Crystal’s One Night of Love novel Chapter 363

Chapter 363 You Have Never Kissed Before 

Crystal froze. 

She hurriedly logged into the campus website and found the picture of Henry kissing her on the front. 

page. 

My first kiss! 

It rattled her. 

After a prolonged stunned silence, she lifted the quilt and dashed out. He was still here even after I fell asleep! 

It was silent in the living room. 

Anna had returned from her grocery run and was busying herself in the kitchen when she heard the footsteps. “Breakfast is on the dining table, Crystal. Eat up and go to school.” 

Crystal stood at the kitchen entrance. 

She scratched her long, disheveled brown hair. “That guy last night isn’t my boyfriend, Madam Anna.” 

Anna clearly did not believe her. 

How did he come in if he wasn’t her boyfriend? He even played chess with John until one in the morning. 

Crystal’s explanation did not make any sense. 

She quickly washed up, then went back downstairs and had her breakfast. Anna sighed wistfully from behind her. “What a nice young man. I think he’s better than the fellow from the Sloan family.” 

Crystal had Madison find out where Henry worked. 

It was half past nine. 

Although Adroit Law Firm had only been in business for a year, it was large enough to occupy the sixth to twelfth floors of the twenty-two-story building. 

The receptionist was sweet and professional as she asked, “How can I help you, Miss?” 

Crystal bit her lip. “I’m here to see Mr. Henry Miller.” 

The receptionist smiled and dialed a number. “Hello, Jamie? There’s a lady here to see Mr. Miller. Is he available?” 

The voice on the other end responded. 

The receptionist glanced at Crystal and put down the phone. In a more pleasant tone, she said, “Are you Miss Winters? Mr. Miller is in. This way, please.” 

Crystal was a little suspicious. 

The receptionist led the way. 

There was only one office on the twelfth floor of the building and a small conference room.

Henry was standing before the blinds in his office, gazing quietly at the view below. “Miss Winters is on her way over, Mr. Miller,” Jamie announced with a smile behind him. 

Henry did not turn around. “Prepare a cup of Mandheling coffee and bring some snacks.” 

Jamie froze. It appears that Miss Winters is somebody very important to him. 

Without asking any further, Jamie tactfully took her leave. 

After she left, Henry closed the blinds, and the office became much dimmer. 

His expression was unfathomable. 

Seeing the twenty-year-old Crystal again was pleasant, but in his dreams, he carried all his memories with him. He knew that Crystal was in a coma in the hospital and that she was carrying their third child in her belly. 

He wanted to take Crystal home. He had to make Crystal his before Robert did. 

Just as Henry was deep in thought, the office door opened, and Jamie ushered Crystal in. “Here you are, Ms. Winters,” she said as she set down the coffee and the snacks. 

Then, she left and shut the heavy door gently behind her. 

Crystal had many questions before she arrived. She had come brimming with indignity, but she somehow. lost her nerve when she got into this office. Perhaps the lights were too dim, and the man was clad in a black and white suit that made him look so elegant. Also the way he stared at her with those dark eyes did. not help matters. 

Against her will, her knees buckled. 

Henry sat down first.. 

Although the young woman before him was his beloved wife and they had done the most intimate thing. he could not intimidate her now. He must take his time to win her over. 

He read the newspaper before him and asked nonchalantly, “Are you here because of our scandal?” 

Crystal’s cheeks flushed red. 

“What scandal? There’s nothing going on between us!” 

Henry looked up and chuckled. “Feisty. Just like Skyler.” 

Crystal frowned. 

Who’s Skyler? 

Henry gestured for her to sit down. His tone softened as he said, “Here, your favorite coffee. But as a girl. you should have more milk instead of coffee.” 

Crystal refused to sit. 

I’m not stupid. Despite looking concerned, he’s a bad man. He wouldn’t have snuck a kiss if he wasn’t. 

Her expression caused Henry to burst into laughter. His eyes twinkled. “You’re here to interrogate me,

aren’t you? Ask away.” 

Mustering her courage, Crystal put on a fierce look. “Why did you steal a kiss from me?” 

“Because I wanted to!” 

Crystal was rendered speechless. 

I can’t reason with him, and I’m not his equal. With a family like his, dealing with me is a trifling matter. Worse still, I might even implicate my own. 

Her eyes became slightly red. 

She turned away. “I was kind enough to lead the way, and you took advantage of me.” 

Henry stood 

Crystal grew a little nervous. She did not know what he was planning to do. 

Henry arrived behind her and leaned close to her ear. “How am I taking advantage of you by kissing you? Am I not good-looking enough, or am I not better than any other men?” 

Crystal tried to squirm away but he would not let her. 

He held her waist, preventing her from escaping. 

Henry, who was thirty-five years old, understood women well, especially Crystal. 

He leaned over, his hot breath on her ear. “Besides, I’m not what you think I am. A family like mine will never allow me to get involved in a scandal!” 

