Chapter 8 Aren’t You Here to Be With Me?

When Crystal woke up again, she found herself leaning against Henry’s shoulder, and a large hand was supporting her waist. Crystal took a whiff of his scent, which was a mix of some woody scent and aftershave. It smelled so nice that she thought it was one of the best aphrodisiacs in the world.

Meanwhile, Henry was on the phone.

His voice was suppressed, but he sounded quite stern.

He wasn’t supposed to be making calls in the infusion room, but he was so handsome that all the ladies nearby were staring at him. Their gazes were so strong that they bore into him.

When Henry hung up the call, he realized that Crystal had woken up.

Her pale face was tinted pink, and her eyes had an innocent look in them because she had just woken up; it was quite alluring.

Henry asked calmly, “How long are you planning to lean on me?”

Crystal hastily got up, blushing.

Henry picked up his coat and put his phone away. Then, he looked at her and said, “I’ll send you back.”

Crystal didn’t want to trouble him again, but Henry insisted.

He received another call on the way to her house. After a few exchanges, he said to Crystal, “I have to go back to my apartment for a fax. I’ll send you home when I’m done.”
