Chapter 202 I Will Not Touch You

Crystal didn’t want to go to his place. However, she was even more unwilling to have a romantic candlelit dinner with him, as it simply wasn’t suitable for them.

She stared at the desk with her phone in her hand.

In the end, she replied softly, “Okay. I’m getting off work half an hour later.”

With that, she ended the call, then took a few thick folders and stuffed them into her attaché case. Still feeling that it wasn’t enough, she added a few more folders inside.

When she left the office building. Henry’s car had already arrived.

He has been driving the black Maybach a lot recently!

Seeing that Crystal was walking over, Henry got out of the car and walked around to open the passenger seat door for her. As he was doing that, he glanced at her hand and gave her a half-smile. “You’re working so hard even on the weekend? Do you even have a personal life at this point?”

His tone of voice was always laced with a hint of mockery.

Pretending not to notice, she got in the car and fastened the seatbelt before turning toward him. “The workload is quite heavy lately. By the way, Madison and Zachary divorced. Thank you.”

Obviously, he didn’t wish to talk about that has-been couple. Staring ahead, he uttered, “Let’s pick Snowy up from your condominium. I’m sure that puppy must be bored out of its mind.”

Crystal didn’t object.

He drove all the way to her condominium, and she went upstairs to bring Snowy downstairs.

After Snowy got in the car, it barked aggressively at him twice.

Henry refused to be mad at a dog and simply stated, “Why does it dislike me? I was the one who brought it home.”

Hearing that, Crystal rubbed Snowy’s head and replied to him, “Maybe it’s because you two have the same characteristics and gender.”

Then, she smiled lightly.

Henry’s gaze darkened.

She has never smiled like this in front of me for a very long time. Ever since we broke up, in fact. To me, this soft smile is as beautiful as the melting of the first snow!

He could not help but want to kiss her.

Perhaps Crystal sensed his intention, for she immediately dropped her smile and looked ahead quietly.

A faint grin appeared on his face. Then, he stepped on the gas pedal and drove toward the mansion.
