Chapter 293 An Immediate Divorce

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

Henry did not want to divorce.

Over the next few days, he persistently pestered Crystal and often showed up at Seeas Corporation

when it was time for her to get off work.

Everyone thought they were a lovely couple.

Crystal, however, felt mentally exhausted.

She had been accommodating to him in various ways, even tolerating his fiery temper and

inappropriate.

conduct in bed.

However, he overstepped her boundaries time and again when it came to matters concerning Lara. He

was fully aware of the woman’s ambitions, yet he persisted in letting her remain by his side.

It was as though Henry did not respect his wife.

In fact, he believed that as long as he didn’t engage in physical intimacy with other women, he could

still consider himself a faithful husband.

At five-thirty in the evening, Crystal signed the document and handed it to Edith. “Distribute these and

then feel free to leave for the day.”

“Miss Winters, Mr. Miller called and said that he wishes to pick up Skyler together with you,” Edith

informed.

Seeing that Crystal remained silent, Edith didn’t dare to say more. She departed the office while

clutching: the documents.

Crystal sat at her desk for a while, lost in thought. A moment later, she packed up her belongings and

left.

As she descended in the elevator, she remained deep in thought.

Henry’s persistent harassment and refusal to divorce have become unbearable. Now, he’s attempting

to manipulate my emotions by involving our child. Little does he know, it’s precisely our child that

propelled me to make this decision so swiftly!

Meanwhile, Henry sat comfortably on a sofa at the Secas Corporation lounge, radiating an air of

sophistication.

He was wearing a gray shirt paired with a classic black suit, and his chiseled features were radiant. It

was as though he was not a man on the verge of being divorced.

At Crystal’s arrival, Henry quickly stood up and graciously took her bag. “The kindergarten has an

event today, so the classes will run a bit longer. We’ll be able to make it in time to pick up Skyler,” he

said with a gentle smile.

He was an intelligent man; he knew that Crystal would not want to kick up a fuss in public.

Moreover, she wanted Skyler to be happy too.

As Crystal stepped into his car, Henry could sense her reluctance to engage with him. Every time they

met, her most frequent inquiry revolved around when he would finally sign the divorce papers.

Henry gulped before saying in a deep voice, “Buckle up!”

Crystal snapped back to her senses.

After she secured her seatbelt, he started the car and asked gently, “Shall we take Skyler out for dinner

later? Last night, she kept insisting on having dinner with both her parents.”

His words carried an unspoken message, and Crystal naturally caught on.

She remained silent for a brief moment before finally responding. “After our divorce, you’re welcome to

spend time with both her and Remi whenever you please.”

Henry’s fingers tightened on the steering wheel, his knuckles turning pale.

He inquired softly, “And what about you? Can’t I see you as well?”

Crystal was greatly saddened.

She had once made a promise not to give up on him, but now she was reneging on that commitment.

“Of course, we can meet. However, our relationship has changed.” She averted her gaze and

murmured.

Henry didn’t press further. It was a while later before he spoke, his voice barely audible. “Crystal, can’t

you forgive me this time?”

Crystal’s lips quivered.

There was so much she wanted to say, yet in the end, she kept silent.

Subsequently, he kept quiet too.

Silence ensued.

They reached the kindergarten entrance, where several parents were waiting to collect their children.

Crystal couldn’t afford to display any discord in front of outsiders. Thus, they walked side by side to

pick. Skyler up.

However, when she saw Skyler, she felt her blood run cold.

Skyler stood rooted to the spot.

Her large eyes had lost their sparkle, and her delicate fingers gripped her skirt tightly.

She seemed to have closed herself off.

Lara was kneeling in front of Skyler, her expression softening into a gentle smile as she attempted to

soothe the little girl.

“These candies are a present from me, Skyler. Do you like them?”

After a short pause, she continued, “Why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you like me? Your daddy

really adores me.”

The kindergarten teacher was in a state of panic.

Rage coursed through Crystal.

What the hell is wrong with Lara? How dare she! She resorted to harassing a child when she failed to

win Henry’s heart. How is she different from Audrey?

Lara began to sense that something was awry. A pang of fear gripped her, and as she looked up. she

spotted Crystal and Henry. She instinctively tried to defend herself, assuming an innocent and pitiful

demeanor. “Mr. and Mrs. Miller, I didn’t intend for this to happen. I don’t know how she ended. this!

