Chapter 250
It was as if Henry knew what he was about to say. “I just like to sit like this. It has nothing to do with anyone. Mind your own business.”
“Why are you getting so worked up when I haven’t even mentioned who it is?” Xavier burst out laughing
He glanced at Weston and blew a smoke ring, holding the cigarette in between his fingers.” There’s really nothing you can do with this nephew of mine. He can’t change his capitalist attitude no matter where he goes.” Henry followed his eyes and looked at Weston, who was reading the newspaper leisurely, and shook his head, smiling. “He is not like us. He has a woman to feed.”
Xavier raised his brows playfully and uttered with a teasing tone, “Guinevere is the young lady of the Cohens. Moreover, she is a popular star. Does she need him to support her?”
Henry laughed without saying anything.
He could see that Weston’s eyes were telling another story.
Xavier had been in the business industry for many years, so he was not as simple as he appeared to be. He knew Henry meant something else just at a glance. “Hmm? Do you have a different opinion about our perfect couple?” Henry pushed his wheelchair closer to the railing and reached out to touch the potted plants placed above.
Among them, there was an Easter Lily Cactus, which he had kept the longest.
It seemed that it would bloom soon.
Everyone knew that these two had turned against each other for women once even though they were best friends.
Henry even pursued Guinevere openly. Nevertheless, it was just a one-sided love. She had all her heart on Weston and only saw him as a backup If Weston were to fall in love with another woman, he would be able to take the spot. He heard the mockery in his words but did not get irritated. Suddenly, a pricking pain was felt on his fingertip. He did not pay attention when fiddling with his cactus, so he got prickled. A bead-like drop of blood emerged from his fingertips.
Seeing this, Xavier reached out to take away the potted plant in his hands.
“You have been staying in the hospital for too long that you have started fiddling with these useless things. You never have green fingers. Why don’t you give them to the nurses? At least you can make a good impression on them.”
Before Xavier could touch the cactus, Henry suddenly grabbed his wrist.
