Chapter 122 If Not Him.

Crystal refused to get down from the car as she remained seated in her spot, looking upward at him.

There was a perpetual look of sorrow etched on her smooth face, and her eyes bore a permanent hint of moisture as if on the verge of tears.

Yet, Henry bent over to lift her into his arms.

“I’ll carry you if you don’t want to walk.”

Fearing embarrassment, Crystal told him to let her down. “I don’t want to be a part of your scandals.”

At that, Henry put her down.

He continued staring at her, raking his gaze from her cheeks to her shoulders, then to her dress.

After a long beat, he hoarsely said, “You’re wearing a nice dress.”

Hearing that, Crystal flushed crimson with rage.

She had been by his side for a long time, so she more or less figured out that he had a high sex drive. Any time she dressed a little nicer, he would be turned on and would want to get intimate with her.

Crystal was not at all honored by that, however.

At the end of the day, she was just a toy to him–Audrey was the one he truly treasured.

When they were at the hotel reception, Henry took out his identification and a few thousand in cash.

The receptionist sneaked a glance at him when she was registering his details,

Henry was a famous man in Barnwood, and he was the top bachelor in the city. However, she had heard that he had a girlfriend. Thus, she guessed that the pretty woman beside him had to be his girlfriend.

With nosy thoughts swirling in her head, the receptionist passed Henry a keycard.

“The keycard to three–six–zero–one. Enjoy your stay, Mr. Miller.”

Henry took the keycard from her.

Despite being in a hotel and about to engage in a private activity, Henry remained unbothered by the gazes of the others.

In contrast, it was Crystal’s first time being in a hotel with a man. She was stiff and awkward from the moment she stepped into the lobby.

Once they were in the elevator, Henry pinned her against the wall and grabbed her chin before kissing her.

Crystal was unable to avoid him, for every time she shifted away, he would press his knee against her.

Crystal’s body went weak.
