Chapter 2239
Alma couldn't believe what she was hearing. She felt numb, as if she was dreaming at this moment. She thought that when she woke up, everything would be over.
However, Henrick's cold voice made her return to reality. "Alma, from now on, I won't take care of you anymore. Candice and Ellie can't escape either. They must pay for what they have done."
"Now, the two of them have been taken away by the police. As for you, get out of the entertainment industry. Don't let me see you again."
For Alma, it would be very difficult for her to get out of the entertainment circle.
Over the years, in addition to acting, she had only been dreaming of marrying the second son of the Alwynn family. She had dreamed so much that she could not come out from her dreams.
She looked at the ruthless man in front of her, the man who usually looked at her with a gentle smile. At this time, the expression on his face made her feel strange and scared.
His words were to completely ban her, leaving her no chance of survival in the entertainment industry.
How could he treat her like this? She had been following him ever since she was a child. She had studied very well since she was a child, and she had been directly admitted to Multimedia University in River City and started her dreams since she was in high school.
In the years when he had not returned to the country, she had started from the bottom and gained experience. Then, she had made use of his reputation to get all the way to where she presently was.
However, at this moment, his words completely shattered her dreams.
It was only at that moment that she realized that all of this had been planned by Henrick.
Her breathing hitched and she could not accept the facts.
She questioned him angrily, "Henrick, how could you do this to me? I... love you so much. Apart from... wanting to marry you, what did I... ever do to you?" Her voice was trembling and choked with sobs.
When she said those words, Henrick's calm eyes were full of anger, and the atmosphere became so tense that people could not breathe.
Alma was frightened by him. At this moment, she finally knew how ridiculous she had been. She had never deeply understood the man in front of her. She thought that she knew him, but right then, she realized how wrong she was.
What she saw was only the superficial Henrick, who was good to her.
She seemed to have forgotten what kind of person his father was.
There was a strong sense of mockery on his handsome face, and the frost in his eyes seemed to freeze everything around him.
The moment she saw his eyes, she became nervous and even her breathing became cautious.
"Haha..." His mocking laughter was also very cold. "Alma, your love is really cheap. You say you love me, yet you are dating Jaime Jefferson. You're trying to reap benefits from the both of us, and you also gave him your first time."
"Alma, I've never seen such a shameless woman like you." His voice was full of disdain.
His words rang in her head.
She couldn't believe what she had heard. How could he know about these things?
She had done these things very secretly. How did he find out?
At that moment, Alma finally understood what it meant to lift a stone and hit her own feet.
"Alma, I feel sick of your love. Get out of the entertainment circle by yourself. Don't wait for me to make your scandal known to the world." After saying that, Henrick turned around and was about to leave.
"Henrick," she cried and called out to him. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
He turned to look at her, his handsome face devoid of any warmth.
She took a few steps towards him in tears, her eyes full of questions, and her tone was aggressive. "Henrick, if you didn't like me, why did you treat me so well? If you didn't like me, why did you have to help me? If you didn't like me, why did you give me false hope? Now, you say that you want me to get out of the entertainment industry. What do you think of your previous efforts?"
In her opinion, it was he who gave her the illusion that he liked her. That was why she took advantage of him, and she was full of expectations to marry him.
It was all his fault. Since she was a child, he shouldn't have given her such hope.
"Haha..." He was so angry that he laughed.
His laughter was full of self-mockery, disappointment, and anger. There were mixed emotions on his handsome face.
"Alma, when you were in primary school, you were often bullied because of your family's poor situation. I saw that you were pitiful and wanted to help you. I didn't want to see you being bullied. I
begged my father to let you be a child model because I wanted you to have a good future."
"Over the years, I helped you grow, both openly and in secret, so that you could have a bright and beautiful life. Even as a friend, I am sincere in helping you. However, you have terrible ambitions and want to marry me to enter the Alwynn family."
"Let me tell you, although my family is rich, our requirements are not high. No matter what family you come from, as long as I like you, my family would not object to my choice. However, my mother only has one condition. The girl I like must be kind-hearted."
"Look at yourself again. Do you... deserve it?"
His sexy lips were smiling sarcastically, and the corners of his eyes and eyebrows revealed his pain. The pain in his heart was akin to it being cut by a knife.
All his efforts had been doubted and questioned by her, which was undoubtedly the most painful thing for him.
Because he treated her as a friend, he was good to her.
Alma choked. She had forgotten that because of his special care, she was able to get rid of the predicament at that time.
A human being's desires were endless; as long as they could get it, they always wanted more.
Henrick smiled bitterly. "Alma, why do you think I'm helping you? In my eyes, your smile is as clear as a spring. When I see your smile in summer, I feel cool and relaxed. Because you were innocent and lovely, I pitied you and took care of you as a friend. However, what did you take me for?" The ending was indeed so painful.
After finishing his words, he turned around and left. This time, he walked very fast.
By the time Alma realized what was going on, Henrick had already pulled his suitcase into the elevator with Josue. The moment the elevator door closed, he heard her heart-wrenching voice.
"Henrick, you can't treat me like this, boohoo..." Alma sat paralyzed on the ground. She didn't have much strength, and her whole body was trembling.
However, no matter how sad she was, things had already happened. She was unable to turn back, and she finally fainted in the corridor of the hotel.
Henrick's eyes were cold and his expression was icy. Josue was watching from the side, trembling. He could feel that Henrick was very angry right then.
Right then, they were going to Lemmon City. It was uncertain when they would come back, so he felt a little guilty. If they left, when would they be able to come back?
In Lemmon City, the scenery was beautiful. The sun shone brightly, and the surrounding greenery was excellent. On both sides of the road to the villa, the wisteria were blooming beautifully, resembling a purple waterfall.
The bright flowers were also very beautiful. Henrick was very satisfied with the surrounding scenery. What made him even more satisfied was that he was right next door to Alice.
