Chapter 141 Sleep In The Master Bedroom

Crystal was overwhelmed by unease.

“I’m heading downstairs,” she muttered.

Henry stared at her silently and only uttered h oar sely after some time, “I’m sorry, Crystal.”

He watched as she practically scurried away before lowering his head and lighting a cigarette.

Twenty minutes later, a pleasant aroma wafted from the kitchen, which Henry immediately recognized as Crystal’s cooking.

He stubbed out his cigarette and headed to the dining room.

After serving him some spaghetti, Crystal tried to leave but he sat down and grabbed her hand. “Stay with me.”

She shook her head and said firmly, “Henry, if you weren’t injured, I wouldn’t even be here!”

Crystal was very calm. Perhaps she felt numb after crying many times at night. Facing him did not hurt as much.

Henry’s eyes turned gloomy but he respected her wishes. Not in the mood to enjoy his food without her company, he finished it quickly.

Crystal pointed at the couch after fetching a blanket from the guest room. “I’ll sleep here tonight.”

Henry’s gaze darkened. “Sleep in the master bedroom. It’s not as if we’ve never slept together before. Besides, I’m not going to do anything!”

Crystal was not so naive as to believe him.

Henry has strong sexual cravings and will undoubtedly become aroused once we get into bed together Besides… it’s over between us, so there’s no need for any more ambiguity.

“It’s better to keep things clear,” she refused flatly.

Exhausted from drinking and forcing herself to sober up, she curled up in the blanket on the couch and promptly fell asleep.

Henry gulped as he watched her sleep. He entered his bedroom and grabbed his quilt, which he
