Stay Around You Now And Forever novel (Hunter Jackson) novel Chapter 331

As Emily said that she wanted to see Henry, the latter quickly came.

He didn’t ask why, nor did he blame her for picking an inappropriate time.

After Emily got in the car, she heard his phone ring countless times.

In the end, Henry switched off the phone and drove her along the highway near the seaside to enjoy the fresh air.

“Why don’t you ask me the reason why I want to see you?” Emily had calmed down.

The sea breeze was chilly, gradually cooling her temper.

“Why should I bother? I’m so handsome and charming. Isn’t it normal that you miss me?”

Henry glanced at her.

The girl looked depressed. He suddenly said, “Do you want to go to the seaside for a barbecue?”

It wasn’t particularly chilly in early winter, but a little cool.

In such weather, people felt good to have a barbecue at the seaside.

Despite of the jaded palate, Emily nodded.

Henry drove back and quickly stopped at the nearby beach.

There were many barbecue stalls along the seaside. Despite the lack of good environment, it was quiet. It was a workday. Thus, there were few people at the seaside.

“Are you busy today?” Emily glanced at his pocket.

Ever since he switched off his phone, she didn’t hear any more ringtones. But before that, he got many calls.

“Today is a working day.” Therefore, there was no need to ask whether he was busy or not.

“Is it very important? Just now, you received a lot of phone calls.”

“They urged me to attend the meeting.”

“Is it a big project?”

“Yes.” Henry didn’t seem to care about it, and he waved to the boss far away.

The boss came over and gave him dozens of bunches of seafood and drinks.

Henry said, “Take these drinks away. We don’t need them. Do you have any warm water? Send me some.”

“Alright.” The boss immediately went back and soon came over with a thermos kettle.

“Leave it. I’ll let you know if I need anything else.” After sending the boss away, Henry poured Emily a cup of warm water.

His voice was like the gentle sea wind. “You haven’t fully recovered yet. Don’t drink cold drinks on these days.”

Emily’s heart skipped a beat. Then she looked at him absent-mindedly.

“What are you thinking? Drink first.” Henry frowned when he noticed that she was just staring blankly at him. “You are a bit strange today. If you want to say something, just say it.”

“Will you harm me?” she suddenly asked.

Henry did not answer this question immediately.

After looking at her for at least three seconds, he handed the cup to her. “Drink first.”

Emily lowered her head and gulped down half a cup of warm water.

When she turned to look at him again, Henry was concentrating on turning over the seafood on the grill.

“If I have to answer, then I hope you can feel it with your own heart. It doesn’t matter what I say. What matters is whether you’ll believe me or not.”

His eyes flashed with sadness, which soon he checked. Henry did not show it in front of her.

However, Emily still noticed it.

Did she hurt him?

If he asked her this question, would she also be hurt?

They had known each other for a few months. How couldn’t she know what kind of person he was?

It was easy to deceive others for a simple day or two. But how about one or two months?

‘I shouldn’t suspect him. Such suspicion will hurt anyone.’

“I’m sorry.” She looked down at the seafood on the grill.

Henry stared at her. Although he didn’t know what she was thinking at this moment, at the very least, this was a sincere apology.

He smiled faintly, “Since you have apologized, no matter what you thought about before, let it pass. Be happy.”
