Chapter 58 Henry, I Want to Make You Happy
Henry was not angry at all.
He only chuckled as he went into the closet to get his clothes before he took a shower.
Seeing this, Crystal breathed a sigh of relief and continued talking on the phone with Madison.
As she didn’t want to talk about Robert, she changed the topic by asking, “You wanted to talk about something else, right?”
Madison was silent for a moment before she announced, “There is a class reunion for our university, and I heard that Clementine is the organizer. That b*tch has his own agenda and wants to team up with Terra Lake University.”
Terra Lake University? Clementine will surely invite Robert as well because he is also an alumnus.
Crystal immediately knew that she didn’t want to go.
Madison was also enraged as she shouted, “That woman is unbelievable! She can secretly be a mistress all she wants since she enjoys it so much, but now she wants the whole world to congratulate her! She is trying to go against you, don’t you think? She keeps telling everyone you are holed up at home because you’re heartbroken and unemployed.”
Crystal didn’t want to deal with someone like Clementine.
She only said she would consider it before she hung up the phone. As soon as she looked up, she saw Henry standing at the bathroom door in a bathrobe. The man’s fantastic figure was a sight for sore eyes.
Crystal even forgot to look away.
He walked up to her while wiping his wet hair and leaned down. “A class reunion?” he asked with a chuckle. “That is where extramarital affairs happen.”
Crystal bit her lower lip. “I’m not married, though.”
“But you are mine now,” he purred, his voice low and tempting. His tall nose bridge was now pressed against hers.
Suddenly, Crystal thought that her past relationship had been a waste of her life.
She hadn’t lost out at all during her time with Henry.
Hugging his neck, she intentionally uttered in a soft voice, “Should I check in with you?”
Henry proceeded to reward her for that.
They spent half the day rolling the sheets
After they were done, Crystal rested her chin on his shoulder and whispered, “Actually, I haven’t decided yet,
but there is one thing I have decided.” This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
“Yeah?”
She held his handsome face and breathed, “Henry, the only thing I want now is to make you happy.”
His dark pupils darkened with desire in that instant.
The blushing woman then leaned in for a kiss on his lips.
Crystal went to the hospital the next day.
John’s mental state had improved a lot. Relieved, Crystal discussed with Anna about moving back home.
Anna suddenly mentioned Henry after they talked.
The older woman must have had a good impression of him as she specifically mentioned, “Remember to get along with Mr. Miller. Who knows? You might actually end up together.”
Crystal only smiled faintly in response.
How could she possibly hang on to someone of his background and character? And what she gave him was exactly what he wanted–a relationship with no strings attached. She couldn’t bring herself to think about the far future.
She didn’t say much to Anna as she promptly left the hospital.
She had just walked to the hospital entrance when a white BMW suddenly stopped in front of her.
The car window then rolled down, only to reveal a stern–faced Madison.
“Get in. I have something to tell you.”
Crystal obediently got into the car. While fastening her seatbelt, she asked, “What’s wrong? Did you have an argument with your husband?”
Madison was annoyed and she wanted to smoke. However, she held back as she had to maintain her image in front of Crystal.
She then drove them to a cafe.
After they were seated, Crystal pushed a bank card and a small present she bought in Madison’s direction. The card had the amount Crystal owed Madison.
Madison wasn’t in the mood to care about the money or gift. Instead, she showed Crystal her phone.
“Clementine is dead set on f*cking you up. Just look at how aggressively she has been slandering your name on the school forum.”
Crystal immediately started scrolling.
As expected, all the posts were negative news about her.
Looking to be with old men, finding a nouveau riche, having an ambiguous relationship with an unknown man… In short, she was depicted as a woman with a dirty private life.
Madison hissed, “You are a teacher who teaches children, Crystal! Who would dare to let you teach their children after Clementine pulls this sh*t? The one thing wealthy women hate the most is other women seducing their husbands! It will be hard for you to get out of this unless you have a man more capable than their spouse!”
