Chapter 38 Henry's Coming Back Soon ( 1 ) Robert's mood dropped when he had those thoughts . +5 Bonus He was leaning against the head of the bed and enjoying the care his fiancee was showering him in by feeding him food and water . She didn't act like the pampered daughter from a wealthy household at all . Melora was an attractive woman , and Robert was not a man who would starve himself . After he instructed his subordinates to leave , he immediately trapped his fiancee under his body . The woman blushed and pointed at his chest with her slender fingers as she gasped sensually , " Get up . You're injured ! " However , seeing the pure male aggression in his deep - set eyes made her shudder . The temperature in the ward grew so hot it was boiling . Being the passionate lover that Robert was , he only let Melora go after two hours . After they were done doing the deed , Melora nestled in his arms shyly and asked lovingly , " Did something happen to you today ? " The man drawled , " Not at all . I missed you , is all ." Hearing that , Melora kissed him and snuggled closer . She gently informed him , " Henry will be home in two days . Come and have a meal with us ! There are several company projects that my brother oversees . I think a few of them would be suitable for you . You have to perform your best then . " Robert didn't say anything as his gaze became dimmer . As much as Melora was reluctant to leave him , she knew that he didn't like it when she was clingy . Because of that , she left after staying only for half the day . When she got into the black RV , she couldn't help but give Henry a call . Henry had just turned on his phone after having it off because of an important meeting he had today . " Melora ? " He greeted her when he picked up the call . " Is something the matter ? " Melora's eyes were still glazed from the intimate session she had with Robert . She drew circles with her elegant fingers as she softly murmured , " Henry , you have to help me . " Henry loosened his necktie as he asked , " What's the matter ? Did someone do something to you ? " The woman whined , " It's Robert ! He got hurt ! I asked him who did it , but he refused to tell me . " Henry didn't say anything when he heard Robert's name . Melora then muttered under her breath , " So many things happened today ! I met Seth today , Henry . He told me that Crystal's father took his own life in jail . Poor thing ." Henry immediately stopped tugging on his necktie , He asked again , " What ? " Melora didn't suspect anything and repeated , " I'm talking about Seth's girlfriend ! Her father was in prison 1/2 Chapter 38 Henry's Coming Back Soon ( 1 ) for an economic offense , remember ? He ended his life … I pity them … " +5 Bonus Henry didn't give a response . He only told Melora after a while that he had something to do and needed to hang up . She panicked and she murmured , " But Henry , I'm not done talking ! " " We will talk next time . " Henry called Crystal several times , but none of his calls got through because her phone was off . He eventually decided to call Jake instead . Jake explained what happened before he chuckled . " Henry , this is the perfect time for the hero to save the princess . " Henry also let out a laugh , albeit a bitter one . " Are you seriously making fun of me now ? " After hanging up the phone , he immediately had his secretary book a flight for that evening . The secretary was surprised by his request . " Mr. Miller , you have to attend a trial tomorrow morning . " Atrial ! Henry suddenly came back to his senses . I can't believe I forgot about it ! The trial was about a case that he had been busy with for a month . As he would get the results of the trial tomorrow , he wouldn't be able to get away no matter what . After carefully considering it , he wrote his secretary , Jamie , a note . " Please make a trip to Barnwood and look for Miss Winters tomorrow morning . This is her address and phone number . Tell her to give me a call ! " Jamie , who had seen Crystal before , smiled and commented , " Miss Winters is absolutely gorgeous ! " One glance from Henry was all it took for Jamie to shut up . After the secretary left , Henry continued to work on the information he needed for the trial the next morning . He would call Crystal every one or two hours . However , he couldn't get through to her even until late at night . In the wee hours of the morning , he booked a flight scheduled for the next afternoon .
