Gluey Love Between Us novel Chapter 2308

Soon, Alice brought the famous breakfast burrito. The beef was very tender, and the smooth top of the sausage suit matched the tenderness of the beef, not to mention the special sauce. In Alice's eyes, it was as delicious as ever.

She also ordered an avocado toast for Henrick.

The avocado looked fresh, and the toast was made with healthy ingredients. The color whetted one's appetite enough.

Henrick took a bite. His eyes lighting up, he gushed, "Allie, I'll take away one set of this toast for Juliet."

Speaking of which, his future mother- and father-in-law were also giving him a hand. Since he was getting along well with Alice during this period of time, the aforementioned couple had gone on a business trip.

He was very grateful that the task of watching over his daughter was given to him. This allowed him more time with Juliet.

It left enough space for him and Alice to get along with each other.

"Why not. I should also bring her a breakfast burrito. She loves it." Alice was savoring her burrito. Although she had had her breakfast at home, she couldn't help ordering another one here.

"You do that." Henrick nodded with a smile. His mood was pleasant, the morning picture-perfect.

After breakfast, he watched Alice enter the company before he got into the car with his daughter's breakfast.

After driving for a while, Henrick asked Josue, "Has Alma returned to River City?"

Josue supplied, "She came back, Mr. Henrick, but she went abroad again. Last night's flight. She knows your character like the back of her hand. She's afraid that you would take revenge, hence she fled overnight."

Henrick glanced at him coldly. "Does she even deserve having me taking revenge on her?"

Josue immediately smiled an appeasing smile. "She doesn't, of course. Mr. Henrick, do you want to find out where she's gone?"

Henrick sneered and said, "Find that out. She knew that she wouldn't be able to go groveling at Jaime's feet for help, and lo, skedaddle she did."

"I got you. I'll send someone to check it out when we get back."

Henrick made a deep throaty acknowledgment noise and closed his eyes to rest.

During this period of time, a myriad of things had happened.

"By the way, you'll need to pick up someone at the airport tomorrow. He's my brother's friend, Carson Harris. He's here to treat my hand."

Josue was excited to hear this. "I understand. I will definitely go and pick up Mr. Harris first thing in the morning."

The way outsiders saw it, Henrick's hand was seriously injured, but he himself couldn't care less.

His indifference to his injury somehow allowed others to breathe better and worry less.

......

Alice had a dinner party this night. Since Brenden had departed on a business trip, she could only take Kylie there.

The dinner party to welcome their new client, Mr. Poplar, was organized in the vicinity of the company, one she was obligated to attend.

This said Mr. Poplar was a middle-aged man, with his assistant and two friends sticking close to him. He had been drinking at the table, so Alice could only go along with him. After all, it was yet the time to sign the contract, so the client should be treated with the utmost deference.

One of the friends brought by Mr. Poplar seemed to be in his thirties.

This man would always propose a toast to Alice, and his body tended to, intentionally or unintentionally, lean close to her, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

She was so annoyed that she wanted to burst out with obscenities!

If this man continued like this for about half an hour, she would probably fall out with him and teach him how to behave.

However, Alice was almost at the limit of her alcohol tolerance. Her face was flushed, her vision blurred. She looked very charming. The man was fascinated and kept toasting her with a smile.

Although Alice was drunk, she was still conscious.

She knew that if things went on like this, something would happen.
