Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 176 He Has Yet To Let Go.

Crystal made a trip to the condominium the next day.

She had hired some guys to replace the curtains with the original ones and dump the vases into the trash.

All of her clothing and accessories, both used and unused, were packed up and sent to an auction house.

Everything that belonged to Crystal was disposed of, including Morning Dew.

In just one day, all traces of Crystal had been removed from that condominium. It was almost as if she was never there.

Crystal stared at Snowy, the stray dog that Henry had adopted in order to please her back then.

Since Snowy had barely been eating well while she was gone, Crystal decided to take the dog with her.

Having stayed with Henry for about six months, that dog was all that remained. Crystal donated the fifty million that she received from Henry, the clothes, accessories, and Morning Dew to a charitable organization.

Crystal felt a dull ache in her leg after she was done taking care of everything. The pain reminded her of the bizarre nature of her fruitless relationship with Henry.

Two days later, Henry was working at the office after handling a huge case that shook the entire world.

Things were starting to look great for him until Jamie knocked on the door and entered his office.

“Miss Winters came over yesterday and asked me to hand you this,” she said softly while handing him an envelope.

Henry took the envelope over and examined its contents. In it was the key to his condominium.

He stared at the key in silence for a few seconds before asking, “Have you checked the place? Did she take her clothes and jewelry with her? If not, I want you to send them all over to her. I have no use for them, so there’s no point in me keeping them around.”

Noticing the conflicted look on Jamie’s face, Henry asked, “What’s wrong?”

Thinking it would be inappropriate for her to answer that question, Jamie decided to give him a vague response instead. “You’ll find out once you get home tonight, Mr. Miller. All I can say is that Miss Winters. has indeed moved out.”

Henry found her reply rather strange, but he didn’t give it much thought and carried on working.
