Chapter 309 Do Not Cry

Crystal's face turned red. "Watch your words. I'm not your wife!"

The man reeked of alcohol.

He leaned back in his seat, then reached out to gently grasp her hand as he searched for the diamond ring on her finger. "You're still wearing the ring. If you're not my wife, then whose wife are you?" Crystal did not know how to respond to that.

Henry looked at her with a gentle gaze. She looks delicate when she's obedient.

In a hoarse voice, he added, "I'm half your Henry now, aren't I?"

Crystal blushed. Has he no shame?

The man inched closer, his entire weight resting on her shoulder. "Crystal, I don't believe you're not moved."

In fact, she was, but somehow she felt something was amiss.

She was not used to the fact that he had suddenly remembered a part of their past.

Henry held her hair, then moved down to her neck as he planted a warm and fiery kiss. His lips carried the rich scent of red wine, mixed with a distinctive masculine aroma.

The sounds of passionate breathing and their faint kisses filled the air. The driver in front dared not utter a word.

Henry kissed her for a while, then gently pulled away, resting his forehead against hers. He gazed at her tenderly, savoring her warmth and obedient demeanor.

Crystal was trembling uncontrollably.

She nestled in his arms. After a while, his chest felt warm and damp.

She was crying. Henry, is it really you? Do you know I miss you very much?

"Don't cry, Crystal. Don't cry." Henry murmured. "I'll gradually recall everything. I promise!"

She suddenly reached out and hit him a few times.

Even though she felt uneasy in her heart, she could not resist him.

When they arrived at the hotel, he walked her to her room.

Having not been a couple for a long time, neither of them could summon the courage to take that next step.

As Crystal was swiping her key card at the door, Henry suddenly embraced her from behind.

He stroked her slender waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. "You still work out, huh? Your waist is as slim as a young girl's."

Crystal knew what he desired, but everything was happening too quickly.

She feared that after a night of passion, she would wake up next to a man she no longer recognized.

Crystal grabbed his hand and said, "Didn't you say you want to take things slow?"

Henry responded with a hum.

After running his hands all over her body for a while, he touched the ring on her finger and said, "Let's have a grand wedding this time." Crystal remained silent.

They had been together and separated several times. She was not too concerned about the grandeur of the wedding. After all, they already had two children together. The more important question was whether Henry was back or not.

Crystal turned in his arms. "When we get back, I'll go with you to the doctor."

Henry responded with a faint smile.

Seconds later, he stroked her waist again. "All right."

They were supposed to return to their respective rooms, but she could not help wrapping her arms around his waist and leaning in his arms.

She had been waiting to do this for a long time.

Henry lowered his head to glance at the woman in his arms.

His eyes were filled with mixed emotions.

At that moment, Crystal was gentle and completely devoted to him. That was something he had missed.

He clearly had her entirely to himself now, and if he wished, he could enjoy her body

tonight. However, he wanted more than that.

What he truly desired was not just her body. He wanted her as a person.

In the end, he entered her suite, and they engaged in passionate kisses within the dimly lit room, where the air was charged with the intoxicating hormones of desire.

His desire intensified, ultimately leading them into an intimate embrace on the bed.

However, when the pivotal moment arrived, the effects of alcohol took a toll on the man, rendering him unable to perform.

The atmosphere grew somewhat awkward.

Crystal turned to her side, her cheeks tinted with a rosy hue.

Henry was left slightly bewildered. He embraced her from behind and murmured. "I'm a little tipsy tonight. I'll make you feel good the next time, all right?"

Crystal pulled up the sheet to cover herself.

Henry lay flat, gazing up at the white ceiling above.

Even though his performance issues were a result of excessive drinking, it still dealt a blow to his pride as a man.

Crystal's thirty years old, the prime age when a woman desires intimacy the most. If she ends up disappointed in me and refuses to reconcile, won't all my efforts these past few days go to waste? Well, let's wait until tomorrow morning. I'll definitely ensure she experiences the joy of being a woman!

The next day, Henry woke up, still feeling the effects of the previous night's drinking.

He reached out to the side, his voice husky as he said, "Crystal, shall we-"

He could not sense her presence on the spacious bed. Where is she? Did she run away?

She had left him alone in the hotel bed.

