CEO Of My Heart Chapter 152

"I'm sure you've had roommates who lived with you during your college days . " Ellie pressed . "I can't believe that your parents would leave in this house all alone .  You must have had somebody . "

Advertis.e.m.e.nt"I did .  My father had a friend whom he considered like a brother .  He married my aunt Sheng Mei in fact . He usually stays here with me in his own wing, but his wife returned from China .  You know love calls . I was getting desperate about the will and we got a bit heated that I was making an impulsive mistake .  I don't disagree with him on that . It's just I needed a solution so I found one . You're not bad . You're a delight . But, obviously he does not know so he's holed up somewhere in Jersey . " Henry gestured off in the distance . "He said that he will come back to set me right at some point . I have no idea though when that will be . "

"I did meet Nadius on that diving trip in China when Deul served both of our families as a diving instructor .  He gave me some lemon drops that my brother stole from me and ate without me . I'd like to see him again as he seemed so giving .  I'm surprised that he would even say something harsh like that . "

"I don't doubt that you will cross paths with him eventually .  Wong Manor is always where my aunt and uncle stay when they're home from travels .  After my father pa.s.sed, he made a point to have dinner with me every night, when he's not following my aunt around for her fashion weeks .  She's a designer for a big brand . I'm not too close to her since she's always working on her collections . I have others who have tried the same from my family, but you know it was never genuine .  They would always order me about and beg for money . Nadius is just right . "

"That's good to hear .  I imagine that you both are very similar to each other then?"

"I'd like to think so .  It would be an honor to have picked up some of his good traits .  We aren't related by blood, you know . But, he has a horde of daughters that follow their mother religiously because they all love fashion .  Nadius and I are a bit out of the loop so we would do manly things together . I've always been the son he always wanted to have after he found out his wife could have no more children . "

"What about your mother? Wasn't she opposed to you spending so much time with someone who wasn't your father? I'm sure mine would have gotten very involved if I was spending time with someone who was not immediate family . "

Henry's expression grew grim as was customary Ellie had noticed whenever people brought up his parentage .  He didn't look into her eyes as he addressed his answer to the bush behind her . His response felt automatic .  "I never had a close relationship with her . She was out of the picture by that point .
