Chapter 2279
Mr. Davies smiled and said, "Mr. Henrick, it''s okay. I can''t sleep even if I go to bed early. Do you
want to eat supper?" It was his responsibility to take good care of Henrick. The Alwynn family had
helped him before, so he would feel at ease if he could look after Henrick well.
Henrick shook his head slightly. "I''m not hungry. Let''s go to rest."
Henrick went up to the third floor and saw that the lights in Alice''s house had been turned off. He
stood there and watched for a while before turning around to take a shower. When he came out of
the bathroom, he had donned light blue silk pajamas, which felt like faint water ripples when he
walked. He was veryfortable in them.
Heid on the bed slowly, picked up his mobile phone, and called his brother, who was in Country
M.
In the video, Keh was reading some documents in his study.
"What''s wrong, Ricky?" Keh couldn''t hide the fatigue on his face.
Henrick frowned and was a little worried. "Keh, have you been working too hardtely? Why
are you so haggard?"
"It''s okay. It''s almost settled. I''ll go to bed after I''m done speaking to you. What''s the matter?"
Keh asked in a hoarse voice.
"Oh!" Henrick''s face looked a little pale. "Keh, you''ve worked hard. The day before yesterday, I
did a stupid thing and took the initiative to admit that I was Allie''s boyfriend in front of her friends.
Now, people are searching for her on the Inte. Allie has always liked to keep a low profile. Can
you help me solve this problem?" Regarding the things on the Inte, he had asked his brother to
deal with them because there was nothing that Keh couldn''t do.
Keh touched his forehead slightly andined, "Can''t you think before you act? You''re a
public figure."
Henrick was instantly wronged. "Keh, Allie has already told me off. Wasn''t I too happy at that
time? I didn''t consider the consequences. It doesn''t matter to me. I came here for her. I was afraid
that Swallow would be hurt. You know how terrible those things are on the Inte."
"I got it. I''ll help you deal with itter." Keh leaned back against the chair and looked at his
younger brother in the video. He smiled and said, "Mom called me just now and said that Marlon
went to our house. Miss Klein is allowing the Alwynn family to be in contact with the children. This is
a good sign. You have to work hard!"
"Generally, girls don''t take the initiative to express their feelings. Even if they fall in love, they will be
very reserved. As a man, you should take the initiative and prove that you love her. You must make
her feel secure so that she can feel at ease and give herself to you, understand?"
"Wow!" Henrick was extremely surprised. He had never thought that such words woulde out of
his brother''s mouth.
"Keh, I feel that you are better than me. Are you in a rtionship too? To be honest, did you fall
in love with someone behind my back?" Henrick was curious about his brother''s life. Since his
brother went to an elite school, they had rarely met. He almost didn''t know if there were any friends
around Keh.

Keh''s eyes shed. "No!"
"Haha..." Henrick couldn''t believe it. "Keh, do you know what you look like when you lie?"
Keh became vignt and asked lightly, "What do I look like?"
Henrick said, "Keh, as long as you lie, your eyes will not stop blinking. You''ve inherited this trait
from Mom, so there''s nothing you can hide from me."
Keh''s eyes shed. He really didn''t pay attention to this. He knew that his mother had this
habit.
"How is Mom?" He changed the topic.
Henrick kicked the thin nket. It was too hot, even hotter than in River City, and he always felt very
ufortable.
Seeing his childish actions, Keh frowned slightly and did not say anything.
"Keh, Mom and Dad are both doing well. Why don''t you ask Dad yourself?"
Keh replied, "As long as Mom is well, Dad will be doing better than Mom."
Henrick was speechless. What kind of strange exnation was that?
"Keh, I won''t dy your rest. Remember to help me deal with this matterter. I''m afraid that
someone will deliberately start trouble." He had experienced this sort of thing many times before,
and he usually would have ignored it in the past. However, now that the person they were searching
for was Alice, he had to pay attention to it.
The left side of Keh''s handsome face was hidden in the shadows, which made his profile
appear much deeper.
"Yes! I will handle it. You should rest early too."
"Thank you, Keh!" Henrick happily hung up the phone.
Although he had slept on the ne, he was still sleepy. Thinking of Alice''s attitude toward him, he
smiled happily and said, "Allie, let''s meet in our dreams."
Then, heid down and fell asleep with the light yellow bear beside him.
That night, Henrick really dreamed of Alice.
It was their first time together when they were in the hotel, when he held Alice and kissed her, and
the wonderful feeling made him experience it in his dream again.
Even after that night, the scene that he did not remember appeared in front of him before the end of
his dream. Only then did he realize how much of a jerk he was that night.
The things that had been forgotten in the depths of his memory flooded into his mind as soon as he
woke up.
It turned out that he had wanted her many times that night, and he had also injured her badly.
When he woke up from his dream, he suddenly sat up. There was already a ray of sunlight
streaming into the room.
There seemed to be something falling from the corner of his eyes, with a faint chill. He raised his
hand and gently wiped it. It turned out to be tears, and he felt that his head was spinning.
Henrick clearly realized that he was sick.
The food stall where he ate the night before was very hot. His throat was very ufortable and
his forehead was a little hot, but what made him even more ufortable was his guilt towards
Alice.
If he hadn''t been framed by Alma, he wouldn''t have hurt Alice so thoroughly. At that moment, he
hated Alma and hated himself for hurting Alice so much without him realizing.
Henrick was ill. Juliet came up and asked him to go downstairs for breakfast. After calling out to her
father a few times, he nced at her in a daze.
"Dad, what''s wrong with you? Are you sick?" Juliet looked at her father''s dry lips and saw that he
could barely even open his eyes.
"Juliet." Henrick wanted to raise his hand to touch his daughter, but he didn''t have the strength to do
so.
Juliet pulled her father''s hand, which was very hot. She was shocked and burst into tears. "Dad, are
you feeling very sick? Hold on, I''ll get Mom to call the doctor over."
Juliet ran out as she spoke.
Henrick heard his daughter''s voice drift away in a daze, but he didn''t even have the strength to
open his eyes. He became dizzy as soon as he got sick, but he would be fine after resting for two or
three days.
"Mom, Mom..."
As soon as Alice went downstairs, she heard her daughter''s cry. She thought about how Juliet had
sent breakfast to Henrick and wondered why she hade back crying.
"What''s wrong, Juliet?"
Juliet copsed in her mother''s arms.
"Boohoo... Mom, Dad is sick. His whole body is hot. He can''t get up."
