Crystal's One Night of Love

It was six in the evening when Henry brought his wife and kid back home.

Skyler had tired out from playing, so Henry carried her in his arms while Crystal walked by his side.

In the lobby, the family caught the curious glances of Seeas Corporation’s employees.

The CEO has such a gentle expression on his face!

Upon reaching the parking area, Henry secured the child in the booster seat, adjusted his posture, and signaled for Crystal to take the passenger seat.

Before Crystal got in, he lifted his hand and brushed her shoulder.

“What’s wrong?” Crystal shot him a puzzled gaze.

With a soft gaze and a surprisingly gentle voice, he answered, “Considering I’ll be working late tomorrow, how about you and Skyler come over and accompany me?”

Knowing his intentions, she deliberated for a moment before replying, “I need to take Skyler to see my mom in the afternoon, but I can bring her over in the evening.”

Henry didn’t say anything.

Thinking he might be upset, she was surprised when he enveloped her waist with his arms. In a bold move, he leaned down and gently kissed her lips, right in front of the busy entrance of Seeas Corporation.

She ran her tongue over her lip and protested, “Don’t just kiss me like that!”

Henry’s gaze darkened.

After a long while, he smiled. “Get in the car. I could use a smoke.”

He never smoked in Skyler’s presence, but an overwhelming urge was nagging at him right

then.

Without protesting, Crystal entered the car ahead of him.

Henry leaned down to light a cigarette but ended up smoking only half of it before extinguishing it, opening the door, and sliding into the driver’s seat.

Subsequently, the black Maybach petered out from sight.

Meanwhile, a beautiful woman sat in a white BMW in the parking lot. Her malevolent gaze remained fixed on the trunk of Henry’s vehicle.

This woman was Audrey.

Crystal is back! That kid’s alive and kicking, living the good life. The three of them look like a seriously happy bunch.

Audrey’s gorgeous face twisted with rage. Her knuckles whitened from how hard she squeezed the steering wheel.

I hate it so much! I couldn’t even catch a glimpse of Henry in the past three years. Yet, what had he done? He had only kept Crystal in his mind!
