Chapter 191 Taking Your Woman Away

Henry’s words left Jamie unsure of how to respond.

She could not help but feel that Henry was being deliberate.

After Jamie left, Henry took out his phone and tapped on the photo album. There was a picture of Crystal sitting and playing the piano; it was a serene and beautiful moment captured. He looked at it for a while, only to suddenly realize that despite their intimacy in the past, they did not even have a single photo together.

Henry gently caressed the photo.

These past few days, Crystal had been ignoring him and showing nothing but resentment.

The resentment was toward the words he had said the other night, for not being there when she needed him, and for his ruthless actions toward the Murray family!

However, what she did not know was that even if she did not agree, he would not truly harm Jake. Her easy compromise was a reflection of her lack of trust in him.

Henry let out a bitter smile. “Darn it!”

After work, Henry drove to Crystal’s music center.

Crystal happened to finish work as well. She was sitting in her newly purchased champagne-colored BMW. There was a driver in the front seat because she was not able to drive.

Through the glass, Henry could not see the driver’s face.

However, based on his intuition, he was a tall and decent-looking young man.

Henry felt a bit uneasy.

Nevertheless, he had to deal with this uneasiness on his own. The reason that Crystal cannot drive was indirectly caused by him. Moreover, considering the situation involving Seth, he dared not simply inquire about her personal matters.

The BMW slowly passed by. The rear window was open. He could see Crystal’s face. He could even hear her speaking gently to the person in front with her tender voice.

Henry did not move.

After a moment, he texted Crystal. Must the driver be so young?

He waited for a long time. However, Crystal did not reply.

He could not help and asked again. But this time, Crystal had blocked him on WhatsApp!

Pete was driving the car.

In fact, he had seen Henry, the pretentious and prude lawyer. Seeing him upset like that made Pete satisfied. He deliberately asked, “Was that old man who drove the golden Bentley just now one of your exes?”

“We broke up!” Crystal said.

Then, she pressed further. “How did you know?”

Pete licked his lips. He excitedly replied, “I had a beef with that guy before!”

Normally, Crystal would have deducted a hundred from his pay for what he said. However, this time she remained silent. Pete figured it out, and said, “Seems like you really fond of him! Don’t be fooled by his look. Those lawyers usually do shady things. Karma will get back at them by making them bald real soon.”

Crystal ignored him.

Pete stroked his handsome chin, and muttered to himself, “By his standards, my charm is irresistible!”
