Gluey Love Between Us

Chapter 2256

Alice looked at Brenden apologetically. Looking at the table full of delicious food, she regretted telling everyone before the meal.

Brenden was not in the mood to eat.

Kylie looked at Brenden and also felt uncomfortable. They had all been working together for several years, and they had always seen Brenden's affection for Alice.

However, Alice was gentle and easy to get along with, and she always treated everyone with a smile.

However, her smile was also like a hard and transparent barrier, blocking everyone's approach, as if no one could enter her heart.

For a moment, Brenden's mind was blank. He even felt that he was too tired and didn't have a good rest, that he was too afraid that Alice would refuse him, and he had hallucinated.

However, the aroma of the food in front of him, the oppressive atmosphere, and the guilty look in Alice's eyes told him that he was not hallucinating. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

However, there was one thing that he needed to ask clearly. "Alice, the children don't have a father. Do you plan to spend the rest of your life like this?"

Brenden wondered if he still had a chance.

He didn't care about the children's existence. He would love them too, and Alice's children would be very cute.

Alice looked at him and did not answer his question.

The children had a father, but she didn't dare to love him anymore.

"Maybe!" She responded with a smile.

Theresa spoke up, "Miss Klein, you can't think like that. You still have a long way to go in life."

"Although you are devoted to your children, there is no conflict between that and having a love life."

Society had such a high rate of divorce, and there would be many divorcees with children.

Children were important, but her own happiness was also important, because people's lives would really fly by quickly.

Alice smiled bitterly and at the same time, she felt a little disappointed. Her heart that had been stirred up again once she saw Henrick, and it began to beat wildly in her chest.

She said, "Let's talk about it later."

Brenden seemed to see a glimmer of hope again, and his mood suddenly became much better.

If you loved someone deeply, even if there was only a glimmer of hope, you would not give up.

For so many years, there had been no other woman like Alice, and he only had eyes for her.

Therefore, he would not give up even if there was a glimmer of hope.

Brenden smiled and looked at Alice with tenderness in his eyes. He said, "Let's eat. I'm starving. I've been waiting for this rich feast tonight."

He suddenly acted as if nothing had happened, as if Alice's words had not hurt him.

They all felt that everything was fine, so the others were not restrained.

Everyone raised their glasses and turned around.

Alice wanted to stop drinking. She didn't have a good capacity for alcohol, and it was very troublesome to ask someone to drive her.

However, seeing that everyone was so merry, she could only bite the bullet and drink with them.

Alice liked the dishes in this restaurant very much, especially the beef and shrimp, as well as the sausages. They were all very delicious.

Everyone ate while chatting, and the atmosphere was surprisingly good.

Kylie and Lane had always been able to make the atmosphere lively. During this period, Alice went to the toilet.

The moment she stepped out of the private room, she seemed to have seen Henrick.

She tried to focus, but she didn't see anyone in front of her; it was as if she had just had an illusion.

She frowned in confusion. She had only drunk two glasses of red wine, but was she so drunk that she saw Henrick?

Alice laughed at herself. She was really crazy. No matter where she was, she would always think of Henrick.

She quickened her pace to the bathroom, but she didn't know that she wasn't drunk. She did see Henrick, but she didn't see him clearly.

After she entered the bathroom, Henrick came out of the corner. Looking at Alice's back in a hurry and her slightly drunk face, he couldn't help but worry that she didn't have a good capacity for alcohol.

He knew he was right to come that night.

He had heard what Alice had just said in the private room.

She was almost out of the shadows of her pain. Only when she came out could she start anew.

Not long after, Alice came out of the bathroom. She seemed to be in a bad mood. She lowered her head and looked lonely.

Henrick was surprised that he could see her loneliness and pain. It turned out that when Alice fell in love with someone, one could see through to her heart with the naked eye.

Henrick's heart ached. Seeing Alice's tired figure approaching, he moved a little and looked away from her.

What made Alice sad was that there were many people around her, but she still felt like she was alone.

After dinner, they went back for karaoke on the seventh floor of the mall.

Alice had already booked it in advance as she wanted everyone to relax. She wanted to take this opportunity to let everyone eat and have fun.

Although there were not many people in her office, everyone worked hard.

They could also be crazy when they let loose.

Kylie and Lane were fighting to sing, while the other staff members played games.

Alice was not very interested because she was a little drunk. Her mind was full of Henrick's bright smiles and his words.

"Alice, why are our son and daughter so cute?" These words were so warm that she couldn't help but think that they were a family.

These images came to her mind, which made her upset.

She just sat quietly in the corner and watched them play.

No one knew where Brenden went. After arriving at the karaoke, he said that he had something to do.

Alice didn't see him coming back.

The lights in the room were hazy. Kylie was presumptuous and heart-wrenching as she sang a love song at the top of her voice. Alice felt really drunk and heartbroken. She wanted to leave as soon as possible, but he was afraid that he would spoil the fun of these little girls.

After all, they had been working very hard during this period of time.

Just as Alice was lost in her imagination, Brenden came back with two paper bags in his hands.

The fruits in the karaoke were not fresh in his eyes. Alice liked to eat watermelon, and the weather was hot, so he bought some iced watermelon juice and brought them back.

After giving each of them a cup, he took the last one to Alice.

Alice looked at the watermelon juice and smiled. She took a sip and said, "I was wondering where you went, but it turns out that you went to buy some watermelon juice."

Brenden looked at her slightly drunk little face. Her eyes were red and blurred. Her frowns and smiles were charming, and she still looked very beautiful.

He pursed his lips, and his eyes darkened.

Alice was already drunk. After arriving at the private room, she and Kylie drank a few glasses of beer. She drank the iced watermelon juice and closed her eyes, content.

She did not notice the possessive look in Brenden's eyes.

Suddenly, the door of the private room was pushed open.

Henrick walked in with Josue.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Alice and Brenden sitting in the corner.
