Chapter 16 Inviting Her for a Drink at Night After work , Henry declined a few invitations and drove to the restaurant . +25 Bonus It was 8.00PM , and business was booming at the restaurant . Crystal sat in front of the piano and started playing . She was wearing an ash - gray dress today . Her shoulders were slightly exposed , and her long , brown hair fell smoothly at her waist . She looked extremely beautiful and romantic . Henry watched her through the glass for about 10 minutes , then got out of the car . He opened the door and walked in . Following that , he ordered some food and didn't mind what he was eating as he leaned back leisurely , listening to Crystal's playing . Henry noticed that several gentlemen would try to talk to Crystal at times , and it seemed like they were also attracted to Crystal . Meanwhile , Crystal always declined them politely . During the intermission , Crystal received a name card . The name card read ' Justice Law Firm , Henry Miller , Lawyer '. Stunned , Crystal angled her body and caught sight of Henry . He was sitting in a corner while holding a glass of aperitif in his hand . He was very nice - looking , and even his simple actions were a sight to behold . Crystal didn't want to talk to him , but she was even more scared of offending him . She eventually walked over to the man . " Mr. Miller . " Henry nodded slightly and gestured for her to sit . Crystal had just taken a seat when Henry noticed a new pinprick on the back of her hand . He guessed that it must be because she had gotten soaked in the rain last night . " Have you eaten , Miss Winters ? Let's dine together . " Henry behaved sensibly , completely void of the ruthless act he had put on when he tossed the name card earlier . Crystal placed the name card on the table and said in a slightly reserved tone , " There's a rule in the restaurant that employees cannot dine with customers during their shifts ." Henry couldn't be bothered to look at the name pard . He then asked her straightforwardly , " What about after work ? Do you have time to get a drink at my place ?

" III 1/2 Chapter 16 Inviting Her for a Drink at Night His intentions were clear now . +25 Bonus If she went on a date with him , she could be quickly saved from her current plight , and she would no longer have to work so hard for money . After all , it was just a game between men and women . Henry thought that since Crystal had been with Robert before , she wouldn't mind being with someone else . Moreover , when they hugged twice in the past , Crystal seemed quite willing as well . However , Crystal didn't even consider it . She didn't know why Henry would suddenly feel like bothering her . She knew her situation very well , so she tried to talk least offensively , saying , " Mr. Miller , I'm very grateful for your help with my father's case . I'll do my best to repay your kindness in the future ." Henry was surprised , for he understood what she meant - she didn't want to sleep with him . Money couldn't win Crystal over ! Similarly , Henry wasn't quite insistent on Crystal . He was just slightly charmed when he watched her play the piano , and he also had this ugly side of him that longed for things he never could conquer . Henry put away his name card . He was very gentlemanly , and he didn't make a fuss out of it . Crystal thanked him quietly , her posture as humble as could be . Amidst the awkward atmosphere , Seth came over with a girl of about 17 years of age . " Henry ! " Seth called out in a friendly manner . There wasn't the slightest hint of a competitive aura between two rivaling males in his demeanor . Henry made a gesture , and only then did Seth dare to sit down . As soon as he took his seat , he introduced his sister to Crystal , saying , " This is my sister , Sophia Murray . She's very talented in music , but she needs a proper piano teacher . Crystal , why don't you take her in as your student ? " Those words caused Crystal embarrassment . Meanwhile , Henry didn't care about Seth's tricks . He took out 300 bucks from his wallet , then placed it on the table . " Since you're busy , Miss Winters , I shan't bother you any longer . " Out of courtesy , Crystal saw him off at the entrance of the restaurant . Henry didn't linger . He got into the car , nodded at her , then drove away . He carried himself so elegantly that it didn't seem like he was looking for someone to spend the night with .
