Chapter 128 Let Us Break Up

The room was deathly quiet.

Suddenly, the words tumbled out of Crystal’s mouth. “What woman who simply sleeps with a man prepares dinner for him to come home to? Didn’t you take advantage of me, Henry!”

Henry swallowed.

He did not know how much pain his indulgences had caused Crystal.

He stared at her.

After a long time, he said softly, “I didn’t know it bothered you so.”

Crystal gave a self–deprecating laugh.

Returning his gaze, she said bluntly, “I take it seriously because it bothers me. I can’t stand the thought of it, Henry. So what?”

Suddenly, she regained her calm. Her voice fell flat and lifeless.

“Let’s break up, Henry.”

Henry stared at her.

A moment later, he spoke. “Are you breaking up with me over what happened tonight? Has it occurred to you that things between us are not going to end if I didn’t want them to, Crystal?”

Crystal’s eyes grew red.

Of course I know that.

She knew all too well what Henry was capable of. He did not want to get married so he could keep having fun. On the other hand, she, Crystal Winters, must have been the most interesting woman he had come across, seeing as he was still not sick of her yet.

What a scum. Go to h*ll!

Clenching her fists to restrain herself, Crystal maintained her nonchalant tone.

“We don’t have to break up. If you are ever in need of anything, Mr. Miller, I’m only a phone call away.”

Henry stared at her. His tone was light. “So you saying that you would come to the apartment and sleep with me if my needs arise? Are you moving out of our home, Crystal?”

As soon as he spoke, he took a step forward and pinned Crystal against the television cabinet.

The screen illuminated their intertwined figures and made them look particularly odd at his amorous advances.
