Henrick didn't know when Martin left. When he looked up, his brother-in-law was no longer in the room.
He turned his head. Outside the window, the lights were brilliant.
"Alas!" He sighed and closed his eyes. The image of Alice with tears streaming down her face appeared in his mind again.
He suddenly opened his black eyes. His pupils trembled, and his heart trembled. He felt that he must be sick as it was too uncomfortable to breathe.
Buzz buzz buzz... The phone on the bedside table suddenly vibrated.
He grabbed it and glanced at it. It was Alma. Feeling a little annoyed, he ended the call.
However, the phone rang again.
After several rings, he picked it up.
"Hello!" His voice was very cold.
On the other side, Alma's hand, which was holding the phone, trembled slightly.
"Henrick, are you okay?" She asked gently.
"I'm fine. Don't worry," he replied with no expression on his face.
When the filming was over, he would end the relationship between him and Alma.
He would never let anyone take advantage of him, and the person who took advantage of him would not have a good end.
"Henrick, can I go to your house to see you? I'm worried about you!"
His expression turned cold. "No need. I'm fine. I'm hanging up."
"Henrick, have a good rest."
After hanging up the phone, Alma looked at Candice and Ellie who were beside her; her expression was grim.
Candice looked at her and asked, "Did Mr. Henrick agree for you to visit the Alwynn family home?"
As long as Henrick allowed Alma to enter Dragon Villa, she would be able to make things happen.
Alma shook her head sadly and looked at Candice. "Miss Yates, he didn't agree." She also knew that if it wasn't for marriage, Henrick would never bring a woman home so easily.
Candice frowned and her expression darkened instantly.
"Alma, the most important thing for you now is to ask Mr. Henrick out. As long as you can have dinner together, I can help you solve this problem. We must get the jewelry endorsement."
"We are only responsible for the connections. As for the jewelry business, they will solve it by themselves after meeting Mr. Henrick."
Alma's expression darkened as well. In the past, Henrick had never treated her like this.
Ever since she framed Alice last time, he had changed.
Just once and he had completely changed; she was terrified.
Ellie spoke up, "Alma, don't worry. Mr. Henrick has been in a bad mood these days and he's injured all over. When he recovers, you can ask him out again. He promised you that he would definitely do it. Don't you know his temper?"
Alma nodded, but she still felt that something was wrong.
......
After Victor and Eden went back to their room, she called Aubri again. She told her that something had happened at home that day, and she would meet with her and talk about it in detail the next day.
After hanging up the phone, she took a deep breath and sat on the European-style beige sofa, looking worried.
