    Chapter 79 Pleased


    The sight of everyone extinguishing their cigarettes simultaneously was truly impressive.


    Crystal felt both embarrassed and furious.


    When did I ever stop Henry from smoking? Back home, he does as he pleases. He will even smoke in


    bed while propping himself against the headboard. And whenever he desires, he shamelessly indulges


    in kisses with me!


    Nheless, Crystal couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction as numerous influential men dutifully


    adhered to Henry’smands.


    Henry shed a charming smile. “Miss Winters, do you feel respected?”


    Crystal was confident that the horrible rumors about her would soon be debunked. After all, numerous


    individuals eager to curry favor with Henry would willingly step forward to rify the situation on her


    behalf.


    However, none of that mattered right now as she only had eyes for Henry.


    Wrapping an arm around Crystal, Henry led her into the hall.


    The cunning individuals had already risen from their prime seats in the hall. They gestured. for Henry


    and Crystal to take their ces. The school leaders greeted Crystal with warm. smiles and kindly


    reminded her, “Crystal, please ensure Mr. Miller is well taken care of.”


    Crystal merely shed a smile in response.


    After that, many people came to clink sses with Henry.


    Henry could hold his liquor well, but he was selective about who he drank with.


    None of the individuals in this hall held enough significance for him to share a drink with. them, so he


    settled for water and offeredckluster responses to their greetings.


    Crystal was used to taking care of him and proceeded to serve him food.

    Madison was seated across from them. At that moment, she didn’t even feel like teasing. Crystal as her


    eyes had turned red.


    I wish you happiness, you little fool.


    Based on how Henry treated Crystal, Madison was confident that even if he didn’t end up


    merving her he would still ensure that she was taken care of. Unlock seeded


    The hall buzzed with activity, yet Clementine remained frozen at the entrance, caught in at state of


    shock.


    When she eventually regained herposure, she felt her cheeks ming in embarrassment. Her


    intention had been to humiliate Crystal, but in an ironic twist, she ended up humiliating herself instead.


    The expensive dress that she begrudgingly purchased turned out to be nothing more than a joke.


    I can’t believe Crystal hooked up with Henry. Why is this happening? How am I inferior to her?


    Jealousy clouded Clementine’s judgment. Without hesitation, she grabbed a ss of red wine. and


    marched all the way to Henry and Crystal’s table.


    A beautiful smile yed on her lips as she raised her ss and introduced herself, “Mr. Miller, I’m


    Crystal’s university mate. Nice to meet you.”


    Henry was relishing in the attentive care provided by Crystal when their moment was abruptly


    interrupted by Clementine’s sudden appearance. As he nced up, he realized that she was Robert’s


    lover.


    He took a napkin and wiped his hand clean slowly. Endowed with abundant privileges since birth, he


    possessed striking physical features and slender fingers that made him appear as though he had


    stepped out of a painting.


    Tossing the napkin away, Henry trained his gaze on Crystal as though he had nothing but. respect for


    her.


    “Will you be upset if I get to know her?”


    Clementine felt humiliated when she heard his question.


    Everyone was casting her suggestive looks. Many of them were well aware of her ndestine affair


    with Robert. He often had sex with her and made no effort to conceal their rtionship, indicating his


    indifference toward her.


    The crowd couldn’t believe Clementine was bold enough to flirt with Henry in public.


    After all, Crystal was right beside him!


    Knowing well how wicked Henry could be, Crystal adamantly refused to be a pawn in his game.


    “You are at liberty to do as you please.”


    Henry pinched her cheek affectionately and stopped teasing her.


    To everyone’s surprise, he stood up and replied politely, “Miss Dynah, cheers.”


    What the heck?


    Everyone could barely hide their shock at his poor taste.


    A charming smile yed on Henry’s lips as he continued, “However, I drove here myself. and I need to


    give Crystal a ride backter. Robert, I believe you have a chauffeur, don’t you? Do finish this drink with


    Miss Dynah on my behalf.”
