President Henry Is Here

A young man strolled in casually, wearing a sleek silver suit that made him look both noble and dangerous.

His smile was mischievous, and his eyes sparkled with charm.

"Ah! It's Henry!"

"President Henry?!"

"How could he be here?!"

Henry approached Eclipse, his cold eyes locked on Robert.

Though his smile was still there, his voice was icy. "Robert Jade, you called Miss Eclipse despicable, shameless, and said she wasn't worthy of you. You told her to leave Star City because she was bothering you. Say whatever you want, but there's one thing I'd like you to explain…"

Everyone in the room turned their eyes on Robert, their gazes full of disdain.

As a member of a noble family, Robert should've known better.

Even if he didn't like Eclipse anymore, she was still his fiancée, and publicly humiliating her at Elder Mr. Jade's birthday celebration was just cold-hearted.

Even those who didn't care for Eclipse couldn't deny that she had always treated Robert kindly.

Yet, Robert had still humiliated her in front of everyone…

The way Robert acted today disgusted the crowd, and he felt the sting of their judgment.

The cold eyes around him made his expression even darker.

But Robert had no way to deny it. Henry had overheard everything.

The woman who had just criticized Eclipse looked embarrassed and quickly spoke up, "I'm sorry, Miss Eclipse. I shouldn't have criticized you earlier. You were right."

Eclipse glanced at her, but didn't respond. Instead, she turned to Henry and nodded. "President Henry."

Henry handed her a glass of wine and said, "Miss Eclipse, calm down. Someone will be heartbroken if you get too upset."

Eclipse took a sip of the wine, her tense face relaxing as she thought of the man waiting for her outside.

Henry watched her, clearly amused.

Even with all the malice and insults thrown at her, Eclipse remained calm and composed, standing tall with a proud and noble air.

Henry chuckled softly, drawing the room's attention. "Miss Eclipse was just thrown out of her home, and I won't comment on that. But First Young Master Jade here claimed she sold herself out to some man. I wonder where he heard that."

Robert's face twisted in anger. "She did it but won't admit it. What, Henry? Are you going to protect her?"

Henry's smile deepened, his voice playful yet firm. "Miss Eclipse is a shareholder of Empire Group. It's my responsibility to protect her. How could that be meddling?"

Robert's face went pale, and everyone in the room was shocked.

Up until today, Eclipse had been seen as nothing more than a cast-off, an orphan thrown out of her family home.

But now, with Henry publicly supporting her, the situation had changed.

Everyone suddenly realized that the diamond ring Henry had bought recently might have been for Eclipse.

Mrs. Jade clutched her chest, feeling sick. If Eclipse didn't care for Robert anymore, that was one thing.

But now, the shares she had hoped to get through Eclipse's marriage to Robert were slipping out of reach—all because of her son's actions.
