Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 151 You Gave Me Up

The next day, Crystal left work earlier than usual.

Both Crystal and Ritchie received invitations to a banquet organized by individuals from the arts and culture scene, so they arranged to meet outside the hotel.

The lady at the front desk gave her a warm grin. “You look stunning today, Miss Winters.”

Her remark put a smile on Crystal’s face.

She pressed the elevator button and stepped inside, but the moment she entered, she froze in place.

Henry was already in the elevator, leaning against the wall with a cold and indifferent expression. as if he had been waiting there for a while.

Instinctively, Crystal wanted to turn around and leave, but Henry reacted even more quickly.

Thud!

He forcefully pinned her body against the elevator.

Crystal hesitated to make any movements, feeling trapped as Henry’s arm firmly pressed against the wall, blocking her chest. The slightest shift would result in intimate contact, as if she was inadvertently inviting him to engage in a closer connection.

All she could do was meet his gaze and ask, “Mr. Miller, what do you want from me?”

Henry stared deeply into her eyes. “Are you attending a banquet? With Ritchie?”

Crystal tried to restrain her anger. “Mr. Miller, we’ve already ended our relationship. I can attend any banquet or date whomever I want.”

Henry withdrew his arm, taking a step back. His voice carried a hint of uncertainty. “Do you have feelings for him? Are you happier with him than you were with me? I don’t think you can forget. about me, Crystal.”

Crystal’s eyes turned red.

She had indeed enjoyed some sweet moments with Henry, during which she was captivated by his charm as a mature man.

When she was with him, the pursuit of fame and fortune also brought her great excitement.

Crystal firmly believed that no woman could resist the allure of Henry’s gentle seduction. Falling in love with him was as natural and effortless as breathing for any woman.

He consistently avoided defining their relationship, giving the impression that the only aspect of her that he desired was her body.

Whenever she asked him if he loved her, he would always respond, “Look, Crystal. I’m sorry, but I can’t give you what you want!”
