Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 283 Nothing Going On 

A faint smile appeared on Crystal’s face as she removed her coat gently.

“Does how I treat my husband have anything to do with you, Miss Chamber?”

Lara bit her lip, putting on an innocent expression. “You’re his wife. You shouldn’t keep putting yourself out there and making him feel bad!”

Crystal scoffed. “Why, did my husband complain to you about this? Did he tell you how miserable his life is from having a wife like me?”

Before Lara could answer, Crystal warned, “Think about the consequences before you lie.” She took two steps forward, gazing at Lara. “It must’ve been hard for you to get to where you are now. If I were you, I’d cherish my current life instead of trying to seduce someone else’s husband with that face.”

Lara’s lips quivered. “You looked me up?”

Crystal patted her own coat. Dealing with a girl like her was akin to merely lifting a finger.

She was only being merciful out of consideration for Henry.

“You’re too aggressive, Mrs. Miller!” Lara whined. “Mr. Miller will never fall for a woman like you.”

Crystal smirked. “What kind of woman do you think he’d like, then? One who cheats and sleeps around with other men from a young age? Or a troublemaker who smokes, drinks, and takes money from her clients?”

She understood Henry.

He used to like Audrey’s fiery passion when he was younger.

Now that he was more grown up, he preferred a docile woman, especially one who obeyed him in bed. Of course, he certainly didn’t mind a few occasional surprises.

The man always had good taste.

Crystal’s smile vanished. “I’m giving you one last chance, Miss Chamber. Don’t ever appear in front of my family and me from now on. That includes Henry. There’s a limit to my patience.”

With that, she signaled Joel to open the car door.

The way Joel bowed while subserviently opening the door for her annoyed and tickled her at the same time, and she shot him a glare.

The other bodyguards hopped into their respective vehicles.

Then, the few luxurious sedans departed one after another, leaving a thinly-clothed Lara standing outside and shivering from the cold.

She had miscalculated her moves.

She had assumed Henry would be unable to resist a young woman’s temptations and easily crawl into bed with her.

Yet, she could barely even meet him, let alone sleep with him.

That was why she had no choice but to come look for Crystal, but the latter was a lot smarter than she had expected.
