It looked like he had dark clouds looming over his head.
He spoke in a rather low voice, appearing to be not in his usual self.

When Layla saw Henry, she complained, "Where were you' Do you u know what happened just now? Do you know that Winnie...
"I've been here the whole time. I saw what happened. Henry halted in his tracks and looked Layla in the eye. "Are you that surprised to see everything that has happened today?" "What's that supposed to mean, Henry?" questioned Layla Henry was aware that Alina was Madeline.
However, she would never admit that she was Madeline ever again.
"It's been eight months that the Larson family has never given Maddie any form of support Henry's voice reeked of bitterness. "You guys even took the spot from her. At that time, didn't any of you think that she'd someday pull the sand bully the weak just to get back at you?” Layla failed to see the reason Henry lumped Madeline together with Alina Layla trembled. "Don't spout nonsense. That person isn't Madeline! Madeline's long dead. Even the rescue team said it couldn't be helped... Don't tell ine her spirn cback!

"Have at your way, then. Whatever it you all deserved what happened today" Chapter 73 Ever since Henry learned that Madeline had saved him once, he began to see what the lady had gone through objectively.
Every single time, the Larson family was the one oppressing Madeline.
Instead of returning the same, Madeline put up with them tand again. In the end, she even chose to sacrifice herself to save their lives.
Putting himself in her shoes, Henry could only wonder what he would do.
There had been countless nights where Henry made up hypotheses in his head of his reactions if he were Madeline.
The one conclusion he had reached was that he would certainly not save his enemies Henry let out a sigh of relief and walked toward the elevator. He did not even turn his head around to look after boarding it.
At the very least, he knew that she was still alive.
As long as she was alive, he would have a chance to atone for his sins.
Layla gnashed her teeth at that. "Look at Henry, Honey! He must be out of his mind. How could he be that unreasonable..." Thomas did not wish to speak in the slightest. "Rather than getting upset with Henry, why don't you keep an eye on your daughter? Get her to the hospital quickly and have her checked out!

Will you be paying by card or online payment?" Listening to that, Layla had a headache. She accepted the bill and took a gander at it. In an instant, a grim countenance marred her face.
"Honey..." Thomas, too, felt a lump in his throat. "This is way too expensive. Besides, it's not our fault. Your security's the one failing to do their job." Upon hearing that, Layla chimed in, "Yes, what he said. Anyone could've attacked the guests, and you're asking us to pay for it? You should be refunding us the money and compensating us for our emotional distress!" The person in charge smiled frostily. "What you all have are for that." personal grievances. Your nemeses ravaged the place, so we cannot be held responsible Left with no choice, he had to bring that up to hold his own ground.
