Chapter 371 Going Back Soon 1

Crystal was obedient.

She left with Madison first.

Henry turned to Charles and said, "If you want to pursue Madison, wait until things settle down. Don't let people gossip about her! Make sure you clean up your own mess too!"

Charles remained silent.

Henry then glanced at Zachary and did not say a word.

He was a mature man and was able to sense what had happened. It was no wonder Madison couldn't stand it.

This was also the outcome Henry wanted.

He understood Zachary. Driven by anger and shame, Zachary wouldn't want Clementine.

Moreover, he wouldn't feel guilty. He had just accelerated what was bound to happen.

Soon, Henry and Charles left.

Only Zachary and Clementine remained there.

Zachary's face was bruised. He slumped against the wall, smoking.

Clementine approached him and said gently. "Madison doesn't want you, but I'll always be by your side."

Zachary pushed her away.

While smoking, he gazed down at her condescendingly. She was nothing more than a plaything.

"Clementine, you don't seriously think I have feelings for you, do you? This whole affair is just for my convenience. There are things Madison won't do, but you seem more than willing to do them." Clementine cursed at him, calling him a jerk.

Zachary snorted. "Take this five hundred thousand and get lost!"

Even if Madison never forgave him, he wouldn't stoop to being with a prostitute.

Zachary left.

Clementine stood there, seething with anger.

When she went downstairs, Zachary was nowhere to be seen.

However, she saw Crystal and Madison.

They were sitting in a car, a golden Bentley Continental worth millions. Crystal was seated in the front passenger seat, next to Henry. She looked like his legitimate girlfriend.

Clementine couldn't believe that someone like Henry would take a liking to Crystal.

However, the reality was that Crystal had gained connections to the prestigious Miller family.

In comparison, she didn't hate Madison too much because she also didn't think highly of Zachary.

The one she envied the most was Crystal.

If there was even a glimmer of hope of her being with Robert, Clementine would have never gotten. together with Zachary.

She loathed Crystal.

At night, Clementine stood in the shadows, occasionally illuminated by a beam of light.

Wearing a long red dress, she looked like a ghost.

Henry opened the window halfway. He sat there quietly, smoking half a cigarette. Of course, he had seen Clementine and the hatred in her eyes.

He stepped on the gas pedal, driving Crystal away from the entrance of the club.

Inside the car, Madison sat in silence,

Crystal wanted to climb into the backseat to comfort her, but Henry wouldn't allow it. He gripped her hand and gestured for her to stay beside him. "Where are we going?" Crystal asked softly,

Henry held her hand and said. "We're going to my place."

Crystal felt that it was inappropriate.

However, in Henry's heart, she was his wife, and that place was her home.

It was perfectly fine for Crystal to occasionally bring a friend back.

The luxurious car streaked through the night like a shooting star.

Henry considerately opened the door to the guest room for Madison. It had a fully equipped bathroom

too.

He then said to Crystal in a low voice, "There are a lot of your clothes in the master bedroom. Get some for Madison."

Crystal was quite surprised. Since when do I have clothes here?

Madison was quite nosey.

Even though she was sad, she could still smell something juicy.

She sniffled and asked Crystal, "Are you two living together?"

Crystal had no idea how to explain to her.

In the master bedroom, she opened the door to the walk-in closet and huffed, "When did I ever leave my

clothes here? You're talking nonsense and tarnishing my reputation!"

However, when she opened the door, she found that the whole closet was full of clothes from brands she loved.

The price tags were still attached.

She also noticed that there were some dresses.

They were quite feminine and elegant, something girls her age rarely wore.

With a guy keeping her in his thoughts like that, she felt a warmth spreading in her heart. She pulled the tags and said in a gentler tone, "I never said I'm moving in or anything like that." Henry approached her and hugged her from behind.

He kissed her neck, his voice husky as he said, "Didn't you spend the night here?"

Crystal hurriedly clarified, "We didn't do anything..."

"Do you want to?"

Crystal's face turned beet red. He was being naughty.

Henry looked at her coy expression and chuckled softly. He caressed her slender waist as he murmured, "Crystal, no man wouldn't want to, but you're still too young. Let's wait a little longer." Crystal, feeling both embarrassed and curious, finally mustered the courage and asked, "What age wouldn't be considered too young?"

