Crystal's One Night of Love

Despite the cheerful atmosphere in the VIP ward, Crystal’s eyes were slightly moist, a detail that only Melora noticed.

Feeling sad about it, Melora made an excuse to get some fresh air outside.

Little did she expect to run into Alfred..

He had flown over in his private jet to visit Crystal and Remi after his meeting in Coldbridge was over.

It was at the ward entrance that he bumped into Melora, whom he had not seen in a long time. Having been busy, he was reminded of how much he missed her when he saw her in person. Noticing the tears welling up in her eyes, he spoke in a tone tinged with tenderness. “What’s wrong? Didn’t Crystal give birth to the baby successfully?” He handed the gift he brought to Leslie. “You go ahead and visit Crystal and her baby first.”

Knowing that it was not easy for the two to meet, Leslie nodded before entering the ward.

Alfred pulled Melora into the emergency stairwell and closed the green metal door behind them. Pulling

her hands away from her eyes, he asked, “Why do you always cry when you’re already an adult?”

“It’s none of your business!”

Melora turned her head away, her eyes red.

Alfred simply smiled. He lit up a cigarette and took a puff. “I suppose this is about Crystal, isn’t it?”

Having had her mind read annoyed Melora, but she soon felt even more miserable.

At the end of the day, I have someone who understands me in this world, but Crystal doesn’t.

For the first time over the past few months, Crystal didn’t give Alfred the cold shoulder. She burst into tears in front of the man she hated. “Everyone thinks that Crystal is happy, but I know full well that she isn’t. Henry may be back, but he doesn’t remember her, yet Crystal still loves him!”

If not for love, no woman can tolerate being neglected by her husband.

Alfred continued smoking in silence.

Even though he was aware of what Melora had told him, there didn’t seem to be anything he could do.

Crystal and Henry had gone through a lot and they used to love each other very much. Anyone in the know could never bring themselves to get Crystal to give up, and Alfred was no exception.

He felt bad for Crystal. What happened with Audrey was not her fault at all.

Henry had only done what was expected of a husband, yet Crystal had to pay for it for the rest of her life.

Alfred lifted his head slightly, a glint flashing across his eyes.

He thought about Krystal, himself, and then Crystal The children of the Lodge family are fated to suffer whet it comes to matters of the heart.

When Alfred entered the ward, Henry was escorting his parents out, leaving Crystal and Leslie behind.

At the sight of his boss, Leslie announced, “Mr. Lodge is here!”

Crystal attempted to get up but was stopped by Alfred.

“What are you doing? It’ll hurt.”

His heart aching. Alfred stroked her head and asked about the birth.

Crystal replied with a slight smile, “It’s all right. It’s a lot easier than giving birth to Skyler.”

Those words made Alfred feel worse. After playing with Remi for a moment, he said casually, “If you’re not happy, come back to Coldbridge for some time. Your granny isn’t fit enough to fly here, and she’s looking forward to seeing the two children.”

Knowing what Alfred was implying, Crystal shifted her gaze to Remi as she replied, “I’ll head over after a while.”
