Chapter 96

Nicole went to sit beside Henry. Everyone was belting out in the room, which caused quite a clamor.

Stretching his neck, Henry cast a glance at Nicole and pressed his hand to suppress his nervousness. At the thought of how she had abandoned him five years ago, he became resentful toward her. Nevertheless, he remembered Queenie's assignment for him, so he still endured his emotions.

Truth be told, Nicole still felt guilty toward Henry.

She turned her head aside to gaze at Henry, who seemed to have aged quite a bit as compared to five years ago. Pressing her lips, she then croaked, "I'm sorry."

Nicole did not know what else to say, so she could only apologize.
