Chapter 105 I Want Her

Henry glanced at Seth and then thought about the people in the restaurant. Everything became

clear in an instant.

Seth is still thinking about Crystal!

Henry lowered his head and lit a cigarette. “Are you here to pick up Sophia?”

Seth chuckled lightly.

He had witnessed everything earlier.

He walked over to Henry and borrowed a lighter. After taking a puff, he smiled and said, “I was going to send Crystal back, but since you’re here, I guess I’m not needed anymore. By the way, were you on a date with that famous widow from Hawen, and Crystal happened to bump into you?”

Henry frowned. “What the hell are you talking about?”

Despite Henry being only a few years older than Seth, his authoritative position commanded respect, causing Seth to tread lightly when teasing him.

Seth remained silent and glanced at the restaurant.

After finishing a cigarette, he started softly, “Henry, I’m serious! If you’re not interested in Crystal, then let me have her.”

Henry’s fingers, which were holding the cigarette, trembled slightly.

The neon lights of the city created alternating shadows on Seth’s youthful face as he expressed his resolute desire. “I want her!”

After uttering those words, Seth swallowed hard.

Without looking back at Henry, he confidently walked into the restaurant.

Henry stood still and finished his cigarette before letting out a cynical laugh.

That brat! Hah! He has guts.

When Henry entered the restaurant, he saw Seth seated next to Sophia. Seth remained silent, watching as Sophia conversed with Crystal.

His eyes, however, betrayed his affection for Crystal.
