Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 260 Are You Still Mad 

Henry returned quite late in the evening, around nine o’clock.

Crystal was accompanying Skyler to play the piano.

Skyler, dressed in a skirt, sat up straight, playing with grace and poise.

Henry took off his coat, tossed it on the couch, then walked over and leaned beside Crystal. “She just got discharged from the hospital. Why didn’t you let her rest for a couple more days?”

He cared for the child but he also couldn’t bring himself to blame Crystal.

Crystal smiled faintly. “She wanted to play.”

She caught whiffs of alcohol on him and asked in an undertone. “Did you attend a social gathering?”

Henry chuckled, gently caressed her back, and said softly. “Make me a plate of spaghetti. I didn’t eat much tonight and only drank most of the time.”

Complicated emotions filled her gaze,

She got up, about to go to the kitchen to make him a plate of spaghetti when he wrapped his arms around her and lowered his head to press his nose against hers.

“There were young ladies there, but I didn’t let them get close to me. Crystal, I won’t do anything to upset you.”

Crystal flushed bright red and bit her lip. “I didn’t say anything!”

Henry riveted his pensive gaze on her. “But I wanted to keep you informed.”

Crystal couldn’t withstand his gaze, which was filled with a clear, amorous look unique to a man whose libido was high. She glanced at Skyler, hinting at him to show some restraint.

Only then did Henry let go of her.

He sat down beside Skyler, stroking her curly hair. “Why did our precious daughter become so diligent all of a sudden?”

Skyler stopped playing and climbed onto Henry’s lap. She kissed her father and said, “Queenie Leeson played the piano at the kindergarten today, and Christopher kept staring at her!”

She hung her head, looking dejected. Queenie has been learning piano for a year and plays better than me!

Henry couldn’t help but laugh. She’s so young, yet she’s already feeling jealous!

He held his daughter. “In that case, you must practice harder than usual, Skyler. Then, you’ll definitely perform better than her!”

Skyler blushed.
