Crystal’s One Night of Love novel Chapter 195

Chapter 195 I Miss You So Much 

Someone came out of the men’s restroom as Crystal and Pete left. 

It was none other than Henry. 

Staring at the water in the sink, he felt his heart wrench in pain. 

Did she get so drunk just because of a failed project? She has never acted like this… Is it because she doesn’t want to rely on others after leaving me? 

Henry fished out his phone and made a call to Colton. 

“Is this Mr. Thatcher? I’m Henry Miller. I saw you earlier… Why don’t we meet?” 

Half an hour later, Colton showed up in another private room. 

In fact, he knew about Henry and Crystal’s relationship. That was why he had been rather polite thought the project fell through. 

Shortly after he sat down, Henry got straight to the point. 

“Regarding Crystal’s project, can you do me a favor and accept it?” 

Colton held onto his wine glass, feeling rather amused. 

He laughed. “Henry, I thought you’re always cool-headed? What is it? Could it be that you can’t move on and wants to help her now? Since you’ve asked, then I’ll be honest with you too. I have pretty high hopes. for Miss Winters. She has a good attitude and produces good work. But I can’t say the same for Mr. Zelcest’s son. He’s too pompous. I heard that he often holds parties at home. He must have a messy life.” 

Finishing his words, he urged Henry to have a drink.. 

The latter had some white wine. 

After downing the drink, Henry smiled. “Pete is young and loves seeking fun, but he’s great at cars. He’s the champion of the F4 double-season racing. He might not be as capable when it comes to other things, but I’m sure he’ll do well in this aspect. Besides, I know that the music center caters to high-end customers. It’ll be easy to secure deals on above-average cars.” 

Colton was still a little hesitant. 

A faint smile curved Henry’s lips. “Tell you what, Mr. Thatcher. Go ahead and get involved with that project. I’ll bear all losses if there are any. Also, I’ll deal with your company’s legal affairs without any fees.” 

Those words gave Colton ample reassurance. 

He poured Henry more wine and teased, “All right, I’m only doing it because of you, Henry. But then. again, you sure are a sentimental man, aren’t you? I didn’t know the legal Grim Reaper would be so infatuated with a woman. This is completely at odds with your public persona, huh?” 

Henry only let out a bitter smile. 

Like before, he showed Colton respect and downed the drink in one swift movement. 

He was seemingly lost in thought as he stared intently at the empty wine glass. “I made her angry… Oh yes, Mr. Thatcher, please don’t tell her anything about this.” 

Colton smiled and urged Henry to continue drinking. 

It had been long since Henry drank so much. Feeling a little unwell, he leaned into the backseat of his car after leaving the place, 

“Where are you going, Mr. Miller?” the driver asked softly. 

A faint blush spread across Henry’s face while he kept his eyes shut. After pondering for a moment, he answered, “To the condominium.” 

About half an hour later, the car arrived at its destination. 

Henry opened the car door and hopped off. With his head slightly tilted, he gazed at the unit on the top 

floor. 

For the past six months, he had been staying in another mansion. He could not muster the courage to visit that condominium as he could hardly fall asleep there. Even if he could, he would dream of how upset Crystal looked. 

He headed upstairs and opened the door. 

The interior remained the same, but everything else had changed. 

At this moment, the house was cold and deserted. The piano that was still in its original spot had lost its 

owner.
