Gluey Love Between Us novel Chapter 2317

Alice felt a stab of sharp pain.

Although she didn't know what he meant by that, she could tell that he was more or less testing her.

"What did Dr. Harris say?" She was a little angry. "Did you deliberately drive me away just now?"

Henrick did not deny this. He'd wanted to lead her away.

He was afraid that the result would be too disappointing, and he didn't want her to be disappointed with him.

He didn't want her to be in pain anymore!

"Dr. Harris said two years, the shortest period. Any slower and it might take up to five years." In fact, he had thought it over before telling her about this matter.

Now that she was his girlfriend, she had the right to know about it. Then, she would make the decision.

In the past few years, he could also film with one hand, but he wanted to rest and accompany the child and her. It depended on whether she was willing or not.

"So, if you're telling me about this, you want me to make a choice, don't you?" There was faint anger on her beautiful and refined face.

Henrick stared deeply at her. "Allie, you're my girlfriend now. You have the right to know about this."

Hearing this, Alice was offended. If she was only given the right to be privy of this when his hand was sure to recover, she was certain that she would be kept in the dark when the situation was borderline hopeless.

"Henrick, in your heart, am I the kind of person who can't go through the difficulties with you because of such a small matter?"

Furious, she glared at him with her beautiful eyes.

Was she this facile in his heart?

Was he afraid that she would leave him after knowing that he was disabled?

She changed the status quo to live the life she wanted.

But she had him in her life.

On this day they had officially confirmed the standing of their relationship, yet he did not trust her.

"Allie, don't be angry. I didn't mean that. You've liked me for so many years. I'm worried that I'll be disabled for the rest of my life. Of course, this is just a what-if. I won't be disabled for the rest of my life."

He didn't know why he had to say that. In fact, after he'd wrapped up his discussion with Dr. Harris, he'd felt inexplicably uneasy.

He just wanted to seek some comfort. In the past, he could have thrown himself directly into his mother's arms. With his mother around, he felt that all the pain would pass.

Now, although he didn't have his mother by his side, he had Alice, and he wanted to squirrel away a sense of security from her.

His idea was very naive, but he still wanted to talk to her.

Distraught, Henrick looked down. He was ashamed of his immaturity and did not dare to look at Alice.

Alice also noticed his uneasiness. She was oscillating between a laugh and anger.

She walked over, squatted in front of him, and looked up at him. This was the first time she had been so clear-headed to approach him.

Her familiar scent wrapped around him, making him feel incomparably at ease.

Her eyes were fixed on him, and there was a suspicious blush on his handsome face.

"Look at me." Alice's tone of voice brooked no dissent.

Henrick lowered his gaze to look at her. His pupils were dark which clearly reflected Alice's beautiful facial features.

"Fool, why are you so stupid? If you want to test me, please do better than this. If I really do find you intolerable, can you still sit here now? You are such a momma's boy. Let me guess: if Eden hugged you, you would start to think that five years isn't that long after all!"

Henrick nodded violently, then shook his head repeatedly. "Allie, I'm not a momma's boy."

"How are you not?" Alice looked at him, words dying on her lips. "You know how close I am with Gia, don't you? We've been confiding in each other since we were young. I know you well, if you ask me."

To Henrick's chagrin, his own sister, Gia, was a traitor! His affection for her was all for naught. How could she, he thought, have sold him out to within an inch of his life?
