Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 295 To Sign The Divorce Papers 

A beat after, Henry hoarsely said, “I’ll buy it.”

It seemed inappropriate for a woman to buy that anyway..

Crystal was not going to stop him from running the errand. Besides, he had been too fervent earlier, and the strength had fled her legs.

Half an hour later, Henry returned with the medicine.

Crystal was in the bedroom.

She took out the pill and downed it with some warm water, the sensation uncomfortable as it went down. her throat.

Having taken the medicine, she turned her head toward him and said, “You can leave now.”

Men often became more amiable after they fulfilled their physical desires. Despite Grystal’s dismissive. tone, Henry did not seem bothered. Instead, he crouched down by her side and spoke in a husky voice. “You’re delicate even when taking a pill. You weren’t this fragile just a moment ago.”

Crystal’s brows furrowed as she said in a low tone, “Henry, this isn’t entertaining for me.”

Henry could tell she was upset about Lara, and he leaned in to whisper, “I’m no longer concerning myself with her.”

“Is that so? Then, Mr. Miller, could you please explain to me about the two hundred thousand you gave her?”

She found out about it?

Henry’s mind raced, landing on Jamie as the most probable source of the revelation. She likely spilled the beans.

His fingers gently sifted through Crystal’s chestnut hair. In a hoarse voice, he replied, “Crystal, be merciful. ‘ I bear no feelings toward her. Trust me, okay?”

A faint smile tugged at Crystal’s lips.

Despite their recent intimacy, they parted on tense terms.

Henry’s stance against divorce remained firm.

He became more attentive, treating his wife and children with utmost care and consideration.

He was aware that Crystal had secured a place to live and that she was just waiting for him to sign the divorce papers.

Over the next couple of weeks, their interactions were limited. Even when Crystal returned, she spent her nights with Skyler.

After what happened, Skyler restarted her visits to a psychologist, and with time, Crystal grew even more distant.

Two more weeks later, at Adroit Law Firm, Henry closed the file before turning to Jamie and saying, “Book two plane tickets for a week-long business trip to Hulcaster.”

Jamie nodded. “Of course, Mr. Miller.”

As Jamie turned to leave, Henry halted her. After a moment’s contemplation, he asked, “You have a good. rapport with Crystal, right? Could you perhaps talk to her on my behalf?”

Jamie’s face displayed her uncertainty as she was caught in a bind. She felt like a peasant caught in a war between two kings.

Noticing her conflicted expression, Henry grimaced and uttered, “Never mind. You can leave.”

With the door closing softly, Henry leaned back in his chair, thoughts drifting to Crystal.