“What do you want?” Crystal stuttered. 

Henry smiled faintly. 

“I won’t clarify our relationship. In fact, I will confirm it!” 

Crystal blushed. “We don’t even know each other!” 

Henry knew that she somewhat liked him, or she would not have allowed him to approach her like that. However, she was currently fond of him only for his looks. 

Crystal had a soft spot for handsome men, but she had never admitted it. 

He let go of her. “Don’t we know each other now?” 

He gazed at her with a meaningful smile. Crystal felt hot all over. She did not know what had come over her. It took her a long time to remember why she came. “My heart belongs to somebody else. What you’re doing isn’t right.” 

She resists like a kitten. 

Henry thought she was adorable. “How thoughtful you are to me!” 

Crystal was in a panic. She could not do anything about him. Tears began welling up in her eyes.

Henry’s expression softened. 

Suddenly, she pushed him aside and ran out, biting her lip. 

Henry turned around, gently grabbed her wrist, and yanked her back. Then, he gently picked her up and placed her on his vast desk, positioning himself.in front of her in a suggestive manner. 

Shamelessly, Henry stroked her slender leg. “Didn’t Ltell you to stop wearing shorts last night?” 

His fingers seemed to crackle with electricity. It terrified Crystal. 

She was too embarrassed to cry for help, and she was so upset that she began to sob. 

“Don’t cry!” 

Henry held her head and forced her to look up. He studied her young, innocent face. 

Crystal’s lips trembled. Her nose was red. 

She regretted coming. 

I shouldn’t have come today. He was just waiting for me to take the bait. 

Henry leaned over and grazed her lips ever so slightly with his. The unfathomable sensation frightened her to death. 

“Would you like to experience what it feels like to be kissed? You’ve never kissed before, have you?” 

As Henry spoke, he repositioned himself and planted his lips against hers. He sought her tongue and entangled his with it. This version of Crystal has never fallen in love before. What an innocent little thing she is. 

So frightened that she forgot to resist, she merely stared at him. 

Henry, on the other hand, was much more engrossed than she was. 

He kissed her deeply until it was no longer enough to satiate him. He grabbed her and pressed her against him so she could feel his urgency. 

Crystal began to cry. 

She refused his advances. Her slender arms were wrapped around his neck, but she cried out in alarm, “Stop it!” 

Henry froze. 

With great difficulty, he tried to quell his raging passion. He was thinking about how Crystal, at this point in time, would never have imagined that he had done that to her countless times over the coming decade. and that what he had just done did not even scratch the surface. 

He patted her on the back and said gently, “All right, I’ll stop.” 

Crystal felt extremely aggrieved. 

With a start, she realized that she had taken the initiative to hug him. She snapped, “Clarify the rumor surrounding us.”

Henry chuckled lightly. 

He straightened up and smoothed the wrinkles of his shirt, looking like a scoundrel disguised as a gentleman. 

He returned to his desk, sat down, and dialed a number. “Take care of the matter all over the Internet, Jamie. Crystal is unhappy about it.” 

Crystal was stunned. What do you mean I’m unhappy about it? That sounds too ambiguous! 

Henry hung up and asked in a graceful manner, “Will that do?” 

Crystal mustered up her courage and said, “Y-You will not say a thing about what happened earlier.” 

Henry lowered his head and lit a cigarette. 

Then, he fixed his beady eyes on her and chuckled. “Are you afraid that Robert might get upset and not want you anymore?” 

Crystal pursed her lips. 

Suddenly, Henry put out his cigarette and said, “A proper relationship requires effort from both sides, 

Stal. If Robert cares about you, why won’t he take the initiative? Why does he leave you hanging? Are 

Love requires reciprocation. 

Crystal’s eyes grew red. 

Henry felt sorry for her. He dropped the subject. “I think it’s better to find a man who wants you instead of holding on to a love without a future.” 

A man who wants me? 

Crystal gazed warily at him. 

Henry did not avoid it. Instead, he returned her gaze with scorching intensity. He had an imposing temperament, and Crystal was no match for him. “I’m leaving,” she whispered as soon as she felt her resolve wavering. 

Henry was too quick for her. He held the doorknob. 

From his great height, he gazed down at the young woman. “You’re so meek that you won’t speak up for yourself when Robert mistreats you. How could you be with a wolf like him?” 

According to my estimation, Sloan Group is in decline. It’s only a matter of time before the Winters family falls prey to Robert’s scheme. 

Crystal pushed him aside. “It’s none of your concern.” 

Henry kept his gaze fixed on her. His voice grew gentler as he said, “I’ll treat you to lunch at my place this weekend. I have a Morning Dew piano there. Would you like to play it?” 

A Morning Dew piano? The one played by Ludweig? 

It was a great temptation for Crystal.

Henry saw the struggle on her face. He knew when to stop, so he flashed a faint smile. “It’s up to you.” 

She promised herself that she would not go.
