Ellie's eyes flashed to Henry's. "Any friend of yours is also mine. I would love to meet a new person. Everyone is the same here day after day."
Deul's hand crushed Henry's as he brought him into Ellie's view, "Miss Chen, I'd love for you to meet my old boss's son, Henry Wong. He's in an important position in a big company so he has a lot of money."
Henry blushed as Ellie looked him up and down. "Mr. Wong." She smiled simply and Henry felt something in him jump. Although she couldn't walk properly, there was still strength in her. Her soft chocolate eyes were clear and friendly . . . even deeper was her sadness.
He smiled back with compassion, "So you are the beautiful Ellie Chen. I'm very happy to meet a lady who lent my old friend a helping hand. Everyone I've spoken to in the last few days has told me how you are kind to those in need."
Ellie's smile grew softer. "To be kind is to be a friend. I'd really love to know you more."
