Crystal hurried to the nursery.
Remi had fallen ill, running a fever of thirty-nine degrees, and his petite face was all flushed.
Filled with concern, Crystal swiftly changed her attire and instructed the housekeeper, “Prepare the car.
We need to head to the hospital immediately!”
The panic in her voice was a clear indicator of her overwhelming anxiety.
Henry squeezed her hand and said, “The driver will take at least half an hour to arrive. I’ll drive you
there.”
With that, he scooped Remi into his arms.
With his tall stature, he effortlessly cradled the child in his arms as Crystal hurriedly followed close
behind.
The night air was chilly.
After Crystal opened the back door and settled inside the car, Henry handed Remi to her, and their
eyes met in a meaningful exchange.
Henry murmured, “Crystal, no matter how disappointed you are in me, Skyler and Remi are still my
children. I can’t just leave them be.”
Crystal’s eyes welled up with tears at that, but she kept her silence.
This is not the time for us to be arguing…
The black car sped through the night, and after half an hour, they arrived at the hospital.
Following an examination, it was confirmed that Remi had acute pneumonia. While the situation wasn’t
severe, the doctor recommended a week-long hospital stay for his recovery.
Being just a few months old, having an IV drip was quite a distressing experience for Remi. As such, it
didn’t take long for his cries to echo throughout the room.
Crystal felt her heart aching upon seeing her son like that.
As the night grew deeper, Remi’s body temperature finally dropped to thirty-eight degrees.
Seated by the bedside, Crystal gently caressed her son’s tiny cheeks as a wave of guilt washed over
her. She realized that the frequent relocations hadn’t been good for Remi’s health.
Meanwhile, Henry watched them quietly as he stood by the window.
All along, he had been observing her from a man’s perspective, but Crystal, being a young mother, only
had eyes for her children.
She looks so vulnerable and fragile right now…
With that thought in mind, Henry couldn’t help but approach her. He gently brushed his fingers through
Crystal’s long hair as he guided her head to rest against his abdomen. She must have been exhausted
because she didn’t pull away.
In fact, she even closed her eyes, seemingly finding comfort in his touch.
Alas, the heartwarming scene only lasted for a brief moment before she gently pushed him.
“Get some rest,” Henry said hoarsely. “I’ll keep an eye on Remi.”
Crystal responded with a soft hum, but she knew she would not be able to fall asleep.
She fetched a warm towel from the bathroom and gently wiped Remi’s body. Once done, she went
back to the bathroom to wash the towel.
Standing behind her, Henry asked softly, “How did we use to get along in the past?”
Still holding onto the towel, Crystal stiffened when she heard the question.
She knew him all too well to understand that his actions that night and the question he had just posed
were clear indicators of his desire to mend their family. With a composed tone, she replied, “What’s the
point of asking this now?”
Resting his head on her shoulder, Henry murmured softly, “Crystal, can you tell me, please?”
Crystal offered a faint smile and replied, “You’re not him.”
She then pushed him away lightly and added in a firm tone, “Henry, we’re divorced. Apart from our two
children, there’s no need for any interaction or ambiguity between us. You should leave in the morning.”
Henry felt a hint of disappointment when he heard that.
Under the dim yellow light, he gazed at her and uttered softly, “Remi is my son too, you know?”
Perhaps he genuinely wanted to be a good father, for he chose to remain at the hospital over the next
few days.
Soon, Remi’s condition improved significantly, and he was scheduled to be discharged the day after
tomorrow.
Sitting in the ward, Crystal was in the midst of reviewing some documents when she looked up and
saw Henry expertly feeding milk to Remi. His proficiency had notably improved over the past few days
of practice.
As he cradled Remi’s plump little body in his arms, Henry wore a gentle and warm expression.
Crystal quietly watched them.
For a moment, it was as if she was witnessing the pre-amnesia Henry who had treated Skyler with the
same gentleness. A wave of sadness welled up in her, causing her eyes to moisten slightly.
Suddenly, Henry raised his gaze and noticed her emotional state.
Embarrassed that her vulnerable side was exposed, Crystal murmured, “I’m going to get a cup of
coffee.”
With that said, she stood up and smoothed out her shawl. Henry didn’t stop her. He could sense that
she had been reminiscing about the past and the man he once was.
Exiting the ward, Crystal finally let out a sigh of relief.
On the hospital’s ground floor was a coffee shop. She ordered a cup of coffee and settled down,
cradling it in her hands as she sipped it slowly.
To her surprise, she ran into someone she knew.
It was Zachary and Lara.
The former appeared rather impatient. He had only slept with the woman before him a few times, and
now she was getting clingy, insisting on meeting him in person. It was becoming quite a hassle for him.
Zachary fiddled with the cigarette between his fingers and asked, “What is it? Are you running short on
money again?”
In response, Lara slid a pregnancy test report across the table and uttered softly, “That’s not why I’m
here… Mr. Cramer, I’m pregnant.”
