Crystal’s One Night of Love
Chapter 145

Chapter 145 I Cannot Give You What You Want.

After hearing Crystal's question, Henry was startled for a moment, He slowly released Crystal and stood there smoking silently.

Crystal had expected this, but she still felt a bit sad.

She got up gently.

After a moment of silence, she spoke in a low voice. "Henry, all you want is a sexual relationship! On the other hand. I seek emotional fulfillment and even desire marriage. That's why I believe we're not suitable for each other. Your passion for me may burn out, leaving behind nothing but resentment. So what's the point?"

Henry tossed away his cigarette butt and put it out with a stomp,

In the darkness, he gazed at her.

Crystal's face was fair, and her eyes were slightly red, making her as lovable as a little bunny.

Henry pondered for a long time before he answered, "Crystal, I admit that before I met you, I did. treat emotions and work as equals! I expect a return after investing a certain amount of money and effort... I don't see anything wrong with that! However, my intention is not only to sleep with you. Otherwise, I wouldn't be so persistent in holding on to you, would I?"

Crystal looked at him. She knew that he hadn't gotten to the point yet.

As she expected, Henry's gaze deepened.

He continued in a soft voice, "Crystal, I don't know where our relationship will lead! But my feelings for you are genuine, and I have never entangled myself with any woman before. You are. the first." Crystal lowered her head.

Henry didn't lie to her, nor did he utter any sweet words.

He gently lifted her chin and said, "Crystal, I like you."

However, it wasn't love.

He had loved too passionately during his younger days. Until now, he hadn't rediscovered the feeling of being heartbroken for a girl.

He did like Crystal, and the recent arguments had indeed made him unhappy.

However, it was not to the extent that it affected his sleep and appetite.

It was more about the uneasiness of having the rhythm of his life disrupted.

He shouldn't have said these things to her, as any girl who heard them wouldn't want to reconcile with him. However, Henry felt some sympathy for Crystal. He didn't want to deceive her!

Henry took a step back.

His handsome face bore a composed expression as he uttered, "I'm sorry, Crystal. I can't give you what you want!"

That included marriage and children!

The wind blew fiercely through the night.

Crystal felt cold, and she gently wrapped her coat around her.

Under the moonlight, she gazed at Henry.

Her previous embarrassments and anger seemed to have suddenly disappeared,

She liked Henry, but she believed they hadn't met at the right moment. They had both been hurt. in relationships and didn't trust each other.

Crystal instinctively took a step back..

She smiled faintly. "Mr. Miller, drive safely on your way back."

Henry's gaze darkened.

He nodded politely, opened the car door, and got in.

However, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he lit a cigarette, took a drag, and looked up to see Crystal. He then stroked his chin and said, "Go upstairs now. It's cool at night." Crystal looked at him deeply, giving him one last glance.

The next instant, she turned around and walked away abruptly.

Henry slowly moved the cigarette away from his lips as his gaze fixed on her fading figure.

Over the years, Crystal was the only woman who truly captivated his heart.

If there were no conflicts, he believed they could have a long life together, and he knew that the reason they had come to this point was because of him.

He knew immediately that Crystal had feelings for him.

However, when she asked him with teary eyes if he loved her....

He gave up on this relationship!

He didn't want to entrust his future to another woman, nor did he want to taste the bitterness of betrayal again, even though he knew that Crystal wouldn't do such a thing. Henry sat in the car for a long time.

He took some time to digest and process the aftermath of this relationship.

Time flew by, and two months had passed.

During these two months, a lot of things happened. Crystal and Emelia successfully took over the music center and turned it into the largest music training center in Barnwood. They were doing great in their careers.

As for John's case, it went to trial last month.

Crystal met with Henry once.

They exchanged a few words, but all were related to work. His attitude was aloof and distant. It was as if they had never experienced those passionate nights.

It was the same for Crystal.

Eventually, the court announced that John was innocent.

Crystal hesitated for a while but finally decided to text Henry: Thank you, Mr. Miller.

It took Henry three days to reply: My pleasure.

Crystal looked at these two words and was reminded of the Henry she first met.

He was skilled at putting on a facade and had a reserved demeanor.

She smiled faintly and didn't think much of it.

In early December, Madison invited her for a meal.

When Crystal arrived at the place, she looked around and said, "Are you trying to relive your childhood? Eating a children's meal at your age?" Madison chuckled.

She lowered her voice and said, "Crystal, I've been really longing for a child recently.

Crystal knew Madison's situation.

Zachary was still out there fooling around. He was just saving Madison some face and not bringing those women home.

Crystal gently stirred her coffee.

After a while, she asked, "Are you sure?"

Madison hesitated for a moment, then immediately said, "Crystal, as you know, I haven't been working much since I got married to him. I can't live without him... As for those women around. him, I don't care anymore!"

She glanced at her belly and said, "Maybe having a child will make him settle down." Crystal gently held her hand. "Madison, have you thought about working at my place?" Madison shook her head and laughed. "I'd better not. I don't want to ruin those kids." Crystal didn't insist.

Suddenly, Madison cleared her throat and said, "Tomorrow night is the anniversary of my marriage with Zachary. Why don't you come and join the celebration?"

Crystal was somewhat hesitant. "Considering that Zachary and Henry belonged to the same circle, would I bump into Henry during the event?"

Madison reassured her, "No, it won't happen! Henry hasn't attended any social events in the past. two months. He has been living a quiet life like a monk. Besides, Zachary doesn't have such a big influence to invite him."

Hearing that, Crystal readily agreed.

Afterward, Madison continued with some gossip, "Crystal, do you know? Audrey went back to the Kingdom of Brundela. Zachary accidentally revealed it once and mentioned that Audrey got into a big fight with her fiancé's mistress, and that mistress was quite fierce. She ended up putting Audrey in the hospital."

Crystal was stunned.

Madison's expression was full of satisfaction. "What goes around comes around! I heard that the mistress is actually the Quinn family's housekeeper. I bet she's very open-minded in that aspect, which would certainly please men."

As Madison continued talking, it somehow turned into something like a late-night show.

Crystal didn't dare to listen anymore. "I have something to attend to, so I should go now."

Madison was still worried. "Don't forget about tomorrow night. I'll send you the location on WhatsApp.

Crystal waved her hand casually.

She took this matter to heart, and the following evening, she returned to her condominium and deliberately changed into a dress.

She wore a smoke-gray long dress with a thin coat over it.

Crystal tied up her chesmut-colored long hair, giving off a celestial and otherworldly vibe.

However, as soon as she entered the private room, everyone's gaze turned uncomfortable, and at heavy silence filled the air. Crystal found it strange.

When she looked closely, she saw the person sitting in the corner

It was Henry!

He was dressed in exquisite wool trousers and a dark blue shirt.

It was obvious that he had just come from a formal occasion.

Crystal felt a knot in her stomach as she looked at Madison. Didn't you say he wouldn't come?
