Chapter 21 Henry Is Taking Care of You, so It’s Only Natural You’re Recovering Faster
Crystal was very embarrassed.
However, Henry was quite shameless. He insisted on letting her finish the glass of water before letting her go and speaking to the doctor. “Miss Winters was dragged into trouble because of Melora, so it’s only natural that I take care of her.”
Dr. Lane seemed to be in a good mood. “I see! Your identities change so quickly!”
After giving Crystal a checkup and confirming that she was fine, Dr. Lane smiled and said, “Henry is taking care of you, so it’s only natural you’re recovering faster.”
Crystal’s face turned unimaginably hot.
Dr. Lane chuckled as he left.
Crystal took out her phone to call Anna, but Henry said, “I already asked for time off on your behalf, and I’ve also told your Aunt Anna that you’d be on a business trip for a few days.”
Crystal fell silent.
Henry seemed to be oblivious to her dissatisfaction as he said lightly, “I’ll ask my assistant to deliver your meals.”
Crystal couldn’t hold it in anymore.
She asked Henry, “Are you keeping an eye on me in case I destroy your sister’s happiness?”
Henry was leaning against the headboard and sending a WhatsApp message to his assistant. When he heard her question, he smiled.
“What are you planning to destroy it with, Miss Winters? Your body? Or that horrible past relationship? I thought Robert already made his decision. Why is it taking you so long to process this, Miss Winters?”
”
He was so good–looking, but his words were ruthless. The little bit of affinity Crystal felt toward him was gone without a trace.
She turned her back to him on purpose.
Henry crossed his slender legs as he looked at the woman on the bed, smiling slightly.
I think she’s mad now.
About half an hour later, Henry’s assistant arrived with dinner.
When the assistant caught sight of Crystal, they remembered that they had seen this lady before, for she had visited the law firm once.
The assistant thought that it was just Crystal’s one–sided pursuit, but Henry was quite caring toward her as well, taking care of her and pulling strings to get her treated and such.

Crystal was in a bad mood and wasn’t thinking about such things. In truth, she was starving, so she opened. the wooden lunch box after saying thanks.
It was mushroom soup, which was easily digestible and suitable for a patient’s consumption.
It smelled delicious.
Warmth flowed through Crystal’s heart as she realized how considerate Henry was. She had always been a soft person, and at that moment, she was so touched that she lowered her head. “Thank you so much for today, Mr. Miller!”
Meanwhile, Henry didn’t have the intention of having dinner with her.
He still had his legs crossed as he dealt with work on his phone. He said nonchalantly, “You’re welcome, Miss Winters. After all, I have my own motives, don’t I?”
Crystal was stunned by his words.
She owed him one, and he was a powerful figure, so she humbled herself and said, “I’m so sorry for assuming things about you.”
Henry looked up at her, whereas Crystal allowed him to keep looking at her.
Deep down, she knew that he liked her looks and figure, for his gaze was tinted with certain desire.
Henry had enough of gazing as he slowly put away his phone. “Do you mean it?”
He was so intimidating that Crystal didn’t dare meet his gaze. She pretended to drink some soup as she answered, “Yes.”
Henry seemed to be satisfied with her answer. Then, he left with his assistant.
The ward fell silent.
Crystal lay alone on the bed, feeling the emptiness of her surroundings. She still felt a little uncomfortable, so she just closed her eyes and went to sleep.
When she woke up again, it was 9.00PM.
Since she was in the VIP ward, it was especially quiet at night. Only the sounds of rustling leaves and chirping creatures could be heard.
Crystal walked up to the window and opened it.
There was a garden downstairs filled with vegetation. Flowers and grass decorated the area, and they were in full bloom during early summer.
All of a sudden, Crystal felt like going downstairs for a walk.
A moment later, she was stepping on the soft lawn as she took in the scent of fresh grass. She felt relaxed.
The moon was bright and the stars were dispersed, and everything was silent.
As Crystal was planning her desolate future, a soft voice sounded. “Robert, just kiss me again, please…”
Belonging naturally to the metropolitan elite with a plethora of properties registered to his name, Henry Miller was the preeminent attorney in the country. Nevertheless, he also assumed an additional role—Robert's forthcoming brother-in-law. Crystal hesitated momentarily, but then she mused, If Robert can cheat on me, why can't I indulge and enjoy myself too?Instead of pushing Henry away, she held onto him even tighter as she was beautiful and had an attractive figure.