Henry turned her around, lifted her onto the nearby cabinet, and leaned in to kiss her.

He still remembered how she had dressed up back when they were getting ready for a banquet. They had done it right here in this dressing room.

After a long, deep kiss, he said against her lips, "Let's say twenty-four years old."

Crystal gently held onto his waist.

She felt that everything was happening so unbelievably quickly and yet it was all so natural. She loved this place, and she loved Henry. She even enjoyed his kisses and touches.

After a long and affectionate moment, Henry gently patted her and said, "Get some clothes for Madison. Don't worry about her. Charles really likes her, and they'll probably end up together in the future." Crystal blinked, feeling as though he knew everything

Her admiration for him grew even stronger.

She took the clothes and was about to leave when Henry grabbed her and whispered, "Come sleep with me later."

Crystal lowered her head, her face red.

At night, Henry finished his shower and leaned back against the headboard in his black bathrobe to smoke.

While smoking, he was contemplating the next steps.

Clementine had been dumped by Zachary, and she would probably take her anger out on Crystal.

He thought that he needed to assign more bodyguards to ensure Crystal's safety.

The bedroom door creaked open right then, and a little head poked in.

Henry looked at her, then patted the spot next to him, inviting her to come and sleep. Crystal felt a bit embarrassed.

As a young girl, she felt ashamed of herself for following him around like a puppy.

She slowly moved over, and as soon as she got under the sheets, he pinned her down. Crystal had fair skin, and as her body lay exposed against the black sheets, she looked stunning.

She was afraid, and her voice trembled as she said, "Henry, you said you would wait until I'm twenty-four years old."

She was tender and young, and even if Henry could control himself from taking things too far, he couldn't resist the more intimate gestures that couples naturally shared.

Moreover, he wanted to see her enjoying his touch.

Henry clasped his fingers with her, gently kissing the corner of her mouth and telling her not to be afraid.

However, how could she not be afraid?

The whole time, Crystal was crying softly even though she was a twenty-year-old girl who had come across such things before.

In the end, she was crushed.

Her emotions were a jumbled mess, and she was no longer herself.

Henry stayed with her patiently, cradling her in his arms and gently patting her back.

She was all sweaty in his arms and a little ashamed.

At the same time, she was curious about how he could hold himself back when people said that men were even more impulsive than women. Henry leaned closer to her ear and asked, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"

Crystal refused to answer.

It was late at night, and Henry's mood became heavier. He stroked her delicate face and said to her, "Don't go anywhere these days, okay?"

Crystal nodded obediently.

Henry kissed her, thinking that she was such a good girl

He wished that all this was real and that he had met Crystal when she was twenty. He would have given her the best of everything.

Crystal didn't think much of anything and slept soundly.

Henry was thinking about his wife in the real world even though there was a younger version of her lying in his arms right now.

As dawn broke, the door suddenly swung open. Madison stood there and said boldly, "I've figured it out! It's just a breakup, right? I'm still awesome!"

Henry was embracing Crystal, who was still sleeping, and he was quite upset when Madison stormed in.

He immediately called Charles and said, "Come and take Madison away!"

Madison stammered, "W-Why are you asking him to come and get me?"

Henry got out of bed and put on his clothes. He didn't wear anything on top, and there were a few cute bite marks on his abdomen. Madison was dumbfounded.

Henry slept with Crystal!

Besides, this guy has a great body!

Madison accidentally got a nosebleed, which made Henry even more upset. He put on his clothes and dragged her to the bathroom in the guest room.

Madison washed her nose and grumbled, "Henry, you jerk! Crystal hasn't even held a man's hand yet, and you just took her virginity like that!"

Henry crossed his arms and sneered.

Ha!

I've already done that long ago, and we even have three children together!

After a while, Charles arrived.

He liked Madison and wanted to pursue her, so he was quite grateful to Henry.

Madison lay on

the dining table.,

She said weakly, "Jenkins, you're going with me to the university anniversary celebration next week. However, I want to make it clear that I haven't agreed to be your girlfriend. I just want to reclaim my honor."

Class reunion?

Henry narrowed his eyes.

After Charles took Madison away, Henry went to the study and browsed the internet.

One minute later, his expression turned solemn.

The university anniversary celebration that year would be held at a theater in Barnwood.

It's the same place where Crystal had her accident.

The same location, the same people... and that familiar chandelier too!
