    As Crystal stroked her hair gently, she replied in a regretful tone, “It went out of shape while. I was


    asleep.”

    Henry shed a faint smile before adding. “Send me the time and address. I still have a busy few days


    ahead of me.”


    Crystal ran back into the bedroom to grab her phone and did as he requested.


    Upon receiving it, Henry set a reminder.


    When he raised his gaze back up, he was greeted by the sight of Crystal staring intently at him.


    Cognizant that she was enamored with how handsome he was, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of


    masculine pride as he pinched her cheeks gently. “Have I mesmerized you? Why didn’t you dare look


    when I was taking a shower?”


    The manly charm Henry exuded while speaking caused Crystal to blush.


    While she pretended to clear the table, Henry stopped her. He suggested in a raspy voice, “Leave it for


    the housekeeper tomorrow.”


    Crystal could tell from his tone what his intention was, yet she wasn’t the kind to make the first move.


    On top of that, she still couldn’t figure out what was going through his mind given. that he had refrained


    from sleeping with her so far.


    Thereafter, Henry carried her back into the bedroom and, just like the night. himself in a simple manner.


    As Crystaly in his arms, he whispered into her ear, “We’ll leave the rest for Saturd about that?”


    Nuzzling her face against his warm neck, Crystal was too embarrassed to speak. After spending so


    much time with each other, she knew how domineering Henry was as a person.


    Even in bed, he wanted to dictate everything, including the smallest of details.


    Consequently, Crystal had no choice but to y along with his every whim.


    As she fell asleep from exhaustion deep into the night, Henry watched her beautiful face in the


    darkness.


    He returned to the condominium in a gloomy mood. However, it changed Unlock seeded of the


    bene aner Crystal took meticulous care of him and allowed him to have her.


    All of a sudden, he was overwhelmed with the urge to pamper her.


    After spending a wonderful Saturday night together, she should be delighted to see it upon waking up


    on Sunday morning.


    By the time Crystal woke up the next morning. Henry was already gone. Even the housekeeper had


    cleaned up the ce and left.


    Crystal couldn’t believe how far she had fallen.


    Why have I sumbed to Henry’s charms? Despite their current rtionship, his advances would


    always ignite the lust within her.


    Can it be that I’m addicted to this? I just didn’t realize it until Henry inadvertently discovered this side of


    me?


    She didn’t dare think about it any further as she hurriedly got out of bed to shower.


    Due to ack of work recently, she spent her free time with her father and Anna.


    John had already been discharged and returned to his home in a high-end residential area.


    Whenever he inquired why Crystal wasn’t staying at home, Anna would always cover for thetter.


    After lunch, Crystal was helping Anna wash some fruits when thetter asked softly, “I heard that


    b*stard, Robert, is having a tough time. Is that true? Did Henry really teach him a lesson?”


    Crystal nodded in response.


    She had heard about what happened to Robert from Madison. Thetter told her that Henry did show


    some mercy in the end. Despite Robert’s pathetic condition, he would likely. recover in a month or two.


    After Crystal rted it to Anna, thettermented through gritted teeth. “He got off easy this time!”


    Nheless, Crystal remained indifferent to it. “All that matters is that Dad is all right. At the end of the


    day, Robert is Henry’s future brother-inw. There’s no way he would destroy hist sister’s marriage


    because of me.”


    As an epiphany struck Anna, she eximed, “Crystal, I have let you down!”


    Even though she had dered that she would never sell her daughter, she still stood idly by and


    watched as Crystal grew increasingly close to Henry. She would lie to herself in an attempt to assuage


    her conscience despite knowing that Henry wasn’t a good person.


    However, Crystal shook her head. “It’s not your fault, Madam Anna!”


    She wasn’t John’s biological daughter, yet thetter not only showered her with love but also didn’t


    have his own children for her sake. Hence, she felt there was nothing she wouldn’t sacrifice to repay


    her debt of gratitude.
