The next morning, only Henry and Crystal were present in the dining room.
The housekeeper smiled. “Mr. and Mrs. Miller brought the children out!”
Henry was aware that his parents were creating an opportunity for him to be alone with Crystal. As
such, he went along with their wishes and turned to Crystal. “There’s a concert at two in the afternoon
later. Should we attend it after you feed Remi?”
Crystal was enjoying her meal silently.
A moment lager, she said, “I want to stay at home!”
Staring at her, Henry said, “It has stopped snowing outside, though. Don’t you want to head outdoors?”
“Not really!” said Crystal.
Henry was slightly taken aback by her response.
As he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he was very prideful. As such, he never expected he’d
be rejected by any woman.
This woman… Feeling slightly embarrassed, he didn’t insist on her going and planned to check on a
case upstairs later.
Just as he was about to rise, his phone rang.
It was from Lara.
Henry glanced at his phone, then at Crystal, and hung up the call.
Again, the phone rang and he still ignored it.
Theh, he turned to Crystal, whispering, “I won’t contact her again once her life is no longer in danger.”
Crystal settled her cutleries down and stared at him. “Why did you remove her from your blacklist? Are
you pitying her?”
“Crystal
“If she able to lie at the bottom of the mountain this time, she can jump off of a building next, Henry. If
you don’t answer her call, she’ll ask her classmate to pass her message to you. When that time comes,
the whole ruanon on will repeat itself.” A faint smile settled on Crystal’s countenance. “If it happened
once, it’ll happen over and over again.”
As she was too lazy to speak further, she returned to the bedroom to do some reading.
At noon, she didn’t dine with him.
When afternoon arrived, she practiced yoga in the basement, sweating all over.
Standing at the entrance, Henry held her phone. “Someone’s calling you.”
Crystal was stretching her leg when she heard that. Without delay, she went to him and thanked him.
Upon checking her phone, she saw it was from Madison.
Madison invited Crystal to an event as she had heard certain gossip from somewhere.
However, Crystal was feeling a little too lazy to accept the invitation.
Madison lay her head on Charles’ shoulder and touched his tall nose. “It’ll just be some old friends!
You’re living the best life any of us can hope for compared to the rest of us. You’ve got several hundred
billion in terms of wealth, a handsome husband, as well as a daughter and son. Come and join us.
There’ll be a mysterious guest there.”
Crystal chuckled. “Who is it? Why are you making them out to be so important?”
Madison refilled to reveal anything.
Wiping her sweat away, Crystal said. “Fine. Is it still the same clubhouse?”
“Yeah,” answered Madison impishly. Then, she lowered her voice. “Please doll up, okay? It’ll absolutely
be well worth the trouble.”.
Crystal couldn’t help but laugh. It’s nice to have a friend like Madison by my side throughout all these
years.
Her mood was lifted as she ended the call.
However, Henry scowled with jealousy. Though he couldn’t pick up everything that was mentioned in
the call, he could still guess that Crystal had agreed to join a social event.
As such, he leaned on the treadmill, displeased. “You said you weren’t free when I invited you to a
concert, yet you seem to have time when Madison suggests you two head out together. I want to come
with you!”
Crystal continued to jog on the treadmill, and said to him, “Madison didn’t invite you!”
“Bring me along!”
Cryal merely grinned, her intentions obvious.
After staring for a few seconds, Henry left.
It seems he has quite a temper.
At seven in the evening, Crystal prepared to depart.
Abruptly. Heary opened the bedroom door and stared at her.
She was wearing a golden dress with thin shoulder straps.
Ashe did wear any stockings, her slender, fair legs were shimmering slightly under the light.
She had a fur coat and a pair of high heels of matching colors
si that moment. Crystal looked especially gorgeous
Henry gulped and uttered in a deep hoarse voice, “Il send you there!”
“No ured Joel’s waiting for the already,” said Crystal
“Are you sure you want to attend the reunion in this? You’re a married woman, Crystal!”
Crystal smiled faintly. A married woman? Is he treating me like his wife? I bet that I’m just a pretty good
sex partner or the Miller family’s perfect daughter-in-law to him. It has nothing to do with love.
Without hesitation, she turned around and left.
When she got in the car, Joel praised, “You’re absolutely stunning tonight, Mrs. Miller!”
Distracted, Crystal said. “I am attending a dinner.”
Half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at Orchid Club.
Upon entering the building, Crystal spotted many old friends, exactly as Madison said.
It was a great opportunity for her to relax and have fun.
Merrily, Crystal removed her coat, settled on the couch at the corner, and chatted with Madison.
As much as she was trying to keep a low profile, plenty of people still aimed their gazes at her.
They were awed by her net worth and were curious about her marriage to Henry.
Madison, having heard about Lara, leaned toward Crystal and whispered, “How about you… you know,
get rid of her?”
Under the dim light, Crystal swirled her champagne glass.
A moment later, Crystal lifted her coffee-colored hair and grinned. “I’ll wait until she’s discharged from
the hospital.”
that moment, the atmosphere was pretty pleasant.
Madison was dragged into the restroom by Charles for some intimate actions. Despite sitting alone
there, Crystal still relished the moment.
“Crystall” A slender figure called out in a familiar voice and appeared before Crystal.