Zachary scoffed. “Don’t try to pin this on me. I’ve always taken precautions!”
Lara lowered her gaze “The first time we were done, you suddenly got into the mood again.
At the mention of that, Zachary recalled the moment they had shared back then.
However, he also realized that the woman in front of him had deliberately skipped taking the
contraceptive pill.
She intentionally got herself pregnant. Ugh… this is annoying.
After a moment of contemplation, he said gruffly, “I’ll give you some money to abort it.”
He was only willing to give her two hundred thousand.
Lara pursed her lips and said softly, “I want to keep it.”
Zachary stared at her intently. After a moment, his lips twitched, and he was about to say something
when a family of three entered through the café’s entrance.
It was Madison and Charles.
They were there to visit Remi, and upon noticing Crystal, they came over to say hello.
To their surprise, Zachary was present as well.
As the former couple met, tension filled the air. Madison felt rather uneasy while Zachary snapped his
cigarette in two between his fingers, his gaze fixed on the woman he had once loved and been married
to for years. A mixture of emotions surged within him when he saw that she was now being affectionate
with another man and that they already had a child. Yet, there he was, negotiating terms with a woman
who sold her body.
Looking back at Lara, his tone turned resolute. “Abort it, and I’ll give you five hundred. thousand.”
Lara wanted to persuade him again, but Zachary cut her off by writing a series of checks and coldly
uttering, “Now get lost.”
Recognizing the situation, Lara understood that she couldn’t possibly keep the child.
While Madison and Charles headed to the hospital ward, Crystal remained seated, still sipping her
coffee.
Zachary walked over and took a seat across from her. He had an intent look in his eyes as he stared at
her.
Seeas Corporation being his company’s major financial backer was something he had never imagined.
He never thought that one day he would be working closely with Crystal, and he certainly hadn’t
expected her to change so much.
I’ve made a lot of mistakes in my youth…
As he pondered about it, he realized that there were certain matters he could only discuss with Crystal.
He began, “Crystal, I know you might mock me if I say I regret it, but I truly do. No matter how many
women I’ve been with, it doesn’t compare to the love Madison had for me.”
He wished he could turn back time, but he was aware that such a possibility was forever lost.
Crystal smiled faintly in response.
Zachary’s gaze darkened as he said, “Crystal, you’ve really changed a lot.”
Having known each other since their youth, the passage of a decade brought a certain bittersweet
feeling to their renewed interaction.
Crystal simply remained smiling.
Since she had agreed to invest two hundred million in Zachary’s company, she figured she should be
cordial with him.
As he continued staring at her, Zachary’s thoughts drifted as memories of Madison resurfaced.
A moment of silence passed before another person joined them and took a seat.
The person was none other than Henry.
It turned out that when Madison and Charles arrived at the ward earlier, he decided to come over in
case Crystal might be feeling down alone.
To his surprise, he saw the woman was having a rather pleasant conversation with Zachary.
Naturally, a tinge of jealousy crept into his heart when he saw such a scene, and he realized. that
Crystal was someone who would draw a lot of attention. With her striking looks, she could easily charm
anyone if she wanted to…
Upon that thought, Henry asserted his presence, his tone carrying a gentle note when he said, “Why
have you been sitting here for so long?”
While Zachary might be considered a scoundrel, he was undeniably a man, and he could easily detect
the jealousy exuding from Henry.
A sense of satisfaction surged through him. Oh, how the tables have turned! I wonder how he’s going
to win back his wife’s affection now.
Standing up, he adopted a courteous tone and said, “I’ll be heading to Seeas Corporation in a few days
to finalize the contract.”
Crystal nodded in response.
The moment Zachary left, Henry started probing. “He wasn’t hitting on you, was he?”
“Are you crazy?” Crystal didn’t want to deal with him any longer, so she adjusted her scarf and got up
from her seat.
Henry grabbed her wrist. “Crystal, wait!”
Crystal brushed his hand away, and as she walked toward the restroom door, Henry caught her and
pulled her into the ladies’ room.
Separated only by a thin partition from the other cubicles, she didn’t dare to shout. As such, she could
only lower her voice and say, “Henry Miller, are you out of your mind?”
Henry’s arm encircled her waist, pulling her close. He then leaned in and brushed his lips. against her
delicate neck as he spoke in a husky, almost unrecognizable voice. “Promise me you won’t get
involved with other men.”
“We’re already divorced!” Crystal exclaimed.
“But I still want you! I want you to be my wife! Crystal, please give me a chance!” Henry pleaded.
Crystal retorted, “You’re insane!”
Unbeknownst to them, on the other side of the partition stood Lara, who was covering her mouth in
disbelief, unable to believe what she had just heard.
She couldn’t wrap her mind around the fact that Henry had fallen in love with Crystal.
How is it possible that the man who has always exuded such dignity to the point where I don’t even
dare to approach is now pleading for a woman’s love like this?
