Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 249 We Have A Kid 

In the living room of the Miller residence, David magnanimously said while pointing to Alfred’s mother, “This is Grandma!”

Berthold seemed shy.

Nevertheless, he still approached Lucia and threw himself into her arms. Holding the adorable boy, Lucia felt troubled.

Rather than joy, she felt a sense of guilt.

She was already quite old, but she still insisted on holding Berthold, and she even gave him a kiss.

She initially brought gifts to try to fish in troubled waters and bring up marriage on behalf of her son. With the current circumstances, it was a given that all the gifts were for her grandson now.

Alfred sat beside Lucia, his gaze fixed on the child. After a moment, he looked at Melora sitting across from him.

Melora didn’t deny it. “Yes, we have a child together.”

Alfred gently closed his eyes.

He calculated the timeline and realized he must have gotten her pregnant the last time he visited Barnwood.

Moreover, she must have discovered she was pregnant when she went to Coldbridge.

In what state of mind was she in when we broke up back then?

Alfred desperately tried to think but found that they were trapped at a dead end.

He was no longer a naive young man. Other than her love for the child, she must have resented him for her to leave home for two years and raise a child alone..

Alfred’s gaze darkened.

Suddenly, he remembered what Henry once said, “How well can an unmarried woman in her thirties who doesn’t come home do?”

While he was lost in thought, Henry returned with Crystal.

Looking at the lively living room, Henry chuckled. “What’s the occasion? Why is everyone here?”

He walked over to ruffle Berthold’s hair and greeted Lucia.

Lucia was fond of him, not to mention she needed his help now. She couldn’t help but favor him even more at the moment.

Henry brought Crystal to take their seats.

He glanced at his father.

David looked at his son too.

They were trying to pass the ball to each other. Neither of them wanted to play the villain in this situation! In the end, Julia called out tearfully, “David!”

David didn’t want to lose face in front of his wife. Taking a sip of coffee, he smiled and said to Lucia, “The kids are too immature. Let’s see what they have to say.”

Lucia gradually stood up to speak her mind.

Crystal thought she shouldn’t be there, so she brought Berthold outside to play.

With the child gone, Lucia found it much easier to act.
