Love After One-night Stand with CEO novel Chapter 107

When Henry carried Rosa back home, Cecil was very stunned.

"Uh... Uncle... What happened to my sister?" Cecil was very surprised.

"She drank too much!" The man carried her to the room and put her down.

Cecil pushed his wheelchair over and looked at Rosa who was drunk on the bed. He couldn't help but frowned. "She was fine when she went out. Why did she drink so much?"

"I'm going to get some water." Henry walked away and returned with a basin of water.

This time, he was holding a towel.

"I'll clean her..."

"Uncle..." Cecil frowned and stopped him.

"What's wrong?"

"That basin is... for washing feet... and that towel is for wiping feet..."

"Huh?" Henry was stunned.

"I'll do it." Cecil headed over and said.

Henry took out his coat and stumbled upon her stuff from before.

Therefore, he placed her ID card and other documents back into the drawer in her wardrobe.

As soon as he was done, Cecil came over.

"I'll do it!" The man rolled up his sleeves and wrung the wet towel dry.

Then, he carefully wiped her clean.

Cecil didn't say anything. He just watched him carefully wipe Rosa's face gently.

It looked as if he was handling a work of art.

Seeing this made Cecil frown deeply.

Why did he have a feeling that he wasn't just treating her as his niece?

"Uh... let me do it, uncle. I'll take care of my own sister!"

Cecil stepped forward and said as he couldn't stand it any longer.

Henry turned his head to him and noticed the unusual wary expression on his face. 

Her words appeared in his mind. "Don't tell Cecil for now. He can't be agitated."

Forget it, he would find another way to let Cecil accept him.

"Okay, I'll leave your sister to you. I'll head back!"

He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he wouldn't be able to bring himself to leave afterwards.

"Okay, uncle!" Cecil immediately sighed in relief.

He was really afraid that he would refuse.

Then, he really didn't know what to do.

However, seeing his uncle agreed so straightforwardly, he must have been overthinking.

"By the way, these two phones are for you and your sister."

He said as he gave him the bag on the table.

When Cecil opened the bag, he was stunned.

This was the newest iPhone model which had just been released. There weren't even any sold in their area yet. 

It would take a month before there would be the first batch.

How did he get his hands on these so soon?

He was a little stunned.

However, he soon came to his senses.

"Uncle, this is too much. We can't accept gifts that are too expensive!"

These two phones were the newest model, and it hasn't been in the market in their area yet, so the price of each was more than 10,000 dollars.

Needless to say, the price of these two phones combined were definitely more than they could afford. 

They never used expensive phones before. 

Normally, they would get the ones that cost a few hundred dollars. The one his sister used was a bonus gift from topping up his phone card.

"It's a gift from my client. Miranda and the others are already using these. There's no one else using these. You can have it!"

"I can't, uncle. This is too expensive. How about you ask around if there are any friends who need it?" Cecil asked hurriedly.

No matter what, he couldn't accept this phone.

"Do you want to let that incident last time repeat itself?" The man looked at him and said, sounding displeased.

Of course, Cecil knew that he was referring to the last time he got sick.

During that time, he called Rosa countless times, but the call couldn't get through.

She blamed herself because of this.

"I know... I will ask my sister to buy a new one. There are a lot of mobile phones available now, eight to nine hundred dollars could get us a decent..."

"If you don't like it, then throw it away!" The man interrupted his sentence.

Cecil was stunned and was speechless.

"Take good care of her! Call me if you need anything!"

He spoke as if he was giving him a command.

Cecil nodded unconsciously. When he came back to his senses, the man had already left.

Cecil looked at the two new mobile phones in his hands.

He could only feel something weighing down on his heart.

The next day...

When Rosa woke up, she felt dizzy.

Cecil had already cooked porridge in the morning.

He pushed his wheelchair over and looked at her. He frowned and said unhappily, "Didn't you say that you won't drink anymore?"

Rosa looked at him, then she looked around their home. Her mind was still in a whirl.

"What happened between you and Grace yesterday? After you came back, she called you twice and I said that you were asleep!"

"Grace called me?" Rosa was stunned and hurriedly asked.

"That's right!"

"Where's my phone? I'll call her back!" Rosa rubbed her head, feeling a little painful.

Cecil handed her the phone.

Rosa was stunned. Looking at the rose gold phone in her hand, she didn't know how to react.

She turned it over and saw the logo.

"Where did you get this?"

Cecil did not speak. He took out another black phone from the bag on the table.

It was the same model, both having large screens.

Rosa frowned and immediately knew the answer to her own question.

"Sister... why is uncle so kind to you?" Cecil asked in confusion.

