Crystal's One Night of Love

Crystal should be happy, but she didn’t feel that way.

Her investigations revealed that Adroit Law Firm didn’t stop sponsoring Lara.

Brushing a finger across the window, she muttered to herself, “What a b’stard. What should I do?”

Right then, someone knocked on the door outside. “Miss Winters!”

“Come in!”

The person who came in was Ryan, the vice president of Seeas Corporation. He gave her an important. document. “I need your signature on this, Miss Winters.”

Crystal took the document from him and read it twice carefully before signing her name on it.

Ryan took the document but didn’t leave her office instantly. Flashing a smile, he said, “Miss Winters, if there isn’t a business dinner tonight, you should consider taking a break. Your favorite actress has a performance this evening!”

Crystal’s brows twitched.

It wasn’t hard to guess what Ryan was getting at. After all, she was a mature woman.

However, he had never crossed the line, so Crystal couldn’t reject him directly.

Feigning ignorance, she replied cheerfully, “Are you talking about the one who sings the soprano beautifully? Henry asked me to watch her performance together earlier, but I’m not free, unfortunately.”

Ryan walked out of her office with a faint smile.

Half past four that afternoon, Henry’s car rolled to a stop in front of Seeas Corporation. After he got out, the employees who saw him bowed to him and greeted, “Mr. Miller!”

Henry nodded silently and went to the gym on the second floor.

It was snowing in Barnwood, but Crystal was sweating because of her yoga session. Beads of sweat dotted her nose, too.

Hearing his footsteps, Crystal turned over her shoulder and looked at him quietly.

Dressed in a black turtleneck and matching slacks, complemented by a gray coat, the man with defined features exuded a distinct air of elegance under the light.

Crystal, on the other hand, was dressed sexily. Even her damp hair looked alluring.

She gave him a smile and told him to take a seat before continuing with her training.

Feeling displeased with her reaction, Henry took off his coat and placed it on the bar as he asked casually. “Where are your bodyguards and assistant?”

“I’m at work, so I don’t need that many people following me around.” After completing a set of moves, Crystal stopped and leaned against the bar. “How was last night?”

Henry’s gaze turned dark. already there, yet she still asked the obvious.

Instead of finding that annoying, however, he was charmed.

Crystal knew men well.

Henry wasn’t that lustful. He guessed that she had found out about Lara leaving the law firm but she was still able to keep her cool.
