Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 266 Do Not Take It

At two o’clock in the afternoon. Henry returned to the mansion first to pick Crystal up swinging by the kindergarten for Skyler.

“Skyler, your parents are here.” The teacher smiled.

Skyler, in her floral dress, said proudly. “Mommy and Daddy are going to get their wedding photos taken. I’m going to get mine taken, too!”

Everyone in the class laughed, including the teacher. “I’ll take you to them,” she said.

The teacher took the little girl’s hand and led her to Henry. The former liked Skyler so much that she felt a little reluctant about handing her over to Henry.

Skyler waved her hand and said, “See you tomorrow, Miss Wall!”

As soon as Skyler got into the car, she fixed her gaze on Crystal’s belly. “Mommy, when will

brother be coming out? Do I need to go to sleep for him to come out?”

my

That left Crystal speechless.

Henry put on his seatbelt and answered with a smile. “You’ll need to sleep many nights before your little brother comes out.”

Skyler seemed a little disappointed, but she quickly pulled herself together. “The other kids at school say their fathers want babies too, so they work hard to plant carrots every night. Daddy, did Mommy’s belly become big because you planted carrots?”

Crystal’s cheeks turned as red as an apple.

Henry, who was about to start the engine, exchanged glances with Crystal through the

rearview mirror.

He chuckled in a suggestive way, making Crystal’s face feel hotter.

It was only after some time did Henry let her off. He stepped on the gas pedal and explained to his beloved daughter, “The kids aren’t exactly right. You’ll find out when you grow up.”

Skyler trusted him, so she stopped asking questions.

Henry focused on driving and did not say a word. After all, his wife and daughter were in the

car.

Half an hour later, they arrived at a high-end bridal studio.

The second the car pulled up, the manager stepped forward to open the door for them, smiling professionally. “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Miller. We’ve cleared the studio to provide the best service for you.”

Henry nodded approvingly while carrying Skyler out of the car. The little girl seemed exceptionally excited, skipping as she followed beside her mother.

Crystal picked a beautiful dress for Skyler.

On the second floor, the employees took the couples to try on their wedding outfits.

Henry did not take long to get changed. His outfit was a black velvet coat paired with a white

shirt.

The combination made him appear young and noble.

The young employees could not help but stare at him.

Henry remained emotionless. He simply sat in the VIP area and waited for Crystal and Skyler to finish changing their outfits. Skyler was the first to come out. She looked beautiful in the champagne-colored tulle dress and with her curly hair tied up with a hair band.

It was Skyler’s first time getting all dolled up.

She felt a little shy and burrowed into her father’s embrace.

The employee smiled at the interaction. “The little girl looks beautiful. She looks like her mother!”

Lowering his head to look at the little girl whom he brought up. Henry felt his heart soften. He took her hand and brought her to the full-length mirror to let her view her reflection.

I really look nice! Daddy looks nice too!

Skyler’s eyes sparkled.

A smile formed on Henry’s lips. Just as he was about to speak, the changing room door opened, and out came Crystal.

Henry’s breath caught in his chest.

Although he had seen her every side, he was still stunned by her appearance.

The white wedding gown wrapped perfectly around her upper body including her slender waistline. The hem was decorated with complicated yet gorgeous lace.
