Chapter 6 Wedding Ring

Barry listened to the busy tone on his phone and felt awkward, not knowing how to explain to Henry. He hesitated for a long time before plucking up the courage to knock on Henry's office door, "Mr. Smith, Madam..."

"Excuse me, am I interrupting you?" At this time, a soft voice interrupted Barry. Nancy who was dressed in a white dress came in with a smile on her face, "I see that the office door is open, so..."

"What are you doing here?" Henry didn't have any expression, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as an iceberg face.

"I came to find you for dinner!" Nancy nodded to Barry as a salutation. And then she quickly walked over to Henry and said with a smile, "Thank you for sending me home last night, so I came to treat you to dinner today to say thank you."

"No, thanks. It cost no extra effort." Henry refused Nancy without hesitation.

Last night, Henry was called out to dinner by a friend, and only after arriving did he realize that Nancy was there. After dinner, everyone heckled him and persuaded him to send Nancy home, and he didn't refuse. But he didn't refuse because he didn't want to embarrass everyone, and the others didn't know he was married.

Nancy was a little embarrassed, especially since there were other people present. No matter if she was with Henry in the past, or in the years abroad, she was always chased after by others and she never had been so humble. But he was Henry, so she didn't care.

"Henry!" Nancy sadly called Henry.

"I still have something to do. You go back first." Henry frowned slightly and said in a cold voice.

"OK, I'll go back first, and I'll come back to you when you're not busy," Nancy said in a low voice, which was also a relief to her. She sadly turned to leave as she saw Henry keep working, lowering his head without even looking at her.

After Nancy left, Henry raised his head to look at Barry and asked him in a cold voice, "When will she return to the company?"

Barry was stunned for only a second and immediately understood who Henry was referring to and replied, "Madam said she had asked for a leave and won't return to the company today. She will come to the company to deal with your business tomorrow."

Henry furrowed slightly. This was the third time today that Sofia made him feel surprised. The first time was in the morning when Sofia proposed divorce in front of the whole family without even discussing it with him; the second time was in the cloakroom when Sofia was determined to move out.

"Investigate where she's living now and give me her address." Henry had a premonition that Sofia had disobeyed his order and had already moved out.

"Does Madam not live in your house?" Because he was too surprised, Barry asked Henry subconsciously. Seeing Henry looking at him sternly, he recognized that he had said something inappropriate and immediately changed his words and said, "I'll immediately investigate Madam's address."

The office quieted down. Henry stayed there alone. He leaned on the back of the chair and subconsciously turned a very ordinary ring on his ring finger. He looked down. It was put on for him by Sofia herself when they got married.

At that time, Sofia was a person who had difficulty even earning enough money to make a living and worked part-time everywhere. Later when they decided to get married, she used the only money she had to purchase this ring. Ever since Henry put it on, he never took it off, and after so many years, he seemed to have gotten used to the ring.
