BossNovelChapter 1451
So, did Uncle drop by because he had a tiff with Aunt?
"Uncle, did something happen between you and Aunt?" Fiona asked, her curiosity piqued.
"That's grown-up stuff, not for kids to meddle in."
Henrik's usually calm eyes had a hint of frustration. He and Cecelia weren't really fighting. It was more like
Cecelia seemed keen on picking fights.
Unlike Flora, who was all about lounging around and getting cozy with Connor, Cecelia was fiercely independent
and always seeking security. When they first talked about getting married, she kept dodging him. Connor and
Flora already had a kid, but Cecelia wasn't ready to tie the knot with him. She'd always change the subject.
To avoid him, she even took acting gigs out of town. One night, after having a bit too much to drink, he caught
her as she was heading to her room.

"Mr. Raul..."
See that? Heartless. They've been together for so long, and she still calls him Mr. Raul.
Knowing her fears, he stayed loyal and made their relationship public early on to give her the security she
craved. But despite all that, she was still hesitant, and he had to half-coax her into getting married. After they
tied the knot, she didn't want kids, and he was cool with that.
Connor treated Flora like a queen, and Henrik spoiled Cecelia just the same. He never stepped on her freedom,
was there for her acting gigs, and supported everything she wanted to do. In the entertainment world, no one
dared mess with Cecelia. Everyone knew she had Henrik, her doting husband, backing her up.
His unwavering love over the years finally gave Cecelia the confidence she lacked. But now... she was almost too
confident! And it was Henrik who felt insecure!
With Cecelia so focused on her career, Henrik felt neglected and was always trailing after her. This time, their
spat cfrom Cecelia taking a big TV show gig abroad for over two months without telling him. Henrik couldn't
join her because of work, and that really ticked him off. And Cecelia hadn't even bothered to call hduring
her taway!
The more Henrik thought about it, the more it riled him up.
"So, Uncle, you did have a fight with
Aunt!" Fiona said, resting her chin in her hands. "Here | thought you cjust to see me, but turn
were just escaping home."
"Watch your words! What do you mean by escaping home?"
Henrik frowned at her choice of words. "I also cto check on you. With you living alone in Cedarvale, I'm
always worried, and your dad
talks toabout you a lot?
"I'm doing just fine, who'd dare mess with me?"
Fiona chuckled, knowing she was the one who usually had the upper hand. She quickly changed the topic,
keeping Henrik from digging deeper. If he did, the whole Louise
kidnapping incident would cto light.
"Uncle, I'm off to the restroom."
With that, she made her swift exit.
Henrik watched her leave, then picked up his phone to make a call. "Can you find out what Miss has been
up to in Cedarvale these past months?"
Fiona slipped out of the private room to head to the restroom. Adam, who was outside for a smoke, caught her in
the act!
He darted back into the room and said to Jackson, "Guess who | just saw outside?"
"Your ex?" Jackson replied with little interest.
Adam: "..."
What the heck? Ex!
