Chapter 117 He Knows

Crystal was mind blown as she heard that.

She didn’t like playing games when it came to romance. All she wanted was to be with the person she loved. Even if that person wasn’t Henry, she firmly believed that she would meet the right one eventually..

The woman ran off, terrified by Seth’s words.

Back in the gazebo, Seth returned to his usual demeanor and gazed at Crystal’s back expressionlessly.

Seeing that she had left her sweet–looking cocktail unfinished, the man picked up the glass, ran a finger across the edge where her lipstick stain remained, and downed the glass contents.

Women like Audrey weren’t hard to find in their circle.

They were always spoiled and willful like her.

The only difference was how they looked.

Crystal, however, was different. She had many desirable traits that most women in this circle didn’t. At the same time, she wasn’t small–minded due to her decent family background. She was practically the perfect wife.

Robert simply didn’t cherish her.

Meanwhile, Henry was too busy trying to maintain his dignity that he probably didn’t have time to tend to her.

A glint flashed in Seth’s eyes.

If you don’t know how to appreciate your girl, Henry, then I’ll do it for you.

Crystal walked into the banquet hall, having prepared herself prior.

Seth had told her that Henry and Audrey were dancing, and while she had imagined how enchanting they looked, seeing them in person was a completely different matter.

Indeed, the two looked perfect together. They seemed very much in sync with each other too, with Henry’s hand on Audrey’s waist and the latter spinning around him.

The elders watched on with a hint of sorrow in their eyes, lamenting over what a pity it was that the two made such a lovely pair but ended up going their separate ways.

Crystal observed the scene in silence, feeling thankful that she hadn’t dived too deep.

Thank goodness we’re not actually engaged. There’s no way I’d be able to handle watching this if we were.
