Gluey Love Between Us
Chapter 2185

Suddenly, when she saw Henrick not far away, Alice's body stiffened slightly. She lowered her eyes slightly and nodded at him. Since they had met previously, it was a greeting.

He just glanced at her indifferently and stood still.

She walked past him without looking sideways.

"Alice."

His voice was as cold as the winter rain, which made people feel inexplicably cold.

She, who was full of confidence, suddenly stopped and the smile on her face froze. She glanced behind her.

She had never thought that he would take the initiative to talk to her.

She tried her best to raise the corners of her mouth and turned to look at Henrick. Just as she turned around, she saw that his eyes were as deep as the sea, and there were red blood streaks in them. It seemed that he had not had a good rest. As for her, she was calm and expressionless, and there was a smile on her lips.

"What's the matter, Mr. Alwynn?" She asked with a smile.

Henrick instructed, "Come with me to the office."

Her expression changed subtly. She bit her lower lip and followed him into the office.

His office was on the first floor.

However, her office was on the other side.

The office was very in line with his temperament. It was a simple room decorated in gray, with paintings on the wall. She could tell that they were done by Gia.

She picked up a few pictures of a child playing and found that Henrick was actually the child in them. There were also some high-quality building blocks in the rest area not far away.

Seeing this, Alice's expression became even more subtle.

She had loved such an immature man for many years.

"Mr. Alwynn, what can I do for you?" She stood far away from him.

Henrick was dressed very casually in a white sweater, straight, black pants, and white shoes. He looked like a college student who had just graduated from school, handsome and charming.

He sneered. "You don't know me?"

She felt that she had already trained her heart to perfection. At this time, she could still laugh in front of him.

"Isn't that what you always wanted, Mr. Alwynn?"

He was speechless.

It was indeed what he wanted, but why was he so uncomfortable in his heart?

He replied, "I didn't know it was you seven years ago."

It was fine if he didn't say that, but as soon as he did, she felt very uncomfortable and stood still.

So, was he going to apologize to her?

However, in the next moment, her heart ached so much that she couldn't breathe.

"However, you planned it back then. You didn't forget about it, did you?" He looked straight at her. There was no smile on her pale face, only endless pain.

He laughed in his heart. He was the one who had been hurt that year. Why did she pretend to fall into the abyss now?

Shouldn't she apologize?

"So, in your heart, you didn't ask me why I appeared in your room. Do you think I was the one who set you up?" When Alice asked this question, she didn't dare to look into Henrick's eyes. She didn't dare to look at him because she was afraid that if she guessed correctly, she would feel more distressed in the future.

He was stunned. Indeed, what happened that year had happened very suddenly. At that time, he was only 18 years old. He was still young and did not want to have anything to do with anyone.

He was very flustered and scared. He had never mentioned it to anyone, nor had he investigated it afterwards.

The seven years had passed so peacefully. Every night, he would still recall that night. Every time he thought about it, he became more angry.

He was angry that he had been set up.

He wanted his first time to be with someone he loved, and he wanted her first time to be with him too.

However, that was not the case. He had never been in a relationship in the past few years.

His expectations for love stopped at that night seven years ago.

"Haha..." Alice looked at him with a sneer. Her eyes were full of tears, but her smile was very bright. "Henrick, I thought that you would become more mature in the past seven years. I didn't expect you to be as childish as before. At my age, I didn't have such dirty thoughts. I admit that I really liked to pester you all those years."

"However, I have my own principles. I would never ask the person I like to do what he doesn't want to do. I didn't plot against you that night."

"I was too stupid when I found out that you were back. I knew it was your birthday, so I ran over without stopping and wanted to celebrate your birthday..." In fact, that night, she wanted to confess her love. Unfortunately, because she missed the flight, it was already 12 o'clock in the morning when she arrived in River City.

She didn't make it to Henrick's banquet.

Thus, she was very sad that night.

That was because they were all adults and could fall in love. She could confess her love to the person she liked. That day was the most exciting day in her life. Thinking that she had to confess her love boldly, she was moved by herself in the end.

Since she missed it, she had to go to the hotel. She was very concerned along the way.

However, when she reached the entrance of the hotel, she suddenly saw Henrick. Her eyes lit up, and she felt that God was still kind to her.

He was being helped into an elevator by a girl, and she followed them excitedly...

After that, when she was looking for Henrick, she saw him in the presidential suite on the top floor. He was drunk and his face was red, unlike normal drunks. She looked around and found that the girl who had helped him up was no longer there.

She called his name a few times excitedly...

Thinking of this, he closed his eyes in pain.

When he opened his eyes again, his world was clear again.

"Henrick, seven years ago, I warned myself that I wouldn't show up in front of you, pester you, and I wouldn't like you anymore. However, this job was an accident. I will go back after I complete my work, and I will never come here again. You don't have to guard against me like this. I am not so cheap as to give myself to you to be trampled." After saying that, she turned around and left.

After loving him for so long, she finally knew that she had been self-indulgent.

What a ridiculous and sad feeling! In fact, she had been making things difficult for herself.

Henrick stood rooted to the spot in a daze. Looking at her back as she hurried away, he was at a loss.

"Hey, Young Master Henrick, I just met a beautiful woman when I came in. She's so beautiful. Is she a new artist in our company?" Henrick's personal assistant, Josue, came in with breakfast. Henrick still stood where he was. Yes, wasn't her giving up exactly what he wanted?

"Hey! Young Master Henrick, why aren't you talking?" Josue was not very tall, but he was smart and lively. He was also proactive and humorous.

Henrick came back to his senses and glanced at him indifferently. Then, he walked to the revolving chair beside the desk. After sitting down, he leaned back.

He said in a slightly tired voice, "You can have breakfast. I'm not hungry."
