Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 206

Chapter 206 Not The Cold Shoulder

They got along for two more weeks, but their relationship was still lukewarm.

Every time Henry wanted to go on dates, Crystal almost always played along, but she was cool, calm, and collected. It was unlike her past self.

Henry was growing more and more unsatisfied, mostly because she was playing it too coolly. He would rather see her throw a tantrum. Even a slap was better. She used to be a willful woman, after all.

It wasn’t until this point that he realized that she would only get physical and more expressive when she loved him. Now that she had fallen out of love with him, she was always polite and would never cross him. If she wanted to, she could leave right away.

To hell with that!

Henry was at a club, drunk. His circle of friends was there as well, including Robert.

Charles almost never came for any more gatherings after he married. He only showed up because he heard Henry was there. After all, it was all thanks to the latter and Crystal that he and Madison could get married.

Charles patted Henry’s shoulder. “How do you feel? I can give you a ride home if you can’t drive.”

Henry leaned back on the couch, puffing smoke into the ceiling like a sexy and disgruntled businessman.

There were a few ladies in the room, and they stole glances at Henry. No one tried to hit him up, however, as Henry was known to be aloof and distant. They could only admire him from afar.

Charles knew what was on Henry’s mind, and he grinned. “With your looks, who wouldn’t fall in love with you?”

“Shut it!” Henry shot him a sideway glance and complained, “Crystal is a perfect example. I’ve been nothing but earnest and genuine to her, Charles, but she just won’t warm up to me. She used to be so passionate about me. She’d blush every time she saw me, and she loved doing it with me.”

Charles laughed dryly.

She’s a lady. She’s different from us guys. Of course she loved doing it with you when she loved you, but if she’s fallen out of love with you, ser is just a chore.

He didn’t want to stoke Henry’s flames, however, so he persuaded Henry to go home. “You’re drunk, Ill take you home. You have a court proceeding to attend tomorrow, don’t you?”

Henry shot him another look and tossed Charles his phone. “Call Crystal. She should still be at the music center at this time. Tell her to pick me up.”

Charles was floored. I can’t believe he’d be so shameless.

laughed dryly again. “Are you sure you’re actually drunk, or is that just an act?”
