Chapter 207 Surprise At Hulcaster

Business trip?

Henry sobered up even before drinking the hangover remedy.

Releasing her, he leaned on the cabinet behind him. He wanted to smoke a cigarette, but considering Crystal’s throat hadn’t been feeling well lately, he gave that thought up.

Crystal handed the cup to him. “It’s a project from Mr. Zelcest, and it’s quite good.”

Henry couldn’t help but say, “It’s compensation for helping him babysit his son, isn’t it?”

Crystal felt that it sounded harsh, but that was the truth.

Henry sat on the island countertop and took a sip of the hangover remedy from time to time. “Is Pete going too?”

From his tone, Crystal knew he was unhappy.

In truth, she didn’t need to explain anything to him, but if she didn’t, he wouldn’t let her go tonight. After some consideration, she said, “This case is technically all for him. How do I explain it to Mr. Zelcest if 1 don’t bring him along? Besides, I’m not going alone with him. A total of six of us will be going”

Henry said nothing, indirectly implying he approved.

He put his hand into his pocket again and touched the small velvet box.

When they were watching a movie previously, he already used his hand to measure the width of Crystal’s ring finger.

He had been wanting to give the ring to her for a while now but couldn’t find a good reason to. Eastamor would be the perfect opportunity for him to do so.

She might not accept it. However, a person as kind as Crystal would definitely understand his feelings and intentions. An example would be how she still tried to comfort his grandmother that day even though she had her own regrets.

Now that Henry had developed feelings for Crystal, he wanted to bring her to Old Mrs. Miller’s tomb so his grandmother could see the woman.

However, he stopped himself.

One day, when Crystal was finally willing to wear his ring on her finger, then he would bring her over.

Crystal was going on a business trip tomorrow morning, so she didn’t stay the night. Hence, Henry asked the driver to send her back.

The spacious and luxurious living room with the crystal chandelier suddenly seemed a lot lonelier after Crystal left. Henry sat on the couch and took out the velvet box.

When he opened it, a fifty-two-carat diamond ring came into sight.

The diamond was perfect, and any woman would love it if they saw it!