Henry sat up, ran his hand through his hair, and could not help but wonder if she had left. early because she was dissatisfied with what happened last night.

He quickly grabbed his phone and dialed her number, but no one answered as she had turned off her phone.

Henry lay back on the bed and called Jamie, asking her to arrange a private jet.

Jamie was somewhat puzzled. Mr. Miller doesn't sound like he's in a good mood. Did he face setbacks

in pursuing Crystal? But how could that be? She seemed happy when I saw her. It was as if she was preparing for a celebration.

Later that afternoon, Henry returned to Barnwood.

Crystal continued to avoid him for the next two days.

On the third day, Henry decided to leave work early so he could look for her at Seeas. Corporation.

Chapter 310 I Am In Love With Crystal

It was six in the evening. The employees of Seeas Corporation were getting off work.

Henry stood in the middle of the lobby with his hands behind his back. The female employees passing him by blushed and greeted customarily, "Mr. Miller!" Henry smiled.

At that moment, Crystal walked out of the elevator with Edith.

Upon seeing Henry, Crystal was slightly taken aback. She didn't want others to laugh at her, so she approached him and asked in a low voice, "What are you doing here?" Henry stared at her attentively.

A moment later, he said, "It's Skyler's birthday, remember?"

As he spoke, he grabbed the coat in Edith's arm and led Crystal to his Rolls-Royce Cullinan. in the parking lot domineeringly.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Crystal mulled something over and said, "We should invite Mom, Dad, and Melora for a meal."

Henry fastened his seatbelt. "Another day, perhaps. I've already promised Skyler to bake a cake with her."

There was nothing else Crystal could say as she fixed her hair. Her dress complimented her fair skin, making her so gorgeous he couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. Soon after Henry drove out of the parking lot, he was stuck in rush-hour traffic.

Looking at the road ahead, he casually asked, "Why did you leave the other day?"

"I had a matter to attend to." Crystal concealed the truth.

Henry chuckled.

After a while, he shamelessly said, "I was going to make things up to you in the morning, but you left before I could. I just stayed on the bed for a few hours. It was quite awful." Crystal was too embarrassed to respond.

Her delicate red cheeks made her look all the more alluring.

Whenever Henry stopped at a red light, he would turn to stare at her. I bet many men would

want to marry a woman like her...

Anna arrived at the mansion early and was in the kitchen kneading dough with Skyler. Due to her bold actions, Skyler dirtied her adorable face in the process. Pleasantly surprised, Crystal went over and hugged Anna. "Mom!"

Anna glanced at Henry and smiled. "Henry sent someone to bring me here. It's Skyler's birthday today. We should celebrate together as a family."

Although Crystal understood the underlying meaning of Anna's words, she merely nodded. and went upstairs to change her clothes.

Then, she went back down to prepare a cake for Skyler.

As she was quite familiar with the process, she swiftly prepared the cake and placed it inside. the oven. When it was done, Skyler demanded to decorate it with cream.

Upon receiving permission to do so, she drew two adults and three children.

Crystal deliberately asked, "Why is there an extra child there?"

Feeling bashful, Skyler bolted into the living room and pounced into Henry's embrace.

At that moment, he was watching Remi. He hugged Skyler and asked, "What's the matter?"

Skyler refused to answer.

Children move on easily. Soon after, Skyler was holding the cake and lecturing Remi, telling him to treat Christopher nicely.

Henry was infuriated and amused. At the same time, he felt the pride of fatherhood. Sky is truly the most adorable child in the world.

He looked into the kitchen and saw that Crystal was alone.

He got up, entered the kitchen, and shut the door. "Where's Mom?"

Crystal was preparing the steak. "I made an extra cake, so she delivered it to the neighbor's kid."

What a docile woman. I used to dislike women like her. But after I've witnessed her temper, I still like it when she's obedient. Henry was still unsatisfied due to what happened days ago, so he wrapped. his arms around her thin waist. "Why do you always care about what others eat? Why don't you care about what I want to eat?"

Crystal paused momentarily before gently pushing him away. "What are you talking about?"

Henry bit the tender flesh of her neck and ground it with his teeth. "Don't be such a prude, Miss Winters."

Ever since they made things clear, Crystal had been having a harder time resisting his advances.

