Chapter 44 Do You Like It ? Crystal hugged Henry's neck and kissed him , either out of gratitude or due to his innate charm . +5 Bonus His intense gaze caused her body to flush with heat , and she mustered her courage to ask , " Do you want to keep going ? " Suddenly , he leaned in . As Henry advanced , Crystal retreated until she was forced to lie back and barely propped herself up with her hands . She didn't dare to look at him and lowered her gaze , her long eyelashes casting delicate shadows under the lights . Henry took her hand and placed it on his handsome face , inviting her to feel it . " Miss Winters , do you like it ? " he asked . Crystal widened her eyes and blushed uncontrollably . Henry nudged her nose with his own and confidently said , " When we're together , it's hard to tell who's taking advantage of whom . You seem pretty eager if you ask me . " " It's not true ! I just want to go to sleep ," she muttered as she snuggled under the covers . Henry looked utterly disappointed . Truth was , he had been busy for several days and was already very tired . It was just that he was stirred by the sight of Crystal in a black shirt when he came in . However , he didn't feel like continuing anymore after the interruption . With that , he packed up the medical kit and joined her in bed . As he wasn't used to having someone else in his bed , he simply dragged her into his embrace and intertwined their hands . Crystal was trapped in his arms and didn't dare to move at all . She initially thought that she wouldn't be able to fall asleep . However , with the steady sound of his heartbeat , she quickly drifted off . That night , she had the best sleep she had had in recent days . When Crystal woke up , it was already 8.00AM , She sat up abruptly and noticed that Henry had already gotten up . He stood by the bed as he tied his necktie , exuding a mature and handsome look in his deep blue shirt and gray trousers . Seeing that she was awake , he commented , " I'm going out later . You can go home and pack your stuff during the day . I'll come to pick you up in the evening ." " Isn't it better for me to come over when you need me ? " she asked softly . Henry smiled faintly . " It's more convenient to stay here . " 1/2 Chapter 44 Do You Like It ? +5 Bonus Considering his busy work schedule , it would have been a hassle for him to go out and pick her up every time he felt like seeing her . Crystal didn't object any further . At this moment , faint sounds of someone doing the chores and the aroma of food drifted in from outside . She was a little surprised . As Henry looked at her expression , he explained , " It's Marie . She comes over every morning for four hours to prepare breakfast and clean up . It won't affect our daily life ." Crystal nodded . Then , she got out of bed to help him with his tie . Her fingers were dexterous as she tied the tie beautifully . Henry couldn't help but ask , " Did you always help Robert with his tie ? " At that , her heart stung for a moment . It wasn't Robert . She often helped her dad with his tie and got the practice in . On the other hand , Robert didn't like her touching him and he always kept his distance . " Henry , can we not talk about him in the future ? " Crystal softly protested . Without saying anything else , he pointed to the paper bag on the bedside table . " Jamie sent this over early in the morning . There's a set of undergarments in there along with the clothes . Try them on . " Crystal felt a blush creeping up her cheeks as she refrained from pondering what Jamie might be thinking . Seeing her reaction , Henry lightly pinched her cheek and murmured , " Are you feeling shy again ? When it comes to the matters of the heart , nobody's going to judge ." After he finished speaking , he walked out of the bedroom . With a blush on her face , Crystal took the clothes and made her way to the bathroom to change . To her surprise , every piece of clothing , including undergarments , fit her perfectly . The thought that Henry had provided the accurate sizes made her even more embarrassed . Meanwhile , in the spacious dining room , Henry sipped coffee while reading the financial morning news . In addition to his law firm , he had other business ventures , most of which were managed by professional teams and did not require much of his attention . Just then , Crystal came out of the bedroom . He looked up at her for a while before complimenting , " They look pretty good on you . "