Rising her sight, she saw Robert. It’s been a long while since I met him.
Lifting his Chan slightly, Robert asked, “Can I sit here?”
Their past no longer bothered Crystal, so she replied, “Go ahead.”
Robert settled down beside her, but not too close.
They had known each other for too many years. They had loved as well as harmed each other before.
Hence, the fact that they could peacefully drink together touched him. “Are you doing all right. Crystal?”
Crystal grinned. “I’m doing pretty good. What about you? Have you gotten married yet?”
In response, Robert stretched his hands, revealing there was nothing on them.
Silence was Crystal’s response.
Hoarsely, Robert informed, “I was up north doing business some time ago. When I returned a few days
36
ago, I heard things weren’t going particularly well for you. Crystal, we aren’t spring chicken anymore, so
I won’t beat around the bush. Even though I’ve met plenty of women over the years. I must admit that I
have always loved you only.” I genuinely regretted my actions. Why did I abandon the woman who was
by my side during my darkest moments and was willing to care for me every day? I feel like I’ve been
wandering aimlessly for the past few years. Meanwhile, Crystal has been having trouble with her
marriage.
He begged Madison to provide him the opportunity to meet with Crystal. As such, he continued, not
wanting to waste the chance. “Henry lost his memory, didn’t he? He had forgotten that he loved you. If
it’s too hard for you, Crystal, perhaps you can consider returning to my side. I will treat Skyler and Remi
as my flesh and blood.”
After ending his sentence, he gazed at her quietly.
Still leaning back on the couch, Crystal swirled her glass.
Seconds later, she smirked. “Are you interested in bringing up someone else’s children because you’re
infertile, Robert? I suggest you visit an andrologist for your problem, or perhaps even a neurologist.”
What’s there left to consider between us?
With her mood ruined, Crystal grabbed her handbag, ready to leave.
At the last second, Robert clutched her tender wrist.
In response, Crystal flung his hand away. “I shouldn’t have spoken to you!”
A bitter smile was plastered on Robert’s countenance.
Regardless of his sincerity, he was not someone trustworthy as far as Crystal was concerned. As he
gazed at her stunning figure, he uttered, “You’ve changed a lot, Crystal.”
The photo album in his phone still had the picture of her resting by the dinner table, waiting for his
urn late at night.
That was the best relationship he had ever had.
Instead of reminiscing about the past with him, she left rapidly.
In the elevator, Crystal called Madison. However, the latter’s voice was trembling, likely because she
was stiff having an intimate moment with her partner. “You’re leaving? D-Don’t. I’ll… I’ll be right there
with you.”
Crystal was both enraged and amused. Oh, my…
After exiting the clubhouse, she realized she left her fur coat inside the building.
Holding her fair, tender arms, she thought about asking Joel to grab it for her because she didn’t want
to meet Robert again.
Suddenly, a black Rolls-Royce Phantom parked beside her before someone stepped out.
It was Henry.
He looked really good under the neon lights.
Drunk, Crystal took a while to find her voice again and sneered, “Why is it you?”
Upon removing his coat, Henry placed it on her.
After struggling twice, Crystal was ultimately covered by his giant coat, his pleasant scent traveling
from the coat into her nose.
Henry hugged her tightly, then he pressed his lips on her ear and uttered unhappily. “That’s enough for
tonight, Mrs. Miller.”
“Leave me alone! Let me go!”
“No, I won’t!”
At that moment. Robert sauntered out of the clubhouse.
He held Crystal’s fur coat in his hand. Upon witnessing the couple, he smiled and informed in a gentle
voice, “You left your coat behind, Crystal.”
Crystal froze slightly.
That situation was the last thing she wanted to get caught in.
Henry grew even more furious.
Henry glared at Robert as he hugged his wife.
Fearlessly, Robert stepped forward.
Turning sideways, Henry opened the door, stuffed Crystal into his car, and sneered at Robert. “Thanks
for that, Mr. Sloan.”
He tried to grab Crystal’s coat, but Robert refused to loosen his grip on it.
The two men were clearly battling each other, though Robert eventually relented.
Henry mocked, “If you’re feeling lonely, you should go for more blind dates, Mr. Sloan!”
Lowering his Bead with a grin, Robert lit a cigarette. “Even though Crystal’s married, she’s still lonely
enough to visit a clubhouse for fun. If she truly loves you, you wouldn’t be looking like her driver right
now, Henry
Henry shofted, “This is still better than you yearning for another man’s wife!”
Smoking Robert shot å glance at Henry. “That is true. Which is why I’ll start pursuing her passionately
from tomorrow onward! Perhaps I’ll move her one day!”
He was
enly half lying, but he knew, deep down, that Crystal would never accept him again.
Henry didn’t want to waste any more time on Robert.
Thus he marched to the driver’s seat and tossed the coat into the backseat. He was really bothered by
Robert’s words.
He lost much of his memories and didn’t know how much Crystal and Robert did during their
relationship.
As such, he wondered if they had kissed or even had sex before.
Henry drove at high speed.
Slowly, Crystal noticed something was wrong. Clutching her chest, she whispered, “Where are you
bringing me to?”
Henry remained silent.
His facial features appeared especially stern in the night
It reminded her of what he was like when they first met.
