Stay Around You Now And Forever

Chapter 383: I Hate Myself

Was he nice to you?

It was so sad for Emily to hear that.

Emily thought that she was calm enough.

However, this simple question almost made her break down!

More than a month ago, she didn’t say anything and wanted to break up.

Hunter hadn’t called her for the whole time.

He didn’t even send her a single text message.

She did not get sad and think that he did not care about her.

On the contrary, she knew that all of this was to make her feel better and to not make things difficult for her.

“He treats me fairly. Not very well, but not bad either.”

Emily knew that lying to Henry would only make him feel worse.

Therefore, it was better to tell him the truth.

“He doesn’t care about where I go. But he wants me to stay in the WongRiver Pavilion, so I’ll stay there this semester.”

“And he got a private teacher for me. So, I didn’t drop much of my lessons.”

“In the Jacksons’, I live a pretty good life. Look, I’m a lot whiter.”

All of this was true.

No exaggeration, no concealment.

Hunter had indeed treated her like this.

The next second, the elevator stopped.

The moment the elevator door opened, Emily pulled her hand back.

At the same time, Henry let her go.

Emily was grateful. It had been more than a month since she saw him, but he was the same as before.

He was careful, considerate, and never made things difficult for her.

Perhaps, his request for her to stay was the biggest challenge for him.

This man…

“Henry, why are you here?” Lois and the others were surprised when they saw Henry in the September Company.

They haven’t seen him here in the past month.

It seemed that if Emily didn’t come, he wouldn’t come, either.

Although they were all in the office park of the Sharp Group, the main building was quite a distance away from them.

If they didn’t go to the main building to look for Henry, they wouldn’t see him at all.

Today, Emily came back, and Henry also came.

Coincidence? Or was it intentional?

“Just to check the warehouse upstairs.” Henry put his hands back into his pockets and said, “Let’s see if there is a need for your company to expand.”

However, it didn’t seem necessary for Henry, a dignified Sharp, to come over and check the warehouse himself.

However, no one had said anything about Henry’s excuse.

Lois asked, “So, have you eaten dinner?”

Henry shook his head.

Lois immediately said, “We are going out for dinner. Why don’t you join us?”

Henry ignored her invitation. Instead, he lowered his head and looked at Emily beside him, saying, “Is that okay?”

Emily was surprised. But when she looked up at Henry, she smiled indifferently.

“Of course. The boss wants to treat us to dinner. How could you say no to that?”

She just took Henry as her boss.

Emily did see that the light in Henry’s eyes had dimmed a lot.

However, no one could say anything else at the moment.

Was that okay if he ate with them? Of course.

Lois smiled, “Then, hurry up. We’re so hungry!”

They had a big meal, but nobody was comfortable.

It wasn’t because Henry the boss was here, but because they didn’t know where they would have the next dinner together.

And they didn’t know when it could be.

At 8:30, Emily had to go back.

Henry was the first one to leave. Everyone thought that he had something to do.

However, when they walked out, they saw him driving the dark luxury car that he liked at the entrance of the restaurant.

“I know the way you go home. Let me send you back.” Henry opened the car door, not giving Emily any chance to refuse.

But she wanted to refuse. She had planned to take a taxi home.

However, Lois gently pushed her, “Go.”

In fact, Lois thought Henry was truly pitiful.

She had never seen such a handsome, wealthy and affectionate man since she was born.

She hoped that Emily could stop hurting him.

If possible, just give him some warmth for the last time.

Emily felt a little helpless. She was pushed to the car by Lois, so she could only get into it.

“I know you find it troublesome.” After closing the car door, Henry stepped on the gas and drove the car away.

Emily told the truth, “He won’t like to see me go back in your car.”

Even though these words would hurt Henry much.

“It’s fine. I’ll pull over outside. I won’t get close to the house. I won’t let anyone from the Jacksons see me.”

She could say that she was going back by taxi. Was that okay?

Emily could no longer find any excuse to reject him.

“I thought you would hate me.” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

The car drove smoothly on the road. She looked at the changing scenery outside the window and gradually calmed down.

Since she had got in the car, she should enjoy the good time with him.

Putting their relationship aside, they used to be best friends.

And they were the best in sync.

“I don’t hate you.” There was no smile on Henry’s face. He said seriously, “I hate myself.”

Emily clenched her fist and didn’t know what to say.

She understood what he meant.

But there was no need. He didn’t have to think like that. It was just her own problem.

“I was unable to protect you and your friends.”

Henry felt very sad about it.

Emily was the same.

She took a deep breath and shook her head, “Hunter has long been very powerful. There weren’t many people who could ‘have the ability’ in front of him, and now…”

She turned around and looked at Henry seriously.

“Since he returned from Aarigant, I can feel that he is more powerful than before. But I never dare to ask him about it.”

Henry tightened his grip on the steering wheel.

Yes, Hunter had become stronger. He was so powerful that his friends like Henry could only look up to him.

It was because of a woman, Emily.

A relationship could be a disaster, but it could also become a good discipline.

After going through the tough time, Hunter has now become the supreme king!

“So, Henry, don’t say that you don’t have the ability. It’s because your rival is too powerful.”

Henry knew that Emily was comforting him, but what she said was the truth.

Who could be “tough” in front of Hunter?

Even the boss of Heaven-like Island was forced far away from the Bentson City by him. And he was still on the run.

Now Hunter was not afraid of offending anyone. And no one dared to offend him.

“Henry,” Emily suddenly turned around and looked at him. “We are friends, very good friends.”

“Yes.” Henry nodded bitterly.

He just felt bitter and heartbroken.

In the end, he parked his car in the shadows, which was at least two hundred meters away from the gate of the Jacksons’.

Afterwards, he watched Emily get out of the car and walk towards the gate slowly.

Once again, she walked away from his life.

The moment she disappeared behind the gate, Henry clutched his chest.

Was he painful?

He didn’t know.

Perhaps, he was just numb.

He was breathing with difficulty. And his heart ached so much that it seemed to have been torn apart.

When these feelings appeared from time to time in his daily life, Henry just got used to it.

Hunter would treat her well, right?
