Chapter 156 He Was There

Crystal pushed him away.

In a cold tone, she said, “I neither have the right to be angry nor have the need to be angry.”

“But you are.”

Henry easily pulled her back into his arms

The man’s sex drive seemed particularly high in the morning. As he pressed his thin lips on the back of her soft neck, he started nibbling on her skin, seemingly desiring to engage in a certain arduous task in bed.

Unable to stand it any longer, Crystal uttered, “Henry, I thought you needed to go to the hospital.”

“I’ll go once I’ve made you happy.”

Crystal was livid.

She kicked her leg backward to strike him, but he caught her leg between his legs. Then, he pressed her against the sink, their position an embarrassing one.

Once Crystal was under his control, Henry asked, “Did you miss me the past few days?”

His voice was magnetic and seductive; any woman would be attracted to it.

Crystal let him hold her down, but she did not respond to his question.

A beat after, she frigidly replied, “No.”

No?

But Henry did not believe her.

He remembered how passionate and enthusiastic she had been when they were together. That was why he asked her that question, yet Crystal told him she did not miss him at all.

Henry felt disappointed.

Crystal seemed to be apathetic toward him now.

In the end, he held her tightly and kissed her. “Crystal, let me keep you company.”

However, she gently pushed him away again.

In a tone even more glacial than before, she told him, “No. Henry, our relationship has long ended. It isn’t appropriate for us to do this, and I don’t want to become a woman you come to for these things.”

At that, Henry straightened up and tidied his clothes with a furrow on his brows.
