Crystal blushed furiously and pushed Henry away, sputtering, “No!”
It was impossible for her to fall back asleep now. She headed to the walk-in closet to change.
Henry followed her inside.
They had been married, and he had seen her changing multiple times.
Crystal was unbothered by his presence. After she slipped on a sweater, she felt him hugging her from
behind. He mumbled, “Secretly, you’re still blaming me, aren’t you, Crystal?”
She did not refute him.
Some things simply took more time to forget than others.
She replied softly, “We both need time to deal with this, Henry.”
He hummed gently in agreement, glad that they were getting along much better now. When they were
alone, he refrained from doing any inappropriate gestures. Crystal was too important to him. Not only
was she the woman he wanted, but she was also the mother of his child, Skyler.
Everything else could wait for its appropriate time and place.
Just then, Henry’s phone rang.
It was a call from David. Henry kept an arm around Crystal’s slender waist while answering his phone.
“Dad?”
David sounded rather displeased as he barked, “Bring Crystal here, Henry!”
Before Henry could ask any questions, David had him pass the phone to Crystal.
He said some things to Crystal, who nodded and replied, “All right. We’ll be there in a while.”
David hung up.
“What did he tell you?” asked Henry.
Crystal explained, “The Quinns are causing a fuss over there. They insist I do a bone marrow match
test with Joshua.”
The news infuriated Henry.
She can’t possibly be a match, and even if she is, are they going to force her to donate her bone
marrow to Joshua?
Crystal noticed his expression and shot him a small smile. “What’s wrong? You seem to have formed
some opinions about Joshua?”
Henry promptly took off his bathrobe and put on a clean suit.
While he changed, he said, “You’ll know once you go back! It’s some unpleasant business. My dad and
Joshua aren’t on the best of terms!”
His words tipped Crystal off that there was more to the situation than he had let on
Henry and Crystal returned to the Miller residence with Skyler in tow.
As they stepped through the front door, they were greeted by the sight of Georgina throwing a tantrum.
Rhea and Audrey were also present.
Georgina wept and wailed, “Joshua wouldn’t be infertile now if he didn’t risk himself saving Melora.
He’s ill now, and all we’re asking is for Crystal to go for a test. How can you be so cold-hearted and turn
us away?”
Henry handed Skyler over to Crystal before asking her coldly, “Why don’t you beg the Lodge family for
help, then?”
The Lodge family?
Georgina’s expression soured once she thought of Alfred.
In the meantime, Henry helped Crystal to settle into a couch and added sneeringly, “Your fear of
begging the Lodge family for help is nothing more than an admission of guilt toward Crystal. Why not
repent over your past actions instead of causing a ruckus at the Miller residence?”
Undeterred, Georgina insisted through gritted teeth, “But Joshua once saved Melora’s life!”
Julia’s patience snapped. She retorted, “Yes, Joshua had indeed saved Melora then! But do you know
why Melora fell into the water in the first place?”
The Quinns were stunned by her outburst.
Anxiously, Audrey clenched her fists. Didn’t the fever affect Melora’s memories? Did she somehow
remember what happened?
our
Julia spat disgustedly, “Your daughter Audrey pushed Melora into the water! Back then, David and I
had
doubts about what happened, and two years ago, we hired a hypnotist to see Melora. Melora
successfully recalled her memories of what happened, proving that Audrey was the culprit!”
Naturally, Audrey would never admit to her crime.
She looked toward Henry and protested, “I didn’t do it!”
Everyone ignored her claims.
The revelation put Georgina at a horrible disadvantage. She had been counting on using Joshua’s
deed to pressure Crystal into donating her bone marrow.
Henry frowned and declared. “Crystal can’t be a suitable match!”
What?
Georgina was unconvinced.
She looked at Crystal suspiciously and asked her in anguish, “Are you like your mom? Do you still hold
a grudge against Joshua? Is that why you refuse to save him?”
Scoffing, Crystal announced, “I’ve registered as a bone marrow donor since I was twenty! You would’ve
known by now if I was a match for Joshua.”
A devastated Georgina slumped to the ground..
She looked at Crystal blankly. The young woman suddenly seemed like a stranger to her.
What will I do if she can’t save Joshua?
Georgina’s gaze slowly traveled to Skyler.
Hope sparkled in her eyes as she muttered, “Skyler is blood-related to Joshua too. Maybe she-”
Before Crystal could say a word, Henry interjected angrily, “What are you suggesting? How dare you
get Skyler involved in this!”
At the same time, he kicked Georgina, sending the oblivious woman rolling across the floor.
The whole fiasco made David’s head hurt.
He used to think of Joshua as a decent man, but it seemed the Quinn patriarch could not even keep his
family affairs in check.
David took matters into his own hands. He stepped in between Crystal and Georgina, and declared,
“We wouldn’t stop Crystal from helping you if she was indeed a suitable and willing bone marrow donor.
But she will never agree to a bone marrow match test as Joshua’s daughter. And Skyler… she’s simply
too young. How could you even suggest using a child as a donor?”
Still, Georgina refused to give up.
Meanwhile, Rhea pleaded, “Please, David. We have been friends for years.”
David merely returned coldly, “You probably mean how you leeched off our family! I bet you and Joshua
knew about Audrey pushing Melora into the water but kept it a secret from us to manipulate us into
repaying your ‘kindness’ all these years!”
Their actions nearly broke Henry’s family apart.
How much have we suffered because of them? Yet now that the Quinns are in trouble, they’re
shamelessly coming here. to demand our help as though they’ve done nothing wrong!
David promptly summoned the butler and instructed. “Never open the door for any of the Quinn family
members again.”
