Chapter 116
When Evan saw Henry, he hurriedly reported, “Mr. King, Miss Bush is here. She is waiting for you.”
Which Miss Bush? Henry subconsciously looked at Evan.
Evan immediately understood. He hurriedly explained, “Miss Kelly Bush.”
Henry’s eyes instantly showed distance. “Tell her that I’m not here.”
At this moment, he had arrived at the door of his office.
Evan knew that he made a mistake. When Kelly heard Evan and Henry talking, she stood up in excitement. And
then, she heard Henry’s direct refusal.
Her smile froze.
Did I… mishear?
Perhaps he thought that there some annoying people were trying to establish an unprofitable partnership with
him. That’s why he said so.
As Kelly was comforting herself, Evan’s voice was sounded again. “Mr. King, Miss Bush is waiting for you in
your office.”
Kelly’s heart skipped a beat. She felt that her expectation would be ruined.
She even felt cold air drifting into the office from the crack between the door and the floor. She felt the
temperature of the whole office was plunging.
Kelly flustered. The Miss Bush Henry wanted to see is not me!
In her anxiety and guessing, the office door was opened.
Kelly hurriedly kept her composure and ran directly into Henry’s indifferent gaze. She said with all smiles. “Henry, you’re back. I’ve been here an hour ago and I didn’t beat your call of duty. Or you could have had the
porridge before the meeting. I will come earlier tomorrow.”
As she said so, she opened the meal box and was to serve the porridge to Henry. She said, “The box is insulated. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Henry, you…”
Before she could finish her words, Henry had said indifferently, “I’ve had breakfast. You don’t need to bother in
the future.”
Kelly was ladling porridge out of the box. When she heard Henry’s rejection, her hands halted and her face
went pale. She put down the bowl and spoon, and said in disappointment, “Henry, are you afraid that my
porridge won’t suit your taste? I used to be a good cook.”
Henry was irritated. But, when he thought that she had been a vegetable for him for so long, he finally
suppressed his irritation. He said with a gentler tone, “You’ve just recovered. You don’t have to bother.
Besides, you don’t know my taste.”
Kelly let out a sigh of relief. “Henry, it’s okay. I’m nice and sound right now. Don’t worry about me.”
Henry said calmly, “You can go home now. I’m busy and I can’t spare time for you.”
Kelly looked taut. She wanted to persuade Henry into agreeing to her stay. However, reason got the best of her
desire to stay.
Her intuition was telling her that Henry was dissatisfied with her doings.
Perhaps he didn’t like me to enter his office without his approval.
After all, the office was full of his secrets, and Kelly was one of the Bush. If she wanted to take advantage of the
King Family Group, she would need something in the office.
Kelly took a deep breath as well as a lesson. She feared that her reluctance to leave would further displease Henry. Kelly hurriedly said, “Then I’ll leave you to work. Why don’t we have lunch together?”
“I have business lunch.” Said Henry by his desk. He didn’t even look at Kelly.
Kelly forced a smile and knew that Henry was completely displeased. She said, “Alright. It’s a business day.
Don’t overwork.”
Henry didn’t reply. He seemed to have lost his patience. His handsome face showed only coldness and
indifference.
After hesitation, Kelly left the meal box in the office. It was her little trick. Henry might want to have a taste,
and, after he had a taste, he might think of her.
Thinking of which, Kelly went out and closed the door.
However, before she walked away, she heard a frigid voice coming from Henry’s office.
“Get in yourself!”
