Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 376 Waking From Heartache 2 

Crystal could barely stand it.

She cleared her throat and whispered, “I thought you were going to come in the afternoon.”

Henry walked over to the bed, and Julia moved aside to let him take her place.

He gently touched Crystal’s face and said without reservation, “I couldn’t wait, so I had the doctor give m an injection to come here. Crystal…”

As he held her face with one hand, she could feel the warmth emanating from his palm.

Crystal met his eyes.

They had been through the same dream, and both were now looking at each other in a new light. There were many things they wanted to share, but the room was too crowded for a private conversation. Furthermore, Skyler was watching them with wide eyes on the bed.

Still, Henry did not care about that.

So what if his parents and children were watching them?

He wanted to kiss her.

Thus, he leaned over and did exactly that. Crystal was startled and instinctively resisted.

However, Henry grabbed her hand and deepened the kiss.

Finally, David reacted.

Are young people so straightforward nowadays?

With a tomato-red face, he got his wife and the children away, including Skyler. In no time, the ward was much emptier.

After a long kiss, Henry buried his face in the crook of her neck.

He muttered, “Has the doctor come to see you? How’s the baby?”

“The baby’s fine.”

When Crystal touched his arm, she noticed that he had lost some muscles. Then, her hand wandered toward his neck and chest. Henry grabbed her hand and hoarsely said, “Even if you want it, I don’t have the energy.”

Crystal’s thin finger tapped his lips.

This man clearly loved her, but he was always teasing her.

Their eyes met.

Finally, Henry said, “Crystal, I missed you.”

For the past seven days, waiting for her to wake from her coma had been tormenting for him.

Crystal was not unaware of that.

He had lost much weight, and that caused her heart to ache. Yet, she could not bring herself to say those cheesy words. All she remembered was how the man had pulled her up from the abyss, paying a costly price for his action in the process.

Crystal slowly pulled him onto the bed.

She choked out, “Henry, take care of yourself. Once we’ve recovered, let’s go to the condominium.”

He agreed to that.

Then, with their heads pressed together, they rested.

During lunchtime, Henry could not ignore the pain in his legs anymore, and the doctor gave emergency treatment. After that, he was instructed to use a wheelchair for at least half a month.

Crystal was slowly recovering, and the baby in her was exceptionally strong.

One afternoon, Crystal stood before Henry, letting him touch her enlarged belly. She suddenly asked, “Are we really calling her Aurora?”
