Crystal’s One Night of Love
Chapter 296

Chapter 296 Diary

Jamie sent the documents to Henry late that night.

Inside the study, Crystal and Henry were sitting side by side.

He signed rather quickly while she stared at the paper for a very long time before doing the same.

Tears welled in her eyes.

Leaning against the couch, Henry stared at her for a few seconds before mocking, "Isn't this what you wanted?"

He felt pretty good. Finally, I'm upsetting her.

In contrast to him, Crystal wasn't in a great mood.

Henry didn't love her, so he didn't mind divorcing her

However, she still remembered everything they had been through.

The fact that they would be strangers in the future brought sorrow to her heart.

Crystal set her pen down and spoke as she stood. "I'll move out with the children tomorrow morning."

Henry was visibly startled. That quickly?

Silently, she left the study.

Henry's initial glee started fading as he stared at the door.

The next day, the moving company staff was already hard at work early in the morning.

Henry put on his tie before descending the stairs and happening upon that scene.

Coincidentally, Crystal was also in the living room.

Calmly, she said, "I'll ask people to move everything in the mansion out in a few days. Also, I'm keeping the piano."

Staring at her serene expression, Henry spat, "Do whatever pleases you!"

Crystal nodded and left in Joel's car.

Instead of heading to his office, Henry waited for the moving company to haul Crystal's belongings away before making his way to the second floor.

The newly renovated room was empty. Everything that belonged to Crystal had been ferried away.

Sitting on the bed, he felt exasperated.

Wordlessly, he smoked a cigarette and felt that Crystal was ruthless for leaving without hesitation.

At the door, the housekeeper knocked and informed, "The workers accidentally left a small box behind, Mr. Miller. Can you take a look and check if it belongs to Mrs. Miller? There must be something important inside, considering how high quality the box is."

Henry stretched his hand toward the housekeeper. "Show it to me!"

The housekeeper handed a small box to him.

Holding his cigarette with one hand, he used the other to touch the box.

Even at a glance, he could tell it was a specially designed box. Whatever's inside must be treasured by Crystal. Perhaps there are valuable pieces of jewelry within it!

Nonchalantly, he opened it. To his surprise, no valuable items were kept within. Instead, there was only an old diary and a small recorder.

Frowning, he thought, Why would she cherish something like this-

His blood froze when he flipped the pages and saw his handwriting. The book contained his records about his love for Crystal.

The following was a random collection of entries that Henry read: The one I love most is Crystal Winters.

She loves to play the piano, and she likes to wear a certain brand of clothes.

Every day. I bring her roses.

Our first child is Skyler, and we had her in exchange for Crystal's life. Skyler has poor health. She suffers from hemophilia and has Rh-negative blood.

Crystal's pregnant again. She's six weeks pregnant now, so I have to be more considerate of her.

Crystal cannot drive. If she hugs me, that means she wants me to kiss her. No matter how important other things are, I have to stop and kiss her. To be honest, she's just a young lady, but she has become the mother of my two children. She likes hearing me call her a young mother.

Here, he stopped for a moment to gulp before rapidly flipping through the rest of the diary. The entire book is filled with entries like this!

Paling, he turned on the recorder. His recorded voice then reverberated in the room that once belonged to Crystal. "If you're listening to this, it means I may not be by your side anymore, Crystal. You must be crying, right? Don't cry, silly! At least we're still legally wedded, not to mention you still have our two kids. The baby inside your tummy is a boy, so call him Remi! Promise me that you'll never give up on looking for me because I love you, Crystal. I can't live without you! The life I lived in the past, regardless of how awesome it was, will never be comparable to the life I had with you. I love you, Crystal. Can you be brave for me once more?"

Henry was bewildered. To think I loved Crystal so deeply before! I asked her never to give up, yet I divorced her so easily.

Upon closing the box, he called Crystal on the phone as he wanted to question her about this, but she

didn't answer.

As such, Henry called Joel. At that moment, Joel was smoking while leaning against the vehicle. When Henry asked Joel where Crystal was, Joel answered, "She's in the cemetery. I think she's digging something

out."

Cemetery...

Henry immediately grabbed his keys and rushed downstairs. Once he was inside his car and holding the

steering wheel, he saw his hands trembling. I don't know what Crystal is doing there, but I have a feeling it's, something really important! I don't know what it is I truly want after reading the diary, but at this moment, I only want to stop her!

It was March, so the roses Henry planted for Crystal hadn't bloomed yet.

The Miller family's cemetery was desolate.

Crystal stood quietly before a stone wall in a white coat, paying respect for her lost love.

Carved on the wall was Henry's and Crystal's names.

After a long while, she whispered, "I'm sorry, but I can't fulfill my promise, Henry. I've given up. I can't wait anymore. However, I still remember the love we used to have for each other. Perhaps our love in my memory is the only thing worth keeping instead of the hope that I can change the mind of a man who doesn't love me.

A faint smile appeared on her countenance. I'm back, Henry. From this day onward, I'll only stay by your side. No one will come between us anymore.

She moved the stone wall away and retrieved the diamond ring inside. Despite being stored there for years, the ring remained as brilliant as ever.

Tears welled in her eyes as she gently slipped the ring onto her ring finger. I'm back, Henry!

At the entrance to the cemetery, Henry parked his car and left the vehicle.

In the distance, he saw Crystal putting on a diamond ring.

With teary eyes, she kissed the diamond ring, which he thought looked like a ceremony or confession.

Face pale, Henry exclaimed, "Crystal!"

Under the sunlight, Crystal turned to gaze at him quietly, smiling as a breeze brushed past.

However, she no longer belonged to him.

They were already divorced, after all.
