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.

Staring straight at Crystal, he uttered slowly and clearly, “I haven’t lost my mind. Instead, I’ve come to my senses. Let’s start over again. This time, I’ll be good to you.”

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.”
