Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 322 Calling Her Name In His Dreams 

On New Year’s Day, she received the rabbit.

Even though Crystal didn’t say it outright, Melora had a strong hunch that the rabbit was a gift from Alfred.

After all, he had recently visited Hulcaster.

Late at night, Melora lay on her bed, holding the rabbit close.

She thought of Alfred and realized that she should thank him for the gift. Besides, it was the New Year, and she wanted to wish him well.

Hence, Melora decided to send him a WhatsApp message.

Melora texted: Happy New Year, Mr. Alfred!

She waited anxiously for a response, and after what seemed like an eternity, he finally replied. Alfred texted: Happy New Year.

Those three words, however, stirred deep emotions in her. Melora couldn’t help but cry quietly as she was unable to express her complicated feelings.

If it were anyone else in the world, she would boldly confess her emotions without a second thought. “I like you!”

However, she had fallen for Alfred.

He was Crystal’s uncle.

Melora despised herself, yet she couldn’t help but fall hopelessly in love with him. Normally, she didn’t follow the news, but she began to watch the television and read the newspapers. Sometimes, when her father and brother talked about Alfred, she would secretly listen in.

Nevertheless, she knew he didn’t belong to her.

It was nighttime in Coldbridge.

Dressed in a perfectly tailored suit, Alfred sat in his office, gazing at his phone while lost in thought.

Leslie entered the room.
