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.

Jamie nodded and headed out to convey the message.

“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.
