Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 379 I Owe Them Too Much 2 

Alfred’s suggestion was too tempting, so Melora was tempted to say yes.

However, she hesitated. It would be one thing if she were alone, but now she had Berthold.

If they couldn’t be together for New Year’s, it would be disappointing and disheartening.

Alfred knew what she was thinking.

He ruffled her hair and told her, “Let’s talk about this later. After you finish shooting, head home straight away.”

He should be leaving after saying that, but he lingered for a while.

It was indeed challenging for him to find the opportunity to meet her.

Finally, shooting resumed.

Alfred walked out of the studio, and it was snowing heavily.

Leslie was about to take off his own coat to give it to Alfred, but the latter stopped him. “The cold doesn’t bother me. I’m not an elderly man.”

Leslie didn’t think much and replied cheerfully, “You should be taking good care of yourself at this age.”

Alfred did not respond.

Leslie knew he had said the wrong thing.

He opened the car door for Alfred, who climbed in and brushed the snow off his shoulders. In a self- deprecating tone, Alfred remarked, “Yes, I’m no longer young, but I still can’t provide my wife and child with a complete family.”

Leslie sighed at that.

After Alfred’s departure, Melora’s condition was far from ideal.

She struggled to regain her composure and ultimately completed the ad shoot. However, she declined the film crew’s invitation to dine together.

Her assistant was smart enough to offer to pay for the film crew’s dinner.

Melora missed Berthold a lot.

She rushed back to Henry’s mansion to retrieve Berthold, planning to return to her own condominium. However, upon her arrival, she realized that it was getting late and snowing heavily.

Henry was sitting on the couch, working on his laptop.

Without looking up, he said, “Why don’t you stay here tonight? Berthold has been eagerly anticipating playing in the snow, and he’s been waiting all day.”

Melora glanced at her son.

Berthold approached and grasped her hand, pleading, “I want to play with Skyler and Christopher.”

Melora had always felt a sense of indebtedness toward him, so she couldn’t bring herself to refuse his request.
