My Pretty Sweetheart novel Chapter 994

Evan nodded and helped Rowane to the lift then frowned a little at seeing the crowd.

Sebastian redirected him, "Evan, you can help Miss Zanes to my personal elevator."

Evan was surprised and looked at Hendrix. When Hendrix didn't say anything, he smiled and rejected it politely.

But Sebastian merely laughed, "Miss Zanes sprained her ankle in my building. I am more or less at fault. Surely I can use my privilege to help ease her discomfort."

Hendrix chose to speak up then, his voice low and steady, "Do as he says and take care of Miss Zanes. Go!"

Evan nodded and helped Miss Zanes to the CEO's personal elevator.

Hendrix however, stood still in front of the lift, not budging. Sebastian was a little confused and asked, "What's the matter, Mr. Roberts?"

"I'll go down with the other lift" He answered softly, and then followed us into the staff elevator.

It was lunchtime, so the lift was packed. Hendrix stood out. Hisslender and tall physique plus his good looks had people looking at him.

It was some time before Linda was able to voice her thoughts. She asked me quietly, "What is he up to?"

The CEO's elevator was spacious. It was large enough to accommodate another person.

I couldn't comprehend the way he was acting either. But since he was already in the lift, I just kept quiet.

The elevator stopped several times on the way down, with many people going in and out. Somehow, I ended up in the corner, Hendrix in front of me.

His back was toward me and the crowds pushed us closer. I knew however that he used his body to make sure I was not squashed in the corner.

I'd hurt him deeply with my words yesterday, and awkwardness grew between us. I stared at my feet and tried to shuffle back to create more space between us. He glanced back briefly as if he knew what I was trying to do but made no comment.
