Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 134 A Life For A Life

Robert stood there without moving. His muscles felt rock solid, and he had a dangerous look in his eyes.

He stepped back and walked away. As he brushed past Henry, he heard the latter, who had been born into a privileged background, say frostily, “I don’t like others touching what’s mine.”

in his tracks for a moment. I’ve known Henry for a long time, but this is the first time I’ve seen him display any signs of possessive behavior. He was never interested in anything in the past, especially women. Perhaps I was wrong. Perhaps someday, he’ll be willing to walk down the aisle. That’s because that person is Crystal. Because of her, he’ll want to get
