Alice said, "Then let's go to the food stall."
Lemmon City was famous for its food stalls, and she wanted to have a good meal with him.
In the past, when she went to see Gia in River City, they liked to go to the food stalls near Gia's uncle's home.
There was a wide variety of dishes, and they ate very well.
Alice always thought that she could bump into Henrick, but she had never met him.
Alice told Josue the address.
"Okay! Let's go to the food stall." Henrick looked at Josue. "Josue, give me your phone, and I'll direct you there."
Josue handed the phone over. He complained in his heart, "Mr. Henrick, can I not go? It's just to watch your public display of affection."
However, if he got out of the car near the airport, he would only be able to stay there as there was nothing else nearby.
He didn't expect that Alice, who was from a wealthy family, would want to go to a food stall.
In the end, the three of them went to a food stall. Josue did not dare to disturb Henrick's pursuit of his wife. He ordered his own portion and took it away to eat it in the nearby park.
Only Henrick and Alice were left sitting face to face. She felt a little sorry for Josue.
Henrick seemed to have read her mind. He smiled and reassured her, "Alice, don't worry about Josue. He doesn't eat in an elegant way. He always likes to hide while he eats."
Josue, who had been targeted, was actually more elegant than Henrick.
However, at this moment, Josue, who was sitting on a big bench in the park, couldn't hear Henrick's words.
The three of them ate their fill and went home at half past eleven at night.
It was already too late for Henrick to say good night to her daughter.
When they arrived at the gate of Alice's house, Henrick got out of the car and opened the door for her.
Alice got out and looked up at him. "There will be a party in three days. Didn't you promise Michelle that you would treat them to dinner? She called me during the day and asked me to take you to her party."
"It's all because of you. You pretended to be my boyfriend for no reason. Now that we are tied together, have you thought about how to take it apart?"
"Moreover, don't forget your identity. They have begun to search for me."
The news on the Internet was unfavorable to her. She had kept a low profile since she was a child, so she hid her identity as Bert's daughter.
Henrick frowned. He had long forgotten about that matter.
"Alice, I've never thought about taking it apart ever since I tied myself to you." Henrick's expression was very serious.
However, when it came to Michelle, he felt sick.
"Unless..." Henrick wanted to say something but stopped on second thought.
Alice was speechless. Unless what? Did he want to give up so soon?
"Unless what?" Alice looked at him with a little anger in her eyes. If he gave up now, there would be no relationship between them except for the children.
Henrick suddenly took a step forward, looked down, and stared at her with a deep gaze. "Alice, unless you really don't have feelings for me, I won't give up on you. I won't give up for the rest of my life."
Hearing this, Alice breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, he did not say that he would give up. Otherwise, she would be very disappointed in this man.
Henrick was very close to her, and his hot breath gushed out onto her face, spreading in her heart, making it tremble.
His love and affection for her flowed out of his eyes. If he really liked a person, then these feelings could not be concealed, nor could they be hidden.
"By the way, I remember that you also like red wine. When you see your favorite, buy yourself a bottle. We may stay here for a long time. If you are not used to it, I will transfer you back to River City to deal with other things and I will find another assistant here."
Josue suddenly looked at him sadly.
"Mr. Henrick, are you abandoning me or are you looking down on me? What haven't I done well enough? Tell me and I'll change it!" He felt like he had been dealt a harsh blow.
He was complacent over the red wine, yet the next sentence made Josue feel like he had been thrown into the bottomless abyss again.
Did he say something wrong just now?
However, after thinking about it, he didn't think that he was wrong. He was just telling the truth.
Henrick looked at Josue, who was about to cry. He smiled and said, "I don't dislike you, nor do I think you're doing a bad job. You're doing a good job. Isn't your family in River City? I'm afraid that you'll miss them."
"Ah..." Josue was stunned. "Mr. Henrick, when did you become so human?"
"Wasn't I like a human before?" Henrick retorted.
Josue shook his head. "Mr. Henrick, I find that you seem to have grown up during this period of time. In the past, you used to do whatever you wanted, whenever you wanted. Who would have thought that you'd remember that my family is in River City? Didn't I follow you abroad all these years? Isn't that the same as what I'm doing now? How many round trips can I take traveling back and forth everyday with the hour-long flight?"
Henrick touched his nose in embarrassment.
This man was really wise.
"Well, since you think it's okay, you can stay here and go home to rest." He really had not paid attention to these problems before.
"Okay, let's go home." Josue started the car and drove back to the yard. In the future, he should be careful when he speaks. In this era, it was really difficult to find work.
The butler, Mr. Davies, was still awake and was waiting at the door.
After Henrick got out of the car, he looked at Mr. Davies and said with a smile, "Mr. Davies, if I come back late in the future, you should go to bed early. Don't wait for me."
