Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 372 Going Back Soon 2 

The lights in the study weren’t switched on, with the computer screen being the sole source of illumination. The faint glow from the computer screen cast a dim light on Henry’s face.

He pulled out a cigarette and lit it up, staring at the screen quietly.

He had been plagued by anxiety recently, but after figuring out a solution, he was in a different mood.

He could not bear to part with the twenty-year-old Crystal. It wasn’t because he had a preference for younger women, but rather because he was deeply in love with her. Even if it was only a dream, the idea c leaving her behind in that dream saddened him.

After smoking two cigarettes, Henry was about to return to the bedroom when Crystal showed up.

She was wearing his shirt. She rubbed her eyes as she asked groggily, “Where’s Madison?”

“Charles picked her up just now,” Henry replied, waving for her to join him in the study.

Crystal felt shy, but she had developed feelings for him, and he always managed to stop himself before losing control. She trusted him and willingly sat on his lap.

Lying in his arms, she asked softly. “Why would Charles pick her up?”

Henry brushed a hand through her brown hair that had laid on his pillow many times.

He smiled and said, “That’s because Charles is her future husband.”

Future husband?

Playing with the buttons of his pajamas, Crystal asked, “How do you know what will happen in the future?” Henry caught her hand.

Looking up, Crystal realized he was staring at her, his gaze dark with desire.

Her cheeks turned pink.

She tried to retract her hand, but he wouldn’t let go of her.

Crystal rested her head on his shoulder and enveloped her arms around his neck. “Henry, why do I get the feeling that you will leave as suddenly as you appeared?”

Upon hearing this, Henry felt profoundly saddened.

It led him to contemplate the possibility of bringing back the twenty-year-old Crystal so that he could have both Crystals together-one mature and the other young and innocent.

Henry knew that he should cease dwelling on such thoughts. He lowered his head and gently planted a kiss on her forehead. “We’ll always be together. Trust me, Crystal.”

Crystal looked up, and a stray beam of sunlight shone through the window, illuminating her youthful face.

Her complexion was fair, and her eyebrows were beautifully shaped. Her brown hair cascaded down her shoulders, and she was in such good shape.

At that moment, she was looking at him innocently.

Her voice trembled as she replied, “I trust you.”

For the twenty-year-old Crystal, this relationship had appeared unexpectedly, much like an afternoon storm.

She had attempted to resist his charms, but the moment she stepped into his condominium unit, it felt strangely familiar, and she surrendered to her feelings. She couldn’t shake the belief that destiny had guided her to Henry’s side. Otherwise, he would’ve bumped into someone else on campus the other day.

Crystal had always been steadfast in following her heart.

She longed to be with Henry and disregarded the disparity in their social statuses or whether his would approve of their relationship.

Just like that, she agreed to date him without thinking much.

Her expression conveyed a sense of vulnerability and helplessness.

Henry had the urge to swallow her whole and bring her back to reality. parents

He remained composed and simply embraced her, sharing his intentions. He spoke of plans like opening a music center for her, strategically located in the heart of Barnwood, after her graduation. He also expressed his desire to marry her when she turned twenty-four and start a family together.

Henry spoke at length, and as he glanced down, he noticed a glistening tear at the corner of her eye. She had drifted off to sleep.

How silly! Why did she cry?

Henry kissed her lips gently before carrying her back to the bedroom.

It was only a week until the anniversary celebration.

Henry took great care to ensure Crystal’s safety and well-being. He went so far as to visit John and request that the latter allow Crystal to stay with him temporarily so he could personally drive her to and fro campus.

John disagreed, but Henry persisted and spent a night at the Winters residence, engaging in a game of chess with him.

When dawn broke, John finally relented.

Following that, Anna assisted Crystal in packing her belongings and handed them over to Henry.
