Chapter 121 Call Me Your Darling

The entire room fell silent.

The men who had been drinking and playing poker fell silent to look at Crystal.

Audrey remained seated by Henry’s side, making it look as if she was the queen of the area.

Crystal was stumped.

If she were to say that she was joining in on the fun, someone would point out that she was not invited to the event.

Yet, the relationship she had with Henry was not enough for her to say that she was there to catch him red–handed in cheating.

Zachary had a fight with her a while back, so he was the first to target her. In a sarcastic tone, he said, “Oh my, what winds brought you here, Crystal? Why don’t you stick around and have some fun with us?”

Crystal turned to Henry, who was dressed casually that day in a black shirt and a pair of black. pants.

At that moment, he was sitting on the couch, smoking.

The promiscuous way he acted was something Crystal had never witnessed.

Henry glanced at Crystal, but he did not do anything to help her out of the awkward situation. Perhaps he was unhappy.

All of a sudden, Audrey leaned over to peck a kiss on Zachary. With a half–smile on her face, she said, “Zachary, stop teasing Miss Winters. I doubt a girl like her can be this uninhibited.”

Crystal tightened her fists.

Again, someone was implying that she was reserved and not a good sport. Are Audrey and Henry parroting each other?

Henry’s gaze was dark the entire time.

After a while of staring at Crystal, he finally said, “Crystal, go back first.” His words embarrassed Crystal. It made her seem as if she had come to catch him red–handed in cheating but did not have the ability to actually confront him on the act.

Zachary snorted, feeling amused and vindicated.

Right then, someone else said, “All right, all right. Let’s not pressure Crystal anymore. Let’s go back to what we were doing before.” With that said, the scene turned lively again.

Just then, a voice softly said, “I can be uninhibited!”

It was so soft it nearly went unnoticeable to everyone.

Nevertheless, Henry heard it, and he knew that Crystal was the one who spoke.

Narrowing his eyes, he ordered in a sterner voice, “Go back first, Crystal.”