However, she still felt it was inappropriate. That was why she had escaped after they almost had sex a few nights ago.

Just as she was going to say something, someone opened the door to the kitchen.

Anna was standing at the door, delighted. It wasn't until a moment later that she found her voice again. "Anna, your steak's burning!"

Crystal was blushing so hard that her face turned beet red.

Knowing she was shy, Henry took the pan and dealt with the burned steak.

Then, he took out two pieces of beef from the kitchen and handed them to Crystal. "I want to watch you do it so I can prepare the same for you and the children in the future!"

Instead of replying, Crystal silently resumed her cooking.

Anna left again.

Henry hugged Crystal from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder. He didn't cross the line and upset her. All he did was hug her tenderly and appreciate her body.

After a while, he murmured, "I'll be good to you, Crystal."

Although he hadn't regained his memories, he liked Crystal and the children.

He wanted to build a healthy and loving relationship with her.

Still in his embrace, she turned to look at him. "Have your memories truly returned to you, Henry?"

Instead of answering her, he kissed her.

Their parents and children were in the building at the moment. Even though the kiss wasn't passionate, it was more heartfelt.

It had been a long time since Crystal had felt something like that.

Her lips were trembling slightly as she shyly responded to his affection.

Henry was still the same as before. He did not allow her to close her eyes and forced her to

watch how he kissed her. They kissed for a long while and were completely immersed in the

moment.

Pressing his forehead against hers, he said softly, "My junk is perfectly fine, Crystal."

He was afraid she was overthinking things.

Crystal's cheeks flushed red as she pushed him. away.

Henry looked down before leaning against the kitchen window for a smoke. "I'll check on the kids.”

After some time, Crystal served the dishes while Henry fed Remi milk.

"The doctor said he needs to lose weight." Henry cradled his son with a warm look. "I'll take him to a checkup in a few days."

Crystal nodded.

After the baby boy finished drinking milk, Henry settled him in his crib and changed his diaper.

Skyler grabbed the heavy diaper and frowned. "You peed so much, Remi!"

Crystal smiled. She lifted her eyes and met Henry's stare. He possessed a look unique to at

mature man.

After the meal, Crystal settled the children down and sent Henry out deep at night.

The couple strolled on the path in the mansion courtyard. It was quite romantic.

Holding Crystal's hand, Henry said, "Skyler's already capable of showering on her own, so why start helping her do it again? Children need to learn to be independent, Crystal."

His tone didn't carry even a hint of admonishment. Instead, it was gentle, like how all good husbands treated their wives.

Crystal was open to discussing the matter with him. Leaning against a cherry blossom tree, she muttered, "She's been a bit clingy lately."

It was dark, so neither of them could see each other clearly.

However, as he stared at her, he could see the light in her

eyes.

He stepped forward and stroked her cheek. "It's because of me, isn't it? Because of my absence...

He couldn't imagine her living a delightful life while managing a company and caring for two children simultaneously.

Her lips trembled, but she ultimately said nothing as she looked away. "You should head home now. Be careful on the road."

Henry hugged her gently and silently.

At that moment, he desperately hoped he could grant Crystal happiness.

After a while, he whispered, "Head back inside."

Crystal nodded. However, neither of them moved. In the end, Henry couldn't resist the temptation and kissed her under the tree. Both of them were feeling a little horny at that moment, so he reached his fingers into her skirt

and pleasured her a little.

After some time, Henry finally left.

Upon returning to the Miller residence, he sat in the living room in a daze.

His mind was flooded with thoughts and images of Crystal.

Following that day, he visited Crystal's place almost every night, mostly to keep the children company.

Occasionally, he'd share a kiss with her.

However, he never spent the night there, and Crystal never brought it up. He wasn't in a hurry. After all, he quite enjoyed their comfortable companionship.

As much as he enjoyed that sort of relationship, however, he never stopped feeling bad about. his inability to recover his memories.

He felt as if he owed Crystal.

Just as his thoughts were jumbled together, Alfred called him.

Henry answered the phone immediately. "Uncle Alfred!"

Alfred's voice was deep as he said, "We've secured evidence against Jason, Henry. He's been imprisoned but will soon be released due to his status. We'll do our best to prosecute him as soon as possible."

Henry pursed his lips.
