Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 109

Chapter 109 Do Not Worry

It had been days since Crystal met Henry.

She couldn’t help but feel somewhat delighted while being hugged by him.

Gently, she touched his forehead, which was still burning slightly.

Crystal bit her lip. How did he take care of himself for the past few days?

She caressed his handsome face and mouthed the words, “I’ll get the thermometer.”

Henry held her hand, preventing her from leaving. Swiftly, he ended the call, pressed her on the couch, and kissed her.

Crystal looked away.

In a quavering voice, she said, “Don’t. You still have a fever.”

Henry leaned closer to her and saw the fine hair on her neck, which he thought was quite cute.

He said hoarsely, “What does it matter? Maybe I’ll recover sooner.”

Crystal refused to relent.

She turned her head back and stroked his face. “You’re still sick. Listen to me, okay?”

Henry narrowed his eyes at her for a while before sitting up. “Make me something to eat. I need to drop by the office later.”

Crystal nodded, then headed to the kitchen. While the water was boiling, she grabbed the first–aid kit and measured Henry’s temperature with the thermometer inside.

Thirty–eight point eight degree Celsius. I knew it. He’s still having a fever.

She poured him a glass of water before approaching him again with a fever–reducing pill.

Henry usually refused to take medicine. He glanced at Crystal and demanded, “Feed me!”

He was sick, so Crystal gave way to him and delivered the medicine to his lips.

While staring at Crystal, he licked his lips, leaving them wet.

Crystal couldn’t help but blush.

She then made him drink some water. Once he appeared to be feeling better, she went to the kitchen to serve him a bowl of fruity oatmeal. When she brought the bowl to the dining room, she saw him smoking on the couch.

As he wasn’t feeling well, he coughed after taking a few puffs.

Crystal snatched his cigarette away and extinguished it.

Henry wasn’t angry at her. He leaned back on the couch and raised his chin, signaling her to feed him.

Crystal wasn’t annoyed by that at all. What kind of person can become his wife and endure his picky attitude? But regardless of what happens in the future, I can’t reject him right now.

As she fed him the oatmeal, he started touching her inappropriately.

Right after she finished feeding him and placed the bowl on the table, she was pulled to his lap.

“Henry… you’re still sick.” She tried to get up.

Henry grabbed her chin with one hand and kissed her, while his other hand moved toward her crotch.

“Don’t move, and just enjoy,” he whispered next to her ear in his hoarse voice.

Half an hour later, Crystal changed her clothes in the dressing room.

She blushed slightly as she thought about what had transpired.

It was the first time Henry had focused on pleasuring her instead of himself.

“Crystal, are you done?”

Upon hearing his hoarse voice from outside, Crystal snapped back to her senses and finished dressing up.

Inside the elevator, she asked softly, “Can’t you leave your work for tomorrow? You need rest!”

Henry glanced at her. “I need to chair a meeting.”

Crystal shut her mouth because if she continued, she would be overstepping her boundary, which would annoy him and make her uncomfortable.

Once they arrived at the parking lot on the first floor, she opened the door to a white BMW.

Henry narrowed his eyes.

She clearly bought this new car, but she didn’t spend much money with the card I gave her. This must mean she used her own money to buy this.

Henry sat in the passenger seat, loosened his tie a little, and asked casually, “Why didn’t you use my card?”

Not wanting to confront him head–on, Crystal explained vaguely, “Dad’s fine now, and my family is doing well. Madam Anna gave me some money, so I used it to buy the car.”

Henry pressed his hand on the steering wheel, preventing her from driving. “And?”

Crystal didn’t plan to hide the truth from him, so she said, “I plan to set up a music center with a former colleague of mine. The preparation’s almost done.”

With that, she looked at him silently.

While she was an independent individual who didn’t need to ask for his permission before doing anything, she did so to avoid arguments with him.

Henry removed his hand from the steering wheel and leaned against his seat. “You’re not planning to study in the Kingdom of Brundela anymore?”

That question surprised Crystal.

After a brief moment of contemplation, she replied, “Don’t worry, Mr. Miller, When the day comes, I won’t cling to you or destroy anything. It doesn’t matter if I go to the Kingdom of Brundela or not.”

Her eyes reddened slightly when she finished her sentence.

Henry looked at her quietly.

It wasn’t a happy conversation, and they both knew that.

It’s been days since I met her, and I just pleasured her. I’ll be a b*stard if I bully her again after she took such good care of me.

Henry smiled warmly. “What’s going on? You even called me Mr. Miller. Actually, I think it’s pretty good that a woman has her own career.”

Crystal relaxed. I must say, Henry sure knows how to read the room. He didn’t oppose my plan, and he even shared his opinion from a professional angle. I like it.

As she drove, she spoke about the music center and brought up a crucial issue she was facing. “It’s so hard to find a location for it, but I think we’ll find a suitable place eventually. Emelia is quite well– connected.”

Henry had always been patient, and her sharing session had naturally resolved the conflict in his heart before his business trip. When he alighted from the car, Crystal asked, “I’ll pick you up tonight?”

Henry chuckled. “What kind of man am I if I let a woman drive me to and from work every day? If word of this gets out, I’ll lose my dignity.”

Crystal didn’t insist. Instead, she reminded him to take his temperature. “If your fever doesn’t go away, I’ll accompany you to the hospital tomorrow.”

Henry smiled and entered the office building.

Instead of heading straight to the meeting, he summoned Jamie and requested, “Help me check Miss Winters‘ transaction records.” Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Jamie was stunned and immediately guessed that Henry had a dispute with Crystal.

Immediately, she carried out the task. Less than ten minutes later, she placed the information he had asked for in front of him. “This is the transaction records of the card you provided her with, Mr. Miller. Since a week ago, Miss Winters has stopped using it.”

Henry asked Jamie to leave the office first.

He looked at the records quietly and leaned back in his chair.

She doesn’t spend my money, she bought a car on her own, and now she wants to have her own career. They are very much the decisions of a woman with a good upbringing. I’ve never suspected her character, and I know she’s easily satisfied when it comes to her materialistic needs. However, I’m willing to be her sugar daddy right now. Even when we split up one day, I’ll still try to compensate her. But not right now. What she’s doing at the moment isn’t something I want! What I want is something simpler. I’m aware of her temperament. If I don’t respect her feelings, she’ll stop treating and taking care of me nicely. In that case, I’ll need to concede.

He summoned Jamie back into his office.

She thought it was because he was ready to start the meeting. However, when she stepped in, she saw Henry drinking coffee, and he asked, “Do I have any land that’s at a pretty good location and is about two hundred square meters large?”
