My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 605

Hendrix nodded. Without looking, he handed the document to me with raised eyebrows, "Take a look!"

I was speechless. I really wanted to get him to stop.

Norman smiled. He looked at Hendrix and said, "It looks like Mr. Roberts and Miss Reid have known each other for a long time."

Somehow, I felt that he asked that question on purpose.

Hendrix raised his eyebrows. Tucking the strand of hair on my forehead behind my ear, he answered in a gentle voice, "Well, we've been married for seven years after all."

Someone in the crowd held their breath and Norman's body stiffened slightly, like he was not expecting it.

Hendrix paid no attention to it. Noticing my eyes on him, he smiled and asked, "What's wrong? Do you think that a husband like me is not up for the task? Do you think that I don't deserve to be Anne's father, so you're pretending not to know me?"

He obviously said that on purpose.

Stunned, I pursed my lips and didn't say anything else.

In the office, someone whispered, "She is Hendrix Roberts' wife. Oh my God, so..."

Surprise was part of it.

At that moment, the gossip from a few days ago ceased without any interruptions.

I sighed. He came to see me in the office on purpose. Norman must have told him something, so he came here.

"Are you finished?" Hendrix asked as he grabbed my hand.

I nodded and stood up.

He looked at Norman and asked, "Want to have dinner together?"

Norman shook his head, "I have to pick up Bennett and go home to see my mother later. You can go ahead. We can make plans next time."

We left the hotel and got into the car.

I glanced at Hendrix. "When did you get here?"

"Just a while ago!" he said.

We chatted along the way. We were quite natural and familiar with each other.

At school, Anne was carrying her schoolbag. As she queued up, she saw Hendrix from afar. Her small face seemed to light up with happiness.

Excitement was written all over her face as she waved at him. Hendrix gave a slight smile as he raised his hand to greet her back.
