Chapter 2257
Chapter 2257
All of a sudden, a handsome and dazzling superstar came in, and everyone was stunned.
Especially Brenden. As a man, he was very sensitive. Almost at the moment when he caught Henrick's eyes that looked at Alice, Brenden was like a beast protecting its food, full of hostility towards the other man.
He gently leaned to one side to block Henrick's view of Alice.
At that moment, Alice was slightly drunk and confused, which was very intoxicating.
When Brenden showed hostility towards him, Henrick had already felt it.
Henrick smiled faintly.
Kylie shouted in surprise, "Mr. Henrick, why are you here?"
Henrick smiled and explained, "I was just passing by. I thought I saw Mr. Knapp, so I followed him in. I didn't expect it to really be you." His voice was calm and composed.
Josue couldn't help but want to laugh.
Mr. Henrick, where are your acting skills? You should at least act surprised.
He noticed that the eyes of Brenden, who was in the corner, were full of hostility.
"Oh! Mr. Henrick, please have a seat." Kylie's face turned red.
Henrick's height and perfect appearance really made people feel ashamed. No matter where he was, no matter how dazzling others were, everyone's attention was focused on him.
"Okay! Thank you!" Henrick said as he moved towards Alice.
Alice was a little drunk, and her mind was full of Henrick.
When she suddenly saw him, she could not tell whether it was reality or her fantasy.
After all, Henrick had always had a great influence on her.
"Hello, Brenden!"
After Henrick finished speaking with a smile, he sat down beside Alice.
Two handsome men sat beside Alice.
There was a strange change in the atmosphere.
Everyone looked in Alice's direction.
Josue had always been clever. In order to distract everyone's attention, he opened a bottle of beer and toasted them one by one.
Henrick looked at Alice and asked softly, "Allie, are you alright?"
Hearing the gentle voice, Alice blinked in disbelief.
When she opened her eyes, the handsome man in front of her was still looking at her with a smile.
His eyes, as dark as ink, were so gentle that they seemed to emit water.
She looked into his eyes and emotions flashed across her heart.
Many nights like this, she desperately hoped that he would suddenly appear in her life.
This was probably the first time when she first thought of him, he appeared in front of her.
That handsome and dazzling face had attracted Alice's soul.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Henrick chuckled and asked, "Alice, are you alright? Did you drink too much?"
Alice took a sip of the watermelon juice. The cold watermelon juice was in her mouth, and her stomach also felt cold. She was half sober, and there was a sour feeling in her heart.
"Henrick," she called out tentatively, looking a little silly.
"Yes! Allie, I'm here," he replied gently.
Alice blinked her eyes again, feeling even more aggrieved. He was finally here.
After looking forward to it for so long, he finally appeared when she was thinking about him.
His voice was beautiful and had been imprinted in her heart for a long time. She remembered his voice clearly.
Henrick snatched the watermelon juice from her hand and said coldly, "Don't drink this. It's too cold. You're drunk and your stomach will be uncomfortable tomorrow morning."
His gentle concern warmed Alice's whole body.
Perhaps the anticipation of his presence outweighed the pain in her heart, making her forget the night between her and Henrick.
There was a faint and fond smile on her face. "Henrick, are you worried about me?"
She giggled and did not guard against him at all.
It was the first time that Henrick had seen Alice with her guard down, and she let him approach her without reservation.
"Yes!" Henrick glanced at Josue.
Josue understood her meaning and brought the hot tea he bought to Henrick.
Henrick brought the hot tea to Alice's lips. "Alice, drink some milk tea to warm your stomach first."
"Haha..." When Alice heard the gentle voice again, her little face began to burn with shyness, becoming redder, and her eyes became more charming.
"You... Feed me," Alice ordered him with a silly smile.
"Okay!" Henrick moved gently and put the straw into her mouth.
She took a deep sip. The hot milk tea entered her stomach, and her whole body felt warm.
"It's delicious." Alice took another sip.
Her nose twitched slightly, and she had an inexplicable urge to cry.
"Henrick, did you buy me milk tea?"
"Well, it's your favorite flavor!"
Hearing this, the faint pain in Alice's heart turned into a strong joy.
"Thank you, Henrick. Hehe... I'm so happy!" Alice took the milk tea from his hand with a smile and kept drinking it.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Henrick's face, and his eyes were filled with tenderness.
They almost forgot about everyone else; it was as if they were a bubble, isolating themselves from everyone around them.
Brenden, who was sitting next to them, was the most affected. From the moment Henrick sat down, he felt that he was just like an outsider.
When he was in River City, he noticed that there was something strange with the way Alice looked at Henrick.
However, he didn't dare to ask because he was afraid of hearing the answer he had expected. He was afraid that the man in Alice's heart was Henrick.
He didn't forget that Henrick had changed the meals for the crew to lighter dishes for a period of time, and that was after Alice had suffered from gastritis.
All these signs made him have no choice but to doubt Henrick's motives.
"Mr. Henrick, why are you here?" Brenden's tone was unfriendly. He looked at Henrick with wary eyes, as if he was here to snatch his beloved.
To him, Henrick was now just a person who wanted to compete with him for the woman he loved.
Henrick smiled and shamelessly stated, "I came to visit Allie. The Alwynn family has always had a good relationship with the Clarke family, and I'm now living next door to her."
Alice spoke up, "Brenden, he really lives next door to me." Her voice was soft and mumbled because she drank wine, which made people's hearts feel numb.
Brenden was speechless.
Henrick smiled and helped her up. He didn't want other men to see such a beautiful Alice.
"You guys go ahead and continue playing. Alice is drunk. I'll send her back first. If you want something to eat, just order it. I'll take care of it." After saying that, Henrick brought Alice out. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
Josue immediately looked at everyone and said, "Everyone, I'll stay and sing a song with you."
It was just so that he could keep an eye on Brenden.
Sure enough, Brenden, who came to his senses, quickly stood up to follow Henrick.
Josue smiled and blocked his way. "Well, Brenden, Mr. Henrick and Alice are childhood sweethearts. It's not good for you to chase after them at this time."
Brenden was stunned. He was shocked by Josue's words 'childhood sweethearts' and successfully stopped.
"Ah, Mr. Henrick and Miss Klein are childhood sweethearts?" Kylie was also shocked.
