Crystal's One Night of Love
Chapter 162
Chapter 162 Do Not Torture Me
The banquet was organized quite impressively.
The exquisite cuisine surpassed all expectations, and the grand venue had the capacity to accommodate up to two hundred guests. Emelia had even managed to secure the attendance of a renowned host from Barnwood. The overall atmosphere was nothing short of spectacular, leaving everyone in high spirits.
As one of the partners, Crystal had the responsibility of socializing and engaging with the guests, which often involved sharing drinks and exchanging pleasantries.
However, she wasn’t alone in navigating these interactions as Madison drank quite a number of drinks on her behalf.
At that moment, both of them were touching up their makeup inside the restroom.
Crystal cast a worried glance at her friend. “You drank quite a lot earlier. Are you okay, Madison?”
“It’s not a big deal. What’s the worst that could happen?” Madison arched her eyebrow and playfully tugged at her collar, revealing a hint of her chest. “Pretty seductive, isn’t it? Charles is quite fond of this. Whenever we’re in bed, he likes to act like a playful dog and nibble on any part of my body he desires.”
As she spoke, she giggled.
However, Crystal knew her friend wasn’t doing well.
Madison hadn’t truly moved on from her failed marriage with Zachary. Those sexual encounters were merely a temporary escape, a way for her to distract herself from the pain and emptiness she felt inside. But when she woke up from her drunken slumber, the hollow feeling in her heart would return, haunting her once again.
Crystal patted the woman’s shoulder. “You’ve drunk too much, Madison.”
With a smile, Madison pushed her hair behind her car and subtly changed the subject, asking Crystal about her own private matters.
While John was in the hospital, Madison paid him a visit and coincidentally ran into Henry. It was during this encounter that she learned that Crystal and Henry had not completely parted ways.
When she asked Crystal about it, the latter answered truthfully, “We haven’t reconciled yet, so there’s that. We’re still just friends with benefits.”
Madison paused for a moment before informing her, “Audrey’s getting married! The wedding is happening in a couple of days. The Miller Family went to the Kingdom of Brundela to attend the wedding, but Henry chose not to go. It seems like he wants to maintain some distance.”
Crystal was slightly stunned. I didn’t know that.
As Madison had consumed quite a lot of alcohol, she rested her head gently on her friend’s shoulder and let out a weak cry. “I feel like both of our hands are tied. Crystal. We fell in love with men that we shouldn’t have!”
She felt disappointed in Zachary, and her relationship with Charles was nothing more than a friends- with-benefits arrangement.
However, as time went on, she couldn’t help but develop genuine feelings for Charles.
It wasn’t something she wanted, but it happened anyway.
With teary eyes, Madison said, “Don’t end up like me, Crystal. Marry a good man!”
Crystal knew her friend had drank too much.
To prevent Madison from causing a scene, Crystal gave Charles a call. Initially, Charles assumed the caller was Madison, so he said, “When are you going back? My luck with the cards is souring. I’ve lost a lot of money.
Crystal answered, “It’s me. Madison’s tipsy, so can you come and pick her up?”
Without delay, he tossed his cards onto the table and exclaimed, “Where? I’ll be right there.”
Charles arrived soon after, wearing casual yet neat clothing. As he walked in, a faint scent of a woman’s perfume lingered around him.
Crystal didn’t like that.
