Chapter 208 All Hers

Under the resplendent lights, Henry stood there and stared at Crystal.

He saw her smiling as she focused on Seth.

For the past few days, she had been cold toward him and barely smiled. Yet, when she looked at Seth, the could not help but smile happily. Is Seth more important and attractive than me?

Henry did not want to appear jealous and make himself look petry.

Despite that, he found himself making his way toward them. He took a glass of red wine from the waiter and said to Crystal with a grin, “That’s enough. Am I that good-looking?”

Crystal was already used to his lack of shame.

She gave an apologetic smile in Seth’s direction.

Naturally, Seth understood. Although he lived in Hulcaster now, he was still well-informed of Crystal’s

matters.

Crystal had returned to Henry because of Charles and Madison. Then again, Seth could tell that things were not quite the same between the two of them.

Hence, Seth decided to mock him. “Henry, you must be so worried to have come all the way to Hulcaster. Some people may think that you are here for Eastamor. Others may think you are being too paranoid!”

When it came to conflicts between men, not only did they want to slaughter one another in the business world, but they refused to lose even in an argument.

Since Henry was a lawyer, he had no issue with engaging in a verbal duel.

With his hand holding the wine glass, Henry let out a relaxed chuckle. “I don’t think there is any worthy competitor in Hulcaster! Crystal, what do you think?”

Crystal gave him a glance, a clear sign she wanted him to stop his nonsense.

Henry inched nearer to her ear and whispered, “Oh? Are you worried about him?”

Crystal whispered back, “Henry, you came all the way here to pick a bone with me, didn’t you? I just bumped into him here by chance. I didn’t do anything. There’s no need for you to behave in this manner!”

“I’m jealous!” said Henry bluntly before he stared at her with his eyes ablaze.

His brazenness while under the watchful eyes of the crowd was too overwhelming for Crystal, and she began to blush.

The smile on Seth’s face gradually disappeared.
