Crystal’s One Night of Love
Chapter 102

Chapter 102 I Will Drive Them There

Crystal blushed hotly. "I don't love you!" She moved to put away the leftovers on the dining table.

Unexpectedly, Henry took off his tie and rolled up his sleeves.

"There's

no need to put them away. I'll finish everything."

He was unbelievably agreeable that night. Crystal voluntarily fried a few chicken wings and some snacks for him. She even took out a bottle of red wine and opened it.

It was rare for Henry to eat such things. Surprisingly, he found them passable.

He took a sip of red wine. Brushing the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth gently to stimulate his taste buds, he savored the mellow tang of it.

When it came to physical intimacy, Crystal was fairly proactive.

She hugged him from behind, leaned forward, and kissed him. The kiss lasted for a long time, Finally, Henry snapped and pulled her onto his lap, spilling half a glass of red wine onto the floor. Yet, neither of them were bothered about it.

Crystal had never known she had such a side to her that she would boldly make out with a man in the dining room. When Henry sought her consent with eyes blazing with desire, she grew somewhat hesitant. Henry coaxed tenderly, "No one else is here. It's normal to do it once in the living room."

Crystal's face burned, and her heart pounded wildly.

She felt that she had fallen.

"Can I, Crystal?" Henry continued to call out to her softly.

Crystal rested against his shoulder, then wrapped her long and slender arms around his waist.

After the fact, she felt that she had indulged herself too much. That was doubly true when she found herself sore upon waking in the morning.

On the head of the bed lay a white rose.

She knew that Henry must have picked it during his morning run, for there was still dew on it.

Delight flooded her.

She had only dated twice. Her time with Robert was bland, with the most they shared being a light kiss. But after getting together with Henry, she tasted passionate love and desire.

She brushed her fingers across the snow-white pillow gently. Which woman wouldn't be lost in a lover like him? Despite knowing that it was not good, she still did not want to change. She stayed in bed for a while longer before she got up to wash up and tidy the house.

The dining room was sparkling clean, but clothes lay scattered on the couch in the living room. She reckoned that the man had left them on purpose.

She picked every piece of clothing up.

At noon, she texted Henry to remind him about Joshua's concert that night.

About half an hour later, Henry gave her a call.

He apologized, saying that he had a case to discuss with a client, so he might not be able to accompany her.

Disappointment inundated Crystal.

"Aren't you close with Madison? Ask her to go with you," Henry cajoled in a low voice.

Madison?

Crystal sighed softly, for Madison had gone to Hawen in the past two days and was not in the

country.

After hanging up the phone, she deliberated for a long time. In the end, she decided to invite Sophia instead. Not only was the latter talented at playing the piano, but she was also her only student. Inviting Sop

use.

She gave Sophia a call.

While Sophia was young, she idolized Joshua greatly. The news had her jumping for joy.

"Thank you, Miss Winters!"

Crystal gently urged her to wear a dress for the occasion.

"I know! That's the proper etiquette!" Sophia quipped.

Crystal giggled, her mood improving significantly.

She chose a floral maxi dress and matched it with a thin brown belt at the waist that beautifully and romantically complemented her hair color.

Subsequently, she took a taxi to pick Sophia up.

It so happened that Jake was at home. When he saw Crystal, he greeted her enthusiastically, "You're here, Crystal. Sophia has been waiting for you for ages, and she's as happy as a clam right

now."

Crystal flashed him a smile. "I'll send her back after the concert."

Jake brewed her a cup of coffee and chuckled. "With you there, I've got nothing to worry about. I'll have my driver send you both over later."

Crystal did not decline his offer.

Soon, Sophia skipped down the stairs. "Miss Winters!"

Crystal lifted her head, only to be greeted by the sight of Seth following behind Sophia.

Seth slowly descended the stairs. Throughout it all, his eyes were fixed on Crystal, a trace of adoration in them. Nonetheless, he sounded as casual as ever. "I'll drive them there, Dad." Jake grinned widely. "Sure! You drive them, then."
