She Returns as a Billionaire (Kayla and Henry) novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Ungrateful

“Hendry, I’m in trouble. Can you come over and help me?”

Cecilia’s voice was tearful.

She had always been domineering. She was seldom fragile and weak like this. In this case, Cecilia thought that Hendry would definitely be soft–hearted.

She had learned a lot from Alondra. She was also good at acting soft.

However, Hendry’s voice was not as nervous as Cecilia had imagined. Instead, it was

cold and distant.

“What trouble?”

“I… I can’t explain for a while now. Can you come to the auction house now?”

“How do you know that I am not at the auction house now?”

“Mom…”

“You made Mom do that, right?”

Cecilia was stunned. From Hendry’s voice, she heard restrained anger.

He must have known the truth!

Cecilia finally panicked. “No, Hendry, listen to me. It’s not what you think.”

However, this time, Hendry hung up without waiting for Cecilia to continue.

Alondra looked at Cecilia anxiously. “How is it? What did Hendry say?”

Cecilia was in a trance. She looked at Alondra as if she had suddenly come back to her

senses. She suddenly reached out and slapped Alondra.

Alondra covered her face and looked back at Cecilia in disbelief.

She never dreamed that she would be slapped in the face by a fool like Cecilia.

“Cecilia, you…”

“It’s all your fault! Now my brother doesn’t care about me. What do you say we should

do?”

Thinking of this, Cecilia actually felt a kind of twisted pleasure.

Then she heard footsteps behind her, along with Alondra’s timid voice. “No, Hendry, Cecilia didn’t mean that. She still respects you very much.”

Cecilia’s expression changed drastically. She turned around and saw that Hendry, who had just hung up her phone, was standing behind her at that moment. He was looking at her with complex emotions.

Cecilia knew that she was doomed this time. She said with a trembling voice, “Hendry… I just…”

Halfway through her words, she became mute, and she really did not know how to

explain it.

Unexpectedly, Hendry did not even look at her. Instead, he walked past them and walked to Kaylah.

After Hendry left, Cecilia and Alondra both let out a sigh of relief.

However, they did it a little too early. Rayan came out from the side and looked at them coldly. His voice was cold.

“If we had known that you were so heartless, Hendry should have just ignored you.

“You shameless ungrateful guys! Bah!”
