Crystal’s One Night of Love novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Henry’s Decision 

Crystal was a little charmed. 

Her slender fingers caressed her phone. After some hesitation, she decided not to reply right away. Instead, she would send it half an hour later. 

‘Sorry, Mr. Miller. I fell asleep.’ 

Meanwhile, Henry was holding a glass of wine in his hand. When he saw Crystal’s message, he chuckled lightly. 

Miss Winters‘ reserved attitude is a little cute, he thought. 

He didn’t reply to the message as he slowly sipped the wine in the goblet. 

In the next few days, Henry never appeared again. However, he would send Crystal a WhatsApp message or two every so often. Sometimes he would send a photo or some sentences. The tone in those messages seemed lazy but was filled with the unique aura of a mature man. 

Crystal/didn’t reply all the time. 

However, they knew very well the ambiguous situation between them. 

Early in the morning, Crystal received a phone call from Henry on her way to work. 

She hesitated before picking up. “Mr. Miller?” 

Henry was sitting in his car with a document placed on his knees. It was the document for John’s case. 

He remembered that when he asked Jake for the documents last night, Jake had smiled meaningfully and said, “Henry, why did you change your mind? Is it because of Miss Winters? She looks decent to me, and Seth likes her too…” 

Back then, Henry just smiled faintly and asked Jake not to tell Crystal. 

He said he would think about it a little longer. 

Right now, Henry was flipping through the document as he said to Crystal, “I’ll be on a business trip for one week. When I come back… let’s meet up. I have something to say to you.” 

Crystal couldn’t figure out what was going on, but she knew that she wouldn’t lose anything if she were on good terms with Henry. 

And so, she whispered a ‘yes‘. 

Henry suddenly felt his heart softening. He lowered his voice and purred as if talking to a lover, “Why are you so obedient and soft? Don’t you know that men will bully you if you behave like this?” 

Crystal’s face turned red and she couldn’t say anything for a long while. 

Henry chuckled and let her off. 

After ending the call, he looked at the document for a long time. Making this decision wasn’t merely a trade to him, for it also contained his pity for Crystal. He decided he would do this as compensation for 

her.

On the other end, Crystal put down her phone, trying to guess what Henry would talk to her about a week later. 

She was so occupied with her thoughts that she almost missed her stop. 

She hurried to the music center. When she clocked in, her colleagues were looking at her with a weird expression. 

Crystal didn’t understand why, but in the end, a colleague she was close to told her secretly, “Crystal, the director knows about you working a part–time job outside, so you’ll probably be summoned to her office later. I heard that Clementine was the one who snitched. You and Clementine joined the music center at the same time, and you’ve been so good at teaching that the talented students keep taking lessons from you. She has been upset about this for a long time, and now she has finally found a chance.” 

Crystal was stunned to hear that. 

The colleague whispered many more things, like how everyone could understand her current predicament and such.
