Chapter 75 A Clean Break
Crystal lowered her eyes with a smirk.
She was under no illusions about her relationship with Henry, yet the latter never mistreated her and didn’t try to hide the fact they were together.
Crystal’s silence elicited a sneer from Robert.
All this while, he had thought that she had a soft character. Little did he expect her to be so. ruthless when she steeled her heart.
Then again, I should’ve expected it!
Back when he broke up with Crystal over the phone after pursuing Melora, he had expected her to tearfully beg him to stay. Contrary to his expectations, she simply stayed silent for at minute before responding with just an “okay.”
Ever since that day, she never spoke to him again.
It was as if their relationship for the past four years never happened. Not only did she leave. her things in the condominium, but she also blocked him on social media.
When Robert realized that she was making a clean break then, he had a sudden epiphany.
Did she ever love me before? Otherwise, how can she move on so easily?
With that, Robert turned around abruptly and left.
On his way down, he retrieved the condominium key from his pocket and dumped it into the trash.
Meanwhile, Crystal was still standing outside when Anna’s voice rang out. “Crystal, why haven’t you come back in?”
After calling back in acknowledgment, Crystal collected herself before returning inside the house.
As John had fallen asleep, Crystal packed up and prepared to leave while Anna walked her
out.
The moment the door opened, the cigarette butts that covered the floor were impossible to
miss.

Patting Anna’s hand, Crystal reassured her. “Don’t worry. I know.”
It was then she received a call from Henry.
However, Anna’s presence made it feel awkward to chat.

As Anna knowingly returned to the house, she couldn’t help but wonder upon closing the door. Wouldn’t it be great if things worked out between Crystal and Mr. Miller? She has indeed been through a lot. Despite her not mentioning it, I noticed the pink diamond necklace on her neck was gone. That’s the only item her mother left her.
Over the next few days, Henry stayed in the office.
It wasn’t until Friday that he called to inform Crystal that he would spend the night at the condominium. The latter blushed as she replied, “Okay,”
Having not seen her for a few days put Henry in a flirtatious mood.
“You seem elated. Have you been missing me? Which part of me are you longing for?”
I can’t believe how shameless he can be! Despite looking all serious on the outside, he’s actually a closet pervert.
Reciprocating his teasing, Crystal replied softly. “Every part of you!”
Her brazen response caught Henry by surprise.
The anticipation he felt for the next night intensified further. Even though Crystal had hinted to him that she was a virgin, Henry simply thought that she was just teasing him and didn’t take her seriously.
Henry gulped before he replied, “You little devil!”
Crystal continued softly. “I’ll help you fill the tub.”
When Crystal ended the call right after she finished, Henry loosened his tie to catch his breath.
Thereafter, he closed his laptop before grabbing his jacket and striding out. Jamie was surprised by his actions, for she had assumed Henry was going to work through the night.
Being in a particularly good mood, Henry wrote a cheque for fifty thousand. He subsequently instructed Jamie to take everyone out for dinner as a reward for their hard. work recently.
While signing it, the faint smile on his face made him look inexplicably dashing.
Jamie thought to herself. He seems to be in a wonderful mood. I’m sure it because he excited to go and see Miss Winters. Looks like he has developed feelings for
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.
