Crystal's One Night of Love

Crystal was taken aback.

She then smiled faintly and remarked, “Having a child changes things naturally! We can’t be as noisy as before and set a bad example for her.”

As she spoke, her expression was gentle.

Henry had always liked it when she acted this way. It was late at night, and they were alone while their child was asleep next door.

He couldn’t help but feel a stir of emotions.

He gazed at her. It was an instinctive look of a man observing a woman.

Crystal sensed the change in his emotions.

She redirected the topic subtly. “You should talk to Skyler soon. It’s getting late…”

In other words, she was telling him to come back in the morning to pick their daughter up. Henry raised his arm to glance at the time.

He fixed his gaze on Crystal and realized she didn’t really intend for him to stay the night. However, he was quite tempted. In a low voice, he said, “I’m quite tired, and there’s an important meeting tomorrow morning. I’ll sleep in the guest room so I won’t disturb you.”

Crystal readily agreed.

She brought him to the guest room but didn’t follow him in.

After tossing his suit jacket onto the bed, Henry spun on his heels and noticed she hadn’t come in. He smirked and asked, “What’s the matter? Are you afraid of me?”

Crystal avoided answering him. “I’ll get you some toiletries.”

Henry said nothing and merely stared at her.

After Crystal left, he sat at the end of the bed and gently tugged at his tie

Frustrated, he reached into his pocket, but instead of finding his cigarettes, his hand brushed against a small, hard box- the gift he had bought for her from Hawen.

Henry held onto the small box, his gaze flickering with uncertain emotions.

When Crystal came in again, Henry was sitting at the end of the bed, smoking.

He had one hand supporting himself on the mattress and the other holding a cigarette. His distinctive features stood out, exuding a strong masculine aura. Seeing Crystal enter, he narrowed his dark eyes. “Do you have a razor?”

Crystal replied gently, “I don’t have that here.”

Puffing out smoke, he stretched out his hand. “Give me the toiletries.”

Without doubting him, Crystal handed him the toiletries, but Henry didn’t take them. Instead, he delicately clasped her wrist and applied a gentle pull, leading her to tumble onto the bed.

His burning body covered hers.
