Crystal's One Night of Love

Chapter 100

Chapter 100 What A Loving Couple

That was the first time Robert saw such a scene.

He froze as he stared at the woman that used to be his, kissing a man eagerly in the kitchen. If there were no guests at the apartment, he was sure they would already be having sex.

Despite feeling an ache in his heart, Robert smiled and said, “Henry, you and Crystal are such a loving couple! I came to get some water.”

He took two bottles of water from the fridge and gently shook them to show the couple.

Awkwardness filled the air in the kitchen.

Henry was shameless. The worries he had were now gone.

He helped Crystal down from the counter before straightening his clothes in front of Robert. He especially smoothened the area below his belt and around his pants zip. His lips curved into an apologetic grin before saying, “Robert, I’ll take a shower. Make yourself at home.”

With that, he left them alone in the kitchen.

Crystal knew he did it on purpose.

After Henry left, Crystal could not be bothered to talk to Robert. She quietly took ingredients. from the fridge to prepare supper.

However, Robert grabbed the fridge door, bent down, and leaned close to stare into her eyes.

Crystal instinctively took a step back.

Robert sneered, “Crystal, you don’t need to be so scared of me! We still need to get along as a family in the future. From what I’ve seen, he seems to be quite interested in you.”

He slammed the fridge shut before leaving the kitchen.

He must be in a bad mood lately. That’s why he’s using me to vent his anger. How unbelievable.

I should let Henry know that I don’t want to see Robert. Just as she was lost in her thoughts, Henry re- entered the kitchen. He wrapped his arms around her waist and hugged her from behind.

“What did you make?”

Crystal placed her hands on top of his, wanting to push him away.

However, he was adamant about hugging her and even took the opportunity to cop a feel.

Crystal felt her cheeks heat up from embarrassment as she answered, “I made pasta and baked some foie gras for them.”

Henry kissed the sensitive area at the back of her ear before he asked, “What about me?”

Crystal turned to lean against his shoulder. “You have a bad stomach, so I baked you and made a fruit salad.”

Henry stared at her for a moment before he pecked her lips.

At that moment, Crystal felt happy and blessed.

As she was born into a middle-class family, she had no grand ambitions since she was young. All she wanted was a decent job and a happy family.

She knew she should not have thoughts about it, but she liked living with Henry.

Melora kept singing praises while they ate supper.

Not only did she finish her food, but she also stole Henry’s salad. Her cheeks were stuffed with food, making her speech incoherent as she said, “Crystal, I’ll come again next time.”

Crystal grinned.

With the relationship she and Henry had, she was in no position to stop Melora from coming.

On the other hand, Henry looked at his sister and scolded, “Who would want to marry you if you gain weight from eating like this every day?”

Melora leaned on Robert’s shoulder and acted cute. “I have Robert.”

Robert could not help but glance at Crystal.

However, she averted his gaze.

She did not think the couple before her was an eyesore, nor was she afraid to look at them. She just thought there was no need to watch them act lovey-dovey.

Henry seemed not to notice the awkward atmosphere. He leaned against the couch and grabbed Crystal’s hand before he started playing with her fingers absentmindedly. A smile tugged at his lips as he continued to talk about stocks and the future and gave some suggestions to Robert.

Crystal was impressed. He was able to do what she couldn’t.

As time passed, Robert started getting antsy and wanted to leave.

Henry volunteered to see Robert and Melora off downstairs. Before he left, he said to Crystal, “Let’s do the cleaning tomorrow. You should go and take a shower. I’ll be back soon.”

Meanwhile, Robert was speed-walking down the hall. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Henry tucked his hands into his pockets and stared at Robert’s retreating figure as a satisfied grin made its way to his lips.