Should we take her to the hospital?”

Crystal gently cradled Skyler in her arms.

Next, she lifted her hand and delivered two stinging slaps across Lara’s face.

Lara’s lip started bleeding, and one side of her face swelled. Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke

through sobs. “Mrs. Miller, I meant no harm!”

Crystal fought to compose herself and uttered tersely, “You’ll be held responsible if anything happens to

Skyler!”

With that, she lifted Skyler into her arms.

Henry tried to intervene. “Crystal, let me carry her.”

Without hesitation, Crystal forcefully pushed him away. At that moment, she couldn’t even bear to look

at him.

Had he not yielded to Lara repeatedly, had he not misled her, had he not assigned someone to look

after her, driven her home, and flirted with her, she wouldn’t have dared to harass Skyler. She thinks

she can have her way because Henry gives in to her time and again. Enough is enough!

Henry immediately chased after Crystal.

However, someone grabbed his arm. When he turned around, he saw it was Lara. Her voice trembled

as she uttered, “Mr. Miller, I didn’t mean for this to happen!”

Henry pushed her aside as he had no intention of engaging with her.

Crystal was already inside the car.

Henry opened the car door, got in, and turned to Skyler. The little girl remained motionless in her

mother’s arms, refusing to speak or react. This was the first time he had seen Skyler behave like this

since. his amnesia.

Clenching his teeth, he started the car and drove away.

Meanwhile, Lara touched her cheek and stood in a daze. When Henry pushed her away earlier, he had

been rough, not at all holding back his strength. Disgust had shone in his eyes as well.

Why did he look disgusted? Doesn’t he… like my looks?

After Crystal brought Skyler back home, she gave the girl a dose of calming medicine and then tried to

soothe her to sleep.

She stood beneath the osmanthus tree in the courtyard and relentlessly plucked leaves from its

branches.

Crystal’s heart ached intensely when she saw Skyler’s head hung low.

Draping a thick coat over Skyler, she crouched beside her to offer companionship. The night passed

quickly, and Skyler had stripped a small tree of its leaves.

Crystal gently hugged the little girl.

Just then, a wool jacket was placed over her shoulders. From behind, a deep, husky voice advised,

“You should put on more clothing. It’s quite cold outside!”

Feeling a strong aversion toward him, she threw the jacket aside and pushed him away.

Her abrupt movement caught Henry off guard, causing him to lose his balance and collide with the

nearby stone pillar. Blood began to trickle from his forehead.

It was indeed a shocking sight in the dimly lit night.

However, Henry simply wiped off the blood with his hand, not appearing overly concerned.

Crystal held back her emotions and said sternly, “Previously, Skyler was hurt by Audrey twice! Now,

Lara approached Skyler to win your favor, which led to our daughter closing herself off from the world in

her fright! Do you know that Skyler hasn’t had a relapse in a very long time? Henry, this is the

consequence of your condoning Lara’s actions. Look at what your flirtatious actions have caused!”

Why should I bear the burden of the consequences of his past romance? Why must my suffering

persist even after Audrey’s passing? Why is it that another woman soon appears and continues to

cause me pain? Her little sister, no less!

By then, Crystal wished for nothing but to distance herself from Henry.

Skyler managed to regain her senses in the latter part of the night.

She hurled herself into her mother’s embrace and whimpered softly.

Crystal understood her daughter was afraid, so she held the little girl close and gently comforted her.

The night air was chilly with the spring breeze.

Skyler’s cheeks were tinged red from the cold. She clung to Crystal’s neck while sobbing. “I’m hungry!”

Crystal kissed her forehead and assured her, “I’ll cook something delicious for you!”

With that, she carried Skyler indoors.

Tears of joy welled up in David’s and Julia’s eyes as Skyler was finally willing to speak.

David had braved the cold and remained faithfully by Skyler’s side all this time. He held her close and

peppered her with affectionate kisses, longing to shoulder her pain himself.

Meanwhile, Crystal was in the kitchen preparing food for Skyler.

Skyler dug into her food, savoring every bite.

“Thank you, Mom!” Crystal then sat down and quietly enjoyed the noodles.

