Lunch

Rushing to the downstairs of the company, Henry's eyes searched around. He was not searching aimlessly but looking for a route. Since he did not see Sylvia, it proved that she should be fine now. The purpose of Viper Rose was not to kill her but to catch her. In this case, there would be a safe escape route.

These tall buildings, cafes, and simple restaurants were all irregular pictures in Henry's eyes. The whole CBD business centre emerged in Henry's mind.

About 30 seconds later, Henry locked in a direction and walked there.

Henry's footsteps were very fast, and his eyes were very accurate. He carefully observed every direction and did not miss a single blind spot.

When passing by a small restaurant, Henry's look suddenly changed. Through the floor-to-ceiling window of the simple restaurant, he saw Sylvia sitting in the restaurant. There was a faint smile on the woman's face. Sam sat opposite Sylvia in casual clothes.

Sam was very elegant. He sat there and looked like a rich young master. He and Sylvia sat face to face, which attracted many people's attention in the restaurant.

When Henry saw Sylvia, he completely relaxed, because what he was worried about did not happen.

Henry eased the expression on his face and walked to the restaurant. As he was about to enter the restaurant, he was stopped by someone.

Sam Nan's attendant Chan stood in front of him, looking at Henry with a bad expression. "What are you doing? Stop!"

Henry frowned and looked at him. "I'm looking for my wife, and that's none of your business."

"Your wife?" Chan sneered. "You are a good-for nothing, Henry. How dare you say Miss Lin is your wife? Now Miss Lin is having lunch with our captain. I don't want anyone to do anything to interrupt them."

Henry was not in the mood to quarrel with him. "Get out of the way. I don't want to say it again."

"No way!" Chan puffed out his chest. "I say you're a good-for-nothing, what's the point of being so rude? How can you be so shameless?"

He still remembered that Miss Lin had called his captain two days ago. Miss Lin said that something had happened to the man and asked his captain to help deal with it. Well, his captain had found someone to deal with it. Now that the man was fine and came for the trouble?

Henry took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart. He said, "I'm asking you to move for the last time!"

"Oh, you even threatened me?" Chan looked at Henry with disdain, "What if I say no?"

In the restaurant.

Sylvia turned her back to the door, picked up a cup of coffee, and took a sip. "Sam, anyway, thank you for what happened last time. If it were not for you, I really wouldn't know what to do."

"It's all right." Sam waved his hand indifferently. In the direction of where he was sitting, he could clearly see the scene that Henry appeared at the entrance of the restaurant and was stopped by Chan. Seeing that they were about to fight, Sam said, "Hey Sylvia, isn't that your husband?"

Sylvia turned her head and saw Henry standing at the entrance of the restaurant.

Sam shouted at Chan at the door, "What are you doing? Let Mr. Zhang in!"

Chan snorted coldly and reluctantly said to Henry, "Trash, go in."

Henry didn't even look at him. He strode into the restaurant and came to the table where Sylvia was sitting.

Sylvia asked in confusion, "Henry, why are you here? Didn't you go to take Milan..."

"Why don't you answer the phone?" Henry stared at Sylvia with a serious look.

"Answer the phone?" Sylvia was suspicious. She took out her mobile phone from her small bag and found that there was more than a dozen missed calls from Henry and a few from Milan.

"I muted it when I was working, so I didn't hear anything," Sylvia explained. Then, she asked "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." Henry took a deep breath.

Seeing that there was something wrong with Henry's face, Sylvia asked, "Are you blaming me for not answering the phone?"

"No." Henry shook his head, looked at the time on the phone, and said, "It's time for dinner, too. Let's go home."

"Alright." Sylvia nodded and stood up from the chair.

She said hello to Sam, "Sam, I'll go home first. Let's meet when we have time."

"Okay." Sam smiled and nodded at Sylvia, watching Henry and Sylvia leave.

As soon as Henry and Sylvia walked out of the restaurant, Chan came over with an unhappy face.

"Captain Nan, Henry is too arrogant. If you had not helped him last time, he would still be squatting inside the prison. I really do not understand what he is so proud of. He must rely on Miss Lin when something happens. How can such a good-for nothing be worthy of Miss Lin?"

Sam shook his head and sighed. "Well, who knows? Love is hard to describe."

"Captain Nan, I feel that this boy is too good at acting and confuses Miss Lin. Do you remember what Miss Lin said last time? Why did she say that this boy did it for the sake of righteousness? He must want to show off in front of Miss Lin. I think we can think of a way to defeat him so that Miss Lin can see the gap between you and him clearly and stop being with this loser!" Chan clenched his fist. If it had not been for Sam who had spoken just now, he would not have been able to stop himself from beating Henry.

Sam was a little moved by what he said. "In what way? Get someone to pretend to be a robber. And you want me to help her?"

"Of course not." Chan shook his head. "This method is too low. Captain Nan, we can occupy Miss Lin's building in the name of the maneuver. Any of those things you learned can defeat that trash so that Miss Lin can see the difference clearly."

Sam muttered to himself for a moment before nodding. "Fine! We'll do as you say."

Henry took Sylvia out of the restaurant, got on the car and drove all the way home.

On the way, Henry did not say a word, neither did Sylvia, and the atmosphere was very depressed.

When they were about to arrive home, Sylvia spoke first. She looked at Henry, who was driving, and asked, "Are you blaming me for not answering the phone?! Don't you believe me? Do you think something would happen if I have a meal with Sam?"

"No." Henry shook his head. "I didn't think so."

"Really?" Sylvia laughed at herself. "You called me more than a dozen times in such a short time. I just had a meal with an ordinary friend. Why do you have such a big reaction?"

"I.." Henry opened his mouth but did not say a word.

He had to admit that he was a little unhappy when he saw Sylvia and Sam sitting together, but he was not angry with this matter.

In front of her, Henry seemed to forget his status as an emperor that could shake the whole underground world with a stamp of his feet. He only felt that he was an ordinary person.
