Chapter 336 Do You Still Love Me 4
Crystal woke
The first thing she saw was Henry seated by her side. He was patting her hair. Feeling awkward that he
was being a bit too close, she sat up. “How long have I been asleep?”
Henry pulled his hand back. He stared at her for a moment, then a smile curled his lips. “About an hour
or so.”
Crystal got up and changed into her shoes: “Did it hold you up?”
Henry held her hand.
Crystal looked at him. “What is it?”
Henry pinched her nose. “It’s all right. No work is more important than you, Mrs. Miller.”
Crystal put on a small smile.

She felt soft to the touch, perhaps because she had just woken up. It had been a while since he had
kissed her. Even though this was not the best ce to kiss, Henry still went in for one.
“Henry…” Crystal leaned on his shoulder.
Henry couldn’t hold back anymore. He pried her mouth open gently and slid his tongue in.
A long, long while went by before Henry was satisfied. Crystal leaned on his shoulder weakly, her face
red from the kiss.
Henry wrapped his arms around her waist. He wished to go deeper, but he wouldn’t go at it that easily,
lest she hate him. Feeling his desire, Crystal said, “Let’s do it tonight.”
He shouldn’t be holding his urges in all the time. She wasn’t going to get a divorce either. It wasn’t as if
she had no feelings for him.
Henrynguidly patted her. They went downstairs and got into the car. Wishing to stay with Crystal
longer, he gently said, “Why don’t we go to work together? You can take a nap at my office. We’ll get off
work early and pick Skyler up.”
Crystal mused over it. “Someone needs to take care of Remi.”
Henry was disappointed, but he took her home anyway. Slowly, he drove away from the clinic.
A Mercedes-Benz came to a stop at the parking lot and out came a woman. She almost looked like a
golden statue. Everything on her was gleaming.
It was Clementine. A slight sneer curled her lips. She had seen Crystal at the clinic earlier, and she had
thought she was seeing things, but she was not.
Everyone thinks she’s living the big life. Can’t believe she has to see a therapist. The ss reunion’s
coming real soon. If everyone knows of her condition, no one’s going to envy her life anymore.
This clinic was an upscale one, however. It was almost impossible to gain any files of their patient.
Clementine had to spend a huge sum of money to bribe a nurse who handled the record room to get
the files
Post-partum depression, shaky marriage, and sex only once a month….
Clementine was grinning like a mad woman.
The nurse was a little scared, and Clementine sent her away. Once the nurse was gone, Clementine
went into her car and made a call. “Hey, is this the daily news? I have something you might be
interested in.”
Clementine hung up and smirked. The marriage is scarred. It has no reason to exist. Henry will never
stay with a woman who’s mentally ill. He can have any woman he wants. Women who are vastly better.
He’s at his prime. Any woman would love to have his child.
Just the thought of plunging that woman into hell filled Clementine with delight. She couldn’t wait to see
Crystal humiliated and Madison in pain. She wouldn’t be happy until both of them suffered.
The daily news released news about Crystal’s condition that afternoon. They uploaded pictures that
prove Crystal’s condition, and there was even Crystal’s voice recording.
The photos were of a patient’s record. It wrote of post-partum depression, shaky marriage, and the
couple’s nightly activities.
The news began trending, and with the voice recording backing the stories up, Henry and Crystal’s
private life wasid bare for the public to see..
A storm was brewing in Barnwood. Everyone was waiting for Henry to make a statement. Whatever he
said would make an impact on the share prices of Seeas Corporation and Miller Corporation.
Jamie entered Henry’s office. Henry was on a call, and Crystal was on the other end of the phone.
Of course, they knew of the news. They were the ones in it. Henry did not bring it up right away,
however. He gently said to her, “I’ll pick Skyler up. You stay at home. Is Remi’s food running out? I’ll get
some on my way back. Anything else you need?”
Crystal was sitting before the Morning Dew piano. She saw what was trending, and she knew why
Henry called her.
A moment of silence ensued.
A long whileter, Henry said softly, “I’ll call a press conferenceter in the afternoon. Don’t worry
about. anything. Just leave it to me. You do whatever you want.”
Crystal yed the piano with one hand, and then she paused. A momentter, she said, “I want to
know who’s behind this.”
Henry nodded and hung up. He stared at the phone, musing over something.
Jamie said nervously, “Mr. Miller, some daily news leaked the news first, but we found no evidence of
them being bought out.”
Henry leaned against his chair and spun around. He looked at Jamie. “Find the main editor and tell the
guards to…. have a chat with them. Find out who’s the one who leaked the files. If he won’t tell, then
he’ll have to… stay with us for a bit longer.”
Jamie knew Henry too well. The man was furious, and once he found out who was behind this, he
would make them pay.
Henry added, “Prepare for a press conference.”
Jamie immediately went to work.
Henry was about to call Melora and ask her to meet up with Crystal, but his father got to him first.
David was livid. Hembasted his son and called him useless for failing to protect his wife.
Momentster, he said, “Your mother’s on her way.”
Henry was touched.
David then discussed measures with him. In the end, he with annoyance, said, “Tell me the truth,
Henry. Did the injection make you impotent?”
Once a month? Any woman would find better prospects.
Henry was amused and annoyed. “I am more virile than ever, Dad, but this isn’t a one-man show, is it?”
Consent was the name of the game. He couldn’t just satisfy himself while leaving Crystal hanging. He
couldn’t.
David was just trying to get confirmation. He was relieved to find out that his son was fine. As long as
he was healthy enough, there was always a way out of this rut.
“Pay more attention to her. Take on more of the chores, so she can have more time for herself. If you’re
still too busy, your mother and I can take care of Remi while you run Miller Corporation.”
Henry hung up. He wanted to call Crystal, but he knew his mother could handle things well.
Half an hourter, Jamie came back in. “Mr. Miller, the press conference will begin soon. All of
Barnwood’s main news outlets are here. Don’t worry. I’ve given them some stern warnings. They won’t
write anything stupid.”
Henry got up and straightened his clothes.
A hundred or so reporters were gathered in Seeas Corporation’s conference room number one. Their
cameras were aimed at the stage, and everyone was whispering among themselves.
The news was a bombshell. They were wondering if Henry would announce a divorce or show up with
his wife and disprove the allegations.
Slowly, the conference room door was opened. In came Henry, looking regal andposed. He didn’t
look like he was going to announce a divorce.
Before the reporters could say anything, he spoke into the microphone.
“First, let me say that I reserve the right to sue the one who leaked my wife’s private files to the daily
news. Second, I am not getting a divorce. And third…”
Henry smiled at the cameras, his eyes twinkling with love. “Crystal, I’m going to do my best as your
husband or your lover. We have a long life ahead of us. I’m sure someday you’ll fall for me, every part
of me, inside and out.”
The crowd went wild. Is this a confession from Henry? If that was true, then he was utterly shameless.
He’d better hupe there were no kids watching this.
Henry was sull smiling. “Our marriage is rocky, but not dl roads are made to be smooth. I will never fall
for any other woman You’re the only woman I want You’re the mother of my children. I’ll give you all my
money, my love And if you have to, you can just do it once a year with me I will never betray you, I
promise.”
Seeas Corporation’swyer came over and calcted Henry’s assets. Then, they gave it all to his wife
right away.
The reporters were dumbfounded. When they went back that day and started writing the articles, they
realized the story could be boiled down to one sentence: Our marriage is none of your business.
