Chapter 96
Henry glared at Kendrick and said, “If you don’t chase, I will.”
As the words fell, he bent down and brought his injured handsome face closer to Talia, “Will you accompany me to the hospital to have a look at the injury, okay?”
Talia, of course, refused.
The incident of the two individuals fighting in the office was strictly ordered to be kept completely confidential.
The people in the Marketing Department were concerned about Kendrick’s direct leadership position, and no one dared to go against it, so this matter was kept hidden.
Talia returned to the office to clock out, and as soon as she got on the elevator to go downstairs, she saw Henry’s car parked at the front entrance of the company.
After work, there were already many people coming out of the office building.
Henry was afraid that others wouldn’t notice him, so he ostentatiously leaned against the door frame of his flashy yellow Lamborghini.
A striking bubble.
The man’s cheekbone wound was very prominent, with a hint of broken red on the corner of his lips. It caught the attention of passersby, who frequently turned
to
look at him.

Henry, however, was completely unaware and saw Talia coming out of the office building. He walked up to her and stood in front of her.
The man’s voice was deep and magnetic, got injured, can you take me to the hospital?”
Without waiting for Talia’s response, the words fell, and the car keys were directly thrust into the palm of her hand.
Talia was about to return the keys to him, little did she know that Henry had already sat in the passenger seat.
The surrounding gazes were too gossipy, which made Talia feel embarrassed.
Seeing her colleague from the CEO Office Division coming out of the office building, she quickly got into her car, stepped on the gas pedal, and fled from the company’s entrance.
Henry was very annoying, complaining about every little injury.
The two of them came out of the hospital, and it was already 8 o’clock in the evening.
Henry asked Talia out for dinner, but Talia declined, citing that it was too late.
Henry drove Talia home, and, on the way, he said, “Consider my proposal, be my fake girlfriend, and we can make Kendrick so angry
that he’ll be spitting blood. Do you believe me?”
Talia looked out of the window.
Rows of streetlights turned into a long, hazy yellow line under

the fast–moving cars.
There was a gentle breeze, and the stray hair on her forehead fluttered in the wind, entangled with the seatbelt across her
chest.
Talia turned her head to look at Henry, the man’s scattered hair in front of his forehead was lifted by the wind, turning into strands of standing silly hair.
On the rogue handsome face, there appeared a slight sense of gentleness out of nowhere.
“I remember saying that, compared to acting with you, I might as well find Kayson. Not only could I make Kendrick furious, but I could also become the elder of both of you.”
Henry frowned, “I admit that you do have some looks, but my little uncle is famously uninterested in women!”
Not close to women?
Who took her all night long last night?
Thinking about last night, Talia inexplicably felt a bit weak in the legs, and even her ears were tinged with pink.
She gently touched her cheek and, as she arrived at the residential area, she lowered her head to unbuckle the seatbelt.
Henry wondered, “Even if your target really is my cousin, he is so aloof. How are you going to approach him?”
“I was his employee now, and we spent a lot of time together. Opportunities were not scarce, right? Are you ready to perform your chest–breaking stone act!”

As the words fell, Talia opened the car door and got out.
Henry stared at her back quietly and suddenly burst into laughter.

“Talia, if you failed, you might want to consider me again.”
Talia knew, of course, that she and Henry were not possible. One Kendrick was already enough trouble, and she didn’t want to get involved with another one.
Moreover, Henry’s relentless pursuit doesn’t seem like it was just to provoke Kendrick.
Maybe there were other thoughts stored as well.
Talia shook her head and decided to strangle these inappropriate thoughts in the cradle.
She pretended not to understand and looked at him with a smile, saying, “Henry, are you ready to call me Auntie?”
Henry blinked for a moment, then chuckled, “I thought you just wanted to cling to my uncle’s power and authority, but I never expected that you actually wanted to be my aunt.”
Talia smiled and didn’t say anything, then turned and walked into the building.
