Crystal’s One Night of Love
Chapter 108

Chapter 108 You Truly Amaze Me

Crystal closed the car door.

Her eyes were tinged with anger as she looked at Clementine.

Clementine's eyes were fixed on the vibrant red sports car, and her voice was laced with a hint of jealousy and mockery as she said, "Crystal, do you consider yourself superior to me? We both depend on men

Crystal sneered. "So, you think it's perfectly acceptable to destroy someone else's happiness and life? Do you not feel guilty?"

Clementine laughed at that. "Let's go to the cafe and have a chat, Crystal. I've been wanting to talk to you since the reunion." Crystal had nothing to talk about with someone like her, but she still entered Cat Barista Cafe

with Clementine for Madison's sake.

Crystal didn't speak at first. She was afraid that if she did, she wouldn't be able to resist pouring her coffee over Clementine's head.

Clementine, on the other hand, seemed to have a lot to say. After taking a sip of

her coffee, she smiled confidently and said, "Don't think that Zachary and I just recently got involved. In fact, wel were already together back in university!"

Crystal was surprised and furious.

Clementine stirred her coffee lightly and raised an eyebrow. "You don't believe me? Crystal, do you remember that Christmas party when Zachary came over to accompany Madison? He is handsome, wealthy, satisfied and even gave me a phone as a gift later! After that, Zachary and I started seeing each other regularly. Whenever Madison was on her period, I would sleep with Zachary. He was

very generous toward me and practically paid for all of my university tuition fees."

Crystal's blood ran cold.

She could hardly believe what she was hearing.

After a moment, she asked through gritted teeth, "At that time, weren't you secretly in love with. Robert? How did you end up with Zachary?"

Clementine laughed so hard that her entire body shook.

"Crystal, you are so naïve! Yeah, I liked Robert, but who cares? Does that affect the matter of me sleeping with Zachary in any way? Besides, didn't I also end up with Robert? Crystal, do you want to hear abou Clementine's eyes were seductive and provocative.

"I don't want to know!" Crystal said icily. How shameless!

Clementine looked bewildered. She didn't expect Crystal to be uninterested in the story.

In the moment of her confusion, Crystal had already stood up to leave.

Clementine reached out to grab Crystal in a state of panic, surprising the latter with her unexpectedly strong grip.

Crystal furrowed her eyebrows.

Finally, Clementine's mask of pretense shattered. She gnashed her teeth and said harshly, "Come on, you don't want to know? Crystal, you're the heartless one here. Remember how desperately you were in l Clementine went on and on, but Crystal remained unfazed.

She smiled faintly and said, "Clementine, you don't feel sorry for him at all. You're simply being pathetic."

Clementine slumped back into her seat.

Crystal placed a one-hundred note on the table and quietly left.

She sat in the car and hesitated for a long time, not knowing

Now to tell Madison.

It wouldn't be a happy conversation if she told her, but hiding it from her would be even worse.

Ultimately, Crystal made the decision to patiently wait for Madison's return so that they could

she could subtly convey her thoughts have the opportunity for a face-to-face conversation wher and concerns to her.

However, to her surprise, Madison called later that evening.

"Crystal, can you come over?"

Crystal sat up in bed and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Madison struggled to speak through her tears. Her words were fragmented and filled with pain.

Crystal's heart raced with concern as she leaped off the bed. "Don't do anything rash. I'll be there right away!"

(

Madison continued crying on the other end of the line.

When Crystal arrived at the couple's mansion, chaos still engulfed the scene.

Clementine, wearing sexy lace lingerie, appeared disheveled. Her hair was a tangled mess, resembling a bird's nest, and her face still bore the marks of Madison's scratches. With blood staining her skin, she l Madison didn't fare any better, with buttons missing from her dress and obvious handprints visible on her face.

Crystal's heart sank.

She guessed it was Zachary who hit her.

Upon seeing Crystal, Madison rushed into her arms and cried her eyes out.

"Crystal... I want a divorce!"

Naturally, Crystal despised Zachary for his betrayal and for resorting to violence against Madison. However, at that moment, she knew she couldn't add fuel to the fire.

After helping Madison settle down, Crystal disregarded the other two people's presence and fetched an ice pack to soothe Madison's bruised face.

A pang of guilt washed over Crystal.

If she had informed Madison earlier, Madison wouldn't have been abused.

Madison sobbed, "He hit me because of that b*tch!" She clung to Crystal, trembling with anger. "They've been together for years, and they've been sleeping with each other in my bed all the time!" Crystal was greatly saddened.

She glanced at Zachary, trying to gauge his attitude.

Zachary was still seething with anger. He did love Madison, but her hot temper was unbearable. She was unlike Clementine, who always acted subserviently and comforted his body and mind.

Men often believe their contributions should be appreciated in some way by the women they are involved with.

Zachary showed no signs of remorse. He stubbornly declared, "If you still want to be with me, then stay. If not, just leave!"

Madison began crying again.

Crystal could sense that she didn't want a divorce because she truly loved Zachary.

Calmly, Crystal said to Zachary, "How many years have you been with Madison? Don't you think it's inappropriate for you to do this to her? Divorce or not, shouldn't you at least be a gentleman?" Knowing the i four years of life!"

As expected, Zachary's attitude softened.

Straightening his shirt collar, he said rather uncomfortably, "I was just fooling around. It's not anything serious."

He approached Madison.

However, she was still in distress and refused to talk to him.

Zachary set aside his pride and tried to coax her. "Come on, that's enough. We still need to visit my mom tomorrow, so stop crying. If your face swells up, my mom will ask questions that I won't be able to answer."

Madison raised her hand to hit him, but at that moment, they reconciled and ended up entwined in each other's arms.

Crystal felt a sense of helplessness, but she respected Madison's choice. The key now was how Zachary would behave in the future.

The couple quickly made up.

Clementine's face turned pale.

Her plan to corner Madison and force her into a difficult situation had backfired. That despicable Zachary actually confessed that he has been toying with me all along!

Clementine covered her face, flashing a sinister smile at Crystal.

"Crystal, you truly amaze me! I've underestimated you."

Before Crystal could respond, Zachary impatiently drove Clementine away. "Get lost, get lost! We're cutting all ties from now on."

The outcome left Crystal sighing over Clementine's plight.

In the following days, she was occupied with matters of the music center and couldn't meet Madison in person.

Howeyer, from their phone conversations, Crystal could tell that Madison and Zachary were living like newlyweds. She couldn't pass judgment on their marriage, believing that perhaps many women would cho Having been occupied for a few days, Crystal had nearly forgotten about Henry, and they hadn't been contacting each other.

One evening, as she returned to the condominium, she noticed the living room lights were on and quickened her pace. Sure enough, Henry had returned.

He was sitting on the couch, speaking on the phone with a suitcase beside him. Obviously, he had just got home. When he saw Crystal, he waved at her.

Crystal took off her shoes and settled next to him. Henry held his phone, engrossed in a business
