Crystal's One Night of Love

Madison vented her frustrations, and Crystal couldn’t help but laugh. She looked at Madison quietly. feeling comforted.

Over the years, she might have lost a lot, but many people were still by her side, just as before-her mother, her children, and Madison.

Life always had its regrets, but at this moment, Crystal felt content.

She gently stroked Madison’s hair and said in a soft voice, “I’ll arrange the best seat for you.”

Back at the mansion, the children hadn’t returned yet, and only Remi was there.

Crystal specially made his favorite dish and played with him. Though he was just over a year old, he was remarkably sensible. He somehow knew there was a baby in his mother’s belly and never demanded to be held.

In the evening. Joel brought the two children back.

He grinned and said, “Henry might be coming home a bit late!”

Crystal smiled, acknowledging the information.

The sky was gradually darkening, and snowflakes started to fall gently.

With the children in tow, Crystal made a call to Henry. In a hushed voice, she asked, “Can you come home earlier tonight?”

Henry, currently in the CEO’s office of Secas Corporation, asked with a light chuckle, “Miss me?”

Crystal looked at the falling snow outside and then at the children in the living room. She spoke softly. “Today is Christopher’s birthday.”

Henry visibly paused.

Just then, Jamie entered and said, “Mr. Miller, the meeting is about to start!”

Henry glanced at his watch and said, “It’s snowing outside. Let’s postpone the meeting until tomorrow morning. Have everyone leave early.”

Jamie was quite surprised.

Henry smiled. “It’s my son’s birthday.”

After hanging up, Henry put on a light wool coat and left the company,

Jamie stood there, smiling.

Henry drove back to the mansion, arriving at seven o’clock sharp.

He opened the car door, got out, and found a thin layer of white snow on the ground. The entire city was enveloped in a blanket of white, exuding a chilly atmosphere. However, the soft yellow light from the house emanated warmth.

He retrieved a gift from the trunk and walked into the living room.

“The snow outside is getting heavier.”

While saying this, he unbuttoned his coat with one hand. He then called out, “Christopher, come here!”

Christopher was half-kneeling on a dining chair.

In front of him was a small cake made by Crystal, along with dishes meticulously prepared by the household staff. Most of them were his favorites.

He looked at the oversized toy in Henry’s hand-it was an action figure.

The boy dashed over, hugging Henry’s leg. Henry smiled and lifted him up, giving him a kiss. “Mrs. Miller called to tell me it’s your birthday today. Sorry, I came back late. Here’s your birthday present… Do you like it?”

Christopher took the gift, holding it tightly.

Henry looked around the dining room.

His wife was sitting at the table in a long dress, with Skyler and Remi beside her… Skyler clapped her hands and sang a birthday song for Christopher, saying that she would hug him to sleep tonight as his birthday gift.

Henry chuckled. “Skyler, today isn’t your birthday.”

Skyler lifted her little head proudly. “I don’t easily share my bed with others!”

It took even Berthold a long time to persuade her to let him sleep in her princess bed.

Christopher’s face turned slightly red….

Henry went over, kissing Crystal. “Happy birthday, Crystal.”

Crystal held Christopher with one arm, letting him blow out the candles.

At this moment, Christopher felt warm inside.
