Chapter 306 Henry Is At It Again
The dim lighting made Henry’s expression look all the more gloomy.
Had Crystal not stopped him, he would have forced himself on her by now.
So what if I could have her body? All it does is satisfy my lust on a physical level. That’s not enough for me! I want more!
Crystal’s fingers were trembling as she buttoned up her skirt.
She walked up the stairs without even looking back. At one point, her legs gave out slightly. causing her to stumble a little.
Henry didn’t stop her from walking away.
His mind was such a mess that he was no longer in the mood to visit Skyler upstairs.
After getting into his car, Henry lit a cigarette and started puffing away.
He had decided to give up on Crystal a few days ago. He figured she was probably right about it being better if they went their separate ways.
However, he found himself feeling jealous when he saw Stefan making a move on her.
If I let go of her, those young punks are all going to hit on her! What if she decides to toy around with them?
Henry continued puffing away on his cigarette inside the car.
The smoke filled the interior of the car and obscured his face.
Just like that, he sat there and smoked about four or five cigarettes before driving away from the mansion. The bodyguards stationed at the entrance of the mansion all had awkward expressions when they saw him.
It was late at night when Henry returned to the Miller residence.
David was still awake and was clearly waiting for him.
Henry slumped against the couch in the living room and let out a huge sigh.
David shot him a displeased look and asked, “Don’t you have a place of your own? Why do you have to stay with us?”
Henry narrowed his eyes. “Melora’s staying here too, isn’t she?”
“You can’t possibly compare yourself to your sister, can you?” David replied with a sneer.
Henry simply let out a chuckle in response.
“Your mother has been crying ever since you and Crystal got divorced. Just how useless can you be?” David added reluctantly after a brief pause.
Henry slowly opened his eyes and spaced out for a few seconds before asking, “Do you want us to get back together too, Dad?”
David cleared his throat and replied casually, “That’s not what I meant. Honestly, it doesn’t really matter if you two get back together. Your mother and I simply think that Crystal might want to move back in if you’re willing to move out.”
That way, we’ll be able to raise our grandkids!
Henry didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he heard that. “There’s no way Crystal would move back here, Dad!”
David glared at him for a few seconds before shaking his head and making his way upstairs. “Then forget about her, and don’t come back!”
Henry leaned weakly against the couch.
The light was so bright that he had to shield his eyes with his hand.
Now that Henry was all by himself, he couldn’t help but think about what had happened. earlier.
Since he and Crystal were both adults in their prime, neither would feel good stopping intercourse halfway through.
Henry really desired her badly even though he couldn’t think of a reason to.
All Henry wanted was to make her his.
Melora, who was going to make a call in the yard, came down the stairs with her phone in her hand.
Alfred had called her, but she didn’t dare talk on the phone upstairs for fear of her parents overhearing her conversation.
Surprised to see Henry, she hung up the phone and sat down beside him.
“Henry, are you thinking about Crystal?”
Henry reached out and wrapped an arm around her shoulder, prompting Melora to leant against his.
It had been a long time since the two of them had gotten this close to each other. Her body felt just as soft and cuddly as it used to be.
After a long time, Henry said, “Tell me about my relationship with Crystal.”
Melora couldn’t help but find it a little strange. “Why are you asking about this now, Henry?”
“Just tell me!”
Melora didn’t think much about it and proceeded to tell him everything she could. remember.
Henry simply sat there and listened in silence.
At about four in the morning, Melora was finally done telling him everything.
“That’s about it, Henry!” she said, feeling extremely thirsty and sleepy.
Henry patted her on the head and said softly. “Go ahead and get some sleep.”
“What’s gotten into you today, Henry?” Melora asked worriedly.
Henry simply flashed her a smile without saying anything.
After sitting downstairs for another half an hour or so, he got up at dawn and returned to his bedroom. He sat at the edge of his bed and flipped through a notebook that he had made a copy of.
He went through the stuff that he had left behind from the past and connected the dots. based on what Melora had told him.
The next morning, Jamie was about to head out from Adroit Law Firm with the document. that Henry had signed when he called out to her, “Jamie, I need you to help me look address.”
“Are you going to work overtime Mr. Miller?” Jamie asked in surprise..
Henry loosened his necktie and cleared his throat. “No, it’s Crystal’s mother. She’s currently in Barnwood, right?”
“There’s no need to look it up! I often help deliver stuff to her on behalf of Miss Winters!” Jamie said with a smile.
She wrote Henry an address.
About half an hour later, Henry showed up at Anna’s condominium unit with shopping bags in his hands and rang the doorbell.
“Who is it?” Anna called out from inside as she opened the door, only to freeze in shock upon seeing him.
“Henry…”
“I came to pay you a visit, Mom!” Henry greeted her with a warm smile as he made his inside.
Anna fell silent when she heard that.
Although Henry and Crystal had gotten divorced, their relationship was far too complicated for Anna to comment on. “You didn’t have to bring so many gifts with you! I haven’t finished. the food that Crys bought me!”
What she really wanted to know was the current status of their relationship.
Henry took his coat off and hung it on the rack before changing into a pair of indoor slippers.
“Oh, these aren’t food. It’s a foot massager. Jamie told me that this product is particularly effective at treating aching legs. Here, let me set it up for you!” he replied while unpacking one of the bags.
He filled the foot massager up with water so that Anna could soak her feet in it while receiving a massage.
Feeling a little uncomfortable with how friendly Henry was, she went to her room and secretly sent Crystal a text: Did you and Henry get back together? He’s here at my place right now.
Upon looking up from her phone, Anna saw Henry standing at the door and let out an awkward chuckle in response.
“We didn’t get back together, Mom. I came here today just to visit you,” Henry said with a smile. He held Anna’s arm and continued in a gentle voice, “Here, give it a try and see if the temperature is right. I’ll refill it if it isn’t.”
Anna was not used to how gentle Henry was being all of a sudden.
Because of his good looks, it wasn’t difficult for him to get on someone’s good side.
However, Anna also knew how hurt her daughter was because of him. After giving it some thought, she said, “I’m happy that you came to visit me, Henry, but I respect Crys’ decision.”
“Don’t get the wrong idea, Mom. I just wanted to have a little chat with you and find out. more about Crystal’s childhood,” Henry said while massaging her calf.
Anna felt her heart soften up when she heard that and recalled how she and John used to raise Crystal together.
Because she was feeling a little emotional, Anna ended up telling him a lot about Crystal.
Henry listened patiently to everything she had to say. After dinner, it was already nine at night by the time he decided to head back.
He had just gotten into his car when he got a call from Crystal.
