Chereads / Call Me by Your Name / Chapter 42 - Chapter 43

Chapter 42 - Chapter 43

Henry Mitchell's expression remained unchanged, and he just spoke calmly.

"I said you needn't come, didn't I?"

Chloe Morgan, as if she hadn't heard, walked in with a smile and placed an exquisite lunch box in front of Henry Mitchell.

"This is a new dessert I've learned to make. Do you want to have a taste?"

As she spoke, Chloe Morgan also opened the lunch box considerately and pushed it towards Henry Mitchell.

All along, Chloe Morgan had completely ignored Sophie Lawrence.

Sophie Lawrence unconsciously clenched her hands. Henry Mitchell had been extremely fond of desserts since childhood. In the past, she had often used this trick to attract him.

Henry Mitchell raised his eyes and glanced at Sophie Lawrence. His hand, which he hadn't originally intended to stretch out, suddenly reached out.

"Thank you."

Immediately, a smile appeared on Chloe Morgan's face. "If you like it, I'll bring it to you every day."

Seeing Henry Mitchell nod, Sophie Lawrence's face instantly turned pale.

She stood up abruptly, reached out and took the hanging medicine bottle, and walked out of the Office Building without a word.

Immediately, the air around Henry Mitchell turned cold.

The corners of Chloe Morgan's mouth curled up slightly, and her eyebrows raised slightly, full of disdain.

Suddenly, something flashed through her mind, and a calculating look rose in her eyes.

She looked at Henry Mitchell and said in a meaningful tone, "Henry, yesterday when I was shopping, I saw Sophie with a man. They were talking and laughing. Do you think she would do something to betray you?"

Henry Mitchell put the dessert in his hand back into the box. "This is a matter between her and me. Now that you've delivered the stuff, you can leave."

Chloe Morgan's face changed, full of unwillingness.

After coming out of the Office Building, she didn't hurry to leave Healing Haven but went to the Emergency Area instead.

Seeing Chloe Morgan who had come looking for her, Sophie Lawrence's eyes suddenly turned cold. "For Henry, you're really desperate."

Hearing the sarcasm in Sophie Lawrence's words, Chloe Morgan suddenly clenched her hands tightly.

Just as she was about to retort, she suddenly changed the topic. When she spoke again, there was even a trace of pride in her words.

"Do you know why Henry is so nice to me?"

Sophie Lawrence was stunned for a moment. Then she heard Chloe Morgan continue.

"He said that I have a very special charm, which makes people think of wild roses that bloom before dawn, pure and flawless yet full of strength."

After finishing speaking, Chloe Morgan also looked at Sophie Lawrence very provocatively.

Sophie Lawrence stared straight at Chloe Morgan, and the memories from a long time ago suddenly rushed out.

Suddenly, she laughed.

Wild roses, that was the nickname Henry Mitchell had given her in the past.

And those words Chloe Morgan had just said were also what Henry Mitchell had described to her back then...

The once - made vows now seemed extremely ridiculous.

Seeing the expression on Sophie Lawrence's face, Chloe Morgan was instantly satisfied. She curled her lips with disdain and turned around to leave Healing Haven.

After Chloe Morgan left, Sophie Lawrence sat on the cold and hard stainless - steel chair, and her thoughts suddenly drifted away.

In college, Henry Mitchell had almost spoiled her to be the envy of all the girls.

If there were other suitors, often before she even got the news, those suitors had already been sent away by Henry Mitchell.

Even after getting married, he had never let her suffer the slightest grievance.

But now, almost all of her grievances, sadness, and heartbreak were given by Henry Mitchell...

After finishing the intravenous drip, Sophie Lawrence went directly back to the Team Zone.

By the time Henry Mitchell was done, there was no one left in the Emergency Area long ago.

In the evening, not long after Sophie Lawrence arrived home, Mrs. He suddenly came, with Chloe Morgan following behind her.

Sophie Lawrence was shocked in her heart. She forcibly suppressed the emotions in her heart and led Mrs. He and Chloe Morgan to sit on the living - room sofa. Then she turned around and poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Mrs. He.

"Mom, why are you here?"

Mrs. He scanned the living room and said coldly, "Where's Henry?"

Sophie Lawrence pursed her lips. "He hasn't come back yet."

"Good that he's not back."

As she spoke, Mrs. He took out a document from her bag and casually threw it in front of Sophie Lawrence.

Looking at the document Mrs. He threw over, Sophie Lawrence's face turned pale all of a sudden.

What Mrs. He threw was her medical diagnosis result sheet!

Beside her, Chloe Morgan's eyes were already full of pride.

Sophie Lawrence clenched the corner of her clothes tightly and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Mrs. He suddenly slapped the coffee table and said angrily, "If it weren't for Chloe telling me, how long were you two going to keep this from me?"

Sophie Lawrence opened her mouth. "Mom, I..."

Mrs. He was also someone who had watched Sophie Lawrence grow up. Earlier, she had been very optimistic about Sophie Lawrence as her daughter - in - law, but she didn't know since when she had only dissatisfaction left for Sophie Lawrence.

"Does Henry know about this?"

Sophie Lawrence froze instantly, and finally nodded.

All of a sudden, Mrs. He became even more furious. "Do you two still consider me as your mother?"

"Miss Sophie, Mrs. He just wants a grandchild of her own. Since you can't give birth, you'd better step aside as soon as possible." Chloe Morgan seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.

Sophie Lawrence coldly swept her eyes towards Chloe Morgan. "Disclosing others' privacy without permission, Miss Chloe, it seems that you really hope I call the police."

As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of the door being opened suddenly came from the entrance.

"Click." Henry Mitchell walked in.
