Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 352 The Tables Were Turned 

“Bring her in,” Crystal uttered calmly.

The housekeeper went out to lead Saige in.

The young woman, despite being a top-tier actress, still felt somewhat overwhelmed standing in front of the multi-million-dollar mansion. It was only when a housekeeper approached and called out to her that she came to her senses.

As she entered the grand hall, she could not help but admire the luxurious and tasteful decorations.

The mistress of the house was gracefully playing the plano.

Saige, a student at an art school, was quite talented herself, but she was momentarily taken aback as she watched Crystal skillfully playing the piano. She had assumed that women from the upper echelons were only skilled at playing poker and socializing with their affluent peers.

The woman before her had long tea-colored hair cascading down her slender back.

Her fair complexion bore a subtle rosy hue, her nose was elegantly sculpted, and her long, thick eyelashes added to her captivating beauty.

Saige gently ran her fingers through her own tea-colored hair, which, unlike Crystal’s natural hue, was dyed to match. She had to retouch her color every two months to emulate the older woman.

Just as she was about to speak, a housekeeper arrived with a cup of tea.

Saige took her seat and gazed at the exquisite bone china with a tinge of envy.

She could not help but admire this kind of lifestyle.

“Miss Winters!” she greeted Crystal.

As the piano notes gently petered off, Crystal’s fingers lingered on the black and white keys. She smiled. softly and remarked, “Miss Carr, you don’t even want to address me as Mrs. Miller. It seems you’re quite confident that you can replace me, huh?”

Saige felt somewhat awkward.

Crystal stood up and sat opposite her, speaking gently to the housekeeper. “Make me a cup of coffee. It’s been a while since I had one.”

The housekeeper immediately went to attend to it.

When the housekeeper returned with a cup of coffee, Saige expressed her dismay. “Mrs. Miller, are you trying to intimidate me?”

Crystal took a whiff of the coffee before flashing a faint grin. “I guess so. So, how can I help you, Miss Carr?”

Being a young woman who had not yet experienced much, Saige was straightforward in her response. “I’m sure you must have heard the rumors from last night, right, Mrs. Miller? I’m here because I want to hear your thoughts.”

Crystal chuckled.

Sipping her coffee lightly, she then asked, “Miss Carr, are you saying that my husband had an affair with you?”

A dark, unfathomable look flashed past Saige’s gaze, but in the end, she decided to lie through her teeth.

“Yes!”

Still wearing the same faint smile, Crystal responded, “If that’s the case, you should go talk to him about it Why come to me? Miss Carr, if you want to replace me as Mrs. Miller, you should focus your efforts on Henry. But if you want me to concede defeat, I’ll not tolerate this kind of nonsense.”

Saige’s face flushed red in anger before paling.

She had not anticipated that Crystal, despite her seemingly gentle demeanor, could be so feisty. It’s as if she’s not the least bit worried at all.

Saige found herself at a loss for how to react.

Crystal raised her eyes and calmly observed the young woman before her.

No woman would be pleased to see someone who had undergone surgery to resemble her first seduce her husband, then proudly display the same face in numerous media and entertainment appearances. She has enjoyed her time of fame. Let’s end this nonsense.