While Henry observed the unfolding scene, an unfamiliar sensation washed over him, making him feel

like a bystander.

“Come over here!” David said in a stern voice.

Moments later, father and son were in the study.

Henry had just finished tending to his wound when David flung a paperweight at him.

With a finger pointed at his son, he berated angrily, “You fool! Is that woman really worth it? Look at

how much Crystal cares for the children! Do you think she would treat the children so well if she didn’t

love. you?”

Upon seeing Henry’s confused expression, David scoffed, “Sure, you might have forgotten all about

your past, but isn’t it clearly stated in your household registry that you have four family members? You

are Crystal’s husband and Skyler and Remi’s father! That woman brought this upon herself, so why are

you intervening?”

After venting his anger, David suddenly felt a wave of weariness wash over him.

In the middle of the night, the light illuminated the creases on his face clearly, alluding to his old age.

He waved his hand and sat down. “Perhaps this is fate. Crystal wants a divorce. Though your mother

and I are reluctant, Crystal once suffered from postpartum depression after giving birth to Skyler.

Henry, do as you wish from now on. I just need to make it clear that I won’t agree to let any shameless

woman be part of the family. The Miller family’s inheritance also belongs to Skyler and Remi. No one

else shall receive anything!”

Henry also took a seat quietly. Taking out a cigarette, he lit it.

After remaining silent for a moment, he said hoarsely, “Dad, I don’t want to divorce Crystal.”

David let out a soft sigh and spoke with a touch of sadness. “I’m a man too, Henry. I can understand

your thoughts. But do you realize that before your memory loss, you and Crystal shared a profound

love for each other? Your feelings for Audrey can’t even compare to what you experienced with Crystal.

The more Crystal loves you, the more disappointed she is!”

Henry sat in the room until dawn broke.

As the sky cleared, he slowly got up and went to Skyler’s room.

The little girl was fast asleep.

A row of delicate little fans adorned the bedside.

With her fair complexion and warm skin, she looked so tender and adorable.

Henry stared at her for a moment before giving her a gentle kiss.

He truly adored Skyler; she was such an adorable and elever girl!

He had an important court hearing in the morning, and the time was getting late. Hence, he returned to

Unexpectedly, Crystal was in his room. She sat quietly on the sofa, and it appeared as if she had been

waiting for him for a long time.

There was a divorce agreement placed on the coffee table.”

Henry’s heart skipped a beat.

Is she intending to skip the phase of living separately and directly ask for a divorce?

Under the faint early morning sunlight, Crystal’s face seemed particularly pale. Yet, she appeared very

calm. “Sign it!”

Henry stared at her.

After a long while, he shut the door gently and walked over to take the document. “Crystal… What

happened yesterday was an accident. I promise you that she won’t show herself in front of Skyler ever

again!”

To that, Crystal smiled coldly.

She had no wish to listen to his promises anymore!

All she wanted was the safety of her children..

She maintained her composure as she said, “Once you have signed the agreement and Skyler has

calmed down, I’ll take both the children and move somewhere else!”

Despite everything, Crystal was still quite upset.

She had been hopeful when she first moved there.

At the time, she thought that Henry might experience the warmth of a family. Perhaps, she was wrong

right from the beginning. A year ago, when he abandoned his family to save Lara, she should have

given up then.

Henry was still looking at her and noticed the tears at the corners of her eyes.

He threw the document back onto the coffee table.

Then, he went to the closet to change his clothes. However, he did not find anything suitable.

In the end, he stood there and said, “Do you think I have no feelings for you? But, Crystal… If that’s

really the case, then I wouldn’t have moved back with you!”

He refused to sign the divorce papers.

“Crystal, do you not love me anymore?” he asked.

Crystal replied calmly, “No, I don’t. Henry, I only want to lead a peaceful life!”

Henry had already changed into a shirt. He then took it off before trying another one on.

After a few more changes, he finally walked out of the closet.

He looked at her and said softly, “I don’t want a divorce!”

Crystal looked down with a faint smile. “I will find a way! Henry, if you don’t sign the papers, then don’t

blame me for hurting your darling!”

Henry sneered, “She isn’t my darling. You are!”

Crystal burst out laughing.
