Chapter 2249


    Alice was speechless.


    Seeing Henrick turn around, she realized that her heart was still beating violently. Alice covered her


    chest. Was her heart beating for Henrick?


    There seemed to be a little deer in her heart that was running throughout her entire chest.


    It was a very familiar feeling. Every time when she was a child, she would happily watch the movie


    that Henrick performed in. When she saw him, she would blush and her heart would race like this.


    That was the feeling of being moved. She was tempted even on the screen, not to mention meeting


    him in person.


    Alice hated herself for being like this very much, but she couldn''t help liking him.


    However, she was the shy one, so what was he running for?


    Did he still think he was a pure boy?


    How could Henrick have imagined that he would run into Alice in the daytime when he was only


    wearing a bath towel?


    Alice took a look at the room. It was decorated in white, and the bed was covered with light gray


    bed sheets. Inside the room, there was Henrick''s unique smell.


    Thinking of the scene moments ago, she blushed even more.


    It seemed that the children were not there. Aubri must have taken them out to y.


    Alice quickly walked out and took out her mobile phone to call her daughter.


    The phone was soon connected.


    "Juliet, where did you all go?" Alice asked.


    "Mom, Marlon and I are at Miane''s house. Grandma and Miane''s grandmother went to the


    supermarket to buy things."


    Alice let out a sigh of relief. Because of Henrick''s arrival, she had be extremely nervous and


    sensitive.


    "Okay, you guys have fun." Alice hung up the phone and turned to go downstairs.


    At that moment, Henrick, who had changed his clothes, walked out of the room.


    A white silk shirt and a pair of ck trousers wrapped around his slender, elegant body. His


    handsome facial features, along with a faint smile, were gentle and perfect. Seeing him, Alice was


    stunned for a moment.


    When the hot wind hit her, her face was as hot as the sun in June. She came back to her senses


    and turned to go downstairs.


    Seeing that Alice was about to go downstairs, he quickly shouted, "Allie."


    Alice frowned slightly, but she still stopped and looked sideways at him.


    When he called her ''Allie'', her heart couldn''t help trembling.


    Alice had been thinking about it for the whole night. The way Henrick chased after her should be for


    the sake of the children. Since it was for their sake, he should not flirt with her and make her heart


    rekindle her emotions.


    This b*stard was still as bad as ever!


    Henrick smiled and said, "Allie, are you looking for the children? Juliet said they were going to her


    best friend''s house. They left after ying for a while at noon."


    Alice looked at him coldly and said in an icy voice, "I already know."


    She also med herself for being impulsive. She couldn''t see the children at home, so she thought


    that they had been abducted by Keh. Thus, she rushed over without stopping.


    Henrick put one hand in his pocket and walked towards her. His tall and straight body left a shadow


    in front of her.


    She suddenly raised her eyes and looked at him warily with a pair of eyes as clear as spring water.


    The man she had paid attention to and loved for more than ten years had finally grown into the man


    she had imagined him to grow into. He was so charming that she was addicted to him at a nce.


    "Alice, let''s go to the first floor and talk." Henrick knew that she was ufortable and wary, so he


    didn''t dare to say anything in his room.


    Alice looked at him with aplicated look in her eyes. His voice was as pleasant as ever.


    It was very hot. After taking a bath, he still had a faint cold aura on him, which was very charming.


    She was lost in her thoughts again.


    It wasn''t until Henrick approached her again that she panicked and moved her feet.


    "I... I have nothing to talk to you about." After saying that, Alice ran down.


    Henrick watched her run downstairs. For the sake of her safety, he didn''t chase after her. His dark


    eyes rolled slightly, and a mischievous smirk appeared on his face.


    She had alreadye here, and he had plenty of time tomunicate with Allie in the future.


    The first step of the n was to let Allie adapt to his existence.


    Henrickughed evilly before he walked down the stairs slowly.


    Alice took a deep breath and ran home. Seeing that Henrick did not chase after her, she heaved a


    sigh of relief, but at the same time, she felt very disappointed.


    She finally understood; not to mention other people''s hearts, but her own emotions were so


    complicated that she could not see through herself.


    She wanted to hide, but she tried her best to get close to him.


    She went to the bathroom to wash her face. It was so hot that she was upset.


    After changing into a home dress, Alice sat on the balcony on the second floor, feeling bored. She


    took out her mobile phone, trying to distract herself.


    She clicked on her phone and saw a piece of news.


    It stated, "Actress, Alma Parma and Mr. Jefferson had a one-night stand in a hotel."


    Alice''s interest was piqued and she clicked on the article to take a look. There were photos and


    evidence; everyone was shocked.


    Ever since Henrick''s return, Alma had tried to use her rtionship with him to create news about


    them. However, Henrick was very good at controlling the media and the news was not able to


    spread out.


    Now that Henrick wasn''t around, it had nothing to do with him. They didn''t have to worry about him


    anymore.


    Where there were people, there was trouble?


    Alice didn''t see what othersmented about Alma.


    She just couldn''t figure it out. Alma obviously loved Henrick very much, but why did she do that?


    Did Henricke to look for Alice because he had been dumped?


    However, there was something wrong with Alma. She didn''t seem to be someone who would just


    give up on Henrick.


    Alma desperately wanted to stay by Henrick''s side. Wasn''t she trying to be his wife?


    Or did Henrick find out that Alma had cheated on him?


    Alice started to have all kinds of ideas.


    At the same time, in River City, Kylie, Lane, and Brenden had alsopleted the final handover


    work.


    Alice, who was lost in her own thoughts, received a message from Kylie.


    Kylie texted, "Alice, we will go back to Lemmon City tomorrow."


    Alice looked down and replied, "Kylie, you''ve worked hard. I''ll book a restaurant and invite you to


    dinner."


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Kylie texted back happily, "Okay, Alice."


    Alice replied, "I''ll send you a message after I settle things tomorrow."


    Kylie wrote, "Okay, Alice. By the way, I have something to tell you. A few days ago, I saw that Mr.


    Henrick and Alma had a quarrel, and Alma fainted in the corridor of the hotel."


    There was also the news from that day. It was said that Alma had hooked up with Mr. Jefferson


    again. Her agent and assistant seemed to have done something and were arrested. Alma''s contract


    had also been terminated by Mirth Company.


    That news was undoubtedly shocking to Alice.


    She couldn''t help ncing at the vi next door, but she didn''t see Henrick.


    Therefore, her guess was right. There was really a problem between the two of them.


    All of a sudden, she felt a sense of gloating in her heart. "I can''t believe there''s a day when


    Henrick''s going to be cuckolded."


    She remembered that night when he angrily questioned her about who she was. She had been so


    heartbroken that she wanted to die.
