Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 113 She Has Me Behind Her

Zachary’s words brought silence upon the private room.

Someone gave him a nudge. “Enough, Zachary, Go pick up Madison. It’s unbecoming for men to argue with women, isn’t it?”

Having had a lot to drink, Zachary was tongue–tied.

He just refused to accept what was going on. “All I’m doing is have a good time with a girl. Madison isn’t even complaining, so who gave someone like Crystal the right to do so? Who does she think she is?”

The room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.

Henry let out a chuckle.

He wiped his mouth with a napkin before getting to his feet. “I’m leaving

Someone persuaded, “Please stay, Mr. Miller. Zachary had too much to drink and doesn’t know what he’s talking about. Why don’t we punish him by getting him to down three shots?”

Flashing a smug smile at Zachary, who had fully regained his senses, Henry said in a nonchalant tone. “You were asking just now who Crystal thought she was, weren’t you? Let me tell you, she has me behind her! I can’t even bring myself to raise my voice at her, so who are you to criticize her?”

Only then did Zachary realize what was going on.

A smirk subsequently emerged on Henry’s face. “Honestly, I had no intention of coming today, but I decided to do so on the account that Madison is close to Crystal. Fine. Since you’re not going after her, I’ll take Madison home on your behalf.”

Henry left the moment he finished.

A long silence prevailed in the room until someone patted Zachary on his shoulder. “You better go apologize to Mr. Miller. Not that I want to lecture you, Zachary, but you can’t take thuse women seriously regardless of how sexy they are. Clementine has a terrible reputation, so you better not do anything foolish. Otherwise, you’ll just end up as a laughingstock in everyone’s eyes.”

Zachary gave his face a wipe, and having regained his senses, he asked hesitantly, “What about Henry’s feelings for Crystal?”

I don’t suppose he’s serious about her?

Henry was known to be a workaholic and someone who wasn’t keen on marriage. He refused to believe that Crystal had captured Henry’s heart.

Zachary’s question elicited laughter from others in the room.

“Whether Mr. Miller will end up with Crystal is one thing, but his feelings for her are obvious to all. Have you ever seen him publicly put someone down? Or defend the honor of another woman? I’m sure you haven’t, so, my friend, congratulations on what you have done!”

Zachary set out in pursuit of Madison.
