The instant Crystal swung her gaze over, Madison was gripped by the urge to make a break for it.
Gosh, how would I have known Henry would suddenly show up when he has never had much regard for Zachary?
Out of guilt, she arranged for Crystal to be seated far away from Henry as much as possible.
Unfortunately, Henry simply had to stir up trouble.
No sooner had Crystal shrugged her jacket off and taken her seat than the man strolled over and jerked his chin up a fraction.
At once, the people around her tactfully moved away.
Following that, Henry openly sat down right beside her.
About everyone in the private room knew that the two of them had dated in the past. As such, they all kept silent.
Henry remained as relaxed as ever.
Reclining against the couch, he nonchalantly asked Crystal, “How have you been these days?”
With her eyes pinned on the LCD screen, Crystal tried to answer in a casual manner so she would not appear too petty and make him misunderstand that she could not forget him.
“Pretty good.”
In response, Henry chuckled lowly.
“I’m glad to hear that. Then, it’s considered a wise decision for us to break up,” he remarked,
Crystal said nothing to that.
In truth, she still had feelings toward him upon seeing him again.
She did not want to speak to him too much, afraid he would notice something as his eyes were too sharp.
Subsequently, everyone in the same circle gathered together boisterously,
Henry joined in the fun while Crystal merely sat there and scrolled through her phone. She vaguely heard them playing truth or dare, during which a girl boldly confessed to the man.
It went without saying that the girl ended up rejected.
Crystal felt rather bored. The fact that she was seated next to Henry, in particular, made her feel

uneasy.
Just as she was about to excuse herself to the restroom, a ringtone started blaring in the private
room.
It was Zachary’s phone, and the caller was none other than Clementine.
His phone rang again and again until he answered the call.
Considering the occasion then, Madison had no choice but to leash her temper.
When Crystal saw that the latter still wanted to stay married to Zachary, she heaved a muted sigh and asked Madison to accompany her to the restroom.
The two of them washed their hands side by side.
After much contemplation, Crystal ventured softly. “They’ve been keeping in touch?”
Madison’s eyes were red–rimmed.
Taking out a long and slender light cigarette from her bag, she lit it with a shaky hand.
She took a deep breath before turning to Crystal.
“Zachary is rotten to the core. He bought a condominium and kept Clementine there. I checked. the bank statements, and he’s spending two to three million on that b*tch every month.”
Hearing that, words cluded Crystal.
Conversely, Madison snickered indifferently.
“I suppose I’ve reached a tacit understanding with him. If I turn a blind eye to him, our relationship can still be quite amicable. He’s also being more generous with me now. Don’t follow in my footsteps, Crystal. You deserve a man who loves you.”
Crystal gently patted her on the shoulder. “No matter what, come to me if you need anything.”
“I definitely will.”
Smiling, Madison bumped her fist against Crystal’s shoulder.
Right then, Zachary strode over with his phone in hand, the look on his face unnatural.
Madison sniggered coldly. “You want to go and keep that woman company even on such a day as our wedding anniversary, Zachary? Is she really that precious? You’ve probably never seen how she looked when she spread her legs and seduced Robert.”
Zachary merely stared at Madison fixedly.
Indeed, she’s beautiful. Regretfully, she’s too delicate. We’ve been married for two years, but she’s adamant

about not having a child for fear of losing her figure. Clementine, however, is different. She’s willing to give birth to a child for me. In fact, she’s now pregnant and loves to eat sour things. As such, it must be a boy!
For that

Nonetheless, he did not dare speak the truth and made up an excuse instead. “Something came up at the office. I’ll be back in no time.”
Needless to say, Madison did not believe such an excuse.
Alas, she could not make him stay. At his unwillingness to remain by her side despite it being their wedding anniversary, her disappointment in him reached an all–time high.
She gazed at him quietly.
In the end, she queried. “Must you really go. Zachary?”
Feeling a touch guilty. Zachary grunted in affirmation.
All of a sudden, Madison laughed and flipped her long hair lightly. “Okay, go ahead, then.”
Zachary instantly rushed into the elevator as though the hounds of hell were nipping at his heels.
“Do you want to have a divorce?” Crystal questioned in a murmur.
With her eyes red–rimmed, Madison shook her head.
Madison gently took Crystal’s hand away. A hint of resolution was etched on her beautiful yet pale face. “J’know exactly what I’m doing, Crystal. Charles likes me. He pursued me for a long time during university,”
“But a relationship between you both is no longer possible.”
“I know. But I can obtain pleasure from him.”
In no time, Charles arrived. Madison nestled in his arms, looking as pretty as a picture.
Even a fool would be able to see that Madison and Zachary’s marriage had reached its end.
Crystal did not want to stay any longer. Returning to her seat with her body slightly bent, shet retrieved her things and made to leave.
Crystal was still feeling sad for Madison, so her voice was slightly choked. “I want to go home
