Crystal’s One Night of Love
Chapter 193

Chapter 193 I Am Sure I Love You

Madison straightened her back and explained slowly, "It is something I ate."

Despite hearing her explanation, Crystal remained doubtful.

Right then, footsteps sounded outside. A familiar voice soon rang out. "Madison!"

It was Zachary

Madison stiffened and turned around to look at her ex-husband. Forcing a smile, she said, "I heard you have a son now. Congratulations. When can we complete our divorce proceedings? That way, your son can be registered to your household."

Zachary said nothing and gazed at Madison silently.

Gazing upon her delicate and stunning figure, he couldn't help but be reminded of the beautiful moments they had shared.

Back when Madison was in university, they were extremely happy together.

Zachary's hands were trembling as he fished out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. He took one out and stuffed it into his mouth and lit it up. Looking up, he said, "Madison, let's get back together."

Madison raised her voice and snorted icily. "Zachary, are you joking? We're already at this stage. How can we get back together?"

Immediately after uttering those words, she was struck by a sudden surge of pain in her stomach, causing. her to instinctively clutch her abdomen.

Zachary puffed on his cigarette as he stared at her hands. He had guessed some things but pretended not to say anything. Revealing the truth wouldn't bring him any good. Being cuckolded didn't matter to him.

Zachary's voice choked. "I really want to get back together with you. You can pack up, and I'll come and pick you up tomorrow."

As a man, he felt that it was difficult for him to make this decision.

Alas, both of them were in the wrong. He could forgive Madison, so he assumed Madison could also forgive him.

They were arguing when Charles arrived.

After leaving Madison with Crystal, he shrugged off his jacket and sneered, "Zachary, don't you have a son? B'stard, why are you here? Do you want to get beaten up?" Anger flared up within Zachary when he saw Charles.

F*ck Charles. He and my wife....

Both men were irrational and were about to get into a physical fight when a voice abruptly rang out. "The Jenkins family is holding a wedding today. You should consider the occasion before breaking into a fight. fueled by jealousy."

It was none other than Henry.

With his keen senses, he noticed Madison clutching her abdomen and Zachary's impulsive action. Although he had pieced together much of the situation, he chose to respect their dignity and remained

silent.

As Henry was here, Charles released his grip on Zachary, but his grim expression remained.

Zachary stepped back as his gaze landed on Madison. His voice was soft as he announced, "Clementine's baby isn't mine."

The news struck everyone like a bolt from the blue.

In the past, everyone in their social circle would laugh and claim Zachary had it coming. However, in the present moment, there was a notable absence of laughter. Madison's complexion turned pale as she realized that Zachary no longer entertained the idea of a divorce.

Zachary approached Madison, his face flushed as he choked out, "Madison, I may be a despicable person. but I genuinely want to reconcile with you. I know you despise me, but I will never agree to a divorce, even if it means sacrificing all my wealth."

Madison gave him a tight slap.

Zachary didn't avoid her slap, and his eyes turned red. "We were happy, weren't we? Madison, I'll never, give up!"

With that, he walked away, feeling lost.

Madison burst into tears as Crystal pulled her in for a hug.

Charles gently pulled Madison to his side and addressed Crystal politely, "Crystal, why don't you go ahead and head back? I'll give Madison a ride as I need to have a conversation with her." With that, he led Madison away, offering her support as they walked.

Crystal's mind was clouded with confusion as if she had missed a crucial piece of the puzzle. Gradually, as her senses returned, she became aware that she and Henry were the only ones left on the scene. Henry stood in the corridor silently smoking, his presence casting a solemn atmosphere.

Not wanting to be alone with him, Crystal spun on her heels to leave.

Suddenly, an arm stretched out and blocked her path.

Henry asked, "Are you sure you want to keep that Young Pup by your side? If you need an investment, I can give you any amount you need!"

Crystal replied calmly, "Mr. Miller, we're not related to each other, so I don't have a right to spend your money. Please remove your hand so I can go home."

Henry didn't move.

In fact, he even gazed at her, his eyes clouded with desire.

Henry had never considered himself to be particularly lustful. Before entering a relationship with Crystal, he had gone through periods of being unattached and had managed to live contentedly. However, after engaging in a physical relationship with her and subsequently breaking up, he found it increasingly

challenging to suppress his desires.

Under the sparkling chandelier, she looked especially fair.

Glancing at her slender waist, he couldn't forget how amazing it felt to run his hands over her body.

Henry gulped and tamped down his desires. Gently, he said, "You've asked me on two occasions if I love you, Crystal. Well, now I can tell you with absolute certainty that I do. I love you."

In the past, he seldom felt the need to express such sentimental words and rarely dwelled on them.

However, he understood that her apprehension was because she believed he didn't love her. He also recognized that voicing his emotions might not sway her, but he wanted her to be aware of his true feelings.

Despite not taking Pete seriously, he was flustered by the former's appearance. He had wanted to take hist time to slowly sway her heart, but now he couldn't.

Hearing his words, Crystal couldn't stop her eyes from turning red.

She used to yearn for him to say those words, but they meant nothing now.

Shaking her head gently, Crystal blurted out, "I don't care now."

I want to leave.

Henry grabbed her hand. "Crystal, I'm sorry for making you upset."

"L-Let me go!" Crystal's voice was trembling-

With a swift motion, she freed her hand from his grasp and hastened away. She couldn't deny that there was a time when she loved him deeply, and they shared an intimate bond. However, he ultimately shattered her heart, and she could never remain unaffected when it came to him..

Crystal's eyes were still red when she entered the car.

Pete had been waiting inside the car. When he saw her expression through the rearview mirror, he burst. out, "F*ck! Did you meet that scum? Do you still like him?"

"Of course not!"

Pete, whose face typically bore a smile, suddenly turned cold. "Your hasty denial suggests a sense of guilt, doesn't it? Hey-"

Crystal cut in softly, “Pete, you keep following me and jest around. Your real target is Henry, right?"

Pete instantly grew displeased.

"D*mn it! Don't make it sound that disgusting. I don't like men!"

He continued honestly, "He offended me back in Hulcaster, and I was humiliated. I gave him a gift back then, but he wasn't interested in the gorgeous woman. I suspect there's something wrong with him!" Leaning back into the seat, Crystal listened to him silently as she recalled the incident.

Prior to the New Year, Henry embarked on a business trip to Hulcaster to assist Edward in a legal dispute. Crystal was aware that Pete's comment alluded to the incident that took place that night. Crystal also remembered that Henry sent a voice message to her that night.

So it happened that night....

Pete babbled on, but Crystal didn't bother listening to anything he said.
