Crystal's One Night of Love

Early in the morning. Henry was immersed in paperwork at his office.

Jamie pushed the door open and came in. In a hushed voice, she said, “Mr. Miller, Miss Anderson’s agent has been trying to reach you several times. He would like to have a word with you.

Henry took a sip of his coffee. “Which Miss Anderson are we talking about here?”

Jamie hesitated for a beat, then reminded him, “That actress, Victoria Anderson!”

It had almost shipped Henry’s mind that Victoria had sent out a tweet that made him blacklist her in the industry. Bet her career’s in a real tailspin now.

Henry’s tone turned frosty. “I’m not interested. Kindly spare me such news in the future.”

Jamie nodded and headed out to convey the message.

The agent was thoroughly disappointed. He had exhausted every trick in the book to arrange a meeting with Henry, but Henry was having none of it. It was clear that the latter was extremely angry about the matter.

Victoria’s career took a nosedive after what Henry did.

The top-floor conference room of Seeas Corporation was buzzing with a new product brainstorming session.

Then, out of the blue, some misguided soul piped up with a well-intentioned suggestion, “Miss Winters. I have an idea! Let’s have Victoria Anderson be the face of our new shower gel.”

The room fell eerily silent at those words.

Edith, seated next to Crystal, held her breath, afraid to even blink.

Unexpectedly, Crystal’s response wasn’t fiery. Instead, it was calmly measured. “How much is her usual. fee?”

“Twenty million!”

Crystal rose from her seat, a plan forming in her mind. Tell her to bring her price quote to Seeas Corporation.”

That afternoon, Victoria came into the company.

Crystal met her in the gym room.

However, the sight of Crystal working out made her falter.
