to enter the car before pointing at the couch across from him. “There’s something I
want to ask you.”
Crystal handed the suitcase to the housekeeper.
The housekeeper tactfully led Skyler to the car. After the living room regained its silence, Henry said.
casually, “I heard you’re still in contact with Seth,”
Crystal was not surprised that he knew.
That little spy, Skyler….
In actual fact, Seth had called her to ask about Sophia.
Furthermore, Pete and Seth were partners on a project. As their boss, it was not unusual for her to
interact with him. Besides, he seemed to have a girlfriend in Hulcaster.
However, Crystal was not going to explain all that to him.
“So what if I am? You’re not going to interfere again, are you?”
Henry stared at her for a long time before giving a sudden smile. “Of course not. We’re ex-couples
now.” Not wanting to have a falling out with her again, he quickly changed the subject. “By the way, has
Melora contacted you?”
“Melora?”
Henry lit a cigarette but put it out. “She’s been gone for two years.”
Crystal was surprised.
Melora has always struck me as a delicate and naive woman. Why would she leave for two years?
Henry knew from the look on her face that she did not know about it.
He smiled and said, “Come home with me when you’re free. Mom and Dad… My mom and dad miss
you. Bring Skyler. They want to see her.”
Crystal held the glass. She thought it was inappropriate.
Henry knew what she was thinking. “You’re Skyler’s mother! There’s no reason why you shouldn’t drop
by as a guest.”
Crystal smiled faintly. “All right, I’ll visit them when I can.”
Henry detected her hesitance but did not force her..
In the end, Crystal did not follow him to the Miller residence as she felt uncomfortable.
She and Henry had broken up and reconciled several times. Before their relationship became more
defined, she did not think she should get the elders involved and cause them to worry.
While she looked after Skyler, Henry was busy with his career.
In time, the intimacy between them dwindled because Henry did not dare force matters between them
and also because he was swamped. He had been overwhelmed by all his obligations back then.
Having Crystal’s help in looking after Skyler enabled him to focus on his career now.
Before Eastamor, he had purchased a chain of five-star hotels in Horbah, which he named Windsor
Hotel.
The celebratory banquet, streamed by various media companies, was the talk of the town.
Clad in a fancy three-piece suit and holding a glass of champagne, Henry shared a toast with several
important-looking people. Beside him stood a beautiful movie star who was the ambassador of the
establishment.
Although she was attentive, she was also cautious.
Skyler looked at them for a long time, holding her head. “Mommy, aren’t you jealous?”
Crystal considered the question carefully.
I’m not, actually. If I was, I would have been with him long ago.
She kissed the child and said gently, “Your daddy is allowed to have his own private life.”
“Oh…”
Skyler nestled on the couch in dejection. Not only did she want her mother, but she also wanted to live.
with both her parents like other children.
Sensing that Skyler was unhappy, Crystal stroked the child’s head. “There are some things you’ll
understand when you grow older, Skyler.”.
“Oh…”
Skyler knew how much her mother loved her, and she knew that her mother might be with her father if
she made herself cry, but she was fond of her mother. She couldn’t bring herself to behave like that.
The child was rather forlorn that night.
Henry returned to Barnwood ahead of time that night and went straight to Crystal’s place, a beautifully
done condominium spanning almost one hundred and eighty square meters.
Skyler was already asleep when he arrived.
Henry set his luggage down gently and removed his jacket. “Is she asleep?” he asked Crystal naturally.
“Yeah…”
After entering the bedroom, Henry placed the teddy bear he had brought back from Horbah beside
Skyler’s pillow where she would see it when she.woke up. Throughout it all, he looked indescribably
tender.
Crystal looked at him quietly from the door.
Henry sat on the side of the bed for a long time. “Have you eaten?” he asked with à smile when he
stood. up and met her gaze.
Before Crystal could answer, he pulled out a box from his pocket. “This is for you.”
Crystal opened it. Instead of finding something extravagant inside, she found a pair of lovely pearl
earrings.
A gift like this is something a husband who went on a business trip would buy for his wife.
She hesitated.
Henry said in a low voice, “You’ll look good in these.”
Crystal put it away, then headed toward the kitchen. “Let me make you some coffee.”
Henry guessed that she had something to discuss.
Crystal made him a cup of coffee. “She seems a little unhappy because of our separation,” she said
softly as he took a sip.
Henry did not speak.
He was much more aware of Skyler’s condition than Crystal was.
After a long silence, he said, “It’s all right. I’ll talk to her later.”
“All right.”
He set down his cup of coffee. “It’s been a long time since we’ve spoken to each other like this,
Crystal.”
