Chapter 178 I Only Want Crystal

Henry walked out of the private room his shirt stained with blood mostly belonging to Robert.

He stood in the corridor, lit a cigarette, and puffed on it slowly.

No matter how much he resented Robert, there was some truth in the latter’s words.

While Henry and Crystal might appear to be equals in their relationship, in truth, the latter was always the one compromising. Her sacrifices were simply expected due to the difference in their family backgrounds, whereas he never even cared.

Robert was right; he had caused Crystal to sacrifice her feelings as a woman.

Henry continued to smoke.

He was extremely popular with the women due to his good looks and noble background.

Robert had a lover at Orchid Club who resembled Crystal slightly.

She had met Henry once at the police station previously and noticed the unusual look he gave her, so at present, she couldn’t help but harbor some daring thoughts about him. Even if he didn’t want a long-term relationship with her, just one night would suffice.

With her heart racing, the woman walked over and touched Henry’s charming face. “Would you like to me to drink with you, Mr. Miller?”

Henry was immensely picky and despised being touched by unfamiliar women.

Given that he had also drunk some liquor, he shoved the slender woman aside, causing her to crash into the wall across them and cry out in pain.

The clubhouse manager rushed over after hearing the commotion.

This was no major issue, but Henry was utterly taken aback upon taking a closer look at the woman’s face.

He kicked the door to the private room open and pushed her inside.

The manager hurriedly followed them in and apologizes, “Please forgive her, Mr. Miller. She doesn’t know her place.”

Henry sat down on the couch.

With his head lowered, he lit another cigarette and began smoking again, his gaze fixated on the woman.

He was so dashing that she tensed up in nervousness.

“Come here!” Henry suddenly ordered.
