Chapter 629 She Was Too Afraid to Face Manuel

"The doctor said I can be discharged as long as I don't touch the wound." Henry pretended not to feel Susan's sadness and said peacefully.

The white gauze on his wrist was faintly visible, beneath his clothes.

Susan couldn't sleep last night because Manuel was through her head. Multiple times, she felt impulsive and wanted to get up from bed and go to Manuel's home, as she desired to stay with him all the time. She felt like a girl falling in love. As long as she thought of the one she liked, she would forget anything else in her life.

At that time, she received a call from Henry.

She didn't want to answer it but also felt she could have a good talk with Henry since they had been both unstable a few hours ago.

After calming down, she wanted to talk thoroughly with Henry. She didn't want others to think of Manuel as a paramour. She just didn't Manuel to be treated unfairly because of her.

The moment she answered the phone, she heard Henry say, "Susan, I don't hate you. I just blame myself for not being good enough to make you love me all the time."

"That's not true, Henry. You are good. It's just Manuel..."

"Manuel is better than me, right?" Henry smiled slightly.

Susan felt bad about his smile.

The more he behaved like this, the guiltier she felt.

"It's okay. I understand." Henry said, "Manuel looks better than me, more capable, and richer. You should choose him. He should be the right person for you. Susan, you're beyond my reach."

"Don't say that Henry, please, no. I don't think I'm beyond your reach. I even feel guilty about why I took the initiative to pursue you at that time I was opposed to my father at that time. Everything came from the wrong place, but you know, that's gone. I just want to make up for you and the damage I have caused you over the years."

"No need," Henry said.

The expression on his face was ferocious to the extreme.

Susan finally admitted that she pursued him because she wanted to be against his father back then.

But Henry didn't have the purest motives to approach Susan either, for he got to her to get Phillips Bank.

If it weren't for him, Susan should have been with Manuel.

He saw Susan and Manuel kissing in the school and found they liked each other. So he designed so many ways to get close to and get Susan. "I'm sorry, Henry."

It was this guilt that made Henry replace her pressure point.

Susan was soft-hearted. Hence Henry knew she would not leave him as long as he was miserable enough.

"You don't need to say sorry and make up for me. There is no right and wrong when it's come to relationships." Hearing that, Susan cried harder.

She had thought she would give Henry a lot of material compensation.

"Goodbye, Susan," Henry said in a weak voice.

"Henry, are you okay?" Susan was aware that something was wrong.

"Yes."

"What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing." Henry didn't say anything but his voice was getting smaller, "I wish you and Manuel be happy." "Henry..."

"I won't be the obstacle in the future. Susan..." Henry seemed to start choking.

"If there is a next life, I hope we can... pass by. Then we won't be so... painful..."

"Henry!" Susan called him loudly but the phone had been hung up.

Susan was startled by Henry's words, feeling that what Henry said was not full of relief but despair.

She was very afraid that he would do some terrible things to himself. Thus she rushed out of her apartment and headed for Henry's place immediately.

Since they knew each other's passwords, Susan got in easily.

When she walked into the room, she saw blood all over the floor.

Henry fell into a pool of blood, dying.

Susan was so terrified. The terror made her tremble and she couldn't control her fear.

She called the ambulance and sent him to the hospital.

Sitting in the hallway, she was waiting for Henry outside of the emergency room, with blood stains on her clothes.

Staring at the blood on her, she felt genuinely remorseful. She had no idea what to do if Henry died that night. Perhaps, she would never get over what happened, overcome with grief and remorse for the rest of her life.

It took more than three hours to rescue Henry.

When he saw her, he said, "Sorry about this."

Susan broke down and cried.

"Don't cry. I was born alone, when I die, I'm alone too."

He was telling Susan that he was alone without her in the world.

As she was waiting for Henry outside, she was thinking that Henry had not even a family member. And now when he was in danger, no one could accompany him to give him love and warmth.

At the thought of that, she felt much more guilty about Henry.

So, Susan changed her mind again. She would give Manuel up.

Manuel had his family and friends. Since they were divorced, Manuel lived well. But Henry couldn't lose her, as he had only her.

"Let's go. I'll take you home first." Susan raised a smile.

"I'll go with you to the office first." Henry said, "I want you... to come back to me."

Susan nodded silently.

Later, she didn't listen to her father's advice but insisted on removing her from the post of Manuel's assistant.

She knew clearly that she was too afraid to face Manuel.
