Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 204 Still On It

Henry held his phone tighter as he nodded. “I’ll head over right now.” He put the phone down and looked. at Crystal.

Crystal had heard everything, so she said softly, “Go. Be careful.”

Henry gulped. He wanted Crystal to tag along and meet his grandmother, but given their current relationship status, she might refuse, and even if she did tag along, things would be awkward.

Henry mused for a moment before murmuring. “I might be busy for a bit.”

Crystal didn’t give him the cold shoulder like usual. Instead, she nodded.

After she got out of the car, Henry suddenly rolled down the window and said, “Crystal…”

Crystal waved him off. “Go.”

Henry gave her one last glance before stepping on the gas. It took him two hours to get to the eastern outskirts where his grandmother resided. Given that the air quality was good there, it was the perfect place for her to recuperate.

Perhaps it was time for the elderly woman, as she began talking gibberish during the evening. The nurse swiftly made a call, and David showed up. One look at his mother, and he knew she would pass soon, so he quickly summoned the whole family to send her off.

David was Old Mrs. Miller’s firstborn, and Henry was the most outstanding person of his generation. Old Mrs. Miller thought highly of him, so she was holding on just to wait for Henry to show up.

Henry parked his car and quickly came to Old Mrs. Miller’s room. The Millers made way for him, and David leaned closer to his mother, whispering. “Mom, Henry has come to see you.”
