Chapter 13 5 I Am In Pain Too

Gently, Crystal placed her hand over her heart after speaking.

It hurts and it is really painful!

She had never thought that she and Henry would have such an ending.

Henry stared at her, his gaze disconcertingly intense. Crystal had never seen him like that before.

She had a nagging feeling that he would slap her at any moment.

However, the slap did not come.

Henry did not hit her. Instead of being angry, he was amused. “I recall you giving Melora an amulet before, and yet you want her life now?”

Crystal smiled in response.

Glancing at Henry, she said, “Mr. Miller, we’ll be fine if you allow us to be.”

Henry swallowed imperceptibly. Mirroring her smile, he said, “You’re brilliant, Crystal. I can see why Seth and Robert fell to you.”

Gently, Henry grabbed her chin and leaned forward.

His tone carried a hint of danger as he said, “Unexpectedly, Miss Winters is covered in thorns. It makes me want to pluck them for you.”

Crystal’s eyes dampened, and her nose turned red.

She knew that Henry was making a compromise.

Although her body had relaxed, it was becoming harder to bear the furtive pain. She knew that the pain came from her stomach, but she had no idea precisely where.

Crystal’s face paled as she tried to hold it in.

Dazedly, she said, “Please see yourself out.”

It’s over.

She and Henry were over. Everything was over.

As if he echoed her thought, Henry got up briskly and left John’s incriminating evidence on the table for her.

Striding to the door, Henry hesitated and turned around as he gripped the door handle.

Over the years, he had always acted decisively and ruthlessly. He was rarely indecisive like how he was now. He wanted to know if she was truly unwilling to stay by his side. He wanted to know if she would refuse to listen to him.

However, when he turned around, he saw Crystal lying by the coffee table. Her slender body was curled up, and her face had lost its color.