The corner of Rosa's mouth twitched slightly. Cecil asking her about this was the thing she feared most.

"Uh... because... because I am Miranda's best friend. Miranda told uncle to take good care of me..."

The more she blabbered on, the more she lost her composure.

Because of Cecil's unwavering gaze that was staring at her...

It seemed as if he could clearly read her mind.

Rosa bit her lips. "Cecil..."

"Sister, the wealth gap between us is too big..." Cecil only said this sentence. 

Rosa didn't say anything.

Indeed, their wealth gap was too big.

"Sister, you should return him my phone. You... can keep yours. Let's pay him back the money, okay?"

Rosa looked at Cecil as tears welled up in her eyes. "Okay!"

Only now did Cecil give her a smile. "You should quickly get up and have breakfast. I already ate and took my medicine. I'll go write my novel now!"

"Okay, rest well!"

After Cecil left the room, Rosa sat on the bed helplessly.

It seemed that Cecil was very against this matter.

However, Henry had gone too far.

She told him before that even if they were dating, money shouldn't be involved.

Rosa got up and opened the drawer in her wardrobe.

There were only 300,000 dollars in her savings...

A phone would cost about 10,000 dollars...

She couldn't bear to spend that much on one phone...

No!

She couldn't use this money. She should just give it back to him.

When the time comes, she could just buy another one for a thousand dollars.

Thinking of this, she grinned and opened her savings book.

She doesn't have to use these 300,000 dollars.

Before she could finish smiling, Rosa was stunned.

She rubbed her eyes and began to count the zeros. "one, two, three, four, five, six, seven..."

30,000,000 dollars!

What was going on? How could there be a few extra zeros in her deposit?

She was completely shocked.

Then she rubbed her eyes again.

The number on the deposit still did not change.

30 million...

How was that possible!

It was his doing...

Henry!

That's right. Only Henry had stayed in her new home last night...

Without thinking, Rosa quickly washed up.

Then she said to Cecil, "Cecil, I'm going out. I'll be back soon."

"Okay!" Cecil replied. His eyes didn't leave the computer at all.

Rosa held her bag tightly.

There were two mobile phones and a deposit.

"Hello, cutie pie, you're awake?" The man sounded quite joyful.

"Where are you?" Rosa asked unhappily.

"Silver Beach, in your apartment," he smiled and said, "What's wrong? You want to visit me?"

"Just you wait!" Rosa hung up angrily.

The next second, she got on the bus.

The man was sleeping soundly with his phone in his hand. He was a little stunned.

Eh...

Why was his cutie pie is making a fuss so early in the morning?

However, he didn't think too much about it. He laid back down and fell asleep with the quilt in his arms.

Ever since she agreed to date him and registered for their marriage...

He was in a great mood.

That was why he could sleep so well these days.

Rosa swiftly entered the password to the apartment.

The door opened with a beep.

She put on her slippers and rushed to the master bedroom with her bag.

However, when she entered the bedroom, she was stunned.

The man was wearing a night robe, holding a pillow and sleeping sideways.

He seemed to be sleeping soundly. The room was so quiet she could hear his calm breathing.

Rosa frowned and walked over.

The man was showing his side profile.

Rosa who was fuming was instantly stunned when she saw his harmless face.

"Uh..." The man made a lazy sound and then slowly stretched his arms.

Rosa stayed away from him and glared at him.

As soon as the man opened his eyes and saw her angry little face staring at him, he couldn't help but laugh.

"You, you're not allowed to laugh!"

His smile was too charming.

It almost extinguished her anger completely.

The man stopped smiling and looked serious.

"Okay, I won't laugh. Go on!"

Rosa turned her back to him and took a deep breath.

Then, she turned around to look at him and raised her voice. "Henry, you've gone too far!"

Henry sat down and leaned against the edge of the bed. Looking at her clenched fists and imposing manner, it was as if she was here to seek revenge.

He said helplessly, "How did I offend you?"

Rosa didn't say anything and opened her bag.

Then, she threw the phones and the deposit to him.

"What are these?"

"Phone and deposit."

"That's not what I'm asking. What I'm asking is why you gave me these. And isn't this your money?"

The man nodded and admitted without even looking at the deposit.

"Why did you do this? Didn't we agree that even if... even if we're dating, you won't involve money?"

She was really angry about this matter.

She didn't want anyone to say that she had fallen in love with him because she was greedy for his money.

Those rumours were too hurtful to her.

She only wanted a simple romance, that was all.

The man got up and walked over barefoot.

Rosa was still glaring at him.

The man smiled gently as he held her in his arms. Then he rested his chin on her head.

"Why are you so angry? Can't I spend money on my girlfriend?"

"Henry Lewis!"
