Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 224 Three Years Later

Three years later, Crystal and Sophia emerged from the airport.

Outside, Pete was waiting for them while swinging his long legs. Seeing them, he took off his sunglasses and pulled Sophia close before he planted a passionate kiss on her lips, causing a blush to spread

her face.

Crystal couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

Sophia was just nineteen, and Pete was such a smooth operator.

Pete had taken over the music center. He had inherited his family’s business acumen, and his skills were no worse than his father’s. He managed the music center with such finesse that it expanded all the way to Hulcaster.

He also won Sophia’s heart.

When Seth found out, he had beaten Pete to a pulp. However, to everyone’s surprise, after Pete and Sophia got together, he became a completely different man. There was no more drinking and no more womanizing from him. He was now the epitome of a devoted boyfriend.

When Sophia was in Sumanthova, he visited her every month.

Crystal returned to Barnwood as Anna’s leg injury from before was starting to hurt again and she had to be treated in Barnwood.

She had invested in several Ferropenian restaurants and would occasionally go there to play the piano.

She was a mature, beautiful, and financially independent woman, so it wasn’t surprising that she had a long list of admirers.

However, she wasn’t interested.

At the CEO’s office on the sixty-eighth floor of Seeas Corporation, Henry was seated behind his impressive desk.

He had his head lowered as he reviewed some documents. The light from the full-length windows behind him bathed him in a soft glow, enhancing his already handsome appearance,

Jamie pushed the door open and entered.

She looked at her boss, feeling envious of the good looks the heavens had bestowed upon him.

At thirty-three years old, he was in his prime. Every aspect of him exuded the charm of a mature man, and women who wanted to be with him lined up from one end of the city to the other.

Jamie gently placed a folder on the desk.

Henry put down the pen and picked up the folder to take a look.

Jamie cleared her throat and said, “Crystal is back!”

Henry was taken aback.

He looked up at Jamie. In a slightly hoarse voice, he asked, “She’s back?”

Feeling the pressure. Jamie nodded. “Yes, she’s back. She might stay in Barnwood for a while as Madam Anna requires treatment for her leg.”

Henry didn’t ask any further.

He opened the folder, only to see several photos of Pete and Crystal. Despite their lack of intimacy in the photos, it was enough to make him feel uncomfortable.
