Chapter 2206
Alice did not speak, but Brenden was very interested and asked, "Miss Mason, what common trick are you talking about?" Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Heidi explained with a smile, "To be honest, this kind of trick, it's something that Mr. Henrick is used to. Alma has been doted on by him since she was a child. Even when she had a cold, he would come back from abroad to visit her. Take a year ago as an example. Her wrist was sprained, but he flew back from abroad to visit her."
Alice's face suddenly turned as pale as snow. She still remembered that a year ago, when Gia called her and told her about Martin, she had also mentioned that Henrick had returned. At that time, she no longer wanted to hear news about him.
She lowered her head and felt very uncomfortable. She heard Heidi's voice again, "With Mr. Henrick, Alma has always only wanted things from him, but she has never given him anything. She has a boyfriend named Jaime Jefferson, yet she is still entangled with Mr. Henrick."
"Over the years, she took advantage of the relationship between herself and Mr. Henrick and stepped on others to climb to her present position. Just like a few days ago, she and Amiyah had some conflict. When they met, it was inevitable that they would bicker with each other. However, Alma ran to tell Mr. Henrick, who specially warned Amiyah that if she made trouble for Alma, he would not be polite to her."
Alice smiled bitterly, lowered her head, and said, "Isn't everyone like this? He loves those who only ask but pretend to be weak and ignore those who ask for warmth. Maybe it's the love of a lover."
Brenden felt very sad when he heard her words.
Standing not far away, Henrick's heart ached when he heard that. There was no harm without comparison.
"Seven years ago, on the day of Mr. Henrick's birthday...."
"Seven years ago," Alice interrupted her.
"Yes, it was during Mr. Henrick's birthday seven years ago." Heidi sneered.
Henrick's heart suddenly tensed up, and even his entire body arched slightly.
"Seven years ago, Alma and her agent drugged Mr. Henrick and sent him to the hotel. I don't know why but after that, she came out shortly after."
"Back then, I saw the whole thing. Not long after Alma left, I saw Mr. Henrick's godmother, Madam Joye, come out of the hotel. Alma looked flustered. I think Madam Joye might have been there, so she didn't succeed."
Alice clenched her fists tightly and looked at her coldly. "Why are you telling me these things?"
It turned out that it was Alma who had sent Henrick to the hotel seven years ago. At that time, Alice could only see her back and did not remember who she was.
Heidi smiled and said, "It's very simple. Alma's enemies are all our friends. What's more, this time, her agent deliberately spread the news about the relationship between her and Mr. Henrick just to frame you today. You don't have to believe what I said."
"As far as I know, Alma has a chance to get close to Mr. Henrick this time, and she will definitely scheme against him. Only when she becomes his woman will she have a chance to marry into the Alwynn family."
"Everyone knows that Mrs. Alwynn is modest and kind. As long as the woman is a kind girl, Mrs. Alwynn will not stop Mr. Henrick from marrying anyone. However, Alma is not a kind person. Mrs. Alwynn can easily find out what she has done if she wants to."
Speaking of this, Heidi's cell phone suddenly rang. She looked down and found that it was Amiyah calling.
"Alice, I'm not afraid of anyone hearing what I said today. Hasn't Amiyah been suppressed by her all these years?"
"I'll go pick her up first." She smiled and turned to leave.
She had told Alice all this on purpose. Judging from the way they got along with each other, there was something going on between Alice and Henrick.
Moreover, Alice's family background was not ordinary. She could compete with the Alwynn family.
She had no evidence of what had happened back then. With Henrick's love for Alma, he would not believe her even if she told him. On the contrary, he would continue to suppress her. However, Alice was different. The two families had business dealings. This matter would eventually reach Henrick's ears.
Bang... Alice suddenly sat down on the ground.
Seven years ago, it was Alma who had set Henrick up.
However, would he believe her if she told him?
She had been framed for seven years. If it was really Alma, then she didn't want to carry that charge.
"Alice, what's wrong with you?" Brenden squatted down to help her up. Looking at her ugly expression, he frowned and began to think deeply.
Her face was pale. She looked at him with a smile and said, "Brenden, I'm fine. I'll go back to my room and have a rest. I have an appointment with the director tonight. I have something to talk to him about. You can go with me."
After saying that, she fled back to her room.
"Alice..." Brenden chased after her worriedly.
Henrick looked at Alice's lonely figure. At that moment, something seemed to be brewing in his heart.
He leaned against the wall and slowly sat down on the ground. The expression on his face was indescribable.
He couldn't believe that the girl he had been with for so many years was the one who had schemed against him seven years ago.
It wasn't that he didn't want to fall in love in these years, nor did he not believe in love. He wanted to go through the years with the woman he liked, just like when he saw that his parents were as loving as before. Unfortunately, he didn't have a woman he especially loved, so he didn't go to the ends of the earth for the woman he liked, nor did he do anything stupid.
However, he stayed up all night for Alma and traveled across countries for her.
As long as something happened to her, he would come back to visit her even if he was busy. He thought that she had no one to rely on and wanted to be her support.
He even thought that after what happened seven years ago, he was very sorry for Alma as he had liked her from the beginning to the end.
If he hadn't met a suitable girl, Alma would have been the most suitable one for him.
He used to look forward to it, but right then, he was in so much pain.
He could find Alma in a crowd from a distance. It was because he had that kind of love in his heart that he could travel so passionately between countries for her.
That was why he took the opportunity to create all kinds of roles for her, including the chance to be the female lead this time. It was indeed because of him that Alma had gotten the role of the female lead.
His passionate love was taken advantage of in the end.
Fortunately, he had finally decided that he did not love her.
However, he had felt pity for her since he was a child.
Henrick's heart suddenly sank and he smiled dispiritedly. If you can forgive anyone without a bottom line, they can hurt you without a bottom line.
What happens if a person's true colors were ugly when they had been exposed?
He glanced in the direction of Alice's room and then turned to leave.
Alice, if I wronged you, I will definitely seek justice for you.
When he arrived at the hotel entrance, he took out his phone and dialed Abigail's phone number.
He remembered what his god-mother had said that day. She had told Alma that she should pay more attention to her food and drink. So, did Abigail know about what had happened that day?
