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.”
