Chapter 847
Chapter 847
The wolf had a winning game when the shepherds quarreled.
Henry had always thought he was very smart and had been secretly following May. However, during
this time, Christina had been quietly following and observing him as well.
"Christina, if Patrick knows that you're actually following a man, you'll be screwed."
It was rare for Charles to get a hold of her, and he was immediately gloating.
"We're on the same boat now. Henry is your employee. If Patrick finds out, you'll be in trouble too."
Christina said as if she didn't care. If he dared to tell Patrick, he had done it long ago.
Charles stretched himself in his new sapphire blue Bentley and said to her calmly,
"Henry is no longer my employee. He's officially fired."
"What?"
Crystal had followed them out for she had been bored with nothing to do during pregnancy.
"You fired Henry? No wonder I've seen some other guy in the show these days."
Crystal was more compassionate than them, and she said, "Poor Henry. Breaking up with his girlfriend
and losing his job at the same time must have been a blow for him.
"He's been following May secretly like this. Oh, he's sitting on such a dirty stone step in the theater,
lowering his head and thinking about something. He is unshaven and hasn't groomed himself. He looks
really upset."
Charles then added calmly.
"That's nothing compared with what he has done before. He went to the bar every day last month to get
himself drunk. I heard from the bartender that he would throw up with a pillar every time he came, and
he has even vomited out bile. He was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment twice because of
his acute gastroenteritis."
Christina listened in silence.
Crystal winked at Charles and continued to share Henry's miserable stories, "I heard that Henry has
been an orphan since he was a child."
"I've found out that he was adopted by two abnormal parents. It was so miserable. It's said that when
Henry was only five years old, his adoptive parents forced him to take off his clothes and stand in the
snow in the middle of the winter. They enjoyed hearing the child begging for mercy when kneeling.
They didn't opened the door to let Henry in until he fainted from the cold."
"His adoptive parents also forced him to stand under a tree in thundery weather to scare him, not
allowing him to enter the house."
Charles sighed loudly on purpose, "Alas, Henry seems to be even more miserable than Derek when
she was a child."
Derek had often been abused by his stepmother when he was a child.
Christina had been with a sense of justice since childhood. If anyone bullied Derek, she would be
furious.
Christina had a strange look. When she looked at Henry's haggard figure again, she actually felt a little
pity for him.
"Charles, you can give him another job."
"It's no use. He's not in a good condition and can't work. If he continues like this, he'll probably become
a homeless man."
"But May has given up on him. I can't help it."
"There's a way, Christina. Since you're so overbearing, you can just ask May to give him a chance."
Christina turned around and glared at him, "I'm not overbearing!"
Charles immediately shut up, with full resentment in his heart.
"I don't think Henry is a jerk. Christina, just help him. He's so pitiful." As a pregnant woman, Crystal had
recently become very benevolent.
"How can I help him?" Christina was a little reluctant.
Charles immediately perked up and gave her a bad idea, and then asked, "What do you think?"
Christina was firm in speech but soft in heart.
If they wanted to help Henry, they had to get Christina's approval. Otherwise, she might send Henry
back to F Country with one sentence.
That night, Henry returned to his cheap rented house and locked himself up for three days.
He shut himself off from the world with his cell phone being turned off. He had not eaten for several
days, but he had no sense of hunger in his stomach. He was so muddleheaded that he seemed to
have died in bed.
He had thought a lot and seriously reflected on how many times he had angered May in the past. Every
time when he seek sympathy to make up with her, it'd work.
But things were different now. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
She really ignored him.
It was as if his life had suddenly been meaningless.
On that rainy night seven years ago, he had been like an abandoned stray dog, squatting in front of her
door for shelter. And then she had kindly invited him into the house for dinner. From then on, he had
counted on her.
In fact, if she hadn't known him back then and lived alone in F Country, May could still live a colorful
life. She had so many friends, and she could do her job well and live a stable life.
Just like she was now, and without him, she could start over soon.
But he couldn't do it himself. He felt that he had been abandoned by the world since he had been born.
He was like rootless duckweed, without home, without direction, which was left alone.
It was precisely because he was such a person, after he met May, he wouldn't have dared to let go of
her.
For she was the only one who could make him feel home-like warm.
Henry jumped up abruptly. His eyes lit up with realization from confusion, "Home."
He had never dared to dream about home. He hated the word "home," because he had been born
without parents. Other children all had "home," but he hadn't.
His adoptive parents had secretly abused him, making him feel that the word "home" was even
frightening.
"I can make a family with May," he muttered suddenly.
"I should have married her a long time ago. We can make a happy family."
Henry was like being struck by lightning, and this thought occurred to his mind.
Having been haggard for the past few days, at this moment, he suddenly perked up. He stumbled down
the stairs, but because he was too weak, he actually rolled down the stairs.
"Oh, young man, are you okay?"
The two women who lived in the same building with her saw him rolling down, and hurriedly helped him
up.
Henry ignored the bleeding from the bruise on his back and shoulder. He quickly got up and went
downstairs in a panic, holding the handrail of the escalator and trembling.
He flagged down a cab and went straight to a large jewelry store.
Then he bought the biggest and most beautiful diamond ring in the shop.
