Chapter 2191
Alice smiled sadly and looked straight at the man in front of her. She said word by word, "Yes, I framed you. Are you satisfied with this answer? If so, please don't appear in front of me casually in the future." Henrick was stunned. He didn't expect her to admit it so readily.
At that time, he had always thought that the woman had framed him. Later, when he learned that the woman was Alice, his thoughts became more and more intense.
Because of her pestering, he felt very annoyed.
She thought that he just needed an answer and she could just give it to him.
She didn't see who the girl who helped him go upstairs was. Her eyes were too focused on him. She wasn't drunk at that time, but she was framed. Otherwise, she wouldn't have lost her innocence.
In order to relieve his pain, she also suffered a lot, and this man, with the first sentence he spoke to her, sent her to hell.
He left, dejected.
She admitted it in person, giving him an indescribable feeling.
Alice had never expected that she would be defeated again after meeting Henrick.
Because he didn't care about her, and because he didn't love her, he easily judged a person's crime.
She was in a bad state. Before the others came to work, she left the company again.
When she left, she was crying.
He happened to see her running into the elevator. When the elevator doors closed, he saw her face full of tears.
He was stunned for a moment and did not know that he would hurt her so deeply.
Looking at her tears, he felt that he was an inhumane b*stard.
In the next few days, he never saw her again.
Half a month passed, but she did not show up in the company. Even Brenden did not come to the company. Only the two assistants often sent scripts to Dwayne, the director, for review. Additionally, filming was also set to start because the script had been changed very well.
On this day, Henrick met Alice's assistant, Kylie. He couldn't help asking about Alice's situation. "Miss Ratliff."
When Kylie saw the big movie star talking to her, she was so excited that she became shy.
Everyone was used to calling him 'Mr. Henrick', so she also called him in the same manner, "Mr. Henrick, what's the matter?" She lowered her eyes shyly.
He nodded lightly. "Where are Alice and Brenden? Why haven't I seen them come to the company recently?"
He couldn't forget the scene of Alice running out with tears streaming down her face.
He wanted to make a phone call to ask about her situation, but he found that he didn't have her phone number.
In the company, after asking Dwayne for her phone number, he looked at the phone number for a long time. She still used the same number as she did before. Only then did he realize that he did not care about anything concerning Alice.
He was too ashamed to fight back.
"Mr. Henrick, Brenden modified the script at Alice's home. I just sent it to the director for review."
"What? Brenden is at Alice's home?" His expression suddenly darkened.
"Yes, Brenden likes Alice. Everyone around knows that they have been getting along with each other, and their relationship has improved a lot. We will go there only if we need them, so we will not disturb them easily," Kylie honestly told her idol.
Henrick returned to her office with a terrible expression.
Alma had witnessed what had just happened.
Henrick had been in a bad mood recently. She had asked him out several times, but he had refused.
He really cared about Alice.
In the past, he only had eyes for her.
However, that was not the case now.
She twisted her ankle when she wore her high heels the day before, but he didn't care about her. Instead, he asked his assistant to take her home.
If it was in the past, he would definitely send her home.
Looking at his lonely back, she bit her lower lip. That woman could actually affect his mood. It seemed that she had to speed up.
Alice and Brenden's abilities had always been recognized by everyone in the industry.
Dwayne was very satisfied. The start time was set to be three days later. In order to memorize the script, Henrick did not have time to verify what had happened back then.
In fact, with his current relationship with Alice, even if he found out the truth, it would still be a stalemate.
Anson also did his best in order to make everyone happy.
On the night before the opening day, all the crew members were invited to the top floor of the River City Hotel's restaurant.
Alice, Brenden, and their assistants were also invited.
Alice couldn't avoid this kind of thing. She couldn't just stay away from Henrick for the rest of her life.
"Do I still have a long way to go?" She thought.
It was impossible for her to hide at home forever because of him.
On this day, she got up early and went to find Eden to pick out a beautiful black diamond dress. The Clarke family was not short of money, so she could eat and dress according to her preferences. Despite this, Eden didn't accept the money, but gave her the dress.
Alice didn't like Henrick, but she liked Eden very much. She liked her gentle and virtuous temperament and her smile that could mend people's hearts.
She stayed with Eden and Giada for the whole afternoon before going home to take a shower.
After she was ready, she applied delicate makeup and put on the dress. After receiving the news from Brenden, she went out.
When Brenden saw her coming down, his eyes were full of amazement.
"Wow! Miss Klein, you will definitely surpass everyone tonight." He elegantly opened the door of the passenger seat and Alice got in with a smile.
"Am I not usually beautiful?" She looked at him and smiled.
His heart trembled slightly, and his heart beat so fast that it was almost impossible to suppress.
His tone was seductive and as gentle as water. "Beautiful, very beautiful. Miss Klein, you are always very beautiful!"
"Haha." She smiled, like a flower blooming. She was beautiful and charming. "Well, get in the car quickly. Don't be late."
"Yes! As your male companion, I'm honored to be here tonight!" He looked at her with a gentle smile and then went around the car and got in the driver's seat.
On the top floor of a big restaurant in River City.
After Anson left for a while, he wanted to go back to accompany his wife and daughter.
"I'm leaving. Watch out here."
Henrick was speechless. He smiled evilly and said, "Uncle Anson, you have a son yourself. You don't care about a son like me, do you?"
"Well, it's my wife's fault for caring about your family. You old thing, calling my wife 'mommy', but you don't call me 'dad'. I can't take advantage of this? You are very bad!"
"My heart has been hurt by you. I'm going back to find my little Jacqueline and ask her to heal my wounded heart," Anson said and slipped away.
Henrick smiled silently, and Alma, who was standing by the side, looked envious. For people who were born into good families, their beginning was the end of other people's stories. As for her, she had to be careful.
